  1. It was a 6.0 to 5.5. People seem to put too much stock into this. .5 drop was because alot of markets at the time didn't carry TNN. Now TNN/Spike are in as many homes as USA. So the change in channels is moot. What the whole 1.0 drop was the 25 min Chyna promo about playboy that sanked the crowd to whoever the hell was playing MNF at the time. Hell, Nitro got a ratings bump from Chyna's god awful promo.
  2. The match was meant for RAW but the fact they gave Austin and McMahon 25 mins to do 5 mins worth of stuff is what caused that match to get shitcanned.
  3. I thought their grandplan was 20 PPVs a year and only 4 shows a year joint.
  4. Thing is, Rudy wasn't really liked in NYC until 911. He was getting flak the level of Bush is currently getting. He should not get the nod, because he won't pull away any sway voters to the GOP and his policies are only for NYC. I doubt he would even win NY for the GOP if he ran.
  5. How is it that its not a bad comment when he used the word BLACK. Bringing race into it made it a racist comment. There is no way around it. No way to spin it. If he had another meaning, which he did, it fell on deaf ears when he smartly added the word black. Blacks make up the most convicted group of murders in this country. And like half of that number comes from Slum New Orleans and Detroit. Blacks themselves don't make the highest number of criminals in this country, simply because there are less of us. The one thing I don't understand is that whites and blacks are the big two groups, yet hispanics are not on the list. That fucks everything up. How does like 30+% of the population not get in this spread sheet?
  6. Nobody won this pissing contest, they were both pissing into fans and shit went everywhere. As for Warrior being mentally ill...no. Oh hell no. The guy is a nutjob but the sad part is that he is smart enough to know what is right or wrong. But goes for his ego instead of any tack or (un)common sense
  7. could it be an easter egg?
  8. I am like the only smark in the world to have never seen this match. Hart Foundation v. Austin's Team (Canadian Stampede)
  9. But it's a TV show. They are playing the part for people to buy tickets and see these people get beat up. Most times it works(the out there storylines excluded) but when someone who isn't on TV goes and mocks someone for having forms of cancer, then that person can go straight to hell. Warrior and Vince having this pissing contest is comparable. Using what is on RAW and Smackdown to somehow justify someone saying its good someone died of steroid abuse is not in the same ballpark. Its not even in the same league, its not even in the same fucking sport.
  10. With Warrior posting these comments, he has no ground to sue over, so the WWE got what they wanted. They can do this to every wrestler they want because these stories they post are TRUE. Warrior comes off like an asshole for his comments about Heenan and the Byte this crew. Don't forget past comments about Pillman, Rude, and Patterson.
  11. The problem is that there is only one Warrior match left to do that is any good. That is 89 Summerslam vs Rude. Only thing else I can think of is the SNMV with LOD vs Demolition. But I think that match should have been on the LOD DVD.
  12. Shawn Michaels v. Steve Austin (KOTR '97)
  13. At one time, he was the shit, hard to believe that his last claim to fame in national wrestling is jobbing to rookies in 28 seconds and being branded as the killer of Miss Liz on WWF TV.
  14. Do the same trick that everyone else uses, take Taker or HHH through the season mode, and take rack up points. Buy extra points and turn around with a CAW from 40 to 88 in the span of 1 weekend.
  15. My post will be the land of the red x in about a month but... Fav: 1: 2: 3: Least: 1: 2: AWA LHW title 3: WWF Tag team title 4: Any version of the WWE US title. Both Cena and current/past.
  16. Andre's finisher towards the end of his career/life was the get tied in the ropes and "Sports Entertainment" finish because he could barely walk/move let alone wrestle. He had no business wrestling in any kind after WM1 maybe WM3 if you want the dream match.
  17. Shit, that means 45 min drive to either the Westchester or 45 min drive to Trumbull. Damn it.
  18. NO may get flooded, even with the storm completely passing them. I45 being used to ease traffic, having both NORTH and SOUTH bound traffic going north to ease problems. Yet, NO GAS left in Northern Houston area. Storm is slightly weaking with top MPH speeds of sustained winds being at 170 In other words, this area is completely fucked unless this drops down to a cat3
  19. Who is drawing right now? Ratings and buyrates are hitting alltime lows. And three of the 4 have been headlining for the most part for the last 3 years. Its a good sign that they aren't drawing. Flair used to be a major headline and BIGTIME draw, but those days are long gone. Flair in the south is as much of a household name as Austin, and I heard many sports shows use his "To be the man..." line both in NC/VA as well as NYC. But we are going back 15+ years to talk about him drawing. HBK has been proven NEVER to be a draw. His best year of drawing is in 1998. And then he wrestled 4 matches. But going against the super over Undertaker, and the even more over Austin, with Tyson in his corner it comes a loaded deck. HHH has been on the top of the card for about the last 6 years except for this very moment and when he tore his quad. In 2000, ratings for raw were in the 6/7 range. Beating alot of primetime regular TV shows in top shows of the week. In 2004/5, ratings are hitting holiday lows on non holiday shows. Also, HHH was main eventing shows that had buyrates that keep dropping month after month after month. It seems the only PPVs he draws well on are WMs. But that isn't true because look at WM19 Angle is booked so poorly, he can only draw in Pittsburg these days. It is sad too because Angle is one of the best wrestlers in the WWE style. Too many times he is the goofy dumbass that when they make him serious, nobody buys him as a threat. Prime example is in 2001, he was wearing a cowboy hat with Austin and singing country songs with McMahon while trying to win love of the boss so he can suck up more. Then he and Austin are supposed to draw back to back PPVs well because of this shit? Then he wins the title (post 9-11) and they are forced to put the belt back on Austin because ratings quickly tanked.
  20. Problem with DX, is that its saying D-Generation-X. Ric Flair is NOT in generation X, Ric Flair is a baby boomer. He is just too old. . .really. For everything, he is just too old. Call the group of Angle, Flair, HBK, and HHH P.O.P(Past our Prime), because they only get pops, and nobody is a draw.
  21. Thing that is scary about Hakushi is that his WORST matches were in the WWF. He was leaps and bounds better than just about everyone on the roster who's last name didn't end with Hart. Telling someone to die because they don't think that HBK is one of the best workers/wrestlers in the WWF durring the mid 90s is just sad. HBK was good, he wasn't great. Hell, he doesn't hit top 5 durring 95-97. He is top 5 in 1994, only because he was wrestling **** matches against the clique every month.
  22. Make sure WMP volume is up because that can fuck with that file. I agree, what the fuck is that, it kinda looks like a female that can't be more then 60 pounds.
  23. WM4 and WM5 are neck and neck for the most boring WMs. They go on forever. WM5 has like 20 matches and by the time Savage faces Hogan, I am completely burned out. WM4 is nothing but steroid monsters wrestling steroid monsters. Every match just drags. The tag title swtich is the best match on the card. And when the Demos are in match of the night, you know you are in trouble. As for WM1 through 14, what extras could they really do? Have Jr and whoever is alive from the match do an alt audio?
  24. If they are going with the college tour, UConn is great for the lines of "I can't hear you, you have too much fag in your mouth" and "We need to get these sand niggers out of this country and back to a-raba"
  25. these days, nobody. In the 80s, everyone bought to see Hogan.
