Anyone else having problems with Byte This?

[Nightfall 0]

The show was supposed to start at 2 pacific time. Well I logged on at 2:45 to catch the rest of the show, but it doesn't seem to be working this week. Is anyone watching right now, or is it over already?

Well, it just started now. But WWE.com said it started at a special earlier time.

This is great, Matt just called in and they're talking.

Matt just plugged ROH on Byte This!

And he's still saying stuff about going on 'vacation' to Orlando on Sunday.

 

And now a shill for his websites.

I'm pleasantly surprised about this, they haven't put this much effort into any angle, shoot or work that I can recall in a while.

For those who missed it.

 

Matt Hardy called into WWE.com's Byte This, "confronting" Lita as to why she left him for Adam Copeland (as he called him on the air). Lita said that she doesn't think she needs to explain why she's with Edge. She told Hardy that one of the reasons she's not with him is that he's been cutting wrestling promos about their personal life. She then said that it's not her issue to act out "this breakup in a public way" the way Hardy did. She questions him rallying his MFers for, "What, I don't know?" Hardy responded that it's a public thing because they are public people and she got involved with someone who claimed to be one of his best friends.

 

"We're on TV, we're worldwide in every country in the world. Considering the power of the Internet, it was going to be out there." said Hardy. Lita said that if Hardy didn't rally the troops and make matter public, things would have been conducted a lot better. She said the situation came out of nowhere, but wasn't her fault. Hardy responded that it would have come out eventually and Hardy didn't want people thinking he was at fault.

 

Hardy then discussed his firing, saying that Johnny Ace called him when he was ready to come back when Ace called him to inform him he was released because creative has nothing for him. Hardy said that he didn't buy that and questioned it had nothing to do with the Edge-Lita situation. He said that Adam Copeland and Lita were in the wrong with Copeland committing adultery, but he was the one who was fired.

 

Lita then asked Hardy why she would want to be with him after "a rant like this." Hardy said that he doesn't want to be with her anymore, but he's a vindicative person. He said he put her in front of his career and said he came to Raw only because he wanted to be with her to make their schedules better, even though "it was a career killer" for him. He said he would get retribution against Lita, Edge, and WWE.

 

Hardy mentioned that his no compete clause has expired and plugged his shows this weekend, calling Ring of Honor "A real wrestling promotion with no soap opera storylines." Lita tried to cut her off when Hardy began questioning, "What went wrong with us?" Lita then said she didn't want to talk about it because it was personal, and when he pushed, she walked off the set.

 

Hardy plugged his websites and said, "See you at Ring of Honor." WWE.com then ended the show after 27 minutes due to Lita "walking off the show."

 

Prior to Hardy calling in, Lita addressed the situation saying that she doesn't sign autographs anymore because of the situation. Lita noted that she regretted the breakup with Hardy, but she doesn't regret being with Edge "because I love him." When asked about Edge being married, Lita said that wasn't a question anyone but Edge could answer and she wasn't going to comment on it because it's "personal."

It's nice to see WWE putting some effort into a good angle for a change. Hopefully it'll continue.

If I didn't know any better I'd think this was all real. Great job from all involved in making this a compelling storyline.

I'm looking forward to how it plays out as it is a very interesting story and a lot of effort is being put in. However, if what Meltzer wrote in his article turns out to happen, whereby fans turn on Matt because he's trying to make all of this come across as being real (outside raw aswell eg. his website etc), then its gonna be very unfortunate for him and people who are actually enjoying this feud/story. Hopefully fans don't all of a sudden start booing and turning on Matt due to the amount of effort thats being put in to make this come across as real, instead fans just sit back, enjoy and appreciate the effort. Thats the way i see it anyway.

If that happens, Matt can just backlash against the fans and go back to being a formidable (in his SD days anyway) heel.
