I like the kidnapping, but it needs more HHH. Perhaps he wins the redone Rumble himself and then laughs at them, for being B+ players?

NEEDS MOAR MANSERVANTS.
ReplyDelete7.0 on the Jesse Baker scale
ReplyDeleteThe whole Battlegrounds ending worked so well the first time so let's do it again.
ReplyDeleteYou want people to buy the Network, and having your PPV to set up for RAW isn't it.
My mind has just been blown: My girlfriend and I are watching the 2001 Royal Rumble (she's not seen it before), as posted here a few days ago by Princess.
ReplyDeleteMe: Why are they playing two pieces of music at the same time during the montage package? That's weird.
Her: Weirder, why are they using the theme from Army Of Darkness in the package before that?
And it is! Never noticed that before. Most curious.
Yeah, no Cena or Kane takes a bit off.
ReplyDeleteOn one hand, the idea is lame. On the other hand, it earns points for no whoring out of Steph, sodomy jokes about HHH, or Bryan spanking HBK with a pool noodle.
ReplyDeleteI think I'll give it a thumbs up.
If your mind is the only thing being blown by your girlfriend, then you are underachieving.
ReplyDeleteThe sodomy's implied with the kidnapping.
ReplyDeleteAfter reading the emails that Scott gets, I'll go ahead and still give it a thumbs up - because implied sodomy is much better than detailed, scary sodomy.
ReplyDeleteManservant and AIDS. TnA's hottest new tag team.
ReplyDeleteUp vote your girlfriend watching 2001 royal rumble with you. What planet is she from.
ReplyDeleteWho is buying the Network based on Royal Rumble booking? They're buying it for Wrestlemania, or all of the other shit that they offer.
ReplyDeleteAnytime you say your own idea is brilliant and inspired, it isn't.
ReplyDeleteI've been doing the math on this, and if the plan is to get around $190 million on rights fee from Raw/Smackdown PER YEAR.
ReplyDeleteIn 2012, for the year they made 83.6 million on ppv.
They should be using the ppv to set up Raw. Raw is the more valuable commodity.
Umm, only if they give every PPV-buyer an immediate refund.
ReplyDeleteNo way they have a non-ending like that for the Rumble and not expect horrible backlash.
