Larryboy Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Was CM Punk apart of The gathering in TNA, and who was his partner?When did CM Punk stop going to TNA - and why?and is Frankie Kazarian in WWE?1. Yes, and with Julio Dinero2. They stopped using him in early 2004 after he got into a fight with Teddy Hart.3. No, he quit, he's back doing indies again.

Paid Members ShortOrderCook Posted May 7, 2006 Paid Members Share Posted May 7, 2006 Has there ever been a Battle Royal where the last two guys hit the floor at the same time?There was a battle royal to open RAW late in 2004 that ended with both Edge and Benoit going out at the same time- the winner was to get a title shot at HHH on the same night, so the match was made a triple threat; that ended up with a submission/pin finish between Edge and Benoit leading to the WWE World title being vacated....Which is a massively under-rated match, one of, if not the best match of that year.

Paid Members bAzTNM#1 Posted May 8, 2006 Paid Members Share Posted May 8, 2006 Two questions brahs.Number One: When Undertaker debuted in 1990 was he "Kane the Undertaker" or plain, old "Undertaker"?Q2. Was Wrestlemania 22's theme song "Big Time" by Peter Gabriel released as a single because of the PPV? I seem to remember the WWE trying to pimp it during the broadcast. If it was released where in the charts did it end up?Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gwailofilms Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Q2. Was Wrestlemania 22's theme song "Big Time" by Peter Gabriel released as a single because of the PPV? I seem to remember the WWE trying to pimp it during the broadcast. If it was released where in the charts did it end up?Gabriel's back catalogue has just been re-released in a remastered state and I imagine it was released as a single to promote that initially.

Larryboy Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 How are TNA television ratings and PPV buyrates comparing with ECW's back in the day?Well, I know what ECW's buyrates were, but not how many buys than equals.Barely Legal 1997 (April 13, 1997) 0.26 Hardcore Heaven 1997 (August 17, 1997) 0.21 November to Remember 1997 (November 30, 1997) 0.20 Living Dangerously 1998 (March 1, 1998) 0.21 WrestlePalooza 1998 (May 3, 1998) 0.23 Heat Wave 1998 (August 2, 1998) 0.25 November to Remember 1998 (November 1, 1998) 0.21 Guilty as Charged 1999 (January 10, 1999) 0.24 Living Dangerously 1999 (March 21, 1999) 0.25 Hardcore Heaven 1999 (May 16, 1999) 0.23 Heat Wave 1999 (August 2, 1999) 0.26 Anarchy Rulz 1999 (September 19, 1999) 0.23 November to Remember 1999 (November 7, 1999) 0.20 Guilty as Charged 2000 (January 9, 2000) 0.21 Living Dangerously (March 12, 2000) 0.24 Massacre on 34th Street (December 3, 2000) 0.98 meanwhile I know that TNA is averaging about 30,000-35,000 buys a ppv, with a peak of about 40,000, but not that that equals in buyrates. I do recall hearing that the best ECW ppv sold something like 100,000 buys, so that's considerably highet than TNA have managed so far.I don't think there's that much in it between the tv ratings, but ECW's were generally marginally higher.

simonworden Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 you have to remember ECW on TNN got F-all advertiseing as well..however the wrestling business aint so hot these days especially as there is a helluva a lot more to watch on TV than in the 90's so more choice means less viewers. i reckon PPV buy rates on average are about the same thoughoh and my question....whats eric angle up to these days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mighty LC Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Two questions brahs.Number One: When Undertaker debuted in 1990 was he "Kane the Undertaker" or plain, old "Undertaker"?On his very first appearance (Survivor Series 90) and for the few subsequent weeks he was The Undertaker. By the Royal Rumble 91 he was Kane The Undertaker. By Wrestlemania 7 he was The Undertaker. So it was probably only a few months - 2 at most - when he was referred to as Kane. There was never any explanation for this when factoring in his brother being called Kane... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
