DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted June 15, 2007 Vince and JR made roughly 9 references or more to being above bait in switching. "We don't say maybe you'll see this or maybe you'll see that... no, we'll have two title matches and you'll see them!". After the show, Cole said "WWE was becoming cocky, making repeated references to WCW without ever using their name, but everyone knew who they were talking about". Speaking of that, Furnas/Lafon vs Owen/Bulldog was good, as always. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drury37 0 Report post Posted June 15, 2007 I watched WCW SuperBrawl III and loved it, but Sting Vs. Vader was a non-title match, never knew that. Such bogus to have a non-title match as the main event of a big pay per view. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted June 15, 2007 WCW always did stupid shit like that in the early 90s. Sting vs. Cactus from Beach Blast 92 was a non title street fight match, which is idiotic since having a title match ADDS TO THE BUYRATE. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted June 15, 2007 I guess no one felt Cactus would get the title so if it were non-title, fans might think Sting would lose. Who knows? Tuesday Night Titans is a MUST watch this week. They air the Richter/Moolah title change, the second most famous screwjob in recent history. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jericholic82 0 Report post Posted June 15, 2007 watched a bit opf superbrawl. funny music edits here. They keep Johhny B Badds song this time (which they dubbed over on spring stampede 94) then they dub over the hollywood blondes theme (with something even more generic) and marcus bagwells theme (with American Males LMAO) and again they redub the ring intro (even though its just gary capetta here not buffer, I guess they do it cuz of the thtme editing) but it sounds nothing like gary this time, but oit sounds much better this time and less obviously redone in a studio to a casual viewer. at least Jesse can be heard in full here, on benoits dvd remember they cut out his commentary on the Benoit-Scorpio match got to watch this whole show later today, its been a long time since I saw it live Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2007 Watched Cena/JBL from Judgment Day. Holy crap what a great brawl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2007 Yeah Cena vs. JBL may well still be Cena's best match and certainly JBL's. Only the weird finish may hurt it for some people. The TNT episode also has Fuji Chan on it as well as the screwjob women's match. I used to have that match on a really old Best of the WWF Vol. 2 tape that got ruined in a flood, and even as a kid watching it I knew something odd had gone down. Fuji and Muraco were awesome.

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2007 Regarding Gary Michael Capetta, I wonder if there's a problem with his audio mixing with the entrance music. They probably need to take out his voice in order to do the music edits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tapout 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2007 Watched Cena/JBL from Judgment Day. Holy crap what a great brawl. Thats exactly what I said after watching that match. Its kind of wierd to hear people 100% behind Cena. Then again, JBL was a great heel, and almost everyone hated him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nate 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2007 yea i agree about Cena/JBL brawl, i dont think Cena deserves half the hate he gets from the net and the fans at the shows Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2007 Regarding Gary Michael Capetta, I wonder if there's a problem with his audio mixing with the entrance music. They probably need to take out his voice in order to do the music edits. They've been doing it since at least October when they showed Halloween Havoc 92. It's the audio with the old WCW PPVs that, when WWE edits out a theme and replaced it, removed the commentary and ring introductions. For HH92, the imposter KINDA sounded like him (spoke with the same mannerisms), but I recall when they used the guy for Spring Stampede 94 he wasn't really trying that hard.

JustJoe2k5 0 Report post Posted June 18, 2007 Is the 24/7 menu formatted like every other On Demand channel or is there some type of WWE-oriented design to it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted June 18, 2007 I have no idea what that means, but it varies by cable provider. For example, my menu (from a cable company that uses the "PreVue" brand digital boxes or something like that... I think an eye is the logo) loads up from channel number 247. It then says "Subscribers" or "Free Trial", then Subscribers have 4 categories. Each available video has a synopsis and expiry date. On the other hand, I've heard some providers just have a big list of what's available with no programming buckets, and others have said they can't see when things expire.

Guest flairfan Report post Posted June 19, 2007 Did anyone else notice the improved quality this week!!!?? There is ALOT less pixsulation when the wrestlers are moving fast in the ring! It says on WWE.com that they now offer a TV quality 750K stream!!!! I for one think it made a HUGE difference!! I am really pleased with this change. Just wish they would have done it earlier. I have 6 months of stuff recorded in their lower streamrates(thus alot of pixsulation in 3 hour long PPVs). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MillenniumMan831 0 Report post Posted June 19, 2007 Well, I can atest that the online matches look way better than before. Never saw HBK/Benjamin before so it was nice having that in TV quality.
