That might be true, but the Raw following the PPV is still supposed to be an important show which takes the next step and elevates feuds further.
That hasn't been the case for quite some time.
I remember anticpating Nitro and Raw after PPV's. I remember being pissed that I couldn't afford to buy PPV's. Now, I check pwinsider.com find out there was a PPV the night before.

I'm like that most of the time now. I remember back in 2000, i was soooooo invested in all the storylines. I stayed up and watched Rocky beat HHH for the title at Backlash, after Stone Cold returned and helped. I marked out big time, and i was so excited for Raw. But that was when we got Raw on the following Friday in the UK, so i had to wait 5 frickin days!
Then let's not forget The Undertaker returning at Judgment Day. I didn't read internet spoilers or news sites back then so it was a massive surprise for me. I was so hooked back then.
"This town deserves a better class of criminal... and I'm gonna give it to them."
While we're at it, will someone give ROH a tv timeslot so I can see what everyone's been talking about.

If you have the time, here's a great site run by a guy who posts all sorts of wrestling goodness on his media pages - everything from good WWE to TNA to ROH to Japan.
Wow...whatever steam CM Punk had, they sure seem hellbent on killing it.
He jobs out to Bob Holly last night.
Thumbs up Vince.
:rolleyes:

Who is writing that weak-ass ECW (Lite?) crap now that Paul E. has left the building?
All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.

Paul E wasn't getting much creative input when he was with the new ecwwcwwe.
I haven't watched the SciFi show in over three months, and sure as hell ain't missing it.
Supposedly, TNA is close to getting a Monday night slot in February during the week when RAW is pre-empted by the dog show, and Impact may be expanded to two hours soon as well. Although I haven't been thrilled with Russo's manic booking, the in-ring product is still light years better than the best match WWE can throw together.

Sounds like a smooth move.......jumping on them during dog show week.

The Best episode was from the Hammerstein. When they gave Batista and Big Show shit, it made for great television.

Missed that one.........but remember you talking about it. I suspect that they won't go back to the Hammerstein anytime soon. :rolleyes:
Maybe one day.....one of the would-be competitors will become a serious competitor.........and we will get great pro wrestling again.

I watched that one... it was back in August I think. That was the one and only SciFi show that has been good, and it was all because of the crowd. They rightfully crapped all over Big Show and Batista, and gave CM Punk a fantastic pop for his TV debut.
I wonder what would have happened if the infamous December to Dismember PPV had been at Hammerstein... riot, perhaps?

What I'm interest in is that if they do One Night Stand again this year, the crowd is going to go crazy.

That would be cool.........that would be a throwback to some of the stuff that used go on down in Puerto Rico in the 1980's...........wild stuff.....Bruiser Brody inciting the crowd and such.

It is my goal, before I die, to go to Abdullah's House of Ribs and Chinese Food. I've been to Atlanta 3 times, and each time I never get around to going there.

Be prepared to bring your weaponry or come with a guy as big as Abdullah because it's in the Ghet-to.

I'm not sure ther would be a crowd this year. For what, a Test/Lashley main event?
LOL probably couldn't give away tix for that one.

It would be worth it for the hellish chants from the audience. Who cares about the matches, bring on the angry mob.

from reading all the spoiler reports that last few weeks, it seems like Smackdown is the best WWE brand in terms of actual wrestling right now...
I remember back around 2002 when Smackdown was far superior to Raw, they had Angle, Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, Lesnar, Jericho, etc, and just kept putting on a decent to good show week after week.
I watched the ultimate warrior dvd today. some of the funniest shit i've ever seen. 'welcome to my world where nightmares are the best part of my day.'
I only lied because it was the easiest way to get what I wanted.
I find a lot of irony in WWE making fun of the Ultimate Warrior. Yeah, he was a little over the top, but have you seen their product lately?

Wasn't he a big-time bounty hunter before entering the ring?
