WWE 2K23 MyGM Mode Episode 2: An Old Friend Returns... | Monday Night War S3

[@Troglodytic_Wallflower]

Pete fussing about not getting the powercard, and then IMMEDIATELY booking Medical Bill (the reason he didn't get the powercard) was just pure gold, plain and simple. I absolutely love the series, guys! Thanks for the wonderful content!

[@Tcarter1115]

Chopper screwed Chopper.

[@sadmanhaque6855]

He still hasn't realized it 😂

[@midwestent.7010]

Rumor has it he's still fussing about that power card lol

[@MartyRusev]

As someone who hasn't played the game and I guess haven't been paying too much attention, can you explain to me why this is working like this? Or not working properly for Pete? 😂

[@danielharris6867]

​@@MartyRusev Pete had done his goal but then he signed medical bill and it meant he had no longer done it, his goal was book your least popular superstar and when he signed medical bill he became his least popular and he didn't book him so failed goal. Sorry it rambled I'm really tired and couldn't think how to say it any shorter.

[@codyssmith73]

When will Pete realize Medical Bill cost him that power card?

[@MillennialViking]

my money is he'll address it once they record more episodes.

[@RyanXander06]

I think i read a comment in the first episode that they already recorded 5 episodes (so until the PLV) So i guess ep 6?

[@Jestylor6]

He Addressed it on a podcast or video already...

[@jeffreybridges3210]

​@@Jestylor6 yea but not in the series itself. Not everyone is on the patreon to see the extra behind the scenes or discussion videos

[@Jestylor6]

@@jeffreybridges3210 Luckily it wasn't on Patreon. But the series it'll probably be by the time people forget about it...

[@ajtct98]

I can just imagine Pete ranting and raving about the fact he didn't get his power card whilst Medical Bill slowly tries to back out of the room

[@alcheman12]

Luke's sheer joy at the return of Mr highlesby is priceless

[@Nuckabuc]

🙌He has returned in all his Glory 🙌

[@feelingdreepy8564]

He has returned and he has gotten significantly bigger

Luke: WHY ARE THEY HURTING IN EPISODE 2 Also Luke: Drafts mostly superstars that have extremely low starting fitness Also Also Luke: Books those people with extremely low starting fitness in backstage brawls and steel cage matches on week 1.

Facts

[@emmanuelonaeko7948]

Luke never learns 😂

[@anzamanto4407]

also, while we're here, can we acknowledge that pete didnt get his power card last week because he signed medical bill who immediately became his lowest rated superstar who was not booked for the show like the commissioner goal asked 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@tyj6081]

People are always talking about how they wish other people were doing this show, but man, Pete and Luke’s chemistry is off the charts and it just keeps getting better. Love this series, can’t wait for more 🔥

[@eyeezayyuhh]

Natayla cutting an embarrassing promo seems accurate 😂

[@thenightking6662]

Bro every time 😂

[@absolutezero2-qk3ks]

This happen irl all the times

[@Amazen]

Only discovered this series last week, spent the entire week binging seasons 1-3. Looking forward to this and the rest of the season.

[@abinghimire3768]

omg i also did the same

[@ChickenNugNugz2]

Welcome aboard the good ship PartsFunknown! Glad to have you both here! These guys have tons of great series like this on various topics, over at WrestleTalk they cover daily wrestling news. The gang also has a podcast channel and they have a sister channel "no rolls barred" which is a tabletop gaming channel. I have to recommend their Blood on the Clocktower series.

[@SpaceGamblerJR]

upupdowndown has a great MYGM mode as well

[@Milksword]

Higglesby going back in time to warn Luke and Pete about the apocalyptic future that will take place if Nakamura completes more than one grivalry this season.

[@OddCtDude]

Pete fussing about not getting the free logistics power card is pure gold

[@daniele.h7697]

It wasn't fussing really. It's a legitimate gripe over the game screwing him from the start.

