WWE Cyber Sunday 2008 *SPOILERS*

getting austin to wrestle again at mania , in texas, would be huge box office. Even with his limitations Austin could still work a decent fifteen minute walk about brawl which is all he was doing toward the end anyway.
There would be a massive queue or workers who would want that spot though but my oney would be on Edge or Orton to secure it.

If Austin does make it to WM 25 (instead I'd like to see him enter into the HOF) I just hope this doesn't prove to be a mistake physically. Look at how stiff he was in The Condemned (and I don't mean his acting either). The fight scenes had no spark to them because he couldn't move too well.

You can bet that Hogan will be pressing to get that match because he needs the money and he'll want the glory for such a big money match too. Unfortunately, neither man is capable of having a decent match these days but just having them be a major focus of the show is one in the eye for the current stars.

Oh, and the Cyber Sunday gimmick needs to be dropped. It's one extra PPV that spoils the match build ups following on from No Mercy to Survivor Series and they are rarely any good anyway.

i agree cyber sunday was a fun one night concept but now needs to go away. A one night tag team tournament with fans picking the partners would be better and would help revitalise tag wrestling and make it interesting again to casual fans.
I doubt austin vs hogan will ever happen as there is no way either man would ever job to the other but i hold out hope that money may make it happen

And with the press that Hogan currently courts I doubt that the WWE would touch im with a bargepole... Anyway this Austins opponent at WM convo really needs to move to the WM thread please

Here's a poster for Cyber Sunday. One question. Where's the title belt?

Mollison · 500 Club Member

Doesn't look official DM. CM Punks been stretched massively out of proportion and there s a distinct lack of WWE logos and the ever present "All superstars names and images remain copyright etc. etc. which they would never leave off in a million years. Shoddy fan work for them to use a non-title pic though!

**EDIT** On second look (at the Cyber Sunday logo) I think DM is responsible for the lack of proportion as the "circle" is an oval. But the other points stand.

It's probably just a quickly made promotional pic from some website and not the official poster.

Mollison · 500 Club Member

Hows this for needing an anorak, I notice the lack of the Pepsi style tat on his shoulder. Considering he's had that for years this is certainly not an official poster.

**EDIT** On further research he had that done as his third tat in his teenage years, so I'm guessing it was airbrushed out of this pic for copyright reasons. (Which is stupid as they could easily just make him pose with it out of view!)

God I need a life!

Just to follow on from the above dissertation regarding Punk's Pepsi tattoo...

The website ProductPlacementNews.com featured a short piece on CM Punk's Pepsi tattoo and whether it was product placement. In actuality, he's had it for years and WWE airbrushes it off all the marketing materials Punk appears on since they don't have the rights to the logo.

An all new Cyber Sunday poster has appeared....

...Pepsi tattoo just about visible!

Creepfnshow · On The Casting Couch

thats brilliant. Conjures up V for vendetta type imagery and emphasises the man of the people gimmick. Best poster this year

Man In Black · Anime Mod

Shame Punk probably won't be on the PPV....

Darth Mattitude · The Dark Admin

Well the first two matches for Cyber Sunday were announced on RAW last night and they are...

Chris Jericho Vs Batista - We choose the Guest Referee from:

Randy Orton
Shawn Micheals
'Stone Cold' Steve Austin

Santino Marella Defends his IC title against either:

'Rowdy' Roddy Piper
Golddust
Honky Tonk Man

Now I'd say both votes are fairly obvious and Im glad they are brining honky into the IC Angle, but I think it would have been better for when/if Santino got to or was at the Honky Record Mark... Still.

Man In Black · Anime Mod

Also the voting for Cyber Sunday can now only be done in the US and via mobile phone alone where the charge is $1 per text.

Kind of defeats the "Cyber" part of the PPV name doesn't it?

What's the betting they will still claim millions of votes despite the narrow field of voting methods....

Man In Black · Anime Mod

Latest match for the Cyber Sunday PPV:

Who does HHH face for the WWE title?

a) Jeff Hardy
b) Vladamir Kozlov
c) Both in a triple threat match

Totoro101 · Movie Executive Producer

What a hard choice,can see Jeff walking away with this.No matter who though,Trips will win.

Man In Black · Anime Mod

Added to Cyber Sunday:

Rey Mysterio vs Kane

1) Falls Count Anywhere
2) No Holds Barred
3) 2 out of 3 falls

Taker vs Show

Stips to be announced on SD

Totoro101 · Movie Executive Producer

Will people really vote for Rey vs kane for 2 out of 3 falls? What a silly stip! and No Holds barred/Falls count matches are basically the same without the pinning anywhere stipulation.Taker vs Show,i can see something like Casket match,Lastman standing or cage.

Creepfnshow · On The Casting Couch

any chance of an additional stip for the jeff/Koslov vs triple h match being that we all know who is going to win anyway?. I would vote for the loser(s) to have to go back to wrestling school to learn how to assemble a match properly.
