haVoc Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 World Heavyweight Title Match Goldberg vs. Kane vs. Triple H WWE Intercontinental Title Match Special Ref: Mick Foley Rob Van Dam vs. Randy Orton World Tag Team Titles Turmoil Match The Dudley Boyz vs. Garrison Cade & Mark Jindrak vs. La Resistance vs. Val Venis & Lance Storm vs. Rosey & The Hurricane vs. Scott Steiner & Test Trish Stratus & Lita vs. Chris Jericho & Christian Shawn Michaels vs. Batista Mark Henry vs. Booker T How does the tag title match work? Also, the thought of Booker/Henry getting almost 1/2 hour is scary.
Guest Ghettoman Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 Plus Austins return and it seems about right.
Guest Dynamite Kido Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 I am guessing that the Tag Team Termoil match will be a gauntlet. I really see there being a shitload of filler material, as this PPV looks to be short on match length (minus the Tag Termoil)
ChrisMWaters Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 Tag Team Turmoil Rules, as explained last night: Two teams start the match. When one team is eliminated, a new team enters the match. Last team standing are the tag team champs.
ChrisMWaters Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 Also...thinking back... This is Hurricane's first PPV he's competed in since what? King of the Ring 02?
Guest RoyalBlue Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 I'm guessing something akin to the redneck triatholon to fill up the space of a match.
Slickster Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 Actually, with the Tag Team Turmoil, that's TEN matches: Kane-GB-HHH Orton-RVD HBK-Batista Booker T- Mark Henry Jerichristian-Trish/Lita Tag Team Turmoil Team #1 -#2 #2-#3 #3-#4 #4-#5 #5-#6
OldSchoolWrestling Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 Actually, with the Tag Team Turmoil, that's TEN matches: Kane-GB-HHH Orton-RVD HBK-Batista Booker T- Mark Henry Jerichristian-Trish/Lita Tag Team Turmoil Team #1 -#2 #2-#3 #3-#4 #4-#5 #5-#6 The Tag Team Turmoil match from No Way Out 2002 lasted a combined 14:12. If you consider 5 matches in 14 minutes individual matches, Vince Russo will love you.
Guest Fook Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 Tag team turmoil could be considered a bunch of separate matches, but they'll play off the fatigue factor ("They've already defeated two teams, and now they have to face these guys!") for quick finishes. I fully expect the ME to go 25+ minutes. Trips loves those long matches.

Last team standing are the tag team champs. That actually sounds pretty fun. I'm assuming only one man has to be pinned in order for the team to be eliminated. Is that correct?

I'm assuming only one man has to be pinned in order for the team to be eliminated. Is that correct? From what I'm assuming, yes. I'd still like them to replace Test and Steiner or La Res with Molly and Victoria...and have them get the upset win for the belts for some cooky reason. Think of it...Molly Holly: Women's Champion AND World Tag Team Champion... ...sorry, getting back to reality now.
Guest OnlyMe Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 I'm assuming only one man has to be pinned in order for the team to be eliminated. Is that correct? That's the way it's worked before. There's usually some VERY quick pins - say: #1: Dudleyz vs. Rosey + Hurricane - Dudleyz win by DQ, after a Rosey chairshot #2: Dudleyz vs. Lance / Val - Lance gets quick pin after the chairshot etc etc
Adam Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 This is the frst WWE PPV that I will be seeing since SummerSlam, and I haven't seen a RAW or SmackDown broadcast since the night after Unforgiven. Im actually not that worried.
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 Jesus Christ. Can't Triple H take himself out of the title picture for just one PPV? I mean it's been 16 months since he appeared in a non-title match on a PPV.

Mecha Mummy Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 Also...thinking back... This is Hurricane's first PPV he's competed in since what? King of the Ring 02? Wrestling, yes. He appears in a backstage angle at Backlash or Judgment Day, though.
The Ghost of bps21 Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 Hmm... It sure is great that Matt Hardy jumped to Raw.
Bored Posted December 9, 2003 Report Posted December 9, 2003 Seriously are any of those matches going to break **? Its pretty pathetic when Booker T/Mark Henry might be match of the night as their first one-one-on match when Booker won was shockingly watchable and a good ** t.v. match. Michaels always brings the working boots for PPVs but don't know if he can get anything breaking *1/2 out of Batista. Prefer they just cut promos on each other for 20 minutes and that would be more entertaining than them wrestling.

Yes but even Hogan didn't go for such long periods. Especially with the short attention span in wrestling these days. I mean who was the last WWF Champ to get a 10 month reign? And a heel at that. I just see no need for Trips to be interjected into this match when he's been basically the only guy to get a shot at the title in the last month. I mean 3 shots in 2 weeks is a bit much for a guy who's been part timing it since the Summer and wasn't even on tv to promote his last PPV title shot.

The last reign by a heel that size was either Yokozuna or Superstar Billy Graham
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted December 10, 2003 Report Posted December 10, 2003 He went from middle/late December to late September.
Lil' Bitch Posted December 10, 2003 Report Posted December 10, 2003 World Heavyweight Title Goldberg vs. Kane vs. Triple H Intercontinental Title Special Ref: Mick Foley Rob Van Dam vs. Randy Orton World Tag Team Titles Turmoil Match The Dudley Boyz vs. Garrison Cade & Mark Jindrak vs. La Resistance vs. Val Venis & Lance Storm vs. Rosey & The Hurricane vs. Scott Steiner & Test Shawn Michaels vs. Batista Mark Henry vs. Booker T You know I really don't have a problem with the card except for... Trish Stratus & Lita vs. Chris Jericho & Christian I mean, seriously, what the fuck, WWE? Oh, and a 7th match wouldn't be asking for too much either.
deancoles Posted December 10, 2003 Report Posted December 10, 2003 I can see an impromptu match with Jericho and Christian because of the tag match.
BifEverchad Posted December 10, 2003 Report Posted December 10, 2003 I can see an impromptu match with Jericho and Christian because of the tag match. I see this PPV going down the shitter faster than Bad Blood did. Yeah, thats right....I went "there".
