Guest Ronixis Report post Posted November 15, 2003 Maybe it was the HOSS factor? Or maybe Cena is starting to become a star? Or maybe is was a way to sell SS big time? Whatever it was, at least Vince cant say Sex Gets Buyrates. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kahran Ramsus 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2003 Yet the ratings breakdown indicate Vince is a big ratings draw...funny isn't it Yes, but PPV buyrates are far more important and yet the ones with McMahon's on top fail miserably. Even worse than normal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2003 It's a double-leg takedown by Henderson, with Newton securing a front-face lock. Wrestlers usually twist their hips (and therefore their opponent) when moving in for a shoot so they can get side-mount - Henderson over-rotated and spun, Newton held on. Note Dave Meltzer at ring side in the white shirt You can find a Dan Henderson highlight video on Kazaa that features the move (It's actually a really good video - Henderson always manages to deliver.).

Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2003 I actually liked SmackDown this past week. Raw as well. A lot, actually. They both advanced angles, nothing was too bad, and there were quite a few matches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest THE MIGHTY THOR Report post Posted November 15, 2003 Let me make this clear guys, big ratings don't mean shit compare to low ppv buyrates and very low house show tickets' sales. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
