Guest Trivia247 Posted April 28, 2003 Report Posted April 28, 2003 gee I want them to send me one of those in the mail, how did you get it?
Guest webmasterofwrestlegame Posted April 28, 2003 Report Posted April 28, 2003 I am on their mailing list they use to send out updates and stuff. Its a monster questionnaire, and some fo the questions are so poorly constructed I nearly gave up completing it.
Guest DawnBTVS Posted April 28, 2003 Report Posted April 28, 2003 Where would we return this? I'm actually thinking of filling it out...
Guest Aero Posted April 28, 2003 Report Posted April 28, 2003 Yes, I just filled mine out five minutes ago. I live in Jersey, BTW. Interesting survery, and I was 100% honest for mine, not that it'll make a difference, but might as well. There was that string of questions with answers "RAW, Smackdown, Both, Neither"... every answer I gave was either Smackdown or Neither. Go figure...
rising up out of the back seat-nuh Posted April 28, 2003 Report Posted April 28, 2003 cool. Its good to know hey're at lest asking bout things smarks want them to do. It's also funny they found more over "dare-devils" than hosses.
Guest TheHulkster Posted April 28, 2003 Report Posted April 28, 2003 That's a much better survey than the previous one, I gotta say. It's a lot more thorough.
Guest webmasterofwrestlegame Posted April 28, 2003 Report Posted April 28, 2003 What got to me was that on some of the questions that said 'what would make you buy more...' or 'I prefer' there were no answers that enabled me to say 'more wrestling' or 'better wrestling' - just crap about matching their programming to my soap tastes.
Patty O'Green Posted April 28, 2003 Report Posted April 28, 2003 I just got this a couple of seconds ago, on an e-mail account I haven't checked in a year.
Guest Dmann2000 Posted April 28, 2003 Report Posted April 28, 2003 When asking if I'd like more "funny or witty" superstars I was afraid what their definitions of "funny and witty" would be? *dog poop, lots of dog poop*
Guest Slapnuts00 Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 I was just about to post this! In fact go here http://surveys.wwe.com/ to fill out 4 WWE surverys. The first 20 questions for all are the same but maybe we can get our voices heard...
Guest papacita Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 Urban, Hip Hop, Funky ...Funky????? FUNKY????!!!
Guest Slapnuts00 Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 <Dusty Rhodes>FUNKY LIKE A MONKEY!</Dusty Rhodes>
Guest eiker_ir Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 OMGZZZZZZZZZ FLASH FUNKZ IN COMIG BACKZZZZZ~!!!!11!1
Guest HellSpawn Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 I live in the UK and some of these questions are clearly for American's... How about this... 20. Where do you live? United States Canada Europe Africa Asia Australia South America U.S. Military Base Other Well, I live in Mexico, so... nope, thats not EU or Canada, neither South America, Africa? Europe? Asia? No US MB? Hell No! So, its "other" for me. I cant believe the WWE totally forgot either North America or Central America.
Guest kane3212321 Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 New "big" super-muscle Superstars (Brock Lesnar™, etc.) New "funny or witty" Superstars More new Superstars who are daredevils who can do amazing stunts (Rob Van Dam™, Rey Mysterio™, etc.) What if I just want good wrestlers who mix up their styles like Guerrero?
Guest Galactic Gigolo Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 <Dusty Rhodes>FUNKY LIKE A MONKEY!</Dusty Rhodes> I filled them out during Raw, though I absolutely refuse to fill out those first 20 questions multiple times (why not combine them all into one quiz for those who want to do all?), so I just did the first 5 and then went onto the new questions. I was surprised the WWE had my option down for live events. I'm comped at everything I go to, and that was an option.
