new Cruiserweight Champ? NWO Buyrates and plans for Marty
The card for the WWE house show in Hartford, Connecticut on May 7th has been posted at WWE.com. One match will be a 3-way between Paul London, Spike Dudley & Nunzio for the Cruiserweight Title. The current Cruiserweight Champion is Chavo Guerrero. It seems that WWE have either revealed that Chavo will be losing his title within the next six weeks(due to injury) or have just messed up(again!).


No Way Out last month only did around 210,000 buys (or a .38 buy rate) making it one of the lowest drawing WWE PPV's in history. The final numbers will probably be closer to 230,000 - 240,000 when all the numbers are calculated.

Vince McMahon was backstage at WWE RAW yesterday, with the aid of his wheelchair and crutches. There was some concern that McMahon may have been rushing his return, and that he shouldn't have been out of his wheelchair yet.

The veteran Marty Jannetty has mainly been hired by WWE to work with some of the younger talent in the company.

Vince walked down to the ring after Batista won the Rumble, and his legs gave way when he went into the ring, tearing both quads.

Vince is now in rehab and hopes to win the royal rumble and then take on the undisputed title away from Jericho at next years wrestlemania.

I thought the injury came from when he was trying to slide into the ring and it looked like he caught his legs on the edge of the apron.

I heard that he hurt one leg out there, as has been said, and the other leg in the back trying to walk on it on his own (supposedly he refused help from Shane McMahon).

Ouch.

at Vince pulling a DOUBLE Nash. I thought it was just one, didn't know he had hurt the other in the back.

The buyrate for NWO is a bit lower than I expected, only because the Armageddon show did about 30 or 40,000 more buys with just as shitty of a lineup. I think the last couple of years have shown that the Feb slot is death because its sandwiched between the Rumble and Mania (two highest drawing shows of the year) and its a single brand show to boot. Back when NWO was doing good numbers they promoted really strong shows (Austin-HHH 2/3 Falls, NWO return, Austin return, etc). Even though thats a bad number, its still only the third lowest drawing show of the year, so it could have been worse.

The CW title thing is a moot point. Ideas change every day. ITs pretty obvious they plan on putting the title on London based on the booking of No Way Out alone. When this happens is anyone's guess, but its clear it will happen at some point.

Whether or not the nostalgia wears off, Jannetty's still great in the ring. He doesn't need nostalgia when he can still go like he did the other week. And even if he is just put on Heat, what does it matter? That doesn't make him a bad wrestler. I'm really struggling to see what your problem with Jannetty is.

Chavo was going to drop the title to London at Mania.

He isn't now.
