Scott,
I just came across this genius product and figured the usual suspects on the blog would have a blast with it:
http://shop.wwe.com/WWE-Edition-Monopoly-Board-Game/W06390,default,pd.html
To me the jokes on this one just write themselves. Personally I think they should change the name of the "jail" tile to "Midcard purgatory" or "wwe superstars"
You have to think that the cover of the game is a meme just waiting to happen.
Hit the glass ceiling and go straight to mid-card jail. Do not collect any titles along the way.
ReplyDeleteWithout even looking at the game board, I bet $50 they have John Cena in the Boardwalk-equivalent spot...
ReplyDeleteHeath Slater = Baltic Avenue or GTFO
ReplyDeleteYou are correct. And Rock is Park Place. Naturally, Triple H's spot is higher than the Undertaker, Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels and Mankind spots.
ReplyDeleteAJ and Dolph in the Baltic/Mediterranean spots... yep, laughs a plenty here.
ReplyDeleteI bet Zack Ryder's spot represents baltic avenue......and instead of "Go to Jail", it should read "Go to the Kiss my ass Club".....Luxury Tax? = "You are saddled with the Red Rooster gimmick. Pay the bank......never mind. Just turn in all your money. Game over"
ReplyDeleteDidn't shake hands with the right person. Proceed directly to wrestler's court and then to mid card purgatory.
ReplyDeleteZack would barely make the WWE Superstars version of this game, methinks. And 3MB better be in the Green, with Kofi and ??? in the Dark Blue...
ReplyDelete(Ziggler's on the main board, so he's not available.)
I'm actually shocked they had Punk in the "top" green spot, "above" HHH. One would think those two would have been swapped...
ReplyDeleteJail = InterContinental Champion
ReplyDeleteChance: Move to Triple H, eat a pedigree, pay $1000 in dues to get "elevated".
ReplyDeleteOr Punk in a "yellow" spot because he's a coward.
ReplyDelete#ObligatoryPunkDig
Go to jail = take initiation "shower" with JBL
ReplyDeleteSwap Punk/HHH/Michaels around? I could see that...
ReplyDeleteForget to extend Lanny Poffo your fucking condolences? Go straight to jail and do not pass the HOF ceremonies.
ReplyDeleteThe playing pieces are a face, heel, and tweener...which I can only imagine what that looks like.
ReplyDeleteMymonopoly.com is coming soon, which means, also soon, will be Blog Otteropoly
ReplyDeleteOf course it is, because Triple H was the backbone of the Attitude Era! The rest were supporting players. Except for Foley. He didn't do shit.
ReplyDeletePlease contain only JBL dollars.
ReplyDeleteDidn't McMahon already win this game in 2001?
ReplyDelete"Go to jail" in Bret's world:
ReplyDelete"Go to WCW. Go directly to WCW. Do not bring heat. Do not participate in main-events"