[@__-dk8fh]

@@daniele.h7697 he didnt get the powercard last week because he bought medical bill who became his lowest popularity guy and didnt book him

[@stingersplash]

​@@daniele.h7697it didn't screw him over. He didn't get the card because he signed Medical Bill right before the time ended and didn't even think to book him in a match as he was now the lowest popularity, not LA Knight.

[@feelingdreepy8564]

The bit of luke having to check for "Young up and comer" stone colds name and then getting it wrong made me laugh more than it should have 😂

[@juanvilla946]

😂😂😂I’m too high for this

[@tomcatarts9111]

I won't lie, and I know these are recorded in advance, but it drives me bonkers that Pete was griping about the powercard, forgetting Medical Bill was the reason he lost said power card

[@phballer99]

I love that Mr. Higglesby became such a legend (among others like Slappers, Tucker, Jive Owens, etc) that even Pete freaked out to see him back! Long live Higglesby!

[@nobodywantsthethimble]

I picked up WWE 2K23 simply for the GM mode based on your play throughs. Thanks gents! Row them grivalries!

[@Novack49]

The decision from Pete to not call his tag champs 'Heaven and Hell' upsets me greatly. Angels. Demons. It's right there.

[@RedskullYT1]

11:57 pete rememebers the bad days

[@diabeticman2194]

Pirate Mr Higglesby is not something I was expecting, but not complaining about it either!

[@SJxPVR]

Just wait until Pete sees what jive Owen's looks like now 😅😂

[@Janx886w]

BTE used to be my favorite wrestling related show on Mondays, but Monday Night Wars has dethroned it. Pete and Luke's chemistry is phenomenal.

[@whathappenswhenimbored]

Pete "Why didn't I get the powercard!?!" Pete "Oh hi Medical Bill." Pete "Such BS that I didn't get the powercard!"

[@ChickenNugNugz2]

Higglesby has gone through some hard times..... He looks like he is gonna pull a heel turn on Luke and Pete for abandoning him after season 2 on 2K2022. "YOU LEFT ME TO DIE! WELL I DIDNT DIE, I SURVIVED BECAUSE I KNEW I MUST MAKE YOU PAY"

[@ryangriffiths5179]

Can’t wait to see Pete’s reaction to his c up last week - and know - it’s time for me to watch the war

[@Jesse_Strick]

Tell me why I love the intro to this series. I wish you guys did WCW vs RAW like the actual Monday night war. Still love you guys and the series 🙌🏻

[@beastycool]

Watching both Pete and Luke's reaction to the return of Mr higglesby is absolutely amazing this series is already off to an amazing start with the return of Mr higglesby the janitor.

[@grimwriter9889]

Tears in my eyes, can't breathe after the "Embarrassing" promo😂

[@WishYouWereHere75]

Appreciate the comment below that the first five have been recorded anyway, so Pete might have worked this out already, BUT - on the Drama Curve screen, a title match belt will be over one of the teams should it be won; check out 29:56 where it shows Balor and Angel as Tag champs. The IC belt is in the middle of Bill and Shelton, showing it wasn't won by either.

[@stingersplash]

Poor Pete still doesn't realise Medical Bill cost him big 😅

[@intense_pickle]

Looks like stimulating matches is going to be more touchy this season...

[@jaemanson6662]

I need this series to NEVER END!!!

[@irrsinnrainer]

I roared with laughter because of the edit while Luke chose his music. Very well done, guys! Also: Yeah, Higgz is back!

[@slim..reaper]

You guys will find out that stamina is VERY HARD to keep up. Injuries happen easily so buy health spa cards as much as possible

[@gangrel_76]

Excited to see how Stim Cold Stone Austin does on Monday Night Raw!

[@spacejesus731]

This on Monday and Reliving the War on Thursday’s. Love having weekly shows to look forward too

[@ruff_house]

Luke picking music is the literal highlight of the video for me, thank you for introducing me to Scene Queen

[@angelicdsb]

"We all saw you did not complete your goal", I kinda love that they record a bunch these at the same time 😛

[@redstarsot]

Pete's Reign of Terror must end! The perfect babyface pay off storyline for Luke

[@ryangriffiths5179]

Did you notice that in the match recap it shows who has the belt after the show and that the Shelton Benjamin v Medical Bill title is still vacant 29:58

[@larryhimselfIsTrending]

I want a whole channel dedicated to you guys playing this game lol

[@olipidolio]

The Luke picking his music bit, man. That's what gets me coming back each week.

