The game sounds interesting, and I like the name Power Slam. I am looking forward to this title. I remember watching Hulk Hogan and Rowdy Roddy Piper on Saturday afternoons when I was knee high to a halfling. I think I stopped watching after the stone cold steve austin and the Rock feud.

Basically, originally it was just going to be an updated version of Piledriver. However, as time went on the game evolved, became much better, and is moving in a direction entirely different from the original intent which is apt to happen with us crazy programmers. That's not such a bad thing. the current version is more like one of Jim Kitchen's sports games with Sapi for play by play action, pull down context menus, contains entrance music, crowd ambiance, start and ending bells, and so forth. In short, the game is no longer Piledriver per say, and is completely something new which I think needs its own title. Here is the problem. There are a number of WWE games on the market for the XBox, Play Station, PSP etc and I definitely don't want to get into entanglements over copyrights if I use a game title like WWE Raw Verses Smackdown, WWE All Stars, WWE Legends, and so forth. Generic names like Wrestling League Manager and so on just don't appeal to me. Piledriver, as mentioned above, is for all intents and purpose a different game which I don't want confused with my creation. So any thoughts or ideas on a cool title for the wrestling game I'm working on?
