NEWS: |WWE via PWI| It looks like WWE will be returning to the roots of Survivor Series. The main event appears to be team-based once again with teams from ECW, Smackdown and RAW competing. Survivor Series airs November 26thm 2006 live on PPV.
Very interesting. I do miss the old Survivor Series matches. This PPV has fallen off in the past few years, but I hope WWE puts a lot of planning into this and raises its profile once again. Obviously I’m rooting for ECW already.
For new wrestling fans, Survivor Series used to be focused on tag team wrestling where two teams of four (sometimes four) would compete. The wrestling shows prior to Survivor Series were focused on trying to get on the team and ultimately into the Survivor Series main event which made for interesting TV. With that said, who do you wanna see on each team?
DX vs. Team ECW (Punk, Show, Sandman, Dreamer, RVD, and Sabu) and Team Smackdown (Booker, Batista, Regal, Finaly, and Lashley) and Team Raw (Cena, Edge, Orton, Nitro, and Carlito) handicap elimination match.
Face facts people, DX doesn’t sell anybody or anything unless its last name ends with McMahon, and if your name isn’t Triple H or Shawn Michaels your only job is to lay down.
I agree with Nathaniel.
this is a little piece i found on pwtorch.com, there is also a four minute interview with scott steiner on thaoshow.com for any tna marks out there. anywho below is satire, so enjoy.
As we all know, in WWE the cameras can be anywhere. This policy has two major benefits. One, WWE creative doesn’t have to be as creative. Two, an occasional tape slips out to the public via a piece of sh– cowardly leaker. JBL be damned, a transcript of this conversation between Triple H – identified as Hunter – and a WWE PR Director is printed below.
PR DIRECTOR: Thank you for coming in here today Hunter, I know its not often you are called into anyone’s office here at WWE headquarters.
HUNTER: First time since I started banging the Boss’s daughter.
PR DIRECTOR: Ah, yes. That’s exactly what I wanted to talk to you about. Your father pays me to assure that there are no embarrassing public relations matters for WWE to deal with and I’m afraid we have one with you.
HUNTER: What?
PR DIRECTOR: You’re a dick.
HUNTER: No I’m not. I’m super cool. Watch this. I’m gonna get out of my chair and go knock on your office door. Now you say, “Who is it?”
PR DIRECTOR: Okay. Who is it?
HUNTER: Land Shark.
PR DIRECTOR: What?
HUNTER: Candygram.
PR DIRECTOR: What are you talking about?
HUNTER: It’s a joke man! From Saturday Night Live! Once the door opens, it’s not a candygram at all, it’s Chevy Chase dressed as Jaws!
PR DIRECTOR: That’s 30 years old, right?
HUNTER: I guess. I did it on Raw last night, though, and it was SO funny. Almost as funny as the Cryme Tyme vignette.
PR DIRECTOR: Raw is what I want to start with. In accordance with the WWE Wellness program, Chris Masters has stopped using illegal drugs to enhance his physique. You told him he should write a book called “How to lose 50 pounds in four weeks.”
HUNTER: Hilarious, huh?
PR DIRECTOR: No. That is the last of a string of insensitive comments you’ve made lately that damage company moral and could potentially embarrass WWE.
HUNTER: What else have I said?
PR DIRECTOR: You told JBL he should write a book called, “How to sit at the announcer’s booth like a baby.”
HUNTER: He used to be a bad ass.
PR DIRECTOR: The guy has a serious injury!
PR DIRECTOR : You told William Regal he should write a book called “How to become a boring ass loser who never goes to the bars with us anymore.”
HUNTER: He used to be fun.
PR DIRECTOR: He got off drugs! You told Matt Hardy he should write a book called, “How to blow the greatest opportunity you’ll ever get by not signing with TNA and instead bending over and taking it from Vince McMahon.”
HUNTER: Yeah?
PR DIRECTOR: Well… I’ve gotta give you that one. Hunter, I don’t mean to delve into your family affairs, but you must remain professional in front of other WWE employees. Backstage last night at Raw, you told your own wife Stephanie that she should write a book.
HUNTER: She should.
PR DIRECTOR: You told her she should call it, “How to gain 70 pounds in 9 months an look like a fat ass cow.”
HUNTER: Have you seen her lately?
PR DIRECTOR: She just had a baby. YOUR baby! And she brought your little girl to Raw for the first time last night. You held that precious little girl in your arms and told her that when she grows up she should write a book called, “How to sh– all over yourself and not clean it up.”
HUNTER: She does it all the time and it is disgusting.
PR DIRECTOR: She’s three months old! You met with a Make-a-Wish kid at Raw last night and insulted him.
HUNTER: What? All I said was that if he lives, he should write a book called, “How to lose all of your hair before you turn 10.”
PR DIRECTOR: That boy has leukemia! He lost his hair in treatment!
HUNTER: Whatever. It still looks weird.
PR DIRECTOR: Hunter, I can’t fire you, but I can make a suggestion. Write a book.
HUNTER: Called what?
PR DIRECTOR: “How I learned to appreciate the fact that the only reason guys like Chris Masters don’t rip my head off my shoulders and shove it up my own ass is because I happen to have married the boss’s daughter and I should be a little more humble about the power I have because if I’m not careful one day I’m going to get everything I deserve paid back to me in spades.”
HUNTER: I don’t get it.
PR DIRECTOR: No Hunter, you don’t get it. You don’t get it at all…
Could they not get new tag teams over this way. WWE should produce teams like The Naturals, Bentley Kazarian LAX, AJ Daniels and the Great AMW.
