Problem with running less-traveled areas is that it makes you look bush league. I mean, if a major promotion's flagship show was held in Burlington, VT or Omaha, NE you'd probably think less of them cause 'they couldn't afford a bigger place.' Well, the WWE did TV and PPV in the above two cities for many years. To go back to that level now would seem like a step down.

Why didn't the Blast Areas show GAB?

Behold, the PPV logo:

I'm sure WWE has the tapes of it, since they tape damn near everything. But anyone else having a copy? Nah.

You make it sound like they only say that when it it really IS sold out.

Bradley Center in Milwaukee, WI seats 19,000 people. Gund Arena in Cleveland, OH seats 20,000 people Philips Arena in Atlanta, GA seats 15,000 people. Save Mart Center in Fresno, CA seats 15,000 people. Mellon Arena in Pittsburgh, PA seats 17,000 people. Staples Center in Los Angeles, CA seats 19,000 people. Those don't look like 'smaller' arenas to me. They're not domes, but it's not like WWE is holding PPVs in Saginaw, MI or Florence, SC again, either.

Where the heck IS the No Mercy poster, anyway?

No, that was No Mercy (which will be held in East Rutherford, NJ on October 3). We've known since late June that this show would be in Milwaukee.

Thanks, HartFan!

I liked the event as a whole, but the Sasaki match isn't anything to write home about,

"Survival of the Sickest" by Saliva.

Because she was strongarmed into having sex with Kane, then she agreed to the stip as the last possible way to get away from him. She made the choice to sign the contract because there was no alternative. Basically, the sympathy for Lita is based on the fact that the last two or three months she has been controlled by a hulking monster whose physical strength and brutish singlemindedness render her helpless.

..Not only is he beaten, he's got a MAD wedgie too.

And now Orton rides the Parade of Finishers.

All this needs is a tire iron.

RKO-> win.

Orton's OVW bodypress missed.

Wrenching the neck.

LOOKIT that headlock.

Orton raking his own face to distract himself? YES!

PERFECT eyepoke! Q: What advice would you give to people of the future? Randy Orton: Don't be a dick. -from his site.

A big neon green 'SASKATOON '92' sign.

The kanji tattoo on Batista's left arm says 'heaven's messenger.'
