May 5th, 2003: It's less than a week away now...

[Guest Downhome]

I mean, it's still on, right? I was just currious as to who all is going to take part in the boycott of that night which was talked about a while back, if anyone. Are there any numbers about anyone else from other sites who joined in this or anything?

 

As I said, I'm watching no matter what, I was just wondering who was actually in on this now. The countdown begins tonight, it's less than a week away. I predict the ratings for the show will be somewhere between 3-4, as usual, but that's just me.

 

So who will be watching, and who is taking part in this boycott, now that it's upon us?

 

Sincerely,

...Downhome...

[Guest Choken One]

Nope It Failed Just as I expected...Can't help but laugh if ratings go UP for the show...

[Guest wildpegasus]

That night should at least have a good crowd since it's coming from Halifax. It'd probably be better to have a boycott a different day.

[Guest the pinjockey]

I would say with about 99% certainty that the Philadelphia area will be participating by not watching Raw next Monday.

[Guest Trivia247]

Actually i'd rather make a statement for the smarks to the WWE by having a Smark Hacker Hack into the WWE.com site.

[Guest Downhome]

Well, we'll all see soon enough, that was the "perfect night" to do it on I thought.

To do what?

Dude I've pretty much been like that since Survivor Series, so no problem here :-)

Change your sig back!

 

I'm actually looking forward to this coming RAW quite a bit, and damnit, don't get me started on Smackdown, with the debut of Mr. America, OMG~!

 

Seriously, I can't wait for that. I pray they build it and make it so it's OBVIOUSLY Hogan. Ok, this isn't the thread for this, sorry.

[Guest Mole]

I'm lost here, what's with the boycott? I'll do it if I know the reason for it.

[Guest Downhome]

A boycott for the May, 5th RAW is set up, in order to prove a point to WWE in order to get them to change the product.

[Guest mickberna]

I'm not participating. I like watching Raw.

[Guest Coffey]

Seriously, I don't think anyone took it too seriously when the post was originally made. It was just a topic to reply to a couple of times. Just like each weeks Raw & Smackdown threads.

I don't know, there were three or four guys here who took it WAY seriously.

[Guest Sakura]

I will not be watching.

 

 

I just have to ask....what is the deal with your avatar DH? It looks like it's half Benoit and half someone else.

[Guest Downhome]

I will not be watching.

It's half Benoit, and half...

 

...care to guess, or just want me to tell you?

[Agent_Bond34 0]

I think it's the Dynamite Kid on the other half, I could be wrong.

 

I don't intend on watching next Monday anyways since I'll be watching either the NBA or NHL playoffs.

 

What I'd like to know is, have I missed anything worthy of note lately?

[Guest Bannable Offense]

Wouldn't this only be effective if people boycotting had one of those Neilsen cable boxes connected to their TV? I haven't watched more than ten minutes of Raw in a year's time and I haven't seen my impact on ratings yet.

[Guest Downhome]

I have personally thought things of note have happened in the past month, but hey, I'm the biggest Goldberg mark ever, so ya know.

 

I loved Austin's return also, but once again, I'm a huge mark of his. I really enjoyed tonights RAW, it did seem to have a few changes towards the right dirrection.

 

I've never missed a WWE/WCW show since I began watching wrestling religiously, so maybe I AM just a bit bias, lol.

Tell me, I have no idea.

Agent_Bond34 is correct, it's "The Dynamite Kid" Tom Billington, heh. Two of my favorite workers of all time.

[Agent_Bond34 0]

I got it right, I RULE!..

 

Ok all joking aside, what I should have asked in my previous post was, have I missed any good storylines, good matches, promos, wrestler returns, etc?

[Guest papacita]

With the playoffs (GO SIXERS) and finals starting next week, I doubt I'll be watching Raw boycott or no boycott.

[Guest Johnny Blaze]

You know, its pretty sad. I remember when choosing between Raw and post-season games was a tough decision. I used to have to flip channels inscesantly to try not to miss anything. These days, if I watch once a month it's a lot and it provides no competition to other sports should they be on.

[Guest Mole]

Well, when were you 'gone'?

- Bischoff almost raping Trish

- The return of Ms.Charisma Linda McMahon

- No explanation for The Rock's sudden departure

- La Resistance being booked in a feud with Scott Steiner in a last-ditch, lame-ass attempt to get Steiner over. This will most likely lead to the Acolytes returning to feud with L.R.

- The furthering of the Test/Steiner feud we've all been waiting for.

- Austin and Bischoff try to be Flair/McMahon Part II in the "Whacky partners who hate each other" gimmick that failed miserably with Vince and Flair.

- Goldberg being treated as a "newbie" who needs to "earn his keep" and whatnot instead of being treated like the outsider who will come in and fuck you up.

- Booker T actually being in the same ring as 3 Minute Warning.

 

Yeah, super-dee-duper show they had there. Lots of changes in the right direction.......

 

I'm still not watching on May 5th. I said I'm gonna do something and regardless of how many people think the boycott is dead, I'm following through on my word.

[Mecha Mummy 0]

I'm not participating either. I have nothing better to do on Mondays where I'm staying with my dad and I want to see what happens to the Austin storyline, the Christian push, and Jericho's Highlight Reel.

[Guest RenegadeX28]

Well, of course, I am still watching regardless....
