    1) Red Light, Green Light
    ***************************
    Rock and Roll!

    Super-official permission came in yesterday with regard to our little side project.
    The local media around here is also interested in what we're planning to do. Thing is, we have more than enough false starts under our belt and I don't want another. So we're going to wait until we know for 100% certain that not only can we start but actually finish this project before announcing anything official. When we do, you'll be floored. Count on it. I'm a hopeless optimist and dreamer and even I'm in a bit of disbelief that this is actually panning out. It's not a game, really, but everything we learned about making games will be put to good use.

    I gotta say, we're excited. This is a wrestling fan's dream gig or at least it is for me.
    Eric is a mark like me and he's excited, too.



    2) Smackdown vs. Meh 2009
    ****************************
    Wow, despite improved review scores this year's Smackdown vs. Raw saw sales decline by 22 percent. And the Great and Powerful THQ actually sounds worried:

    3) The Wrestler, Bret Hart
    *********************************
    Considering the lyrics of this song from The Wrestler, what does it say about Bret Hart that he would post this video on his official website?

    4) Just the Best there Was?
    **************************
    TMZ called this "some of the most depressing video we ever shot". All I see is a man handling an ignorant douche with some quiet and humble class. You decide:

    In the meantime and in between time, that's it, another edition of Wrestling Gamers United.
