I'll be watching, and have a full report up shortly after the show. Looking forward to it actually, if only because two of the title matches are offering something completely different, another has been built well, and the Main Event should deliver.
I think the other thing with the dec show is that it usually starts the build towards Mania, by putting a few of the Rumble pieces in place.

I want to watch it but I can't. No money = No PPV for me. Maybe ROH or the Rumble but not this . I'm not gonna bother trying to watch it "by other means". I'll read about it in your report in the morning.

I really hope they give Christian/Benjamin enough time to really steal the show. 15-20 minutes rather than 10 and we could have a match of the year candidate on our hands.

A ladder match is just about the only environment in which Benjamin interests me.

In fairness to Benjamin, if they ever actually got behind him for longer than two months at any time he'd could be a really good upper-midcard hand. There's only so long a guy can give his all if they're not going to get behind him fully.

Hes had his fair share of pushes. My biggest problem with him is his total lack of charisma. Phenomenal athelete, but no connection with the audience.

michael.etc...

I agree with both of you. He could be a great Semi-main event/upper mid-card hand. His lack of charisma/natural connection is a huge problem though. On the other hand, creative have done an abysmal job of helping him out from that perspective. He's crying out for a manager/valet.

Hah yeah- argh... that went well.

In fairness, that was his idea- so he definitely isn't the man to ask for creative input.

I could actually see Christian/Shelton opening.

I really want this to be the match of the night but I feel WWE will ruin it if they don't give enough time to it.

Oh aye- She was a larf alright- but Shelton looked like a dope standing beside her being a charisma-vacum.

aye supposedly so. I recall Charlie Haas getting a little peeved at a Q and A over it.

Is this on at one or two in the morning?

michael.etc...

Starts at 1 dude.

Enjoy the PPV everyone. Lets hope WWE can end the decade on a PPV high.

Haven't you heard of the new deal?

It's in the "good news" thread. From next year, Sky Sports show 5 PPV's (I'll guess at EC, Backlash, The Bash, Breaking Point and Bragging Rights, if the names haven't been changed) with the rest on SBO.

crap didnt realise what the thread was about:D oops sounds cool doh

Machismo Fan

There's not much buzz about for Kofi/Orton is there. I think WWE kind of hurt it's appeal by having them wrestle twice on Raw in short matches. This feud was really hot a few weeks ago but it's really cooled since.

Agreed, they ruined it by showing it for free on Raw. Hoping they can keep building Kofi up. The guy has charisma

Yup, completely agree. It killed Kofi's momentum, and i get the impression they're going to end the feud more or less. The whole "rubber match" promo was a terrible idea.

you could always get your mates to order it and go to their houses. me and a couple mates usually do it that way. then we are only buying every 3rd or 4th ppv

Erm... anyways...

What do people make of Batista/Taker?
It is like, the two-hundred and twentieth rematch or something between them, but I think Big Dave's recent character direction really gives it a boost and I would be lying if i said the gimmick didn't intrigue me.

to be honest with this whole new aggresive batista im looking forward to it. just hope they dont drag the match and hopefully they will have it evenly matched

The Bull

I dont think im goin to buy this PPV, Im givin sky over 80 euro a month now for the full HD package and i f"""ed if i givin them anymore this month. Thought i had a prob with my HD box there last month and the guy on the phone wanted 100 euro for them to come and replace the HD box. I told him to come and take it out, what a shower of money grabbin b****ds. I goin to have a round and if theres no joy there i guess i will just watch the NFL on five.
Anyway it would be good to see the cabbra man have the strap on him, even if it just for a short period. GO SHEAMUS!

The crowd "we want blood we want blood"

Gonzo

I cant believe that doctor thing just happened, wwe worried about the possible spillage of blood on their TV-PG shows

The Bull

That was a great match apart from the doctor ****e, really solid match. gave it 20 min too

gimmick

Great match. The standard has been set

Podge2k7

I really enjoyed that match

there are 3 ordinary singles matches, this, orton/kofi and mickie james/mccool

I thought Morrison was going to get himself disqualified there

Could be a good night for the celtic nations after all

I enjoyed that and all. First time staying up for a PPV in a looooong time.

Nice to see Drew go over there. He is gonna be HUGE

gimmick

Ha, IWW ilumni face to face on WWE ppv. Fair play to all.

Podge2k7

Lol at Josh Mathews in the middle of Sheamus and Drew

Xinkai

I see what Mickie did with her clothes there, wearing country clothes, & she signed a record deal singing country music last week. I don't like the way WWE are treating her lately about her weight, nothing stopping them just saying 'Hey lose some weight Mickie please, thanks'.

McCool to win.

Timbaland is going to guest host the last Raw of 09
