MikeGUEST
Still didn't get over the conversation.
MikeGUEST
Then... got a PlayStation 2, obviously you've got all the PlayStation, I once got Here Comes the Pain, and that was the start of wrestling for me, because I was obviously playing all the games, I got every single game, like Spider-Man vs.
MikeGUEST
Raw, all of them, I was addicted to the games.
MikeGUEST
Every year we got it, me and my brother and my friends used to play the ladder matches all the time, Hell in a Cell, Royal Rumbles, loved it.

Chidera and NatalieHOST
That's the game you enjoy.
Chidera and NatalieHOST
I'm glad
AJHOST
you did not come and say, here comes the pain, because my agenda against that game is
Chidera and NatalieHOST
just...
Billy StrachanHOST
It's like all your Christmases came home at once.
Alex WebbGUEST
I even like, I remember in like Here Comes the Pain, like I even did like a full career mode as Reino.
Alex WebbGUEST
I was like, because I remember back in the day, I was like, yeah, Reino should be undisputed champion.
Alex WebbGUEST
So I remember doing a full career mode with him.
Blade DalyHOST
A-Bit Bruchet says SmackDown 2 is goated.
Blade DalyHOST
Is that SmackDown Here Comes the Pain? Is that?
ZerpieGUEST
No, I think there was SmackDown, SmackDown 2, and then there was like Here Comes the Pain and what was the other one? Just Bring It.
Blade DalyHOST
Oh, just bring it.
Travis BanksGUEST
game yeah i mean i was a while i i still am um just a massive video game i'm sure all of us around the same age you probably feel the same way but um yeah it was a massive video game so anything that i could get my hands on i would play um Me and my best friend, as I said, this is when video rental stores were still around.
Travis BanksGUEST
That was one of my hometown, and we hired out all the games, but we hired out SmackDown Here Comes the Pain so much that we broke the disc.
Travis BanksGUEST
We broke the only copy in the store.
Travis BanksGUEST
We just put it back through the slot, and we just never spoke of it again.
MattHOST
And they actually created a whole video game series off of that.
MattHOST
I mean, before it was WWE 2K, it was, well, first it was, what was it? Shut Your Mouth and Here Comes the Pain, Just Bring It, Know Your Role, kind of bouncing around here.
MattHOST
But then it became SmackDown versus Raw.
MattHOST
And that took place in 2005.
GeorgeHOST
We were, like, bang in the midst of his Reign of Terror, and we were talking about, "Oh, do you remember when Triple H was, like, the all-conquering good guy in, uh, 2002? Oh, it'd be great if he went back to that." And, uh, this guy was like, "Oh, no, he's better as a heel." And, like, I, I knew the face/heel terminology because, um, I...
GeorgeHOST
I'm trying to remember if it was Here Comes the Pain or SmackDown vs.
GeorgeHOST
Raw, but, like, you could assign yourself face and heel on that game, or face or heel shall I say, and then you would get bonuses for doing things that a face or heel would do.
GeorgeHOST
And, uh...

[heavy metal music] Here comes the pain.
speaker_31SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER

speaker_31SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Victim is your name in my vicious wasteland.
speaker_31SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Here comes the pain.
speaker_31SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Your destruction manifest.
speaker_31SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Lying there broken, looking up into eyes still dead.
speaker_31SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Everyone falls.
Steve RiddleHOST
Um, all right.
Steve RiddleHOST
Well, I'll go ahead and give, uh, my next entry on my Mount Rushmore, and I'll actually go back to the, uh, WWE, and I will go with the, uh, sequel to Shut Your Mouth, uh, which many people consider one of the greatest games that WWE ever did, and that's of course Here Comes the Pain.
Steve RiddleHOST
Um, again, taking, you know, what Shut Your Mouth did and kinda building on it, again, a really strong roster.
Steve RiddleHOST
It was the first time we actually got legends in a game.
Steve RiddleHOST
Like, if you weren't like, a big name, like that had his own like, unique entrance, um, some of the lower-end guys use, basically just like, shared the same [laughs] generic entrance, which, um, which they, I think they fixed that by the next game.
Steve RiddleHOST
But, um, but yeah.
Steve RiddleHOST
I think, um, again, Here Comes the Pain I thought was, you know, just again a really fun game.
Steve RiddleHOST
Um, and just one of those like, again, just like, got a lot of, um, replayability out of it.
Robert O'NeillPANELIST
I mean, I was a fan of that.
Robert O'NeillPANELIST
He was in Here Comes the Pain, so he was kind of fun to use sometimes.
Robert O'NeillPANELIST
Um, but as far as being a fan, like, aside from liking the couple, you know, one-offs like, oh, Sergeant Slaughter's here, I wouldn't say, like, I ever really became a fan.
Robert O'NeillPANELIST
Um- I saw the bulk of these matches in the past year or so-
2 HRS 25 MINS LATER
BobPANELIST
Um, less than you'd think.
Joe HulbertHOST
Right.
BobPANELIST
Like I said, he's in Here Comes the Pain, he's in Legends of WrestleMania, he's in All Stars.
BobPANELIST
But, like, as far as the yearly games go, I think he's in, like, a couple of the 2Ks, and that's about it.
GrahamHOST
totally fine.
AbaddonGUEST
SmackDown, here comes the pain.
Jonas BarnesHOST
Yeah.
Jonas BarnesHOST
One of the best
AbaddonGUEST
You could, like, throw people into the showers and you could, like, throw people into fucking uncommon traffic.
AbaddonGUEST
Oh, that shit was great.
Jonas BarnesHOST
Here Comes the Pain was insane as far as that goes, because you could you could throw people into traffic, you could throw people literally off the roof of a building.
Jonas BarnesHOST
You could the Smackdown fist that was so high up in the air.
