Armageddon 2008

[Thanks for the Fish 0]

Where is the "The End" rip-off music for this PPV - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlPbGJM1hus - If they're not going to use it for the PPV why not make it John Morrison's entrance music over the Hendrix rip-off.

 

Anyways here is the final card -

 

Jericho vs Cena for the World Title

Jeff Hardy vs HHH vs Edge for the WWE Title

Batista vs Randy Orton

Finlay vs Mark Henry in a Belfast Brawl

Vladimir Koslov vs Matt Hardy for the ECW Title

Rey Mysterio vs CM Punk in the IC Tournament finals

Santa's Little Helper 8-Diva match Mickie James/Kelly/Maria/Michelle vs Victoria/Maryse/Jillian/Natalya

 

I'll be watching the Survivor Gabon finale tonight, but even if I didn't have something else to watch I'd have little interest in watching this.

 

-Cena is going to retain, probably ending the Jericho feud tonight as well - unless they carry it on until RR o give Cena a throwaway title defense while the real contenders battle it out in the rumble match.

-Edge is likely going to retain as well, I guess the only suspense is in how it will be booked. Does Hardy take the pin?

-Batista vs Orton is useless. I expect a Legacy run-in finish here. Manu will look more pathetic as the muscle of the group.

-Finlay vs Henry - Who's writing this stuff? Only hop here is either Hornswoggle is destroyed or we see a Sheamus O'Shaugnessey debut.

-Koslov should take the title from Hardy

-Mysterio vs Punk could go either way, but wwe doesn't care about the midcard titles anyways

I'll be attending my first WWE ppv (Ironically I've been to a WCW, ECW and TNA ppv though). Free tickets rule.

Then why do you feel like you have to start a thread for this?

[bob_barron 0]

No need to crap on someone for starting a PPV thread.

 

This def looks like a filler PPV. The only match I'm looking forward to is Punk v. Mysterio

Because there wasn't one at of 3pm in the afternoon is why.

Looks like there was a good reason for it too.

Fuck, I hate WWE nowadays.

Guess they're gonna hold off the Intercontinental Championship match for the Punk/Rey winner for the Rumble huh?

 

But judging by the way they got the tag titles off Punk & Kofi so soon, might it happen tonight?

Why? While they have their missteps and the usual wrestling bullshit, I felt the booking has been pretty good recently. I really like what's going on in the Smackdown title scene, and Jericho's heel run has been great

[garfieldsnose 0]

This PPV looks good on paper. The PPV's have been very good recently. I see no reason, besides two matches, that this will not be a good-great PPV.

 

EDIT: And I still find no reason to start a PPV thread of a PPV you aren't going to watch. Doesn't make sense to me.

I'm looking forward to Punk/Rey.

 

How do they not have Beth Pheonix wrestle in her hometown? It's not like she isn't in a feud.

[YourKock'sReallyGreat 0]

How come neither of the Tag Team Champs aren't on tonight? I can live without Henry/Finlay.

[garfieldsnose 0]

I think Batista/Orton has the biggest chance of being a letdown match. It is supposed to be this great big important match, but I can see them not making it work. Hope I'm wrong, though.

[Psycho Penguin 0]

It looks like a decent PPV match wise, but you guys are right, it looks like a filler PPV. Most matches are predictable.

Well, you see, I was just going to comment on how shitty I believe the ppv to be in the existing Armageddon thread, only to find that such a thread didn't exist.

Hey, Armageddon 2000 is the only WWE PPV I've ever seen live. Welcome to the club.

Other than the throw away Divas match it's a really solid crowd top to bottom. I think Finlay/Henry and Koslov/Matt will be better than a lot of pepole expect. Booking will be predictable as hell. Well worth your time to at least find a stream.

I'm gonna go out and say that this show could be one of the biggest surprises of the year, in terms of in ring quality work. Five of the announced matches could be pretty good, and four of the five could be great.

 

When it's all said and done, this show likely wont change much of anything, but I think we could be in store for some solid work.

Yeah, I was really excited for half a second.

Why is it a spoiler to say someone is backstage? And anyways, it's Mae Young, so who cares?

Count me in too.

[milliondollarchamp 0]

does anyone know if the winner of Rey/Punk faces Regal tonight, or will that be done on Raw?

[Boner Kawanger 0]

Only reason to spoil something is because someone would complain if you didn't.
