Kurt Angle Mark Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 (9) Eddie Guerrero defeated John Cena to retain the WWE United States Title. Pre-match Cena cuts a great anti-Binghamton promo calling all the women trailer trash and telling us to kiss his a$$ ( didn't bother me, I don't live there...thank god!). Match seemed a bit rushed after Guerrero missed a frog splash and seemed to injure his elbow...must have been legit as the trainer came out almost immediately. They wrapped up quick due to the injury with Guerrero smacking Cena with the U.S. title and getting the win. Post-match, Eddie and the trainer walked back to the locker room with Guerrero holding his arm very low at his side. credit: Pwtorch.com
CanadianChick Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 Hopefully, he just tweaked it and it's nothing serious.
tpww7 Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 Hopefully not another repeat of his WWE debut Froggy..
Styles Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 Why would WWE run a house show opposite of their own PPV? Or was this from Saturday night?
Steviekick Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 Doh! I hope it's a minor injury.
Steviekick Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 "Why would WWE run a house show opposite of their own PPV? Or was this from Saturday night?" Lately WWE logic would be to run a house show on the PPV night.
Guest Mulatto Heat Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 The house show was at 2 PM EST.
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 10 bucks says this house show was better than Unforgiven
godthedog Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 looks like it's back to the painkillers for eddie.
Steviekick Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 That's actually kinda cool. If I had the money, i think it would be fun to hit up a house show before going home to see a PPV
Enigma Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 I still don't understand the logic of running a house show against RAW.
CanadianChick Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 It's no against the PPV. It's just on the same day as it. It's earlier in the day. People can still watch both.
Enigma Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 I'm talking about on Monday nights, when they put on a Smackdown house show. That has never made sense to me.
Guest ToddRoyal Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 Makes sense to me. The WWE is going to make a lot more money off a house show than off 1000 people watching Raw. They make that weeks advertising money anyway. If the House show is really good, the people in attendance would be more likely to watch Raw next week, and you build a dedicated audience. (In theory, ignoring the fact that Raw is usually less than thrilling.) Running opposite a PPV however, would be bad business because people would be paying $35 to watch that and this way you're getting BOTH buys (again in theory). So this way actually makes a lot of sense. Run house shows (which individual people pay for) against TV (which they don't) but not against PPV (which they do.)
justsoyouknow Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 Is it a rule that both Chavo and Eddie can't be together for more than two months before one gets injured? Sure seems that way.
