Enigma Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 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. credit: PWInsider
Robert Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 That name sucks. I'm going to that show, and I thought it was gonna be Halloween Havoc.
Downhome Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Are we going to see something "taboo", like a returning Katie Vick?
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 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."
The Mandarin Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 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.
2GOLD Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 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.
Lil' Bitch Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Halloween Havoc > the new lame ass PPV name
Guest Staravenger Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Is something wrong with the name "Next Tuesday In (Insert State Name)"?
Guest Trivia247 Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 So what this is like a Tuesday in Texas repeat?
NoCalMike Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 well at least I didn't bet any money that they would name it "Low Buyrate"
LaParkaYourCar Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 Taboo Tuesday?? I guess this means Vince is finally doing an incest angle?
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 Didn't we already get that during the HHH/Steph wedding ceremony a few years ago?
DerangedHermit Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 I wish it was Halloween Havoc or This Tuesday in Texas, Tennessee, Tupelo Miss, Toledo, Tampa or Taxachusetts. Taboo Tuesday sounds really, really awful.
razazteca Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 How the hell are they going to hype a PPV, 9 days after the previous one? A week long title reign for Batista?
Guest Staravenger Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 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

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...
algrim Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 You'd think with all the money Vince pays these guys they'd come up with a better name....... Never mind.
Youth N Asia Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 I know these guys can't come up with creative storylines or anything...but you'd think they could come up with a better name then that turd
cawthon777 Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 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.
Guest Brian Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 Manic Monday I wish it was Sunday. I'm going to be the only person that gets that.
Cheex Incarnate Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 Taboo Tuesday is silly....Taboosday is the way it should have gone. -Cheex
res37618 Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 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.
res37618 Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 Manic Monday I wish it was Sunday. I'm going to be the only person that gets that. I get it . . . I marked for The Bangles - Susannah Hoffs is the hottest.
Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 I wish it was Sunday. cuz that's my fun day
Rob E Dangerously Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 Halloween is on Sunday having a Halloween PPV 12 days before it would be stupid
res37618 Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 Halloween is on Sunday having a Halloween PPV 12 days before it would be stupid No more stupid than naming a PPV "Taboo Tuesday"
what Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 I guess that means they blame the "Great American Bash" name for that PPV doing poorly. That PPV bought well, actually.
cawthon777 Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 I wish it was Sunday. cuz that's my fun day My 'I don't have to run' day ... I <3 Susannah Hoffs
Guest croweater Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 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.
Krankor Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 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.
