RIPPA Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 This is what happens when people other than me start threads. And just for the record - there was no way to exit out of that with closing the thread so I pulled the rip cord If you can't figure out why - I STRONGLY suggest finding another message board 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Austin Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 I haven't seen it mentioned much, but we now have a dearth of wrestling streaming services, WWE network, FloSlam, Powerslam, HighspotsTV, NWA Classics, and others I haven't even mentioned. Has anyone tried ALL of them? Or any of them outside the WWE network? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Web Conn Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 It's being reported that Elimination Chamber will be in Phoenix in February, i'm thinking of making the drive from Vegas to see it. Last Elimination Chamber PPV i was at was in 2009 when it was in Seattle when Edge took out Kofi and won the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted December 1, 2016 Author Share Posted December 1, 2016 That is a RAW brand show so I have a strong suspicion they are going to do a women's EC match this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted December 1, 2016 Author Share Posted December 1, 2016 From the newest WON Quote Elimination Chamber, which will be a Raw only PPV, takes place on 2/12 at the Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix. There will be a Smackdown only Fast Lane PPV on 3/5 at the BMO Harris Bank Center in Milwaukee. We got a listing of 18 PPV dates in 2017. The last number WWE publicized was 19. Because of WWE Network numbers falling even with two PPVs in recent months, meaning they are spending more money and still falling in paid subscriptions, there was very serious talk of cutting back to 16 shows in 2017, which would mean some changes in the planned schedule. The original scheduled plan was Extreme rules as a Smackdown only show and Money in the Bank (6/18) as a Smackdown only show, but the schedule and plans have changed and that may or may not affect those shows and dates. The shows and dates listed above are all confirmed as being accurate at this point with tickets going on sale this week for Phoenix and next week for Milwaukee.

Sammo~! Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 This is an unbelievable historic first ever women's Elimination Chamber match! Part of a triple main event along with Elimination Chamber matches for the Universal and United States championships! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just unearth hidden gem after hidden gem. Just yesterday they put up Nick Bockwinkle v. Dick Slater 2/3 falls for the AWA title, didn't know that was a thing that existed right? Now you want to see it right? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Lord Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 So, if there's an Elimination Chamber in February...and it's a RAW ppv would that be a huge hint that a Smackdown guy is winning the Royal Rumble? I'd love to see a Women's chamber, but at the same time I'm afraid to see Sasha finally get the chance to climb up and dive off the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattdangerously Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 The amount of time it takes to convert all of that stuff to whatever format they need would be my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt788 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Speaking of the WON, when do the WON awards come out? If I sign up now can I be a voter? Thanks to anyone who knows the answer. I want to vote for Lucha Underground for worst promotion, even though I know TNA will win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt788 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Don't worry Zakk TNA has won literally 8 years in a row, they are an unstoppable juggernaut in the worst promotion category. The only possible thing that could stop them at this point would be a Global Force Wrestling primetime cable show. So if you see Jeff Jarret buying lottery tickets, hit him with a fake guitar.

Matt788 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Wikipedia says they never lost the belts and had them 405 days and counting. I suspect they mailed them back to the Jarrett mountainside chateau now that they are in a promotion that fans are actually aware of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking about the LU part of your post. I'm way behind on watching the show, but I just love the overall presentation. The matches are great, but the look of the show is just so much different from everything else going on. Even if it's not your cup of tea stylistically, I still think worst promotion of the year is a real overstatement, in my opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattdangerously Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Ring of Honor is right there. TNA at least has the Hardy saga. Broken Matt > whatever the fuck Kevin Sullivan is doing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammo~! Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Outside of the Kevin Sullivan stuff, which is terrible and also thankfully probably ending with Corino heading to WWE, ROH isn't that bad. It's also not really good either. Is there a WON award for "Most Average Promotion of the Year"? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 For those who haven't heard, the 2016 WON Hall of Fame class is Daniel Bryan, Mean Gene, & Sting, with James McLaughlin as a pioneer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
