I love this ultimate control mode. I just Gorilla slammed john Cena over the top rope through 2 tables. And wrestlers sell so well, they can stay down for 30 sec or so. Finally you can put someone on a table, climb the ladder and elbow drop them through Sweet. I'm starting to look forward to it.

Even if WWE didn't give them a Bam Bam theme, how hard would it be to do an instrumental version, or his face theme, or just a ripoff like the LOW series, or just SOMETHING GENERIC? NOT F***ING LAZY SILENCE! Because putting stuff in without WWE's permission would get them in even more S*** which is the last thing they need at this point. EDIT- Things i've seen from videos: In the Create a Stable mode there are 2 variations of stables, Alliances and Tag Teams. Tag teams are where they come out together and alliances are where they're alligned with each other but use seperate entrances (i.e. Kane and Big Show) Which is why I listed a generic, THQ made theme amongst the possibilities, like Andre's theme last year. There's some great typical THQ logic....take a guy who NEVER had theme music in the WWE and make some for him, then, the next year, take someone else's away (Bam Bam) entirely, and have someone else (RVD) come out to a song he's never used. BRILLIANT! Cool about alliances/tag teams though.

One thing I remembered, my mandatory Chris Benoit/Chris Jericho tag title run is now impossible Just do what I'm going to do and make a Chris Jericho CAW. Trouble is he's got the kind of face that is really hard to replicate. I don't think I'm gonna embarrass Jericho by having him appear in this game.

Someone here said it was on the last WWE CD, which name escapes me cause I didnt buy it. Anyway, more bad news, I dont know if this has been posted yet, but, the CAW crotch blur is confirmed still in, and the following superstars are totally unplayable in season mode: Umaga, Daivari, Khali, all legends except Roddy Piper, and, supposedly FINLAY as well which is boggling to my mind, he's over and can speak english unlike Khali and (kayfabed) Umaga. This info is coming from someone in Europe who has the game and has been posting good info thus far so I take it as truth.

You know what makes me laugh? when IGN does all these "insider" PPVs of the most recent PPV, when half the people on the PPV weren't in the game. I think the No Mercy one would have to be just Helms v. Hardy, Regal v. Benoit, and the Fatal 4 Way, and the CS one would probably just be DX vs. nWo-but-not-really and the Triple Threat Match. Oh, and Kane vs. Umaga.

RVD doesn't even have his current theme? Whut the... he has his Shadow's Fall theme that he used a grand total of ONE times. I actually like that theme better. I still can't figure out why they didn't use that after RVD jumped to ECW.

Yeah, I actually think it would suit the ECW motif. But that seems to be the trend for the WWE, they debut a new theme at a PPV, then it goes away, unless it's the same theme by a different band (Big Show).

When in the world information on the Internet about GAMES became a commodity I'll never know. When they realized that marks would pay for it, I'm guessing. The whole "pay to get more" thing is what turned me off on IGN in the first place.

The whole "pay to get more" thing is what turned me off on IGN in the first place. Same here, and their coverage of SDvRaw 07 is just making it worse. Especially since they're like "yeah we can't help you cause we're busy playing our PS3s we didn't have to pay $600 for because we have these awesome jobs and you don't"

The only time I ever saw RVD use that theme was the Vengeance press conference. He's never even gotten to use it on TV. But I like it better than "One of a Kind", and it's definitely better than having his Alliance music again like in HCTP, so I'm good.
