claydude14 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2004 Oh shit they deliver on the big 5 poster again. The Suvivor Series anime one was cool, I might actually buy this Rumble poster on shopzone. This poster confirms Batista won't be main eventing New Year's Revolution. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Only The Strong Survive 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2004 Looks like Batista in line for that monster push everyone wants him to get. Orton was on the Vengeance poster before winning the title. I like the poster just the same. That Rumble poster is kind of cool but also sort of... lame. The slogan is definitely the lame part. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

notJames 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2004 You didn't have an award-winning musical named after you. Very clever poster. I approve. And not just because I love West Side Story. Okay, that's really the only reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Fook_Theta Report post Posted December 2, 2004 Anyone else got a hardon for Asai vs Big Dave? It would be strange to see Batista put over Asai, but it would give him even more credibilty and buildup to Batista vs HHH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

notJames 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2004 …what the fuck is that thing after Royal Rumble, it looks like something from the game shoots and ladders. It's a stylized fire escape. Perhaps this will help put the pieces together for you. So No-Longer-Ulitmo Asai is coming back for another go? Have a nice trip, see you in the fall.

Guest Fook_Theta Report post Posted December 2, 2004 It is only a pipe dream, admittingly. It would be an excellent tie-in, especially if next year is the year of the Dragon. Asai has been back stage at both Raw and I believe Smackdown talking about a return. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To Vince, Asai is just another little Japanese cruiserweight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Amazing Rando 0 Report post Posted December 3, 2004 It's good to see Jeff Hardy's flailing body on a WWE poster again!! Notice him about to perform the sloppy Swanton above Chris Jericho, who is hauntingly standing at the bottom of the ladder (as always). See: THAT is reading too much into things.

Guest Reservoir_Kitty Report post Posted December 3, 2004 The Batista poster is fan-freaking-tastic. If I didn't hate show exclusive PPVs, I'd order that one to support its tasty posterboy. The Royal Rumble poster is surprisingly clever. Too bad the show probably won't be. They wasted all their creativity on the poster; the show is doomed.
