February Wrasslin' |OT| This is where the big boys play, huh?

Has some really bad opinions on womens wrestling (Becky best wrestler in the world, and then saying Japanese wrestlers do not count). For someone that is supposed to be a "journalist" he is always picking fights with wrestlers, trying to be edgy with his opinions (the Omega case).
You undersold that horrid opinion
Bix said there was an argument that Becky is the best female performer EVER
And then when people countered with actual logical choices (mostly AJW talent), he said those didn't count because "you don't speak their language so you can't tell me they were good promos"
Like legit one of the worst takes I've ever seen and an even worse defense
He's definitely the Gawker version (in the worst way) of a wrestling dirtsheet writer. Sometimes he'll highlight some awful shit in the industry but is frequently sweating the small stuff while trying to make it big stuff and also quite the shit stirrer.
Goddamn, that is some awful awful awful shit. What did he have to say about Kenny (I'm assuming it had to do with that wrestler Omega booked/was friends with who turned out to be a scumbag)?
Becky is fine, but Rebecca needs to worry about getting the shit beat out of her.
Damn. I liked the Dead Wrestler of the Week, but I was not aware of the shitstirrer stuff.
I remembered it was bad but not that bad, shit.
That and also tried to paint Omega as a racist for his gym comment.
Syn Sophia may still have the engine, but I'd be willing to bet anyone who actually worked on the AKI wrestling games is long gone from the company by now. Last I heard, several of them went to Yuke's (not that it shows).
Omega released an apology stating that he was unaware of the some guy's past that he allowed on a show as he was part of the subcontracted crew/gym that helped set up the ring and event. Bix played the usual Gawker-style selective reaction of "your apology isn't good enough because of x, y, z..."
He then went on a few tirades on Twitter and in articles blaming Omega for EVIL being concussed. Omega and others refuted that claim only for Bix to dig in his heels and then go on a petty rant of how Omega isn't among the best wrestlers in the world. If I remember correctly, he ranked Natalya at #25 ahead of Omega.
Long story short, he's a very, very petty shit stirrer.
step 1) literally re-release no mercy with new models and aew wrestlers
step 2) hire the insane no mercy hackers to put every move imaginable into the new game
step 3) 12 million copies sold
This doesn't surprise me a bit as an alumni of RSPW at the same time Bix posted there.
Quite a few people mentioned Aki Evolution/Aki Club 64 after this Cody tweet in January
Not a single wrestling game has quite lived up to the old Aki titles. Sorry Fire Pro, not even you.
worst news
best news
Oh my god imagine even just a reskin of one of the old games ported to switch
I'd never play anything else
In the glorious family of counter truth being spread and twitter being so stupid, i'm so sick of the narrative of KO stealing Kofi's chance lol..
This is amazing how people can see the reverse of the truth in any situation.
The actual story here, for real, factually, is that KO was planned as the WM contender and Kofi took his spot for it lol. It went from who knows (maybe ali) at fastlane and KO at mania, to Kofi at fastlane suddenly, and Ko at mania, to the switch.
And hey, KO has never had a world title match at mania neither, and we all know how much he's sensible about it, and was just said "you ate shit for 1 year, you just signed for 5 years with us, it's time for us to give you something back after a 5 month injury break" then "ha my bad Kev, people want kofi since last week, it's not going to be this year for you"
And people are like "Booohoo KO white privilege, he doesn't deserve to take Kofi's spot, this is a shame!!" -__-

You'll get a game where you can dress Kenny and play some rhythm mini games.
Dead Wrestler of the Week was David Shoemaker, who was at Grantland and is now at The Ringer.
Tanahashi thinking TK O'Ryan is the next big thing is not exactly encouraging me to rethink my Tana sucks stance lol
Holy shit Vince is really swingin for the fences trying to turn around the ratings!
Next he will hire the creative team behind Total Bellas to handle 205 Live.
Jarrett is suing Anthem to try and get possession back of the GFW tape library (along with demanding that they rebrand their Global Wrestling Network because he argues it is using the GFW image that he owns), but Anthem is saying they don't have the tapes anymore because they had to delete them to free up hard drive space
Literally none of that is a joke. That's all really happening in court right now.
I came in wanting Yuka in an AKI game but I'm also okay with this.
We need more grump Pac with pup pics in our lives.
Absolutely not!
Can't wait to recreate the best version of Kenny in a game.

Huh, Dave mentioned that at one point over the past year, the plan for WM was Ronda vs. Natalya
Ronda's WM opponent over the course of went from Charlotte to Natalya back to Charlotte to Becky and then ultimately now to Becky and Charlotte both.

Wow, you can change the ownership of the company but you can't change the carny way from TNA/Impact Wrestling
