WWE Announces Name of Tuesday October PPV

Recommended Posts

The World Wrestling Entertainment Raw brand PPV scheduled for Tuesday 10/19 will be titled "Taboo Tuesday." The PPV's name was revealed in a mailer sent to cable subscribers listing the WWE PPV schedule for the remainder of 2004.

 

Taboo Tuesday PPV will take place just nine days after that month's scheduled Smackdown PPV, No Mercy.

 

Last June, WWE brought the old WCW Great American Bash PPV out of mothballs as an additional Smackdown PPV event. Taboo Tuesday is the added Raw brand PPV, which brings the promotion's total number of scheduled live PPVs for 2004 to 14.

I guess that means they blame the "Great American Bash" name for that PPV doing poorly.

 

Though it seems typical WWF to replace a good name like "Halloween Havok" with a completely terrible name like "Taboo Tuesday."

That's not a good name if they don't wanna get sued by Hasbro.

 

"Jenga June" and "Don't Wake Daddy Sunday" might have to be cancelled as well.

Are we going to see something "taboo", like a returning Katie Vick?

 

The PPV will feature nothing but matches with no stupid comedy angles that all go to clean finishes.

 

You know, stuff that is Taboo to the WWE on PPV.

Is something wrong with the name "Next Tuesday In (Insert State Name)"?

Didn't we already get that during the HHH/Steph wedding ceremony a few years ago?

I wish it was Halloween Havoc or This Tuesday in Texas, Tennessee, Tupelo Miss, Toledo, Tampa or Taxachusetts.

 

Taboo Tuesday sounds really, really awful.

How the hell are they going to hype a PPV, 9 days after the previous one? A week long title reign for Batista?

Someone mentioned the PPV schedule is that No Mercy is a Smackdown PPV. I'm not sure if it's right, but I'm too lazy to check WWE.com

Unforgiven - RAW

No Mercy - SD

"Taboo Tuesday" - RAW

 

I had hoped that the pay-per-view would be named Rebellion, in place of the now-defunct UK show, so a big "ehhh" to this...

You'd think with all the money Vince pays these guys they'd come up with a better name.......

 

Never mind. ;)

I refuse to believe that's actually the name that will be used. It's just ... that bad.

 

Pop Quiz:

What comes before Taboo Tuesday?

 

 

Answer:

Manic Monday

 

 

Stay tuned in 2005 for Wacky Wednesday and 'Hawaiian Shirt Day' Friday.

I wish it was Sunday.

 

I'm going to be the only person that gets that.

Next year, we'll get Uno Thursday, Balderdash Friday, Trivial Pursuit Saturday, and my personal favorite, Naked Twister Tuesday, with the return of Mideon and Stacy Carter.

 

God, what a wretched name for a PPV. It's only saving grace is that it's a RAW show, so the matches hopefully won't be too bad.

I get it . . . I marked for The Bangles - Susannah Hoffs is the hottest.

They probably did it because it's seen as Taboo to have a PPV on a Tuesday, but Jesus, that name is so lame it'll probably affect the buy rate.

Taboo Tuesday, how lame is that. I was really hoping they would have it on Halloween and call it Halloween Havoc. And why are they having a PPV on a tuesday? They better expect a terrible buyrate. It better not be full price either.
