King Pitcos Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Furthermore, PPVs would seem like a bigger deal since they're the only place to see significant advances in the hottest storyline the WWE have had for years. And what happens on Raw every week to build up all these PPV main events? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinc Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 And what happens on Raw every week to build up all these PPV main events? Promos and matches and stuff. Â Did you see the build to Undertaker/Kane at WMXX? How about Goldberg/Lesnar on the same show? Austin/Bischoff at No Way Out '03? It's not that much of a far cry from Sting up in the rafters for 18 months before his match with Hogan, except that I think there's more you can do with this angle. WWE have built plenty of matches in the past when for one reason or another one of the participants wasn't at the TV shows every week. In this instance though, they'd still be able to have Punk sending in videos and being an active antagonist to the other characters involved. Like I said, all it would take is a bit of imagination; there's only about 8 hours of Raw between each PPV, if you want 45 minutes of that to be about this storyline each week that's still only 3 hours of TV you need to fill. A weekly Punk video, promo from Triple H or Punk's challenger, and a match involving Punk's challenger fills that pretty easily. Â I don't think that's unsustainable for the relatively short period between Money In The Bank and Survivor Series. There's interesting twists you can put on it like the SmackDown challenger sticking his oar in and demanding to be recognised as the company's main champion or Austin showing up and endorsing Punk's actions in a face-to-face with Triple H. Â I think it would've been doable, and very watchable. I'll cease with the fantasy booking now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xear Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 nodq.com  - Officials at the Valley View Casino Center told TMZ that they were pranked by someone who let the white mouse run across the floor as John Cena was cutting a promo on Alberto Del Rio at the end of Monday's RAW. They added that someone bought the mouse from a store and that they do not have in-house rodent problems.  Did anyone see a mouse on screen?

pol_pot_rick Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 From the newest edition of PWInsider Elite Audio:  -Rey Mysterio health update: He's gonna have the knee surgery he's needed since 07. He's been told multiple times by management that he needs the surgery but he's put it off by rehabbing and resting. During the commercial break in the title match, Alberto Del Rio was on the floor/ramp taunting fans, basically getting everyone's attention. In the ring, Rey was limping around, clearly having aggravated his knee injury. He was moving around trying to see if he could continue on his knee, and there was a ringside producer conversing with him about his ability to continue. To his credit, Rey pretty well hid his limping when the match continued. After the show went off the air, while John Cena and C.M. Punk were doing their schtick with Del Rio and Ricardo Rodriguez, Rey was still getting medical attention at ringside. Part of the reason their antics went on for so long was to distract the crowd from Rey's ongoing medical attention, which went on for at least five minutes after the show went off the air.  Finally, the referee and the trainer were able to help carry Rey out of the arena (Rey was trying to keep any weight off his injured knee). Cena and Punk continued to do their antics in the ring to keep the crowd distracted until they finally got Rey out of the arena. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's clearly a hard little bugger. Â Hopefully the layoff does him good and he comes back in good shape, even if it's not until the new year.

Moderators PowerButchi Posted August 17, 2011 Moderators Share Posted August 17, 2011 The fact that he's been at his very best ever over the past 4 years on one leg is simply incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reznor Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 agreed four yrs to get a op why such the long wait, he wouldnt lose his spot would he? He shouldn't have had the choice in the first place. If he's been needing an important op for so long, the WWE should have taken him off TV and made him have it a long time ago. Especially considering his history of knee problems. Even if he felt he could work through it, that's the kind of thing that puts you in a wheelchair in future years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Rob Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 The fact that he's been at his very best ever over the past 4 years on one leg is simply incredible. Even though you could tell he was in rough shape on this week's show, he still put on an great performance. I'd find it hard to think of many people over the last four years better than Rey.
