HBK won't win.. (we all know HBK will be voted in).. he's not 100% and I don't see why they should put the title on him when he won't be able to give his best everyweek, his knees look set to buckle any minute.

It would be very annoying to see the WWE screw Orton over again and take the title off of him 1 month after he won it (deja vu?) and not been given a proper title run. Oh yeah.. getting superkicked in the face for 3 consecutive weeks is really showing what a great champ we have. Yeah we like to see the faces come out on top.. but it's repetitive and boring, and I want Randys to shiiine so others can burn in his light! (cheesy lol)

DreadPirate 28-10-2007 05:25 PM

I hope Kennedy wins the vote, I think he and Orton would have a superb match.

Triple H v Umaga should be good.

(BTW mrs rko, Orton getting superkicked so many times would suggest he'll come out on top at the PPV, usually. If HBK gets voted in, my guess would be he lands a kick on Orton, takes too long to cover him, Orton kicks out and eventually wins. Or something along those lines. It'd be a bit weird if HBK got the better of him 4 weeks in a row.)

Sarah. 28-10-2007 05:28 PM

Yeah me too, I've voted Kennedy a few times. Even though I think Hardy deserves it more, Kennedy/Orton will produce a much better match, and less of a chance of Orton losing =]

Redmond 28-10-2007 07:39 PM

You really think HBK will be voted in?

I'd put money on it being Hardy who is voted to face Orton, I just think Hardy has the more loyal fanbase who would vote lots for him because he rarely gets a WWE title shot. Plus I think a lot of younger fans would vote for Hardy over HBK. I myself have voted around 4 or 5 times for it to be Hardy, I have nothing against HBK but I know he will be in plenty more title matches down the line, it's rare that Hardy gets a main event shot. I'd prefer it to be Kennedy out of all but I know he has no chance of being voted in. Anyway yeah...don't be surprised to see Jeff vs Orton tonight. But don't expect a title change, I highly doubt Orton will be losing.

Also expecting Santino to recieve a good old Stonecold Stunner tonight. :tongue:

Anyone expecting Jericho tonight? I'd be hyped if he did return, but I have a feeling he'll be back on Raw instead.

Sarah. 28-10-2007 08:02 PM

I dunno now as he's not 100% and he probably won't be able to last very long in a match, unless to get him to return they said he could have a title run. But it does look more likely to be Hardy now I think about it. But I can see the WWE wanted it to be HBK.

I have no idea when Jericho will return, it makes sense for him to return tonight but the network RAW is broadcast on wanted him to return on RAW.. so who knows..

DreadPirate 28-10-2007 09:06 PM

Thats a good point you make LittlePod, Hardy would probably win the fans vote. Plus, it's an opportunity to get Hardy a title shot, whereas he wouldnt usually get one. Id be happy with that, I reckon Jeffs improved alot in the last year and a match against Orton would definitely put him as the underdog with most of the fans on his side. It should make a really good atmosphere, and with all Jeffs high flying moves it'll give Randy a chance to hit one of those awesome mid air RKOs he's known for.

So anyone else think these vote polls are fake? I do. Should still be a good show mind.

Ruth*Star 28-10-2007 09:24 PM

My Predictions
Orton def HBK
Batista def Undertaker (Though I'd like it if Undertaker got the title back but i just don't see it happening)
Finlay def Mysterio (Stretcher)
Triple H def Umaga (Steel Cage)
CM Punk def John Morrison
MVP def Hardy (In wrestling match)
Diva's Halloween contest (I don't care about this but i see Mickey James Winning)
They could devote time to a Jeff/Kennedy IC title match but they put a divas Halloween contest on which could easily be done on raw.

Dan_ 28-10-2007 10:06 PM

Mine:

Orton pins HBK
Batista pins Undertaker.Ref-Stone Cold
Triple H beats Umaga in a steel cage match
Rey beats Finlay in a shillelagh on a pole match
Morrison pins Punk
Mickie wins the halloween contest
MVP submits Matt Hardy in a MMA match

Redmond 29-10-2007 08:29 AM

Man was I wrong about Hardy. :hugesmile: I underestimated the popularity of HBK.

Anyway what a crappy PPV, so boring and it definitely showed that the votes are real and NOT rigged becauase The Miz!! The Miz for gods sake got voted for the ECW title match.

-Finley vs Mysterio was a nice match, got the PPV off to a good start.
-But then as I said The Miz/CM Punk match was dull, should have been Morrison.
-Matt Hardy not being able to compete was a shame, I wasn't interested at all in another Kane vs MVP match.
-Kennedy vs Hardy match was okay but basically a Raw type match, nothing special.
-HBK vs Orton was a decent match but crappy ending and it just made Orton look weak again. But I suppose that's the role most heel champions have to play.
-Umaga vs Triple H was a good match though, picked the show up a little bit. Glad that it was a street fight.
-Undertaker vs Batista with Austin as the ref, no surprises there but what in the hell were they thinking with not doing anything with Santino and Austin?! Santino has been disrespecting Austin for over a month now, week after week and when you have Austin at a show you do nothing with it! Anyway the match was actually quite good, would've preferred Taker to win the title though.

