Its from the dirtsheets and occurred before RAW but apparently Ziggler's case now determines what the actual plans for the Rumble and Mania will be.

Punk vs taker means nothing if punk hasn't been champion over 500 (504 to be exact) days going into the match.
Streak vs streak..bunch of morons |
Here's an idea..have Cena cash in on big show so he's the whc, then the rock beats punk..and they can do rock vs Cena for undisputed title at wm..if they're going to be morons about Cena winning mitb they should at least follow their own rules and make the match huge
|
I guess that throws away the rumble winner though...
|
Lol have Cena beat whoever ins the rumble and claims the rock as their choice so he, as whc, can face the rock
Let dolph win the rumble and lose his spot to Cena..haa |

I wonder what the build up/ theme of a Punk vs Taker Wrestlemania match would be? Best In The World vs Deadest Man In The World?
I would rather Undertaker leave it at 20. 21 is just so......uneven. |

There's gotta be a Cena-Taker match before Taker retires. It just feels like the last "piece" left.

Raw drew it's lowest rating of the year.
http://www.wrestlingnewssource.com/n...medium=twitter "Monday's WWE Raw drew the lowest audience of the year with an average of 3.44 million viewers. The news comes just two months after the WWE's flagship drew a record low audience of 3.50 million viewers against Monday Night Football's biggest audience of the season. Monday's first hour drew 3.58 million viewers, 3.37 million in the second hour viewers, and 3.36 million third hour." The fact that they are losing viewers in the last hour is alarming,. |

|
Doesn't this time of year always have the lowest ratings of the year?
|
I think its usually the period after Summer Slam till the last ppv in December is their "down" period in terms of ratings and buys.
Difference this year is them reaching historic lows instead of the usual lows in regards to ratings and not just since the switch to 3 hours. |
Quote:
Also I remember the 10-11 hour always being the hour where ratings are supposed to go up with the exception of the beginning segment. I don't know, people can keep defending the WWE as their ratings plummit to record lows. Their talent pool is too thin for 3 hours. Now they are trying to get more women viewers. I'm bored of the product and may just watch something else. Have fun with the women centric WWE. |
Quote:
Seriously though we'll have fun watching WWE. Hope you have fun doing "something else". I for one kinda like the idea of them trying to grab woman's attention. Hopefully this means the Diva's division gets the much needed boost it's been lacking for so long. |

I'm going to be surprised if there isn't a swerve in the Ziggler/Cena match, with AJ switching sides.
|
I'm actually kinda hoping that happens. Talk about adding ego to Ziggler.

He steals the show....and your girlfriend

Bill Demott probably going to be fired soon as the head trainer for NXT.
Allegations of him forcing male wrestlers to wrestle in the nude while taking pictures and laughing was made recently with one person posting an actual image DeMott took during a training session. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1...-to-train-nude NSFW: show Would make it the second person to speak out on what DeMott does at NXT/FCW with Jeremiah Riggs from the past Tough Enough the first. Also allegations of him getting the previous head trainer fired just so he could take over which has lead to a lot of talent getting injured from his style of training. |
I was wondering if this was a BS story of something legit was coming out of it....damn.
|
Kevin Matthews has gone on the offensive against DeMott

Jack Swagger makes his long awaited return!
Also, was nice of them to invite Brad Maddox into the video despite him "not having a contract". |
Well he was nice enough to travel to England to explain his actions, even though he "didn't have a contract".
Maybe this is the WWE's way of saying thanks. |

