    Here's a link to the promo:

    Much of it definitely points to Jericho, including the style of music and the countdown at the end. And there's already a ton of speculation out there, dissecting all of the file names which flash onscreen for a millisecond.

    In any case, it's nicely crafted.

    Jericho can't save wrestling.

    McMahon's giving up control can though.

    Sadly...yes. :D

    Hire back Heyman...give him full control of creative...just don't let him handle the money.

    That guy has a mind for the business...and while you're at it...bring in Raven to help him.

    You know what I've really had enough of? The evil GM. That gimmick has been so overdone, it's ridiculous. It's time to go back to a Jack Tunney like guy, who's only heard from every few months. That, and the only McMahon I have the least bit of interest in seeing is Shane. Seriously, Vince comes out now, or they cut to him in the back, and I just FF right thru it.

    From what I've read, the folks at USA want to see Vince and family on screen more...they say their research shows that ratings go up when they're on camera.

    Who does this research?

    If there is a blip in the ratings......it's only because we want to see bad things happen to him and his horde. I bet the ratings drop when the family is on the winning side. :rolleyes:

    There is hope for an improvement in the WWE. John Cena tears a pec muscle and is out until 2008.

    Interesting. Have they announced who is fighting for the belt then? I assume one of them would be Orton, but I haven't seen anything about it. Makes me think they want it to be a surprise and it won't be a typical 1-on-1 type match with someone just filling in for Cena.

    I smell a HHH moment forthcoming.

    Is it confirmed that he's coming back?

    I have completely lost touch with the wrestling world. I got tired of wasting TiVo space with Raw, so I quit watching entirely.

    I don't check PWInsider that much either (I'd check that site more, but the pop ups annoy the hell out of me).

    I'm pretty much the same. I'll flip to Raw during MNF or 24 commercials, every once in awhile. I only really check http://www.wrestlescoop.com/ when someone mentions something interesting on this thread actually.

    Thought it was confirmed Jericho was coming back, but I could be wrong.

    Is he married to the head writer and daughter of the company's owner??? :D

    Trips legacy will be just that: Husband to the owner's daughter. He is a solid worker and great on the mike, but without the massive push he alway receives, he would be ordinary.

    There are tons of guys that get buried while he is reigning king. Don't believe the hype...Trips would be nothing without his position in the company (Read: Family).

    He's doing the same thing that he bitched about other guys doing during his days in WCW and early years in the WWE (nee WWF). :rolleyes:

    Hey....he wants to be champ....let him be champ.....just write some interesting story around and tweak his M.O. a bit. The sledge hammer is old and stale. His creativity is non-existant.
