Pretty sure the NXT Versions have been sold out for a long time. There were only 50,000 of them for everywhere. I looked online to preorder last week and everywhere was sold out (Game Stop, Best Buy, Amazon)

I'm hoping maybe we'll be able to download others from CC but I doubt it if we dont have the NXT version.

I got off work, walked into my local best buy and they had 3 NXT editions on the shelf. Scooped one up.

Breaking News: WWE Reportedly Purchasing TNA In Full

WWE is allegedly very close to buying not only the TNA library, but TNA in itself as well. Obviously, with WWE Network, the TNA library could be a nice resource, a nice asset. Now, you know, TNA does have some talents I’m sure WWE would like to have, and now with this they can now have any superstar that is under a guaranteed contract, and now I hear that WWE and TNA have had talks about buying the library and that a deal is imminent.

It was something I debated on doing.

However, I think there is one storyline specifically that will make it worth it to make this decision. Stay tuned

Triple H: I bet none of you thought you would be seeing me here tonight, did you? Well I didn't think I would be on TV for a long, long time, but I have an an...













Ric Flair: Hold on there buddy boy. Game, it is so damn good to see you! I know you are out here to make a handy dandy announcement, but so am I! I have always told you, to be the man, you got to beat the man. Game, I want one more run. I know at my age I should not be in the ring alone, so that is why I want to throw my hat into the tag team title tournament that is being run here on Monday Night Raw!



Triple H: Well. This is interesting. The reason I came out here tonight is because a very good friend of mine was interested in making a comeback, and wanted to announce it here on Raw. However, he did not want to come back to a regular singles role, he wanted to explore the tag team division to sink his toes in at first. I think we have a deal Ric, you can return as long as you team with this superstar.




Ric Flair: Any friend of the Game's is a friend of mine, bring this man right on out!












Shawn Michaels: Hey San Antonio.



*Crowd is still erupting*




Shawn Michaels: Yes, it is true. I am done being retired. I went out in an amazing fashion against the Undertaker, but man that itch has not went away since! I thought if I camouflaged it in...well, camouflage it would help it go away. Nope. Maybe spending more time with my family...well I love every minute of that, but nope. I need to wrestle, I want to wrestle, I am a wrestler and nobody can ever take that away from me! I did my time away now twice, and I am back and I am going to get my toes wet again. Nature Boy, you better be ready because we are taking this youngin' tag division right on!



Ric Flair: That fire that burns in your eye, that passions that flows through your veins. Shawn, that never goes away. We are back, and we will show everyone why we are Hall of Famers. Woooooooo!
