WWE 2k16 Universe Mode: Intro

Later than expected, the WWE 2k16 Universe Mode is set to finally debut. Happy New Year, by the way. Sorry I haven't been that active, but I wanted to end the year on a positive note, and my first NXT Takeover recap was especially positive. Below is the outline for my universe mode, which will begin shortly.



Structure
The structure of this series is quite a bit different since I first discussed it, so this is pretty important. There will be three shows per in game week, RAW, Smackdown and NXT. Each show will have five matches, 4 shows per month with one pay per view. Once we get further into the series, I'll introduce more shows, brand-specific ppvs, NXT Takeovers and the like, but I want to make sure the series is going over well before then.

Shows

 RAW
Titles- World Heavyweight, Intercontinental, World Tag Team, Women's(shared with Smackdown)
Airs On- Monday

Smackdown
Titles- WWE Championship, United States, WWE Tag Team, Women's(shared with RAW)
Airs On- Thursday

NXT
Titles- NXT Championship, Light Heavyweight, NXT Tag Team, NXT Women's
Airs On- Wednesday

As you can see, every show is equal in terms of titles. One world/major, one midcard, one tag team, and two women's titles. I would have had three, but I don't have a big enough starting roster of female wrestlers. Speaking of rosters, it will mainly start out as the default roster. There will be a few CAWS, but nothing outrageous. Most of them will be for NXT, as they are going to have a very small roster otherwise. Pretty much every new CAW will debut on NXT, except for guys like CM Punk, Alberto Del Rio, Rey Mysterio, guys with plenty of WWE tenure. I would go into further detail, but like most of my series, it'll be easier to understand once you actually see the product.

Odds and Ends
I'm going to start a post with the list of champions and what not in this series once it starts....It should be easy enough to figure out, but every title will start vacant.......Most retired/dead wrestlers will be treated as such, with some exceptions(HBK, Edge, likely Mick Foley).....The universe mode itself will begin in April, right after Wrestlemania.......There is likely to never be a WWE draft.

So that's that. If I missed anything, it'll likely show up in the first post of this series. I'm looking forward to a great year, and hopefully this series will be going strong by the end of it.

-Henry

(Edit: I've gotten enough female CAWS to give Smackdown the Divas Title, with Raw keeping the Women's Title.)

Henry's Universe Mode: 2017 WWE Draft

We are here today to conduct the first ever WWE Draft, where Raw and SmackDown competitors will learn the fates heading into Season 3 of Henry's Universe Mode. In this post, I will give an explanation of the rules, before unveiling each draft pick and giving you my thoughts. Enjoy! Rules -Each brand will have five draft picks, ten picks total. -Champions are not eligible to be drafted. -Tag teams/stables can be drafted as a unit or individuals, depending on what the GM wants and what the wrestler wants. -Thanks to winning Brand Warfare, SmackDown will get the first pick, while Raw will get the last pick. The 2017 WWE Draft begins..........right now! Pick #1- SmackDown selects Brock Lesnar What a way to start of the draft, as the Beast Incarnate in heading to Tuesday Nights. Since losing to Samoa Joe a few weeks ago on Raw, we haven't seen anything from Brock Lesnar. This move will certainly have most of the SmackDown roster looking over their shoulder. ...

With Fastlane just under two weeks away, we have a big night in store here on Raw. Sasha Banks looks to earn another title shot, the tag champs are in non-title action and in the main event, for the first time since winning the Royal Rumble, Samoa Joe is in action when he faces Mark Henry. Universe Mode Monday Night Raw February 20th, 2017 Location: Anchorage, AK Itami and Balor vs #DIY The tag champs were in action to open Raw, and their opponents were the debuting Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa, #DIY.

South Park "Not Funny" Review

Good night, amateur trolls that trolled a troll and trolled themselves into a troll, brothers. With one episode to go in the season, South Park has remained consistently funny and on-point with their humor, though I worry about how their going to wrap all of this up. There are a good six to seven ongoing storylines right now, and only one episode to finish off a few of them. There was no clear focus this week, but I'll start where the episode ended, with Gerald's troll-based storyline. It's pretty satisfying to see the Troll Hunter's massive revelation; that he is, in fact, just another troll, bent on world destruction. Even Gerald couldn't find the humor in his master plan, as the Troll Hunter is truly in a league of his own. With the world on the brink of war, the trolling has truly begun, as the Troll Hunter went to work on his own employees and the other trolls, though why they had to be naked for that is beyond me. Kyle is always a sucker for saving the ...
