Blog Update- January 2018

Considering how often I've been needing to post updates over the past few months, I'm thinking of just making this a monthly thing. Anyway, here's what's happening with my blog this month.




Henry's Universe Mode

First and foremost, I think I may have made a huge mistake when I brought Henry's Universe Mode content back onto my blog. I was very satisfied with the way things ended at Summerslam, but over the few months afterward, I began to have doubts. I drew out my decision on what content I intended to make for 2k18, and because of that, I really wasn't ready to start producing any series on the game after release. The posts have been sporadic, and not really my best work, and I can honestly say that I'm not really looking forward to posting anything. For me, the most important aspect of this blog is that I enjoy making everything I produce, and that just isn't the case. So for now, for a second time, Henry's Universe Mode is cancelled once more.


Other 2k18 Content

The good news on this front is that during the time while I was still trying to figure out what I would do for the game, I came up with a few other ideas. Over the next few weeks, I'm going to work on fleshing out a few series ideas, and hopefully I'll be able to find something that sticks. Just be patient- 2k18 content will be returning to the blog sooner rather than later.


Everything Else

Because of this decision, January is set to be a pretty quiet month for my blog, with no main series currently scheduled. So, I'm going to take this opportunity to work on some different content. If you follow me on Twitter(@htk0215), you'll have heard that a review of New Japan's Wrestle Kingdom 12 is coming soon, hopefully tomorrow. I've also talked about doing some old school wrestling pay-per-view reviews, and now would be a good chance to start doing those. Who knows- I've got a bunch of ideas stored up in reverse, so we'll just have to see what sticks.


That's all for now. Hopefully this post clarified what the month of January means for my blog, and answered any of your questions.

Henry's Universe Mode #231: WrestleMania II (Part 3)

Finn Balor vs The Undertaker Finn Balor felt the full force of the strikes of The Undertaker in the early going, eating rights and lefts to the skull. The Undertaker continued to lay into Balor, dumping him to the floor with a clothesline, then following up with his vintage suicide dive! After a brief skirmish on the outside, the Deadman got destructive, grabbing the Demon's throat and driving him through the announce table with a chokeslam! It was here that The Undertaker allowed Finn Balor a chance to just give up and concede defeat, but Balor wasn't having any of it. Finn got his second wind, countering an attempted chokeslam to connect with a reverse DDT, then the shotgun dropkick in the corner. Up top, Finn connected with Coup de Grace! 1........................2.......................but it's going to take a lot more to put The Undertaker away, especially at WrestleMania. Balor laid in some shots, busting The Undertaker open, but that proved to be a huge mistake. ...

American Dad "Stompe Le Monde" Review

You know, I once tried to make it in musical theater. If only I had watched this episode beforehand, I would've known I needed a leather jacket to truly make it. Alas, those dreams are for a more pretentious soul than mine. "Stompe Le Monde" is a wild episode of American Dad, one that starts with Stan's previously unknown uncle dying and ends with wanton destruction of many Sonic Drive-Ins. It's a crazy a journey as it sounds, one that left me just struggling to keep up. The family to use the new inheritance to travel to New York City, but Stan quickly blows the money on the rights to Stomp, which is apparently a real musical. The whole town of Langley is very excited to see the new show, but Stan has no idea what he's doing, never once hiring a director or even rehearsing. Why this only came up literally minutes before opening is anyone's guess. The Smith Family is forced to go on the run, and are attacked by many ferocious coyotes off-screen. In ye...

American Dad "The Hand that Rocks the Rogu" Review

American Dad as a show is definitely not afraid to get a little freaky, and nothing is more evident than the existence of Rogu, Roger's tumor that became a character himself in "Persona Assistant". Rogu primarily works as a character because he stays in the background, but this week, he takes a starring role in one of the weirdest American Dad episodes to date. "The Hand that Rocks the Rogu" has little in the way of traditional plot structure, and can only barely be considered an episode at all. It's more a collection of funny and bizarre skits, with a few running plot points that end up forming some sort of resolution. Steve wants to become a babysitter, but Francine says he's not ready, so he needs to prove himself to her. He does that by taking care of Rogu, as Roger is off for a night of NSFW activities. Steve is instructed not to let Rogu have candy or screentime, but violates both rules almost immediately. It turns out that Rogu multiplies w...