[@apocrypha5363]

The darkest timeline version of Mr Higglesby! 😂😂😂

[@absolutezero2-qk3ks]

He survived a nuclear winter

[@an0gr0br]

But still a babyface 😂

[@demarteellis5994]

I just love the “PETE BOOK YOUR F****** SHOW!!!”

[@khaleelmohammed3841]

You hired medical bill pete thats why you didnt get the power card

[@jeffreysharp9925]

Yeah there was a comment about it on the week 1 video too. He checked the goal before he hired Bill.

[@drewellis95]

3:34 what a great GM to work for 😂😂😂

[@scottdempster7705]

Very good series, one day I hope we get a MYRISE career mode, series. And as always thanks to everyone from parts FUNknown and Wrestletalk for all their work and content.

[@chr1sj166]

You guys should 100% spectate 1 match at PPV's so you can see how your superstars are doing in ring

[@dfdedsdcd]

Now we just need Pete to sign Goldberg and get him in a rivalry with Medical Bill over the rights to the name Bill.

[@larryhimselfIsTrending]

Is anyone going to tell Pete Medical Bill screwed him out of that power card? If so, please record it lol

[@Docmain3]

Apparently they filmed up to five episodes and he doesn't know until then.

[@portagasdace21117]

Medical Bill is slowly and quietly backing out the room before Pete notices

[@ryangriffiths5179]

Best part is that they both make mistakes and people comment on them and somehow they never learn

[@ryanbest9445]

Hope that young chipper Slightly Chilly Steve Ashton does well!

[@sk_bennett]

Well, at least Luke is checking Logistics first thing. Also, it takes until SEASON 4 to unlock some of these logistics. 2K wanted to make sure that people had to REALLY play GM mode to unlock everything.

[@sukhisingh10]

Am I the only one counting down to this video dropping! Highlight of my Monday 😂

[@MarkPetersonDotNet]

This episode is so great. So much laughing. I can watch this 24/7

[@SamuelDoherty]

Just checked the playlist. I didn't know you guys listen to the stupendium. That's awesome!

[@yootoobe1790]

Medical Bill is being hazed in the Smackdown locker room for costing Pete the power card

[@nicholaschristie8699]

For Pete, I highly recommend listening to "Axe to Grind" next time, which is from Persona 5 Strikers :)

[@charlesspence4321]

I'm cheering so hard for luke on this one

[@dreadkalibur1613]

I want to get 2k23 just because of this series

[@ThePulsarStudio]

Pete's First PPV: Finally crowning all his champs

[@TazkulaGames]

I might not be the only one, but I noticed something in the match card breakdown. for the IC belt match, since it was a DQ, the image of the title was in between Med Bill and Shelton. But for the other titles who ever won had the image of their respective titles on them.

[@Luminator_maior]

Anyone else thought Luke was gonna listen to "One" by Metallica?

[@NateMcCoy1194]

There you go Luke! Keep getting those free agents!

[@xerael4659]

Pete, if you didn't play it, I highly recommend Persona 5 Strikers soundtrack. It's basically Persona 5 soundtrack, but it has new songs and rock/metal versions of the ones in the original game.

[@francoispellerin4268]

Ah yeah ! Good job guys ! Love this show !

[@meganjdenholm]

You can see if the title changed hands on the show report - the image of the belt is under the person who holds it, its in the middle if no one has it

[@TheKeatsandOnly]

it's around 3am here in the PH, and i saw that this is on. i don't need sleep

[@GeneGallo]

Keep up the amazing show lads. How crazy is it you cant defend belts in triple threat or 4 way

[@dbone3356]

If I wasn't already on team Luke, him signing the guys he did would have put it over the top.

