Pro-Wrestling On My Mind

Or, at least they love his entrance music. Lance Archer's I mean. "Who wants to break the Guinness World Record for most characters killed off in a single video game?" - Someone a Square Enix on the FFXVI team, presumably I'm playing "Final Fantasy XVI" and, good Lord, EVERYBODY DIES! You cannot get attached to anybody. You meet a character and, legit minutes later, DEAD!
