See, while some may think 3 titles are the best way to go, I don't necessarily think so and I think fans feel the same way. Maybe it's just me, but I always looked forward to Raw a little more when there was like 4 titles on the line in the same night. It always made it seem a little more unpredictable, plus gave some of my non-Main Event favorites a chance to win a title. From a fan's point of view, 3 titles are pretty much boring since once they're on someone, they stay there for a little while. And plus, we know HHH is gonna hold on to one of those titles already. And again, dropping back to 5 PPVs a year.....I don't know. If WWE would plan their stuff out a lot better, there would be enough time to properly hype PPVs. Anyway, I don't think that's the way to go either since PPVs, for the most part, promise quality matches. And I think fans would prefer seeing a PPV or getting an opportunity to go through 1, rather than sit through 3-minute Raw matches. On these topics, I'm looking on the fans' point of view, since I do believe that's the best way to run a wrestling federation. If the fans don't want to see HHH, fine. Try Kurt Angle. Don't want to see Angle ? Fine. Let's try RVD. No RVD ? How about Test ( ) It's about switching things up for the fans' enjoyment, which Vince doesn't do and I have a feeling SOME people here might not necessarily do here either. I mean...how many people would push Benoit to the moon even if the fans weren't responding ? Anyway, what pleases you may not please the fans, which is why I questioned the 3 titles/5 PPVs a year suggestion....but still, good ideas.

As RVD was made to look like a chump by Kane, and I saw the Final 4 in the ring, some strange song popped into my head. Those of you who have been fans for a while may remember this song's theme: "Whoa-oa. Whoa-oa. It's HOSS-A-MANIA !" RVD thrown out by Kane ? Jericho thrown out by Test ? Nothing can sum that up besides the word "Bullshit." Great Rumble....Awful Ending. But I mean....if you thought Vince would let a little, non-hoss, non WWE-manufactured wrestler like Chris Jericho win, you might need to watch WWE TV a little more...... Vince: So guys, who should win the Royal Rumble ? Heyman: Well, the obvious winner would be Brock, but let's try to switch things up. How about Jericho or RVD ? Vince: Ho-ho-ho ! Ha-Ha-Ha ! Hey Paul..... ......So are we all in agreement that Brock should win ? All: Yes sir ! JR: And let's make it a Hoss-Final-Four by gawd ! *orgasm* Heyman: But do the fans want to see that ? Vince: Hey Paul, get over here.... .....the rest of you, work on this Royal Rumble. Batista will get the fans back, or my name isn't Vince McMahon, dammit !

Well, keep in mind that this is taking place in NYC. And the last time the Rock got booed was at SummerSlam, IN New York. If he starts getting booed other places, then I'll say his popularity is at a low. But it's a fact that New York has always hated the Rock.

Question: I know the Kat left Lawler for a Haas brother, but which one was it ? Was it Charlie or Russ Haas, because I really don't remember..... EDIT: Sorry. Just found out it was a Dupp brother. Not a Haas one. My bad. -------------------------------------------------------------- And by the way, the Kat screwing with Jeff Hardy on the side is news to me. Guess you learn something new every day....... ......but Jeff Hardy ?

Tough Enough 1: I thought it was almost set that Josh was winning. It seemed like throughout the whole editing process that they were trying to get the watchers on his side, but then dropped it. As for women, I thought Nidia was going to win. Taylor just wasn't unique enough for them and the blond-haired chicks they got in Trish, Stacy, and Torrie just surpass Taylor in every category. At least Nidia was something new. Tough Enough 2: Jake, because of Vince's hoss-fetish, and Jackie. I thought the WWE would love to go through that whole "Cinderella hurt her knee but won the contest" story. I guess that WWE method of thinking didn't work out to well, huh ? Tough Enough 3: I see Jonah and John winning. I don't see how John can be ignored, unless he gets injured, because he has so much natural ability. Meanwhile, Jonah has a lot of personality and I don't think they'll ignore that either. I can safely say that the winners of Tough Enough 3 SHOULD be at least better than the winners of Tough Enough 2.

As for RVD's match with HBK, I believe that it's HBK who's the cause for the low rating. I mean, according to rumors, the Armageddon buy-rate was the worst one in years. And who Main-Evented that one ? HBK. And as for RVD/Kane vs. Three Minute Warning, I'm a huge RVD fan and I flipped channels that first match and didn't even watch the second one. If WWE refuses to put RVD in any type of angle, then where is the incentive to watch ? Notice that these "ratings bombs" - Storm/Regal, Three Minute Warning, Kane....they don't have any type of angle and haven't had one for months. Meanwhile, Steiner, Black Gold, and Jerichristian HAVE had good ratings, while having angles as well. Coincidence ? Not really. I'm kinda getting off-topic here, but the point is that it's difficult to call ANYONE a ratings-bomb. Especially RVD, considering he hasn't gotten an angle in months and has repeat matches against people like Three Minute Warning.
