Guest Jobber of the Week Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00008HC...01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg When in the HELL are they going to figure it out? This matchup did not sell this show! Free blowjobs to whoever worked Angle and Lesnar into the main event. They obviously had the fucking Perfect Storm of backstage drama working against them with these two wanting to take the spot.
Guest Sakura Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 Yeah, I saw this a while ago. Terrible. Why not have all 4 main events be on the cover?
Guest Mad Dog Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 Does this really surprise you? I mean they did 20+ minutes of hype a week on Smackdown.
Guest THE MIGHTY THOR Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 Well none of the matches sold the show since it was the lowest buyrate for a Mania since Mania 13.
Guest Redhawk Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 I still don't see what -- aside from shameless ass-kissing -- would possess anyone in that company not named Vince McMahon or Terry Bollea to think that was the best match of the night. I was there, and I can safely say that it was a comedy match at best. My section was not too smark-heavy, and the reaction over there was a combo of laughter, nostalgia, and just reacting in general to two characters (McMahon, who's been a heel forever, and Hogan, who's been a face forever). No one is accusing that match of being good who isn't on the payroll. And after the event, no one was talking about that match either.
Guest the 1inch punch Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 You know, given the title, I thought it was Triple H
Guest Youth N Asia Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 I don't have a problem with it, even though I don't think they built the match up right. If it couldn't have been Angle/Lesnar this is the next best thing. And 1inch, you sig should read "The Donnas (all but the fat one) mmmmmmmmmm"
Guest The Notorious CRD Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 I don't think anyone should be surprised about this given that McMahon vs. Hogan was given way more hype than HHH vs. Booker or Angle vs. Lesnar. That being said, I like the idea of having all 4 main events on the cover. Too bad that won't happen.
Guest Youth N Asia Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 Almost suprised it's not a shot of just Hunter taking up the whole cover spitting water
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 yeah, I figured it'd be HHH too, though at the moment I can't remember who he wrestled. EDIT: Booker T
Guest Miss Indy Queen Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 (edited) I figured that would have been the cover to the DVD since they were pimping that shirt for Wrestlemania, although the other shirt they were selling at Mania was better with all the guys main eventing the show. That definitely would have been a better cover. Edited April 29, 2003 by Miss Indy Queen
Guest Jobber of the Week Posted April 29, 2003 Report Posted April 29, 2003 although the other shirt they were selling at Mania was better with all the guys main eventing the show. Yes! I have that shirt, it's very nice. The match wasn't too bad, but my section was commenting on the camera work (not a good sign) until Piper made his limp-in. Some guy behind me kept shouting "FUCK HOGAN! WE GOT PIPER!" We got it the third time you said it, buddy.
