WWE Wrestlemania XXI

WWE Wrestlemania XXI Xbox
Customer Review: WWE WrestleMania 21-Worst game….evr?
Look XBox has NO decent wrestling game its clear that THQ and even WWE don`t give a damn about XBox,its all about PS2 and its ultra SmackDown! series.
Remember how crap WWF RAW was,lame graphics,outdated roster no special matches,Not even the bloody cage match!
WWE RAW 2 was OK,But it was so outshined by HCTP and WMXIX that the game just looked so dull,Plus they left over some cons from the original game.
WWE WrestleMania 21 is purhaps the worst wrestling game this gen after WWF RAW,The online mode sucks,Glitches glitches,hype and did i say gliches yet?
So steer clear of any WWE game that comes out on XBox and probably XBox 360 as THQ,Yukes and WWE just don`t give a damn about u guys.
I say WWE,because WWE on their show usually put the latest WWE game on its commercial,But apart from once or twice,i`ve never seen an XBox WWE game broadcasted.

Classic Superstars 14″ Large Scale Figure Rowdy Roddy Piper

Perhaps no pro wrestling character from the 1980 s WWF glory days was more complex than Rowdy Roddy Piper. True, he did wrestle in the ring and gained renowned for his toughness, which more than compensated for a lack of acrobatics. But Piper was even better known as the host of “Piper s Pit”, where he would serve as talk show host, interviewing guests for a short spell before beating them senseless. And his expression, perfectly captured in this 14″ action figure version, always seemed to convey a mixture of malevolence and glee. The figure, released as part of a series honoring the wrestling stars of yesteryear, is more muscular than the real Piper was and has oversized fists and feet but it still has the requisite kilt and you still get the sense that it could smack you in the head with a folding chair at any moment. –Charlie Williams
Customer Review: a great conversation piece
I bought the Roddy Piper figure as a decorative piece for my home. Okay, I might have some strange (I prefer eclectic) tastes. I was a fan of Piper’s during his wrestling career and I have enjoyed his many movies. He is a larger than life character and this is a larger than normal action figure.
This figure depicts Roddy in what appears to be his late 80’s look. It comes with the mandatory plaid kilt.
It is sitting on my bookcase and it has sparked many conversations from men and women! Just looking at it brings me back to an innocent time, when I could just sit back and escape into a cartoon-like world of pro wrestling. More Info