Also, I call bullshit on rob11's claim that the WWE talent pool is too thin for 3 hours.
The correct claim is that they're stretching out the same old shit and adding a bunch of filler INSTEAD OF, you know, adding people. For example, why should I have to watch Superstars/Saturday Morning Slam/Main Event/NXT or any other show people don't/can't watch to see guys like Trent Baretta or JTG? 3 hour show is a perfect way to have more Zack Ryder, or someone else who "gets no love". Instead, we get constant flashbacks of shit that happened 10 minutes ago, and 5 Cena segments instead of 3. And we are still pretty much down to the same number of matches that RAW used to put on in ONE HOUR. That part is their own fault. |
Trent is still getting the ring-rust out from the injury on NXT I think.
|
I know he is, nor am I a super-huge fan of JTG, but that wasn't the point.
The three-hour length was, theoretically, supposed to do the same thing the permanant move to 2 hours was supposed to do- on both RAW and SmackDown, and ultimately hasn't. There's far too much "ratings are down because Punk can't draw!" and "Cena = girl's watching" and not enough wrestling on a wrestling program. And I don't mean just old-school string of matches on a card with little or no reason (though that would help get SOME people some exposure), but it is really hard to fathom how, between A TEAM of people who are supposed to be creative, it takes all of them to make a tabloid "scandal" just to elevate Ziggler, and they have no ideas or direction for almost anyone else on the entire roster. Punk/Heyman, gods they are, can't carry the show. As popular as Cena is to kids and to haters, he can't carry the whole show. And to have all these extra people who HAVE TO travel from town to town, and they don't even get used is kinda stupid. |
I kind of miss the brand split.
I miss the days when Raw and SmackDown were in competition with each other and you actually felt like you were watching a different show when you watched Raw and SmackDown. These days, when I watch SmackDown, I feel like I'm watching some kind of "spiritual successor" of that past Monday's Raw. Also, maybe it's just me but it feels like recently SmackDown has shown less matches and more Raw Recaps and SmackDown Recaps of the previous week. The same can be said for Superstars but I think I've already mentioned my thoughts on Superstars recently. Maybe that's one of the reasons why I like JBL on commentary on SmackDown. To me, he makes it feel like those days again when he says stuff like "This is what we do on Friday nights!" and his referencing to SmackDown as the "A Show" and all that. Also, it doesn't help that sometimes you have the same guy wrestling on Raw and SmackDown. For example, you might see a Rey Mysterio match on Raw, then another one just four days later on SmackDown and then you sometimes get a recap of what Mysterio did just four days ago on Raw and you're left thinking something along the lines of "I've seen this stuff before this week". Sort of a repeat of a repeat of a repeat. During the brand split, you would tune in to either show knowing who to expect and that would probably be why you would tune in. To see the guys you liked, and I don't know how to explain it but it would feel like that was "their turf" so to speak. It made it even more entertaining when they would appear on the other show unannounced. It would feel "weird" seeing them on the opposing show's stage for example. Then the Draft Lottery would happen and you would hope that the guys you liked being on a certain show, wouldn't be drafted or vice versa. Also the reaction you would give of a pick that you would think would be weird coming true, come true. For example, when J.R was drafted to SmackDown or when Carlito was drafted to Raw in 2005. You would think "What?" and it would be a "weird thought" thinking of them as being part of that brand and appearing on the show. Now, it's a lot "calmer" these days. You tune in to a show and expect to see pretty much the same as what you saw on the other show. I don't know, It's somewhat hard to put into words and maybe I'm not making much sense because of it, but it was a thought that came into my head just now and I felt like sharing it. |

Its shown with the preference for recaps, draft, and "Supershows" were always meant to benefit RAW while Smackdown either was always rebuilding or got minimal attention. The only benefit Smackdown got was since Vince and co didn't bother that much with the show, it could take the time to build new stars or even show off more wrestling in matches. That basically changed once the WWE sent Orton and decided Smackdown had to be just like RAW with their own "Cena" and recap-filled mess. |

It could use a little more attention in the Raw main event scene but it's been stellar. And Show is a vet who has some credibility and has seen some mainstream attention over the years. He's a great champion and a guy who can hep build a title up. |
Got bored on Draw Something so just drew Hogan instead

Should have drawn Michael Tarver. :'(

Almost started a thread when I found this: What do you guys think here at TPWW? Did they jump the gun? Is Shane Douglas a genius in disguise?
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/W6vVSTsvYqQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> |
Having the WWE Champion work a shitload of indy shows is fucking stupid. They could have stretched it out longer, but it was the hottest thing going and they had their 2nd biggest PPV of the year 2 weeks later.
|
|
FFS, Shane Douglas still thinks booking ECW Reunion shows and launching a promotion around that in 2012 makes sense.
|
Looks like another divorce isn't the only money problems Flair is facing right now since recent news is him owing roughly $300,000 in unpaid taxes and all of that was from the last 4 years.
His pay from his "Retirement" match against HBK was Vince making sure all his tax debts were paid off at the time so he could actually retire from wrestling without worrying about old debts. |
I'm running out of sympathy for Ric Flair, but luckily for me I can always find something on YouTube that gives me a few more sighs at his misfortunes. Flair is going to fuck around and be in prison for tax evasion.

First, take all the two-strikers in the WWE and have them work exclusively on SmackDown. This means that if they're fired, it won't really impact the WWE's main bread-and-butter show. Randy Orton, Rey Mysterio, R-Truth and William Regal being SmackDown exclusive already gives that show some big names and unique personalities. The World Heavyweight Title picture would then be exclusive to SmackDown. So Big Show, Sheamus and Dolph Ziggler would then only be seen on the blue brand. Throw in Sin Cara, who could use the polish by continuing his work with Rey Mysterio; Hunico, who could appeal to the Hispanic audiences; Camacho, who is aligned with Hunico; Alberto Del Rio, who is another big star that always just seemed "better" on SmackDown; Ricardo Rodriguez, and potentially his El Local alter-ego; The Usos, who would be kept away from Roman Reigns so their family link need not be explained; and AJ Lee, who could rebel against Vickie Guerrero and sign exclusively with SmackDown, and you've already gone a long way into giving the show its own unique identity. RAW could still remain three hours. Basically, everyone else would be a RAW Superstar, and you could give matches a lot more time. You could also have "NXT Showcases," where guys from NXT come up and try to prove their worth to whoever the RAW General Manager is. The undercard and mid-card would get a strong chance to show themselves off on RAW (with stars that the WWE sees a more profitable future in being sent to SmackDown, as sort of a transition period between being a mid-carder and a main eventer), and there could be a strong focus on segments dedicated to things like the tag team division. |
The problem with the brand split was that while great guys would have time to grow and improve, once they became on the verge of the main event, they'd get moved to Raw in the draft and be barely used. I'm thinking Kennedy and MVP especially stalled big time after the move.
They'd go to Raw as upcoming stars and come back in the next year's draft as jobbers to the stars. |
