Well, Sid's certainly full of ######, isn't he? At least the show got an upgrade in the end.

 

Sounds like Sid is one of those "it is never my fault" people.  Pay the damn ticket, get a passport.  I haven't flown in a plane for 30 years, but even *I* knew about the new travel laws about some states now require a passport.

Nice new gallery on WWE.com showing current wrestlers with classic championships: http://www.wwe.com/gallery/current-superstars-classic-titles-photos Here's a few...

So I'm thinking of watching some NJPW stuff now. Cuz WK12 looked awesome as hell. I know NJPW has been doing great work for years now, but man some of those matches looked amazing. And from all the top 10 matches of the year lists out now for 2017 and like, all 3 of the Omega vs. Okada (I think it was Okada) matches are in those lists lol I think Dave Meltzer game one of those matches a 6 star rating out of 5....so yeah good stuff.

Yeah, he went a little overboard with the ratings in 2017; you wait 23 years for another 6* match and then three of them turn up at once (plus a 5.75* match that he probably docked a quarter-star just because Naito was in it instead of Okada). :p

Everyone's still waiting on his ratings for WK12; there's bound to be at least two 5*'s in there.

 

At the very least, we know how big the show was: 34,995 paying fans in attendance and over 43,000 in total at the Tokyo Dome; big jump from the last few years - almost certainly fueled by foreign fans flying in to see Jericho vs. Omega - and the biggest wrestling show in Japan in ~15 years. https://www.f4wonline.com/japan/njpw-wrestle-kingdom-12-draws-34995-paid-tokyo-dome-249246 NJPW World had a hell of a jump, too, going from ~70k to ~95k subscribers in just 2 days for WK12; the same time last year, they went from ~50k to ~60k. And to top it all off for now, they recently announced their first ever shows in Australia.

    • Bose QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 headphones are down to lowest price in over a month by Taras Buria Bose's second-gen QuietComfort Ultra headphones are premium over-ear headphones with noise cancellation, but right now, you can save 16%, thanks to a discount that brought the headphones to a new lowest price in over a month. While the general look and aesthetics remain unchanged compared to the previous gen, the Gen 2 features redesigned wear-detection sensors, which accurately pause your music the moment you take them off. Additionally, the headphones now support lossless audio via a direct USB-C wired connection, letting you enjoy uncompressed sound when plugged into your laptop or phone. There is also spatial audio support (works wirelessly) for a more immersive audio experience and improved noise cancellation, which makes the QuietComfort Ultra go-to headphones for many users on long flights or other scenarios when they need to isolate themselves from the surrounding noise. The QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 2) also features Bluetooth Multipoint for seamless switching between two devices at once. As for battery life, you get up to 30 hours on a single charge (up to 23 hours when using spatial audio). Besides good audio quality and noise cancellation, the headphones should be comfortable to wear, thanks to the lightweight 250-gram design and soft protein-leather ear pads. The QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 are available in four colors, and all five are now available at the lowest price: Bose QuietComfort Ultra Bluetooth Headphones (2nd Gen) - $379 | 16% off on Amazon This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Started implementing weapons! Here's a little sneak peek! 👀 Animation was done inside of Unreal Engine using Control Rig! Really useful tool, I don't have to go back and forth between Blender and UE, you can basically make tweaks while the game is running.
    • Keep in mind Intuit has lobbied like crazy to keep taxes complicated so they can continue to sell tax software. They also got caught hiding their legally mandated free version so they could release a second one that pushed countless people into charges they didn't need to pay to file. Intuit leads the charge on inventing problems so they can sell you the solution and disrespecting you in the process.
    • Oddly, there was a time that UFC games were culturally relevant, largely because of the graphics and gameplay that was different than the norm. But it seems like as the sport grew in popularity, gaming outlets stopped talking about the games.
