Guest Caliban Posted July 29, 2002 Report Posted July 29, 2002 Bringing Nitro back would alienate a whole lot of WWE fans. It will be a bumper show though. I'm also looking forward to next January, for RAW's 10th anniversary. Hopefully we'll get some cool history packages, WWE is good at that, even if they like to revise their history.
Guest El Satanico Posted July 30, 2002 Report Posted July 30, 2002 They already lost the casual fans. And renaming the show won't bother the die hards. So alienating the crowd isn't something they have to worry about. It could also bring the large section of WCW fans who haven't watched WWeee since WCW died out of hiding.
Guest OlympicHeroY2J Posted August 3, 2002 Report Posted August 3, 2002 Another thing you have to consider about this Raw.....the ads for it here in New York call it "The last Raw of the Year." Interesting.... I DO see it becoming WWE Nitro, if for only a little while. Now if it works is a whole other story
Guest Showstoppa Icon Posted August 3, 2002 Report Posted August 3, 2002 i thaught that at 1st too, theyre actually billing it as the last madison sq. garden raw of the year , not the last raw of the year .
Guest NaturalBornThriller4:20 Posted August 3, 2002 Report Posted August 3, 2002 You-know..... Since-it's-the-500th-Episode-and-the-Night-after-Summerslam, I-and-I-know-many-others-get-the-feeling-that-a-certain "Former-Football-Player-turned-WCW-Wrestler-who had-a-undefeated-Streak-until-Kevin-Nash-defeated-him at-Starrcade-1998"Someone-might-show-up. Hmmm.....Who-could-that-be?
Guest Showstoppa Icon Posted August 3, 2002 Report Posted August 3, 2002 hmmm i think ur right NBT, Mongo McMichael will come back on raw after summerslam.
Guest Trivia247 Posted August 3, 2002 Report Posted August 3, 2002 You would think by now that those WCW fans would have came over by now. They'd split perhaps from WWE to XWF to NWA TNA but majority of the big names went to WWE. What would be the point in Changing names to a Dead show?
Guest NaturalBornThriller4:20 Posted August 3, 2002 Report Posted August 3, 2002 No! Your-Fool. It's-Kevin-Greene-and-Reggie-White! Moron.....
Guest The Czech Republic Posted August 3, 2002 Report Posted August 3, 2002 "What would be the point in Changing names to a Dead show?" Bischoff is reviving "his creation" to take out WWF from the inside. He'll sign back Benoit & Guerrero, the cruiser division, and all the other WCW names.
Guest converge241 Posted August 6, 2002 Report Posted August 6, 2002 hey so i guess this theory is blown since JR said it was the 480th last night...
Guest Invader3k Posted August 6, 2002 Report Posted August 6, 2002 Um, didn't they say last night on RAW that it was the 480th show? That sure as hell doesn't make the night after Summerslam #500, regardless of when/if they turn it into WWE Nitro or whatever.
Guest converge241 Posted August 6, 2002 Report Posted August 6, 2002 "Um, didn't they say last night on RAW that it was the 480th show? That sure as hell doesn't make the night after Summerslam #500, regardless of when/if they turn it into WWE Nitro or whatever." yes they did, hence my post about the theory being blown when i dug this thread out of page 3 and added that BTW, the 500th would have to be either dec 23rd or the 30th. i say either or in case if they didnt do a raw on labor day. They always do though so its safe to say: EPISODE 500 ON MONDAY DEC 23RD 2002 IMI, they should have lied and co-incided it with labor day since thats when Nitro started and Biscoff could change the show then saying he was re-starting the show on the anniversary of the birth of nitro . 7 year anniversary.
Guest nWoScorpion Posted August 6, 2002 Report Posted August 6, 2002 Atleast 3 or 4 people have the fuckin brains to realize that if the last RAW was the 480th (if im not mistaken), then unless WWE holds a RAW every night they MIGHT make 500 after Summerslam. LOL. Or It will be in December-January (depending on any special events to prevents it o not air)
Guest converge241 Posted August 7, 2002 Report Posted August 7, 2002 "(depending on any special events to prevents it o not air) " like the wesminster dog show? lol sorry USA network joke for any newbies
Guest Michael Joel Benoit Posted August 7, 2002 Report Posted August 7, 2002 This is what I expect what will happened on the RAW the night after Summerslam: -Brock interview/presenting of the belt by Heyman -HBK Farewell speech -HBK Tribute video -Eric presnts RAW IS NITRO!!!! This will be a historic night. And I will be there to see it live!
Guest AnnieEclectic Posted August 7, 2002 Report Posted August 7, 2002 On the last (Aug. 5th) episode of RAW they did shill for episode 500, but mentioned which episode it was this week.... #480. They aren't big time shilling, just mentioning it, (mainly during Dreamer's HC retain.... fuck you JR, I actually like Dreamer quite a bit, call the match or shut up) probably just to plant the seed of rememberance. Then when they're 10 eps away, they'll do some crappy countdown thing or something. -Annie
