    If you're looking for something to scratch your Megaman itch, the Megaman Battle Network Legacy Collection was released earlier this year, complete with online PVP. Playing the story mode in 2023 has been a trip, as it was so ahead of its time in terms of technology. Its strong sales hopefully hint at a revival of the franchise, given the clear demand for it.

    I've always loved how the PETs evolved with each generation. Considering how much technology has advanced, it would be fascinating to see their take on smartphones with 5G that can "jack in" anywhere with cell service. Perhaps they might even adopt an AR glasses approach, where everyone can see their Navis in the real world and we could battle each other anywhere.

    They could even go all out and have like a companion app for your iPhone that lets you talk to your AI-powered Navi that you could use in place of Siri!

    I don't watch any of the DC stuff but I would have actually seen this one if Ezra Miller wasn't such a monster. Even if I wasn't paying for it since I have AMC Stubs, I still couldn't support him them in anyway by contributing to the success of the movie. I'd rather watch the new Spiderverse movie or Past Lives again instead.

    There sure were a lot of spiders shown throughout the trailer, maybe we get an end credit scene with a spidey?

    After a '90s themed show, I've been listening to a lot of Real McCoy. Run Away and Another Night particularly have been on repeat a lot. My dad would listen to a lot of '90s dance music in the car growing up so I've been really nostalgic for it since hearing it again.

    It’s so odd to see someone in referee stripes waiting on the apron for a tag but I’m here for it!

    AEW is usually pretty good at catching people up with their Road To... series on YouTube before their big shows. For anyone interested I'll put some catch up videos here.

    5/16/23 - AEW Road to Austin - Jericho v Strong + Jay White v Ricky Starks & A Historic Trios Battle

    5/30/23 - AEW Road to San Diego - Kris Statlander's Epic Return + the Fallout from Double or Nothing This showcases the new TBS Champion's recovery from a real life ACL injury and her journey to get back in the ring and prove to people she's not injury prone after suffering her 2nd tear at only 27 years old. Statlander was red hot before tearing her ACL and was poised to get the championship. She was able to carry that momentum and beat the now 60-1 Jade Cargill and end her undefeated streak. The video also catches you up on TNT champion Wardlow, The Acclaimed's journey to towards the House of Black's trios titles, Orange Cassidy's outstanding International title run that has been 20+ straight amazing matches, and Bullet Club Gold feuding with Ricky Starks and FTR.

    6/13/23 - AEW Road to D.C. - The AEW World Champion MJF Collides w/ Adam Cole in an Eliminator Match

    I'll edit this description and add more later. I've almost exited out of this page twice switching between screens so I want to post it before I lose it.

    Welcome to the AEW Rampage discussion thread for June 16, 2023! We're coming to you this week from Washington D.C., following an action-packed Dynamite episode. Check out the chaotic and star-studded last 5 minutes here if you're considering giving AEW a shot!

    MATCH CARD

    Trios Match: United Empire (Will Ospreay, Jeff Cobb & Kyle Fletcher) vs. Best Friends/CHAOS (Trent Beretta, Chuck Taylor & Rocky Romero)

    The NJPW United Empire faction, led by Will Ospreay, is set to face off against Best Friends/CHAOS this week. Will Rocky, Trent?, and Chuckie T be able to withstand the powerful combination of Ospreay, Jeff Cobb, and Kyle Fletcher? Or will Ospreay's momentum going into Forbidden Door, coupled with the powerhouse Cobb, be enough to secure a victory?

    Mixed Tag Team Match: Jeff Jarrett, Jay Lethal & Karen Jarrett vs. Mark Briscoe, Papa Briscoe & Aubrey Edwards

    A unique mixed tag team match is on the cards, with the trio of Jeff Jarrett, Jay Lethal, and Karen Jarrett squaring off against Mark Briscoe, Papa Briscoe, and AEW Referee Aubrey Edwards, who is making her in-ring debut. Can the Briscoes and Edwards pull off a win against their more seasoned opponents, or will Sonjay Dutt's gang of miscreants interfere to gain the upper hand?

    Singles Match: Konosuke Takeshita vs. Bandido

    'El Hijo del Don Callis' and Bandido are set for an explosive singles match. Each wrestler brings a unique style to the ring, and it will be a spectacle to see these two top-tier talents clash head-on.

    Singles Match: Taya Valkyrie vs. Trish Adora

    In a high-stakes singles match, D.C.'s own Trish Adora will face off against Taya Valkyrie. After failing to capture the title from Jade Cargill, Valkyrie seems to have set her sights on the new TBS Champion, Kris Statlander. As she looks to make a statement, this could be an excellent opportunity for Trish to show what she's capable of.

    Additional Information

    • Venue: Washington D.C.
    • Airing On: TNT at 10pm Eastern

    I love the rounded design but much prefer how the current design extends all the way to the left instead of having a big empty margin.

    Yeah it feels like he's being thrown into the deep end lately to see if he can sink or swim. I was a big fan of his during the Jurassic Express days but haven't been impressed or felt invested in him since going single. The four pillars storyline didn't do him many favors. I can't explain it but there was one match of his when I noticed how choreographed his sequences looked. He reminds me of Lars Sullivan in the way that you could play multiple clips of him doing his sequence that ends with him flipping up and looking at the camera and all of the clips would look EXACTLY the same. It looks amazing at first and is great to get him over but after seeing it literally a hundred time it gets old quick.

    I haven't even been able to finish this comment because I've been glued to the screen with this ending! This last 10 minutes is going to be remembered for years!
