Alex Riley being announced in a triple threat and main event title match, then pinning Lesnar clean was the hardest I've laughed and most I've ever seen chat pop ever watching a stream.
Every time I see Alex Riley, I always remember that time he thought a crowd sign reading "PUSH RAGE" was meant to be for him but in reality it was Matt McMuscles putting his Def Jam character over on TV.
@@JustSortaOK I think he went back to NXT and started being a mean heel, angry at his career so took it out on the new rookies. He definitely talked about his rage a lot.
@@JustSortaOK Riley tried to get this Rage gimmick over where he felt he was being held back and overlooked, not helped when he was being menaced by a newly debuted Kevin Owens who was way more popular than him, Riley got injured and then returned looking like a Wish version of Triple H
Holy fuck, that A-Ry 'Monster' hype video made him seem like more of a star than he's ever seemed in his entire life; also, does anyone know who does that cover of Monster because it sounds better than the original Imagine Dragons version?
@@UnclesSon Much appreciated, that said, I did end up just looking up covers of Monster and almost all of them sound better than the original Imagine Dragons version.
The Monster WMV was fantastic, props to beefy. Also, the Stone Cold soundboard bit never gets old. I was there for the live stream and the bit with the WHAT?s on the stunner still got me cackling.
I’d rather them stream online matches on this. I mean , it works still, so why not grow the online community by promoting the fact that it still works online
As someone who also pushed A-Ry in their WWE Universe, this is beautiful to see and makes me feel like I’ve connected with Newlegacyinc on a spiritual level.
It honestly is amazing just how freaking great the storytelling in the HBK vs Alex Riley match was. The face-heel-dynamic was executed to perfection, I could practically hear the chorus of boos during HBK's assault with the replica belt, then Riley's apparent comeback after the Impaler DDT and the chair set-up, only for it to be interrupted by the Sweet Chin Music, HBK getting the Okada treatment with the camera zoom-out during his taunt, before utterly destroying Riley and getting the win. A simple story, seen thousands of times before in wrestling, yet still when it's executed to perfection, it will always pull you in, even in a video game.
Remember when Yoshi Tatsu and Tyson Kidd had that feud over an action figure and it culminated in a ladder match where the action figure's leg was hanging above the ring?
@@TrolledBy I also remember when he won a WrestleMania Battle Royal, had a great Superstars match with Chris Jericho, and his infamous Debut Match that he won after Shelton Benjamin made fun of him for being Asian saying he would call Godzilla
It was so awesome seeing this live...and unfortunately experiencing the heartbreak alongside the boys of Alex Riley not becoming a double champ in one night.
I'm stuck at home with a 5 day quarantine, so I needed some sweet nL content, to make it more bareable. Thanks to beefy and the rest of the nL boys for the content. ✌️💙
I like to think the game eventually caught on to nL's in-jokes by the time it decided to have Cody do a random run-in, considering the whole running joke with Cody in the WWE PLE sims a little while ago
As much as I understand the nL guys being sick of Universe Mode (because of how broken the game mode can be and boring at times) and they've got other good projects, their UM content is just peak wrestling gaming content. From the original streams in 2k14, to the Wrestlemania show in 2k18, to these more recent WWE '12 UM streams - this is just so fun to watch and follow. UM and Johnny playing Career Modes will forever be GOATed
I think I started watching your content right around the time this game was the big thing, and honestly seeing you guys playing it after all this time is so cool I love it, shoutout fr !
I just realized that we were all amazed when they “Changed” the logo for WWE 2k23 with the special font on the “23” now I realized that it’s just the same as “WWE’12” 🤣🤣
Seeing Vader being listed as “recovery is hopeless” and then “the big show” had me on the floor, and then Shawn Michaels Vs. Micheal Cole right after was the cherry on top
Mason Ryan's progression: low blows Riley after losing the match> hires David Otunga to beat down Riley> frustrated with Otunga after lost> attacks Otunga for losing a week prior
A little story about this game: I found a copy of this game, Fallout 3, and LittleBigPlanet for the PS3 one afternoon after it had rained. I didn't think anything would be in except for a few empty cases (there was a PSP case and a case for a DVD version of Terminator Salvation), but when I picked up the Fallout 3 case and cracked it open, there it was: WWE 2K12, LittleBigPlanet and Fallout 3, all three barely scratched.
I want to see Michael Cole take the championship away from Shawn Michaels in WWE '12 universe mode, he's freaking deserve it! Jawnny, your laugh made my day, every time. 😀
This man did an entire minute-long AMV for a mostly-forgotten PG era midcarder
Beefy is such a goat holy shit
He is a pg era midcarder in our universe not in NL universe he is basically Daniel Bryan in it
I'm happy that Riley was finally able to turn into A MONSTER, A MONSTER
And I’m glad he only kept getting stronger
28:35 Genuinely loved the Monster edit, and can’t believe Beefy found a “This is Riley Country” sign lmao
I really hope this is a sign that we are getting our next WWE 12 Universe Mode Stream soon!
I hope so too. Been waiting on the next episode for weeks now
Or purple the clown.
