Because then that match would have been live before Sunday Night Football or the Presidential Debate started

Yeah, I think so, too. Dean and Cena are about to take time off, Orton is still in a feud with Wyatt, so we'll get Miz vs AJ at Survivor Series.
And I actually want a Miz title push. In 2016. Bless that man for doing the best work of his life right now.

Wow... He knows his product is near crap if he's doing this now. Vince wouldn't have done this in previous era's.
Did they seriously put the main event match on a PPV first because the debate would have had people tuning out of a live show they could have easily watched any time later?
Also, how do you just put the main event first without having a main event worthy angle or show stealing match to close the show? Miz vs Ziggler should have ended the show, with Ziggler taking the loss starting a false retirement angle.
Or at the least, have something happen in the opening main event that causes either a singles match or a rematch at the end of the show to keep viewers interested. They had the perfect spot to do that with the double submission win. So many things they could have done to keep viewers last night, but instead they gave up, blew their load in the first hour and just ran with the undercard later on.

The guy who had a bad match with AJ Styles in PWG.

What a mark
I already pre order the disk version of it and cant wait to relive COD 4 aka the greatest mp game of its time
Curt Hawkin's entire gimmick right now makes me think Vince just discovered Chuck Norris facts
The only reason I might not give COD4 multiplayer the GOAT label is because Halo 2 existed

I think they're trying to get Wyatt over again.

This is a good start. He ran Orton pretty damn well last night. Not a single RKO, not even one out of nowhere.
Yeah, well Orton ain't shit in the new era. He's at best a mid card guy who gets fed to people they need to get over.

The reaction he got yesterday says otherwise
He may still get the reaction, but they don't book him to be a top name.

I mean, he doesn't win as much, but he never really did anyway. (Randy has a losing ppv record for his career.) But they still treat him like a big deal. He literally main evented SummerSlam not two months ago. Dude was in the main event of ppvs (Extreme Rules, Payback) just last year until he got hurt, he was a high pick for SmackDown and is the top face there since Cena isn't around as much.
Randy Orton is still a thing and whenever he gets his title match with AJ, everyone is going to eat it up.

Basically this. Win or Lose, Orton is a still a big deal. He just main evented two PPVs and got a hell of a reaction at both. Granted No Mercy is a different story, but they still decided to put Orton/Wyatt last and not Miz/Ziggler.

Welp. Paige just got suspended again.
Is she trying to get out of the contract like that or something?

It's been a funny week for us. Missed our honeymoon cruise and now we're trying to just make it home in one piece.

Her first suspension according to her was because she didn't turn the paperwork in on time. So it doesn't seem she's actually on anything, which leads to her wanting to get out of it. From what's been said, it lasts until 2019, so if she wants out, this is probably the way to go for it.
If that is the case, it's a damn shame.
Are you in FL?

Stay in TN but we went back to NC for our wedding. We were supposed to leave put from sc last Saturday for our cruise but we missed it because they left early without even telling us they would be departing early.

Yeah, Meltz namechecked TNA, ROH, EVOLVE and PROGRESS, and one other I can't remember off the top of my head.
I don't see ROH going on there for such a low price given how much their IPPVs cost though

She's going to get out of that contract somehow.
That sucks. Hope you're able to get your money back on the cruise without much trouble and salvage it.
ROH would probably just be for the pre-Sinclair libraries. That would include the material they would need for most of their current stars with the exception of like Cedric Alexander or someone newer from ROH.
Gabe has mentioned an upgraded WWN lately in his e-mails, and I have been curious if he would get involved with distributing through the WWE Network if they ever opened it up.
