Ok, so someone reminded me today that tonight is Summerslam.

Now normally, I get all the PPV's, mostly because I never watch Smackdown and skim through raw, so it's like a "highlight" show.

Then I took a good look at the card and realised their is really one match I have an intrest in seeing, so maybe if I don't buy it, my one less purchase somehow helps the buy-rate drop and the WWE does something to improve the PPV's.

Only match I'd pay to see: Eddie VS. Rey : Ladder match.

The rest:
Hogan v. HBK: This might have been fun if Hogan was 10-20yrs younger, but HBK will have to carry him and the outcome will have little meaning.

Cena V. Jericho: We all ready know the outcome, and they way y2j had been jobbed the last few months it really wont help get Cena over.

Batista v. JBL : So, let me understand, JBL says "I quit" to John Cena and we're supposed to believe he can win "No Hold Barred" match vs. Batista? Yeah, JBL wins this in any way w/ or w/o help, it kills an credibility Batista had on the new brand.

Matt Hardy V. Edge: Does anyone really care? I mean, do we really think there is a chance that Hardy will turn this into a shoot? Would be funny if it comes out that Hardy and Lita never broke up and this whole long thing was a work... anyway... When will Edge use his "Title Shot" anyway?

Taker V. Orton: Ok, so now Taker can put Orton over w/o breaking his WM streak, or he can bury one of the "young talents".

Eugene V. Angle: Can't even believe this is on a PPV, what? Couldn't get a Lingeri match instead? Poor Angle, this guy should be main eventing these things, not handling the bathroom break matches.

Orlando Jordn V. Benoit: I'll be honest, I haven't watched enough of OJ to know if he can step up to Benoits level, who knows, could be a good match?

Let me know if I missed any possible reason to buy this thing.