@@beigelikable216 yeah lol
Alex Riley being announced in a triple threat and main event title match, then pinning Lesnar clean was the hardest I've laughed and most I've ever seen chat pop ever watching a stream.
James Darnell’s hero Alex Riley got his Dreams do come true moment.
That q&a bit was so damn funny
Yeah, I heard he's doing good for himself, working.....
Why did the Alex Riley “Monster” promo have to go so hard like that? 🔥
Every time I see Alex Riley, I always remember that time he thought a crowd sign reading "PUSH RAGE" was meant to be for him but in reality it was Matt McMuscles putting his Def Jam character over on TV.
So because I was out of wrestling at this point, what did Rage have to do with Alex Riley?
Rage was a Super Best Friends inside joke. Alex Riley probably thought its a generic compliment.
@@IsaacSperrow I know about Super Best Friends Rage, I just thought Riley had some kind of rage gimmick I wasn't aware of
@@JustSortaOK I think he went back to NXT and started being a mean heel, angry at his career so took it out on the new rookies. He definitely talked about his rage a lot.
@@JustSortaOK Riley tried to get this Rage gimmick over where he felt he was being held back and overlooked, not helped when he was being menaced by a newly debuted Kevin Owens who was way more popular than him, Riley got injured and then returned looking like a Wish version of Triple H
Oh my god Beefy COOKED with the Alex Riley Monster video package
The montage damn near brought a tear to my eye, beautiful stuff.
Showcasing Alex Riley, just like Pulse did NOT do during that meet and greet with his friend.
Pulse was just so awestruck to meet his hero and idol, "PUSH RAGE" Alex Riley
please continue this universe mode im super into it!
Holy fuck, that A-Ry 'Monster' hype video made him seem like more of a star than he's ever seemed in his entire life; also, does anyone know who does that cover of Monster because it sounds better than the original Imagine Dragons version?
Look up "Flatirons Community Church - Imagine Dragons - Monster"
@@UnclesSon Much appreciated, that said, I did end up just looking up covers of Monster and almost all of them sound better than the original Imagine Dragons version.
Alex Riley as the True Babyface and Mason Ryan as the despicable heel was the WWE TV we needed in 2012
7:00
*NEVER* has a Universe Mode been so accurate to the wrestler it is portraying.
The Monster WMV was fantastic, props to beefy.
Also, the Stone Cold soundboard bit never gets old. I was there for the live stream and the bit with the WHAT?s on the stunner still got me cackling.
Pulse watching this: THERE GOES MY HEROOOO! WATCH HIM AS HE GOESSSS!
Praying for another WWE 12 Universe episode 🙏
I’d rather them stream online matches on this. I mean , it works still, so why not grow the online community by promoting the fact that it still works online
@@BeatsByMii why not both⁉️⁉️
As someone who also pushed A-Ry in their WWE Universe, this is beautiful to see and makes me feel like I’ve connected with Newlegacyinc on a spiritual level.
I did not expect “HE’S SHOOT DEAD”
Big Show tripping over the steps had me crying
I've legit come back to this video twice just to rewatch the video package. Amazing job on that beefy!
Its a fun vid NL boys
It honestly is amazing just how freaking great the storytelling in the HBK vs Alex Riley match was.

Literally the only thing I remember Tatsu for in WWE. That feud and the marvelous theme song
@@TrolledBy I also remember when he won a WrestleMania Battle Royal, had a great Superstars match with Chris Jericho, and his infamous Debut Match that he won after Shelton Benjamin made fun of him for being Asian saying he would call Godzilla
13:28
Mason Ryan casually doing the Mike Knox "Quarter Past Ten" taunt
I hope this means that they will do more of the WWE 12 universe mode soon. Feels like forever since we got any of that or any 2k23 GM mode content.
Its been a month since they streamed any wrestling games on twitch
The Stone Cold soundboard gets me every time.
That Alex Riley “Monster” video package…….perfection 🤧
NL could just become a full time WWE 12 universe channel and id be all for it 😂
Fr tho! Like I don’t remember this game being this hype! Lol
2:11. Perfect timing by Michael Cole. LOL.
Jeez Shawn took it personal on Alex Riley with the belt shots 😂
Honestly i love yall doing these with superstars that're in one game!
Y'all gotta continue this
It was so awesome seeing this live...and unfortunately experiencing the heartbreak alongside the boys of Alex Riley not becoming a double champ in one night.
That was an amazing watch! Loved the promo package editing, was honestly incredible!
THE First 0:35 are the best time of my life 😂Johnnys laughs is sooo funny 1:25
I'm wondering where to find that cena theme cover in the background 😂😂
Would love to see you guys do more of this! Those WWE '12 Universe Mode streams were awesome.
I'm stuck at home with a 5 day quarantine, so I needed some sweet nL content, to make it more bareable. Thanks to beefy and the rest of the nL boys for the content. ✌️💙
Literally clicked so fast when I saw Riley on the cover ... Dead ass my all time favorite underrated wrestler
Things are about to go A-RY!
