Guest Dids Posted August 29, 2003 Report Posted August 29, 2003 So my best friend just got digital cable- he's a "retired" wrestling fan- but I've convinced him to check out the 1 cent PPV on the 10th. However, that's poker night- so we might not be able to watch it- will TNA be replying this- or is it just a one shot deal?
Styles Posted August 29, 2003 Report Posted August 29, 2003 Probably. Check your on screen cable guide! TNA usually replays several times throughout the week on the various In Demand channels. Usually Wednesday night at 10 pm, Sunday at 2 pm and I think now theyre adding some more too.
Guest TheArchiteck Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 1 Cent ppv? There not really 1 cent are they??
teke184 Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 1 Cent ppv? There not really 1 cent are they?? There is exactly one, which will be a Best of TNA deal to get people interested in the product. This could be a very good idea for them, depending on a few things. The costs of putting together a show from old footage should be negligable because they own all of it and would only need to have an editor put it together. The real cost would be that of having a PPV slot that would not bring in any profits. If the cost of the PPV slot is decent, they might be able to make it up by increased buyrates over the next few months.
Guest Dmann2000 Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 Well I know what I'm watching on the 10th
Guest Choken One Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 So is it a BEST OF or a Actual Show?
Guest The Real Nosferatu Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 Best of the World Title I heard. so Its probably gonna have Raven v. Jeff Jarrett on there. And a crappy Ken Shamrock title defense. LOL
Guest Boo_Bradley Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 Is that Terry Taylor interviewing Micheal Shane in that sig?
Tawren Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 I think it is Best of World Title Matches on DirecTV, and on inDemand it is Best of TNA.
Styles Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 Is that Terry Taylor interviewing Micheal Shane in that sig? Yup. He was filling in this week because Scott Hudson had a "prior commitment". Anyway, just to clarify, the 1 cent PPV on In Demand will be a BEST OF show feature clips, full matches (the AMW/XXX cage match and Raven vs. Jarret are confirmed) plus some new footage. If you have Direct TV, you will not see this show (since Direct TV did not agree to the 1 cent stipulation). Instead Direct TV will show a preview of the upcoming TNA DVD "Best of World Title Matches" priced at the regular $9.95 price. Hope that clarifies.
Guest The Real Nosferatu Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 Oops my bad. I switched the networks shows around.
The Ghost of bps21 Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 If it was 9.99 I would have passed...since I've seen all the stuff already... But for a penny I'm in!
Guest Choken One Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 Maybe it's me but advertising for a 1 cent ppv makes your product look cheap... I would have sold it for 1.99 instead...
Guest Choken One Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 Speaking of which...Is it two hours and FULL matches?
Guest DRAWMUH! Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 The two matches that have been advertised are in full. I doubt any other matches shown will be in full but a penny to see the tag match and raven/jarrett is so worth it.
Guest Choken One Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 will they have any of the Older X stuff?
Guest The Real Nosferatu Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 Whoever said you can't buy anything good for a penny anymore was wrong. DEAD Wrong. Marge: do you have to talk that way? Homer: No not really. Sorry, went into Simpsons quote mode.
The Ghost of bps21 Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 I think it's genius. It's as close to being on free TV as TNA is going to get. Think of it as a brilliant advertising gimmick.
Jack_Bauer Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 Who needs older X stuff with AMW v XXX in the cage.
Guest The Real Nosferatu Posted August 30, 2003 Report Posted August 30, 2003 Knowing how cheap some people are, they'll just wait til they show the free stuff in a history of... way.
Guest CyrisB Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 The One Cent PPV will be replayed about 25 times on iN DEMAND (including an All Day Ticket on 9/11) and all of the replays will also cost One Cent.
Guest Dmann2000 Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 The One Cent PPV will be replayed about 25 times on iN DEMAND (including an All Day Ticket on 9/11) and all of the replays will also cost One Cent. How's that for a way to spend 9/11?
Guest Choken One Posted August 31, 2003 Report Posted August 31, 2003 better then watching fucking retrospectives and realizing we STILL haven't found the guy responsible.
SpikeFayeJettEdBebop Posted September 1, 2003 Report Posted September 1, 2003 Man, I got DirectTV, and the damn "Best if the WORLD title" isnt gonna have the XXX/AMW match....shit...im not paying 9.99 for a preview of the DVD.....
