    He should be at Halloween Havoc.

    When do we find out who wins the NXT WrestleMania Axxess Tournament match to qualify for the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal is it on this Smackdown?

    Sorry yeah you're totally right :(

    I haven't read on three different websites today that Rock is potentially involved in the main event. I haven't seen Rock vs Brock rumoured for the past week at all anywhere lol.
    I don't wanna be that guy but... I totally scooped this guy. Link

    Where's my damn respect?

    I assume it's part of the TV deal that any episode of Smackdown which is shown live in the US can be shown live here as well.

    Must be when they do anything live
    Which is so different to the early 90s

    I'd love to see HBK come out of retirement to face The Rock. It's one of the biggest matches that has never been done before.

    I do like the way WWE are admitting they were ripping fans off for years with the PPV price.

    They need to update the break theme to the current theme.

    If someone wanted to pay me $60 instead of $9.99, I'd shut up and take their money.

    Just think WWE if your booking hadn't been so spectacularly terrible you wouldn't need to spend this time trying to convince us we should still care about the belt

    I think HBK did say when he retired he meant it but that didn't mean he wouldn't ever have a special one off match but it would have to be at least 5 years after his retirement match.

    Perfect timing for WWE as they will really need a big time match next year at Mania.

    Well to be fair with the cut the cable company takes and other things I read they are still getting about the same as they get to keep it all.

    I'm not sure I can see Michaels working another match and WWE shouldn't let him (especially not if they planning to promote Undertaker's match next year as his final match).

    What percentage of the PPV revenue goes to WWE?

    The cable companies take a big cut of the pay per view money
    Vince hates that so that's why:D

    The only figure I've ever seen is a 60/40 split to the PPV provider. Seems to be industry standard in the US and their CFO has said WWE never set the price of the show anyway, it is always the provider.

    I don't know but I think the cable company took at least 50% maybe more then WWE had to cover all the costs out of their cut.
