Legendary professional wrestler Sting is ?100 percent confirmed? to make a much-anticipated appearance at a pay-per-view event Sunday, according to a 1992 recording on the WCW Hotline.

 
Wrestling commentator Tony Shiavone confirmed on the hotline (1-900-909-9900) that the ?rampant rumors are true,? and that the Stinger will defend his WCW World Heavyweight Championship against Lex Luger at SuperBrawl II.
 
Fans who called the hotline ? at a fee of $2.99 for the first minute and $1.99 for each additional minute ? were universally overjoyed to get official confirmation of Sting?s appearance via the fast, high-tech medium of a recorded phone message.
 
Rumors of Sting?s appearance at the pay-per-view had previously been printed in Dave Meltzer?s Wrestler Observer Newsletter, which provides the most up-to-date wrestling news and gossip on a biweekly basis.
 
The confirmation of Sting?s impending pay-per-view title defence caused a stir among the tape-trading community, since fans who have a cable de-scrambler box will record the event on VHS cassettes to mail among their friends.
 
The WCW Hotline also told fans to keep an eye on an up-and-coming rookie named ?Stunning? Steve Austin, but the Wrestling Observer Newsletter insists he?ll never amount to anything.

Survivor Series predictions...

 

Pre-show: Fandango vs. They haven't said yet, but ###### it, I'm going with whoever it is.

Divas' SS match: Alicia Fox, Emma, Naomi and Natalya vs. Paige, Cameron, Layla and Summer Rae - Still feels like this is gonna be the bathroom break match, just an extra-long one.

WWE Tag Team Championship: Gold and Stardust © vs. The Usos vs. Los Matadores vs. Miz and Mizdow

Dean Ambrose vs. Bray Wyatt

WWE Divas Championship: AJ Lee © vs. Nikki Bella

Survivor Series match: Team Cena (John Cena, Dolph Ziggler, Big Show, Erick Rowan and Ryback) vs. Team Authority (Seth Rollins, Kane, Mark Henry, Rusev and Luke Harper) - With the extra stipulation tacked onto the match on SmackDown this week (if Team Authority win, Team Cena except Cena himself gets fired), they pretty much gave away the result.

I'll say you get 1 of those right. So far, you're at zero.

Even with what happened in the main event, this was still my favourite moment...

1/6. I'm glad I don't bet on my predictions. :P

    • UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers

      By Skyfrog · Posted

      Age 16, old enough to get a full-time job, your own bank account, a passport, get married, even join the military and go to war. But talking to your friends on the internet? Oh hell no!

      I remember when all games had demos; it was a normal thing, not a limited time promotion.
    • Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update by Taras Buria Today, Playground Games released a big Forza Horizon 6 update with a long list of fixes, patches, and balancing tweaks that the studio promised earlier. Version 375.327 is now available on Steam, Microsoft Store, and Xbox, offering users improvements for AI, audio, design, performance, road discovery, upgrades, visuals, online play, and more. Some of the most notable changes in the Series 2 update include rebalanced drivatars, particularly their difficulty and race start behavior. As such, the game should be more balanced on higher difficulty levels, and AI cars should not shoot out when the race starts as if they have rocket boosters. Speaking of difficulty, developers nerfed Drag Tires physics for a more expected and realistic behavior. They are no longer the go-to option for record-breaking times in road racing, and all leaderboard entries with drag tires will be removed. Completionists will also be glad to get a new feature that lets you see road discovery percentage in each region, which should make discovering all roads easier while keeping it quite challenging and interesting (I spent quite a long time finding the last road). Festival Playlist is also getting some much-needed fixes, including patches for bugs that allowed completing Seasonal Jobs ahead of time or where weekly challenges would not unlock for some players. Developers will retroactively give reward points to all who could not complete all challenges due to these bugs. Other changes include changes to Horizon Play progression so that it is easier to reach Level 100, audio improvements on lower-spec devices, fixes for visual glitches, including pixelated smoke, and more. Developers also addressed the currently non-working Eliminator, an online mode gamers used to farm credits with a Hummer EV exploit. Playground Games plans to re-enable it soon. As a gesture of goodwill, players will get a free McLaren Sabre. Those who used the exploit will not be banned, but developers plan to roll back credits to a maximum of 10M for all who farmed credits using the exploit. You can find the complete changelog for the latest Forza Horizon 6 update here.