[@KoichiSaito625]

Boss of Monday Night Smackdown listening to the boss theme of Persona 5? Love how meta Pete's music choices this season are.

[@RockinRhinox]

Luke I’m really pulling for you this season. Pete is already off to a bad start you just need to keep building up your momentum and keep Pete on the ropes. You can do this Luke I know you can, just don’t forget about the logistics.

[@hypergreedgaming9590]

only thing that would make this perfect is if all of wrestletalk joined in on myGM by doing reviews of pete and luke's raw and smackdown

[@weightbreaker5154]

@7:43 my reaction every time a new episode goes up.

[@scouseben97]

On the results page, shows you who wins by highlighting them. Then adds the belt in front of them if they’ve win it.

[@zedemonrko]

Jeez, everyone's talking about the power card, huh? Well, I'm gonna say something different. During the summary of SmackDown, the IC Title was in the middle of the match card while the other titles were on one side, indicating the champion after the match.

[@djanime2016]

Pete I love persona 5 music. Persona 5 is my favorite game. Enjoy this series very much. Can't wait for more.

[@axeadaptor7615]

Pete: Thank You Natalya! EMBARRASSING

[@dollhousekillerproductions5736]

Now that we can have more than two players would be nice to have Adam and Oli included

[@zandergreggs3189]

You hired Medical Bill meaning he was your least popular.

[@Blakelyboy21392]

Low key: Carmelo, Gunther, Tyler Bate match would be a banger.

[@rileywritts]

"Stim Cold" Stone Austin

[@FearYeTheRipper]

No joke, since they got rid of the real life portraits for the local talent, I didn't want to look up images before they'd show up in the free agency. I did almost two full seasons, and didn't see Mr Higglesby until like the 2nd week before. I'm writing this before I even finish the video, but he looks like he did some years behinds walls. 😂

[@bklyntruth8080]

They probably won't see this message but I'm thinking the reason that Luke didn't get more money and fans is because the media broadcast and advertising wasn't a decent tier. Probably will get a better boost when more eyes are on the product. Good luck Luke!!!

[@anguirus8652]

I like the series and it's awesome BUT can't put a title on the line in a Triple threat? A big negative mark on me getting it

[@shoryudj]

What about some classic wwe/f album for future episodes??? Great job, love this series

[@OxfordDA98]

Back from the custodiapocalypse, it's... THEREVENGE OF HIGGLESBY

[@Ocerkin]

i honestly think luke smack talking the persona 5 soundtrack might have turned me against him this season... that soundtrack is the best game soundtrack in decades, if not ever

[@WallaceKunin]

Pete not realizing he signed a newb who became his lowest popularity guy last week and ruining his commissioner goal again

[@rayburner8023]

This series is the greatest! 😂

[@Frankenmuppet]

It's probably too late since we've already started season 3 and myGM seasons kind of roll over now in 2k23, but i wish you guys had done a 25 week season. Maybe have 25 week picked at the start and don't say anything until week 14 or something then have Tempest come in and commissioner up another ten weeks or something. Could have been fun

[@BlazedApples]

I started playing GM mode for the first time with my family yesterday and we spent all day playing!

[@PrinceFerocity]

Spoilers Pete still hasn't realised why he didn't get the previous card... then can't be arsed with this weeks power card. Oh Pete 🤣

[@chuges]

Punchy Pete in second place? This is something I never thought I'd see.

[@cdstuddard]

No power card, No tag champs, and still no push for Tucker.

Apocalyptic Janitor Based Incident was the name of my high school grunge band

[@hyperjumpRex]

Keep these up I just subbed

If Pete had the beginner's luck card AND Medical Bill won, he probably would've ended up with popularity approaching the normal superstars...

[@shanekegley4347]

Hey Luke just so you know you don’t always have to put on a special match sometimes normal matches will save you money and save your superstar stamina And we all know how important stamina is

[@Lashyy]

You didn't complete the commissioner goal Pete. You signed Medical bill