What an amazing moment the A-Ry 'Monster' video is.
I love that the game just doesn't remember the factions the boys made.
I like to think the game eventually caught on to nL's in-jokes by the time it decided to have Cody do a random run-in, considering the whole running joke with Cody in the WWE PLE sims a little while ago
That hype package. ❤
why tf is nobody talking abt how that sincara rana edit looked kinda clean tho?
Holy shit Beefy, I was NOT ready for that video package to hit so damn hard.
As much as I understand the nL guys being sick of Universe Mode (because of how broken the game mode can be and boring at times) and they've got other good projects, their UM content is just peak wrestling gaming content. From the original streams in 2k14, to the Wrestlemania show in 2k18, to these more recent WWE '12 UM streams - this is just so fun to watch and follow. UM and Johnny playing Career Modes will forever be GOATed
That hype package made me want to sign A-ry to my company in 2k
So when can we expect Alex Riley's long-awaited Deadlock debut?
“What is wrong with the assholes in 2012” -Slip
SAY IT TO MY FAAAAAAACE
Never thought I'd hear the term "bumpmeister" in 2023, but here we are.
9:04 I like how everyone, even the AI had the same reaction
I think I started watching your content right around the time this game was the big thing, and honestly seeing you guys playing it after all this time is so cool I love it, shoutout fr !
Yoooo that promo package actually ruled 😂
Like 10/31, Fuckbuster, Oglehand, and Slip ( reverse or Float over DDT), the Atomic Drop shall now always be the "Babymaker" to me
That Monster promo was fucking great 😂
We’re really underestimating the damage that that SOB Dibiase did with the sledgehammer on the 3 count. A-Ry needs to make him pay!
I just realized that we were all amazed when they “Changed” the logo for WWE 2k23 with the special font on the “23” now I realized that it’s just the same as “WWE’12” 🤣🤣
4:11 *has PTSD flashbacks to Punk v Carlito*
I hope that means we get more 2k12 universe mode 😊
riley the miracle kid! the mirecal kid!
I can't believe how faithful to a Sin Cara match this game was.
That Alex Riley video was so good 😂😂😂
I don’t think I’ve ever been more hyped about watching a custom buildup package. A-RY has won my heart forever ❤️ beautiful work boys 👏🏻
need episode THREE IMMEDIATELY 🙂
Seeing Vader being listed as “recovery is hopeless” and then “the big show” had me on the floor, and then Shawn Michaels Vs. Micheal Cole right after was the cherry on top
Yeah, a good video package can make literally anything feel compelling af 😂
We do not deserve these Beefy edits. That video package is up there with the Daniel Bryan Wrestlemania one.
P U S H R A G E ! ! !
This brings me back nice WWE 2k14 nL Universe memories. Cept without the poorly aged early 2010s humor. lol
Great Video
Does anyone know the cover for 'Monster' and where to find it?
Holy shit, that promo package for A Ry actually gave me goosebumps 😂🔥
love you guys hahahhahahahahhaha y'all literally brighten up my day
They do the same, too
17:28 Mason ryan hit em with the ol' OOGA BOOGA
GOD ! the PUSH RAGE Throwback !
I need to sign Alex Riley to my caw company now
We need a redemption story for Alex. Please revisit this.
Riley wins the next Royal Rumble mark my word. the A-RY train is going to wrestlemania
I can't believe they pushed rage.
brock missing 4 chairshots and then throwing the chair out of the ring in frustration sent me
The Atomic Drop: the New NL Special.
I haven't seen HBK be such a menace in so long
thanks boys
When a game from 2011 can make me care about and regret a wrestler from that time not being used properly, some good player created narratives there
Mason Ryan's progression: low blows Riley after losing the match> hires David Otunga to beat down Riley> frustrated with Otunga after lost> attacks Otunga for losing a week prior
I'm surprised Jawnny never had Stone Cold say:
_"I said that man's name was- _*_WHAT?"_*
That is the hardest edit I have ever seen (and it was for one of my favorite cliche wrestlers)
*THREE?!*
Slip and Stone Cold as all-time commentary duo
I can see why Alex Riley is James’s hero
A MONSTER A MONSTER
Does anyone know who made this cover of Monster?
Between Jawwny & Slip...I don't know who's laugh is the best? 😂
SAY IT TO MY FACE!
the monster video brought a tear to my eye 😓😓😓
Bruh this is so fire...amazing
We need more WWE 12 universe mode to make the NL WWE 12 universe truly Riley Country
A little story about this game:
I found a copy of this game, Fallout 3, and LittleBigPlanet for the PS3 one afternoon after it had rained. I didn't think anything would be in except for a few empty cases (there was a PSP case and a case for a DVD version of Terminator Salvation), but when I picked up the Fallout 3 case and cracked it open, there it was: WWE 2K12, LittleBigPlanet and Fallout 3, all three barely scratched.
Why was the Monster video package so good
I want to see Michael Cole take the championship away from Shawn Michaels in WWE '12 universe mode, he's freaking deserve it! Jawnny, your laugh made my day, every time. 😀
Let this continue
