TNA chants cause WWE to stop doing "PPV Press Conferences"
 

I'll tell you, this does mean that the WWE is starting to "listen" to TNA, if you know what I mean.

Naw, Vince probably thinks the fans want more Diva Bikini contests.

If this is true, I think this is pretty huge in the grand scheme of things.

I bet VKM are rubbing their hands. They've got a lot of material, lets see if they use it.

Yeah, instead of the ppv press conferences their just going to have online bikini contests just to show how in touch Vince is with his fanbase.

They're hearing, but they're not listening. We might as well be speaking in French.

Will WWE make a better product? No.

chickenshit bastards

Good.

A "press conference" for a pro wrestling PPV event?

Every fucking episode of RAW and Smackdown is a fucking press conference. Y'know, people with microphones, promoting their matches and feuds for the big show.

It's not the fucking NFL, Vince. It's about time he stopped with this stupid shit.

IT's not the NFL?

Then what's with all the homoeroticism?

I think you mean "faggotry."

No, that'd be for the company with Billy Gunn in it.

You mean Kanyon.

Who is currently unemployed, so... yeah. What's your point?

I mean Kip James, but "The Ass Man" Billy Gunn sounds less gay.

...And that's saying something.

No big deal. When we start hearing more audible TNA chants on TV is when this matters.

I think I've heard a few...

Not "everyone" audible, but a few sporadic TNA chants here and there isn't uncommon.

Maybe they'll cancel RAW because of the chants, too.

I saw someone wearing a CM Punk shirt and another wearing a Kennedy shirt tonight on Impact!

I think that upstart WWE promotion is catching on with TNA fans.

Actually, I'm kinda surprised that they haven't gone back to taping RAW since they don't have live competition.

I think I saw that show in the Interwebz!

What in the sam hell is the interwebz?

I'm waiting on last months Wrestling Challenge to get to me from this neat tape collector in the mail.

Well, you keep waiting on that.

I heard there was this huge guy in that same promotion who's kicking ass. He's named after a TV show... I think his name is "Smoking Gun" Hogan... Or something like that.

Woah I just saw that Ric Flair became NWA Champ for the 2nd time!

I think he's good for another 4 reigns or so, but after that it'll probably be downhill.

Uh, yeah, they had press conferences for every PPV for the past couple of years. Sometimes they'd show clips of them, and most of them they'd announce them before a PPV.

I would make an argument about ratings, but it seems after the Rosie/Donald thingie, no one in WWE gives a shit about ratings.

Now if TNA could make all Non-Nash/Angle aspects of their company not boring, I could almost maybe not really give a shit.

:kiss:

Man, did you hear about this Big Bang thing? It's like so damn awsome! You should check it out!

There...I ran the joke into the ground. Now move on.

Well, this can only mean that soon... Raw will cease to be live.

The other half of this issue:

A: Why take signs to a house show?

B: Why confiscate them if its not on TV?

I'd only miss it slightly more than I do now, oddly enough.

LOL.

If we can get TNA to Create Duo Extreme, maybe they'll start confiescating DX T-Shirts and signs.

Just think of all the precedents this sets.

Because then no one will know that people don't like John Cena.

Duh.

:roll:

You know, if the WWE put some effort in their product, and didn't produce a lot crap wrestling shows, they wouldn't be cancelling PPV press conferences from people chanting their competition's name.

Effort into their product? Is that a serious suggestion? It is not fathomable to expect WWE to put some fucking effort into what they do. Ignore what the fans want, or don't want, and continue on the set course. Cancel PPV press conferences. Confiscate signs at the door. Use all of the effort that you could be putting into the fucking product to simply try and ignore the competition. This is the best course of action, from a wrestling and business standpoint.

Fucking WWE.

They are putting effort into it. Just into the wrong areas.

I heard it during the Rosie/Donald crapfest.

Yeah they are coming along nicely in the "C-level SNL" area

Yeah, I know. I heard it, too.