Overall I think the fans at the live show really got cheated out of some great matches (as did we watching at home) but to be there must've really been disappointing. No Jericho return either although that PPV didn't deserve to have a Jericho return.

Coco4beam 29-10-2007 09:29 AM

Dez were all gud matchs ova

Sarah. 29-10-2007 01:26 PM

Sounds like a terrible PPV. I'm glad it was free.

I was right about HBK being voted in.. but Orton winning as a result of a low blow is a pretty crap ending. Nevertheless I'm relieved that he retained!

No Jericho.. :\ RAW tonight then?

Good to see the Miz in the title match, he's the only one i like.

And hopefully Taker will regain his title soon, because I hate Batista and he sucks as champ. Taker FTW!

DreadPirate 29-10-2007 01:41 PM

Finlay/Rey was a good, fun opener, with some nice innovative bits with the stretcher. No surprise Rey winning, I don't think Finlay ever gets a PPV win these days.

Punk/Miz wasn't too bad, but there were parts which were hard to watch, missing spots and sloppy timing, that sort of thing. The "you can't wrestle" chant was aimed at someone, presumably The Miz?

Kennedy/Hardy was average, not half as good as their 3 way a few PPVs back (possibly Summerslam against Umanga?).

Michaels/Orton was a decent match, finishing when Orton smashed HBK in the cogs when he went for the Sweet Chin Music. I laughed...and also wondered why it's taken so long for someone to do that.

Triple H/Umanga was a good brawl, as you'd expect, only tainted by the appearance of the sledgehammer, and it's use on Umanga's head. Surely it would kill him, right?

Decent show, but nothing important happened (title changes, great matches) which was annoying.

DreadPirate 29-10-2007 02:09 PM

Just heard this was reported by Dave Meltzer...

"Jim Ross was subject to a major tongue lashing during the Cyber Sunday PPV after bad mouthing the Diva Halloween Costume Contest live on air. The commentators were told to put it over big, as Michael Cole, JBL and Lawler did. After the show, words were exchanged with Vince McMahon who was said to be furious and Jim Ross. It's not clear what has happened yet, but it is thought that either Ross quit or was fired."

Meltzer has denied knowing anything about it, so it's still unconfirmed.

Sarah. 29-10-2007 02:16 PM

Seriously?!

What was he saying?


Sorry but the contest is a waste of time really.

=\ I hope he's not gone, he's a great commentator!

Redmond 29-10-2007 02:17 PM

That sounds made up.

Not sure whether to expect Jericho on Raw tonight as he has book signings and interviews scheduled all day, some taking place the same time as Raw.

Lawler was asking JR which Diva looked best and JR just replied in a really annoyed voice "Aw lets just scrap the whole thing!". :laugh:

Ruth*Star 29-10-2007 02:51 PM

I'm so glad Randy's still champ, i have seen Cyber Sunday yet but I've read the results, one thing that shocked me was the Miz being voted in for the ECW title match, by the forums I've been on, hes been unpopular and that was a shock (Really a shock) but I've warmed to the miz lately.
And i really hope JR hasn't been fired, he's a ace commentator.

Dan_ 29-10-2007 02:51 PM

JR said something daft last night and all:

JR - "Orton is right handed, so it makes sense for Michaels to go for his left hand."

King - Huh? Why would he go for his left if he's right handed?! That doesn't make sense JR!

JR - Yes it does...his left his weaker, so by taking that out...

King - He can still fight back with his stronger right JR!

JR - Oh I dunno.


:laugh3:

Ruth*Star 29-10-2007 02:53 PM

^Hahah, JR's so funny.
Oh one thing i'm glad about is a Kennedy/Hardy match last night, i'm happy about that, thats gonna be a great match to watch.

Sarah. 29-10-2007 04:47 PM

LOL good old JR..

It wasn't that great so don't get your hopes too high. It was alright don't get me wrong, but not the best match they've had, they've had better on Raw. It took a while to get into it.

Ruth*Star 29-10-2007 08:46 PM

I just saw that match and i quite liked it, though i think Jeff should have won and i noticed some "If Randy Loses, We Riot" that made me chuckle.

Redmond 30-10-2007 01:19 PM

Another crappy Raw, no Jericho which was disappointing, I have no idea when he'll return. There doesn't seem to be a storyline to put him into, because you've got the Triple H/Umaga storyline going on, HBK/Orton, Kennedy/Hardy, so that doesn't leave any big rivalries open for Jericho at the minute.

Sarah. 30-10-2007 04:38 PM

What a disappointment, no Jericho...

DX back next week, you could almost guess that Michaels was gonna help save HHH...

Santino is hilarious! Stone Colds on RAW next week.. :tongue:

Ruth*Star 30-10-2007 05:28 PM

I haven't seen the raw yet but i'm super disapointed that chris hasn't come back yet, its getting stupid now, they should just have him return, the fans will begin to tire and it'll backfire on them.
