Guest NoSelfWorth Report post Posted May 17, 2003 Jim Quigley just sent word that when he got home from work today, there was a call on his answering machine from none other than Triple H. In the recorded message, H basically did a mini promo about being the general and "reminded" Quigley (and whoever else got the call) that this Sunday is the Judgment Day PPV. I believe that the call was initiated by Comcast Cable because I also got one from them earlier today that showed up on my caller ID, but I didn't pick it up. That would certainly lead me to believe that they don't have as many pre-orders for the show as they would like. I can't say I am surprised. Both Quigley and myself have never gotten one of these before and it is my understanding that Comcast went into their database of people who have bought WWE shows in the past and sent out this reminder.

Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted May 17, 2003 How much you wanna bet that there's some kind of hidden message in the call saying him and Kev are the two best workers on RAW. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest My Eyebrow is on fire Report post Posted May 17, 2003 I can only imagine the dog at the dinner table tactics the WWE will use when the RAW Only PPV's start hitting .01 buyrates. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Memphis Report post Posted May 17, 2003 That damn Jericho, if he wasn't stealing all of Nash's heat on RAW the other week the crowd would be HOT for this match and the buyrate would be through the roof. /mark M Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Slingshot Suplex Report post Posted May 17, 2003 I had completely forgotten about it but this thread reminded me........I got one of those calls too before,I think,Wrestlemania? The prerecorded message was Hogan,if I remember correctly. It was kinda surreal/bizarre. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Mulatto Heat Report post Posted May 17, 2003 I had hhh call me yesterday, pretty funny considering i hate hhh. I also had Kane call me before no mercy last year And remember, just before last year's No Mercy there was big concern over too few buys, as well as only 3000 or 4000 tickets sold in the arena.

Guest Reservoir_Kitty Report post Posted May 17, 2003 Judgement day on sunday? I think i'll go to the movies to watch The Matrix, for the 4th time. Amen. ...Well, I haven't seen it yet, that's what Sunday's for. I might consider watching the PPV if a wrestler (albeit one I like) came to my DOOR and gave me a friendly reminder to watch Judgement Day. I would chuckle with glee if I actually got a call like that. I'd 'forget' to order the stupid, sucky thing just out of spite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
