Backlash promotional poster

The posters are made months in advance. A lot of people are probably going to think that because Jericho & Stephanie were on the original WM poster, and they ended up being together that there's a chance every poster will be right. HHH is on the Backlash poster for a second or thrid year in a row.

those posters are made just to fuck with our heads

[Guest art_vandelay]

True, but sometimes they hold a little truth.  Like the No Mercy poster which featured Kurt Angle, who won the title at the previous PPV.  But anybody could have seen that one coming with the PPV being in his hometown and 911 and all.

[Guest Tony149]

Actually, Angle won the WWF Title at Unforgiven. SCSA was on the Unforgiven poster. The No Mercy poster Angle was on had him in a Triple Threat match vs. RVD & SCSA.

And how is that any different from what I said?

[Guest MarvinisaLunatic]

What does the poster say? I cant read it...

[Guest cobainwasmurdered]

well other than backlash, it probaly says how great hhh is after all why else bang the bosses daughter if you can't have your own ppv

[Guest saturnmark4life]

naw, posters are made months in advance as has been said. No way out had RVD all over em, and he was against friggin GOLDUST fer christ's sake.

HHH was also on the Vengeance poster.

 

Actually I'm surprised he's not on every poster...

[Guest Downhome]

I think the one poster that had the BIGGEST spoiler on it ever was the one for the King of the Ring '01. I mean really, it had an Electric Chair for the "king's throne"...

 

...was it not as obvious to all of you, as it was obvious to me, that Edge was going to win it, if based on nothing else, based on that damn poster?

 

(If you have no idea why that would be a spoiler, I'm sure someone else will enlighten you, lol.)

[Guest Just call me Dan]

Haven't ever been a fan of Edge, don't remember if he did this or not..

 

But are you referring to the elctric chair drop?

 

Where his opponent in sitting on his shoulders, he lifts them up and into a sit-down facebuster?

 

He always did that move in all of the N64 Games as his back special.

 

Just a thought, is that what you meant?

[Guest Choken One]

No...I thought the reference was "CHAIR" as in Edge's likiness of using the chair.

 

Anyways...Posters mean nothing, Foley was on it once and ws not even booked on the show before they rushed a midcard angle.

 

Looking at the poster...It looks like HHH is looking for revenge...Thus means he jobs.

Ding, ding, ding! You nailed it, that is exactly right! It wasn't just a "chair" because he used chairs, it was an Electric Chair, as the THRONE, and it OBVIOUSLY was a reference to Edge, as the move, "The Electric Chair", used to be one of his main moves...

 

...anyhow, I'm glad someone did guess this, I was hoping I wasn't the only one who could put that together, lol.

 

But like I said, I think that poster was the one that "spoiled" a PPV more than any other poster before...

 

...and that posted didn't even have a wrestler on it.

[Guest mastermind]

Well, maybe Trips couldn't make the December ppv because he wasn't ready? I mean after all he is on the booking meetings, so it may carry wait. I only say this because his girlfriend is running the show(female running a male dominated sport/entertainment makes no sense to me either). The NWO beatdown Triple H at Mania when he refuses to join the group in the main event after winning the belt from Jericho. Hogan whips him around and takes his gold belt. Backlash for Triple H, brother! Sounds like a story to me. Could work!

[Guest bps "The Truth" 21]

I guess it could work...

 

And it would certainly go a long way to the continued allienation of me by the WWF product.

 

Sounds plausible for that reason alone.
