Enigma 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2004 "For the second time in less than a week, WWE has cancelled a match that was to involve a WWE wrestler competing with a wrestler from TNA. Last weekend a match between Abyss and Carly Colon was changed at the last minute when WWE objected to the matchup, and WWE officials have now told officials at CSWF in New Jersey that they can't move forward with a planned match between Al Snow and Ron Killings that was scheduled for April 24." credit: 1Wrestling.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karc 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2004 Al Snow wasn't an active wrestler, and WWE allowed him to wrestle in other promotions. So my theory is that they had him wrestle Tajiri on Monday so that he would be an active WWE wrestler, and thus, bar him from wrestling anywhere else. Now, what I want to know is how far in advance the WWE knew about the interpromotional match, for I think they made Snow wrestle very close to the match (two weeks), just so they can pull the rug out from under CSWF and TNA for the sole reason of hurting their businesses.

Lightning Flik 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2004 Why cancel this match but allow Al Snow vs. Raven to go ahead a few months back? Because TNA didn't likely have a TV deal with Fox Sports. You know, if WWE is being this cautious about letting their wrestlers lose to TNA wrestlers, does that not say TNA might be getting that deal for sure?

Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Report post Posted April 16, 2004 Wow.....WWE is shaking in their boots over an Independant Promotion. I guess Vince has been stealing RVD's stash to make him this paranoid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toxxic 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2004 Next month: Vince doesn't want his kids playing with Jerry's kids. ShaneO and Jeff end up in a fight when Shane plays too rough. Who would I want to win? ..... It's a close one ..... I'll go with Jeff, cos he actually has SOME use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
