Mike Knox and CM Punk broke up and the only reason I could gather was because Kofi and Rey beat them, then Kane (enemy of Kofi) and an enemy of Rey attacked after the match. I guess they felt for storyline purposes their team was done, I don't know.

I also couldn't figure out why Kofi and Rey weren't in the list of tag team contenders, but I realized it was because their randomly formed pairing was not a "Tag Team Partner" team. I fixed that. Rock and JTG formed asimilar non-team team, did nothing, then it went away. Jericho and Regal were my tag champs but DX just beat them (and then HHH won a 4-way for the WWE title on the same show).

El Generico just beat WAYBAROT who is the number three contender for the WWE Championship, but he isn't in the rankings. Meanwhile, Husky Harris is feuding with stablemate Michael McGullicutty over the US Title.

I like it when the rankings get all odd when MITB or Rumble winners win the world title. Christian was world champion but had a #1 Contenders match for the IC title on the SmackDown before Extreme Rules. He then lost the title to Undertaker and despite being the last champion, this dropped him to like, #9 in the top 10.

I played some more last night and saw a bunch of new scenes and had some fun.

The weirdest scene had to be to start a 6-man tag. I had my CAW building toward an IC title match with Dolph and at the same time, building for a tag title shot with Zack Ryder. I made a team entrance for me and Ryder together which is one where we walk out together and do a high five with each other. So, to further our tag rankings and my IC ranking/Dolph feud, I did a six-man with my CAW/Ryder/Dashing Cody Rhodes against Dolph/MVP/Mark Henry. Zack Ryder came out by himself, doing the team entrance. I thought my CAW just was having issues not showing up as Ryder still high-five thin air. Then Cody didn't come out, so no Smoke and Mirrors, so I was pissed. MVP/Henry came out, then Dolph came out, then during Dolph's entrance, it cut to a shot of Henry/MVP walking down the ramp and the CAW and Cody ran out and attacked them. Played out weird but I still marked.

I progressed along and the CAW had the IC belt, Ryder had the US belt and our team had the tag belts. On the next show, Cody Rhodes wound up in a Triple Threat #1 Contender Match with Undertaker and Swagger. I played that and next time I play, its the Pay Per View, so DCR is about to be the World Heavyweight Champion.

who is the World Heavyweight Champion that will be losing to Cody Rhodes.

Also my friend has Beer Money Wanted which is a stable led by Storm, with Rhoode and Braden Walker as the tag team. I can only imagine after I left that Beer Money Wanted beatdown Ryder and Storm is gonna get his IC title back and aw shit I need this game.

I still hate cage matches in Smackdown vs Raw. I was playing Universe mode the other day and the match was Christian vs. MVP vs. Big Show vs Kane. I was Christian and was dominating the match, MVP started to climb and I was stuck in a move motion and by the time I got out of the motion and got to MVP he was starting to climb over the cage so I had no way to catch him. It just really pissed me off that MVP was hurt (he was holding his head) but was able to get out of the cage so easily.

I also miss mashing the A button to get out of the cage or kick out of a pinfall or submission.

Does the cage even work this year? I dragged someone over to do the head rake deal but I ended up crotching him on the ropes like a normal match. Can't seem to do the irish whip into the cage, and pressing up when their on the turnbuckles - the former way of doing cage based grapples, like exiting the door from the right corner - just lifts them to the top like a normal match.

Maybe I'll consult the book about it.

Cody Rhodes is going to beat Big Show for the World Heavyweight Championship, as show beat Rey at the last PPV.

I'm pissed at myself because after I won the US Title for Ryder and the IC title for the CAW, I just kept hitting CAW, forgetting I built Ryder up as the number 1 contender for the World Belt too, meaning Cena is still champ and he moved on to feuding with Edge for Extreme Rules.

Beer Money Wanted sounds sweet. All the wrestlers I downloaded are fighting among themselves for the most part, as there's been a lot of Bryan against Slater and Skip because of me setting enemies and allies up. Its funny because I put Cena as an enemy so Cena, the WWE Champ has been on Superstars a lot fighting in triple threats and tag matches with those guys. Kaval seems like the guy doing the most as he's getting involved and in a lot of other matches, although Bryan is ranked so high he's won some big matches when he's gotten in there with guys like Edge. The Tyler Reks I downloaded I've only seen fight Kaval and then come to the ring with Shad when Shad fought JTG in a CRYME TYME EXPLODES match.

Yeah using the cage as a weapon works a lot better this year.

Unfortunately, I don't think you can, which stinks as that entrance would be great for others without the clock/stick combo.

The crawling would have been great for my CAW, The Violater but it just looks weird with the clock and the voodoo stick.

I was actually explaining why it doesn't seem to, so again, I guess I'll consult the book later.

Yeah, you can. When you select it'll ask if you want to keep the props.

That's cool, I hadn't seen that before. I will have to look for it.

One thing that is kind of weird is I just realized after waiting so long for the game and playing it for a couple weeks now, that Khali isn't in this game. Not that I'm clamoring to play as Khali, but seems like an odd person to be left out of the game.

Dashing Fellas is my new favourite thing ever. What started out as a simple Vince and Cody tag team ended up a 3 man stable with Sheamus, then I manually added Jack Swagger. Their Duo entrance is Vince and Shane (watching Cody dance around like Shane McMahon while Vince was Vince was quite amusing) and their trio entrance is the Spirit Squad entrance - also quite amusing.

Oh yeah, I noticed they have the same mistake with Dolph that they did last year - he's announced being from Hollywood, CA when it should be Florida.

It's actually wierd.. sometimes it's right. I've heard Chimmel say CA but I think I've heard Roberts say FL.

I don't know why they don't have a "create an arena" part of the game. They had that in WWF Attitude for the N64, but that was the only time you ever had the option of customizing stuff like that.

Barrett's Charisma is too low. Only 80? Fuck that. He's 100.

That was honestly the best feature in Attitude. I loved making the purple and gold Royal Rumble scheme.

I made a DX arena with green and black ropes. I'm not sure why I did it because I wasn't a big fan of DX, but I just thought it was cool how I could customize the lighting, part of the entrance, the ring ropes, etc. You'd think putting an option like that in the game wouldn't be too terribly difficult, but they've never gotten around to it. It's too bad that the gameplay sucked compared to WCW/NWO Revenge...but it was cool making a Papa Shango CAW and teaming him with Gangrel.

Fire Pro Returns had this feature as well. You could actually put logos from the paint tool onto the ring mat which is pretty rad. I definitely think that SVR should adopt this feature.

Yeah, I definitely dig that. You can change the rope, post, mat, apron, & skirt color and then plop a logo right in the middle if you'd like. My old school Royal Rumble ring is pretty badass with the purple ring skirts and perfect logo some guy on one of the FPR fan sites did a while back.
