Guest Staravenger Report post Posted August 15, 2004 Only get to see the matches for like 9 days. Can't be saved to computer that I know of. I think WWE did something to protect webcast sharing too, but don't quote me on that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2004 Why don't they ever use the kickass runway to the ring? You know the one. It's used alot in Japan, and it stops level with the ring apron. That's awesome. One reason might be that you can't 1) not be obvious when running in, 2) slide underneath the ropes, or 3) brawl outside too much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BHK 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2004 ECW used it for Living Dangerously one year(I think) and Taz suplexed Bam Bam through it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2004 ECW used it many other times. That doesn't eliminate the flaws it has. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeDirt 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2004 If Heidenreich interferes in the Taker/JBL match, what are the odds that he completely botches things? He'll probably run in and have to kick Taker, but botch it and fall on his ass. But who knows... Anyways, I haven't watched Smackdown in several months. How have they been building up Heidenreich? Is he going to have some old gimmick like so many other guys on SD recently? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Age 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2004 Oh don't get me wrong, I don't want it used all the time, but it can make for a nice change of pace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Downhome 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2004 I stopped ordering webcasts after they raised the price for them. I refuse to order another one untill they give me the option of ordering a $17.95 version. That said, my father ordered SummerSlam tonight, so I'll get to see this one at least.

Guest Staravenger Report post Posted August 15, 2004 Rob Van Dam vs. Rene Dupree is the Heat Match. RVD went from an interesting Intercontinental Title/Cross-Promotion in 2002 vs. Benoit, to being Kanes bitch in 2003, and is now the Heat match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slickster 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2004 The entrance set has a big arch-shaped tron (which must have been a bitch to coordinate). Lilian says BAH-tista. Jericho with the heelish promo. I like how he said "the Intercontinental Title-yeah!" in the middle of his promo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianChick 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2004 Alright, so Jericho's the tweener. Was the crowd cheering or booing? My TV isn't very good... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Rrrsh Report post Posted August 15, 2004 Man they should have made Jericho go full blown heel for Tornoto and left out Batista. He has no point to the match, just give him the strap tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They should have brought back "Fight" from Summerslam 2002. Fits the event perfectly. Or, at the very least, used the original Summertime Blues. It's such a better version, and would go with the PPV better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Undying Fury Report post Posted August 15, 2004 Well I'm a bit upset over missing Benoit/Orton and Eddie/Angle but if they end up turning out really good I can just check the DVD out later so whatever.
