Spike TV's video game award show to include

[Kurt Angle Mark 0]

On Spike TV's video games award show, they are advertising Raw vs. Smackdown matches at the show. There are scheduled to be a first-run Raw vs. Smackdown match between significant names as well as a second match on the show. I believe the high profile match will be taped Tuesday night in San Jose.

So they're giving away a guaranteed money feud (RAW vs. SD!) for a throwaway segment on an award show.

 

Brilliant.

And to think, I thought it would be HHH and Brock Lesnar there playing Smackdown: HCTP against each other. Right after the F5, HHH would pull Brock's controller plug and win with a Pedigree.

[Guest Ghettoman]

No there not, it's either gonna be something with the two video game franchises or there going to have wrestlers take eachother on in a game.

 

But yeah it's Meltz, so go on as if it were surely true in every way.....

I wouldn't say that Raw vs. Smackdown is "guaranteed money".

[Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes]

It's so going to be a match played on Smackdown: HCtP.

 

 

HHH cheating against Brock would be hilarious.

Maybe it will be Dudley Boys vs Big Show & Albert playing WM19 on Gamecube. The Road to Wrestlemania makes a pitstop at this pointless award show.

You are SO right.

I'd mark for that.

Could it be Raw 2 vs. Smackdown: HCTP?

[Guest The Rising Star]

Is Spike the company that develops Fire Pro Wrestling video games? Do they have a TV-channel as well?

[Guest JRE]

Could it be Raw 2 vs. Smackdown: HCTP?

No. Raw 2 doesn't get marketed....at all.

 

On heat, it was revealed that Coach and Al Snow will attend the show...

I don't know if I should laugh or cry at the stupidity in that statement if the creaters of FPW (IN JAPAN!) have a T.V network called Spike T.V.

Meltzer just said it will be Rey vs Jericho.

[Styles 0]

Just announced on Wrestling Observer Live:

Rey Mysterio vs. Chris Jericho. Tape this Tuesday, airing at the Spike awards.

[DangerousDamon 0]

OMG, I want to see that match now.......

 

unless of course it's in the video game....

 

no wait, I STILL would want to see that match....

[A Happy Medium 0]

Have Jericho and Rey ever had a match in WWE? I remember them having a couple of fights in passing last Summer on Smackdown, but other than that, nothing.

 

If it's a real match, I'm so watching that show...or maybe just Tivo-ing it.

[Guest JumpinJackFlash]

Why is the WWE advertising this if its coming on during Smackdown?

[CanadianChick 0]

Awesome. I was hoping for Matt Morgan/Batista, but I'll take what I can get.

[Guest JMA]

Why does the WWE have to appear on EVERYTHING Spike TV related?

No, it's Spike Lee's personal TV station

 

Haven't you been paying attention?

But I thought that was BET.

The same reason Mizark Henry keeps appearing WWE television. Viacom invested a ridiculous amount of money in WWE programming, just like the WWE invested a sick amount of money in Mark Henry. Both companies feel the need to try to get blood from the proverbial stones they've purchased, and they're pushing them as much as possible.

I want Nathan Jones/Mark Henry.

The night Rey debuted was Jericho's last Smackdown. Rey interfered in Jericho's cage match. I do believe.

[Guest Megatron]

I'll bet it's Jericho/Rey playing themselves in a video game match. But shouldn't Booker T be the one on the show since he's always criticized for playing video games backstage?

[AndrewTS 0]

I'm surprised they didn't do hoss vs. cruiser, because then HCTP's shitty character balance could reflect what happens on TV.

[tpww7 0]

The match is real, not a video game, taped at the Smackdown taping.

Maybe the fact that Raw is the highest rated show on Spike TV and the only show to get in the top 15 for the channel everyweek.

We're also talking about a station that has Star Trek: The Next Generation as 35% of it's programming.
