Guest Army Eye Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 Isn't everyone excited to see Hulk Hogan back on their TV's? Anyone? Yes. Thanks for asking
Guest InigoMontoya Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 How much pull does HHH actually have? If RVD is being held down, is he being held down by HHH or Macmahon?
Guest The Vanilla Midget Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 mcmahon is largely a puppet. it seems his ego gets in the way, and is easily manipulated behind the scenes - clique, hhh now.
Guest AlwaysPissedOff Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 Maybe the NWO will interfere in RVD's match so he'll get held down by 5 guys instead a mere pansy-assed 2 guys.
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 RVD blows, and people only cheer for him because a) they are ECW mutants or b) its phonetically easy to chant R-V-D, while it sounds bad to chant R-V-D-Sucks, which is what I'd be chanting. Again I have to question how RVD can blow...and yet Hogan is good? If people only chant RVD cause it's easy and interactive...why was the second loudest pop this year (after the return of the glass ceiling...er...HHH) was when the crowd thought RVD had won the undisputed title?
Guest Tony149 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 I'm telling you, HHH can get over if the crowd starts chanting HGH! HGH! HGH! It's easy to chant instead of HHH.
Guest Kahran Ramsus Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 Can someone list the entire card?
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 I beleive that RVD is being held down so that he doesn't get anywhere near HHH on the card. I think that this is an effort by McMahon to not expose how severely unover HHH, compared to a midcarder. It would kind of ruin the effect of the WrestleMania main event if people chanted for RVD during the matches of HHH...
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 Austin vs. Jericho HHH vs. Angle Undertaker vs. Rock Edge vs. Regal (brass knucks on a pole) RVD vs. Goldust Tazz & Spike vs. Booker & Test Tag Team Turmoil Dudleys vs. Hardys vs. Scotty & albert vs. Chuck & Billy vs. Christian & Storm vs. APA Rumored for heat of ppv: DDP vs. Val Venis
Guest goodhelmet Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 and out of those matches, 5 of them could easily have NWO ramifications. The three mains, tag team turmoil, tag title (if the Outsiders interfere). UGH!! I hope I'm wrong about this.
Guest Tony149 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 I only see the nWo getting involved in the "Triple Main Event" (That's what the WWF is calling it). I could see the Outsiders doing a run-in during the tag title match and stealing the belts.
Guest goodhelmet Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 'THE END IS HERE!" The scary thing is you may be right. If the WWF doesn't start giving significant closure to feuds and create some new stars fast, the'yll become WCW Ver.2. And three washed up dinosaurs aren't going to reinvent the industry.
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 Everyone remember to chant RVD RVD during NWO beatdowns.
Guest Galactic Gigolo Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 Reading over the card, I'm really starting to question if I'm insane. I'm dishing out $50 for PPV this month, WWA and No Way Out, and No Way Out's almost a guarantee to suck. The only reason I'm really ordering this PPV is because a couple of my friends are supposed to get drunk with me and watch it. So when I'm doing my commentating throughout the night on the board, I'll probably be progressively drunk, so expect some really bad, homophobic comments coming out of my mouth. Who here doesn't pay for PPV, and just uses a box? I'm thinking about getting one, but don't know the specifications of one.
Guest goodhelmet Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 " The only reason I'm really ordering this PPV is because a couple of my friends are supposed to get drunk with me and watch it." That was my reasoning for ordering WCW Road Wild 98, Fall Brawl 98 PPVsand it wasn't worth the pain. Those two cards convinced me to never order another WCW PPV again. Unfortunately, wrestlers involved in those debacles are coming back and it may create the same result. PPVs are so shitty that the fanbase just turns their back on the product. Hell, and WCW had Benoit and Rey and Eddy and Malenko and Raven at those times and couldn't put on a decent show!
Guest goodhelmet Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 'Who here doesn't pay for PPV, and just uses a box? I'm thinking about getting one, but don't know the specifications of one. " I use the box and have since late '99. Sadly, this was when the WWF quality began to pick up. Too bad for the WWF and good for me.
Guest Tony149 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 I use "the box" too. Since March 2001. I'm like WCW Vader. I feel no pain when a PPV sucks because I get it for free.
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 I feel pain when the ppv sucks...not because of the money so much as the time wasted and the fact that the WWF is all that's left in the US. When they can't put together a good show...DAMN
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 If this angle fails...the WWF might just end all major wrestling in the US. What then?
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 Here's what the NWO should do: After beating down Austin and Jericho they should grab the belts. And then NAsh can say: "HO-GAN!" Hogan: "WHAT?" Nash- hits him and says: "GET THE SPRAYPAINT!" We know they'll spraypaint the belts anyway...at least this would be funny to see...
Guest Tony149 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 I don't think the WWF will ever go out of business, but they will fall on hard times. I guess the WWA would be the next thing. Unless Paul Heyman splits on his own and does something.
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 You know that they won't abandon this angle if it flops.
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 They aren't abandoning the HHH push...and it's flopping.
Guest Tony149 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 Of course they won't drop the angle if it flops.
Guest Tony149 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 They kept the WCW invasion going even when people already knew it was a flop.
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 Flopping angles = lower ratings. Lower ratings = talent cuts (and you know they always cut young, promising guys) Continued angle = lower buyrates. Lower buyrates = even less elavation of unproven stars Even less elavation = No one to take over when Austin retires, the NWO leaves, Rock is making movies. It's going to be the HHH show. hmmmm.....
Guest Kahran Ramsus Posted February 17, 2002 Report Posted February 17, 2002 "Austin vs. Jericho HHH vs. Angle Undertaker vs. Rock Edge vs. Regal (brass knucks on a pole) RVD vs. Goldust Tazz & Spike vs. Booker & Test Tag Team Turmoil Dudleys vs. Hardys vs. Scotty & albert vs. Chuck & Billy vs. Christian & Storm vs. APA Rumored for heat of ppv: DDP vs. Val Venis " Pretty sad aside from Jericho/Austin, and it will likely have a screwjob finish.
