The Mandarin 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2003 What pay-per-views have you skipped on so far this year that you've had the chance to buy? Backlash- It just looked like crap. Plain and simple. Backlash is always a "down-time" for WWE booking. Judgment Day- It wasn't worth buying just for the ladder match. Vengeance- I regret this one, but I didn't feel up to watching TV. Should have ordered the replay. Yeah. The rest I've all ordered. For the most part, they were all good. Let's not talk about Bad Blood though. Ugh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Downhome 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2003 I have watched every WWE PPV this year. The upcoming Smackdown PPV, however, is the first one which I might just skip. I don't think that I've ever cared for a Pro. Wrestling show any less than I care for this upcoming PPV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zetterberg is God 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2003 Well I only missed one (Unforgiven) due to a VCR mistake. But since I want to complete my collection, I'll be ordering No Mercy, even if it is complete crap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HHH's 'Roid Needle Report post Posted October 15, 2003 I have not missed a PPV since Wrestlemania 8. And that was only because I was attending a dumbass birthday party for a dumbass cousin. Seen every single one since then. Without a second thought. I am strange. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PsychoDriver 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2003 All of them, Last WWF PPV I ordered was Royal Rumble 99. Once Vince won it I made a vow never to order a WWF PPV again and I stuck to it. Besides the DVDs are cheaper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kahran Ramsus 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2003 I have seen them, but the only ones that I actually ordered were Royal Rumble, Mania & Vengeance. I need a reason to order a PPV rather than reasons not too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steviekick 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2003 All of them, Last WWF PPV I ordered was Royal Rumble 99. Once Vince won it I made a vow never to order a WWF PPV again and I stuck to it. Besides the DVDs are cheaper. That's my line of thinking. If it turns out it was a pretty good PPV I'll just get the DVD. I never order PPV's, but if I have a friend who is getting one and I'm inviting, you don't have to ask me twice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SamoaRowe 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2003 I don't always make it a priority to watch the PPVs live, but I do like to catch up on most of them. I've seen every WWE PPV this year at some point except for Royal Rumble (which I intend on seeing sooner or later, especially since the DVD is only 13 bucks for me because I work at Best Buy).

Besides the DVDs are cheaper. Summerslam 2003 was the first WWE PPV I've ordered at my own home (because friends came over to split the cost). I've gone to others to watch Badd Blood, and last year I saw No Mercy, Armegeddon, and Summerslam at a friends house. Besides that, I usually buy it on video or DVD (whatever is cheaper at that point). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest PowerPB13 Report post Posted October 15, 2003 Only ones I've bought this year have been the Rumble and Mania(and I went in with three other people on Mania, so it only cost me ten dollars). Says something since I had gotten every Summerslam since 1993, but I took a pass on this year's edition. Wrestlemania is the ONLY no-brainer of the year for me, but if things keep going the way they are, I'll probably pass on that next year too. -Patrick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2003 I watched Rumble, No Way Out, and Mania for free at a local bar that had a strong wrestling crowd, but it has since closed down due to a court case against it. There have been rumblings of it opening under different (re: the same, but different for legal purposes) ownership. Backlash I saw at a the closest bar that was showing wrestling, but the amount of people who were there and didn't like wrestling, causing them to insult everything they saw, was very annoying. Judgment Day was skipped because I was working, and it was a new job that I didn't feel I had put enough time into to be requesting shift changes (and of course, the JD card itself...). Bad Blood was the first PPV I paid to see, paying the movie theatre price to watch it, Vengeance, and SummerSlam (which again I was supposed to be at work for, but swithced shifts with someone). When Unforgiven rolled around, I did not feel it necessary to make arrangements to not work, so I skipped that one too. So, in short, I skipped 2 shows this year. No Mercy is iffy, as Bad Blood was not a fantastic start to the theatre experience, and combined with cab costs home (since no bus service exists that late on Sunday and niehter me nor any of my wrestling fan friends drive), another place to watch PPV for free, preferably without harassment from non-fans, will be needed. If one is not found, we'll probably end up at the same place we watched Backlash at. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
