AJSTYLES Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Did WCW and the WWF ever hold a PPV on the same night?No but both companies use to run free supercards on the same day of the others PPVs to swing the fans away from watching the PPV.

Paid Members The Ratt Posted December 14, 2005 Paid Members Share Posted December 14, 2005 (edited) - Did WCW and the WWF ever hold a PPV on the same night?Starrcade 87 and Survivor Series 87 were both held on the 26/11/1987 on PPV.The Survivor Series began in 87 to counteract JCP's Starrcade. Vince wouldn't let any cable system air Survivor Series that showed Starrcade. So most cable companies chose the WWF's PPV costing JCP a lot of money.

Sichadelic Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Has Kip James turned face on TNA joining the 3LK? I thought he was meant to be against them? Yup. There's still a little in-group tension (At least on the current TWC episodes) - but it's now officially the 4LC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting note: the PPV broadcasters begged Ted Turner to put on a PPV against WrestleMania V as they were sick of Vince's crap. It was all planned and everything, but they worked out something with Vince so the planned PPV was scrapped and turned into Clash of the Champions V.

Guest Ashley Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Bret Hart's finishing sequence. What were the moves, and what was their order? Obviously, the Sharpshooter was the last...

Van_Dammer Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Thanks to those who answered my question about WWF/WCW PPVs. I've been looking into Amy Weber's WWE departure and came across some conflicting information. Can anyone shed some light on 'harassment' that caused her to leave?

While not strictly a PPV, the first Clash of the Champions clashed with WrestleMania IV. If your saying that it could be worth pointing out that the WWF ran the first Royal Rumble event in January 1988 on TV (USA Network) to go against an NWA PPV (I think the Bunkhouse Stampede or something?)I'm think that was originally why the NWA booked the Clash of Champions to go against WM4 Edited December 14, 2005 by landy1987 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinyahashimoto Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 (edited) I think it went:Russian leg-sweep - Forearm smash from the middle rope - Sharpshooter.Wasn't there a Manhattan Drop in there somewhere? There was a backbraker there too.- Was there an incident in which a wrestling promotor had given a newspaper reporter the results of a show, only for them to be printed early? If so, who am I thinking of and what was the event?I have a vague recollection of this happening for Wrestlemania IV, but for WWF to change the final result. Similar thing happened at WCW. With long TV tapings in advance, they played the wrong tape of Mene Gene talking about Flair's title win/defeat(I can't remember), before the actual PPV. This was explained that Mene Gene had been bought off by Flair(or something!) and that it having that on TV was part of the mind games either Flair or his opponent was playing. I'm sure someone remembers both incidents better.Edit: The good lord google found this:Prior to WrestleMania IV, USA Today got a copy of the post-WrestleMania WWF Magazine which listed Randy Savage as champion before the tournament (where Savage beat Dibiase in the finals) took place. McMahon publicly referred to it as a coincidence. Edited December 14, 2005 by shinyahashimoto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
