    Still haven't decided but that in itself isn't a positive sign!

    Bit of a dilemma really

    Miss out and if it's a good PPV, a few regrets

    Buy it and it's crap, prepare oneself for the massive incoming bill

    Buy it and it's good, money well spent and who cares about the massive bill

    Miss it and it's crap, thank heaven for small mercies

    Have to admit, I am not as sure as I was earlier as there is now that little niggling temptation to purchase the event as we approach kick off time

    Another bottle of Becks has not helped to clarify my decision so still not booked it yet. Maybe I should try one more bottle to see if it makes anything clearer :D

    2 hours and 10 minutes to decide, yes or no....

    If I miss this one it will be the 2nd PPV I have missed after Wrestlemania 18

    If you haven't bought the PPV yet then you can't be that bothered. If it was something you really wanted to see then you would have bought it by now.

    I promise :D I'm a few away from Rab C Nesbitt status but there are 2 hours to go yet so it's still possible. I can't work a string vest the same way he could though ;)

    For some PPV's I usually leave it till the last minute anyway :D

    To be honest and IMO, 3 PPVs in a row on Box Office is maybe too much to ask for some people to fork out on as they simply can't afford it especially with Xmas arriving in a few days

    We should count ourselves lucky though as the Americans have to pay for all of the PPVs

    I'm watching TLC tonight, and Raw tomorrow. But I'm working at 7am on Wed so I won't be watching Smackdown live.

    Also I reckon 2010 has been one of the best years for WWE in recent years....so I don't get much of the hate.
    Too many people are obsessed with getting the "attitude era" back. Which in itself would be a bad move. Personally I'd hate to see the return of excessive blood and needless nudity.
    Looking back, a lot of the content was there to catch the attention of immature adolescent males. I'm all for blading where it's needed, but the WWF(WWE) took it to the extreme sometimes.
    Anyhow, enjoy to all who's watching it along with myself.

    It will never go back to the Attitude Era. WWE has went so far down this route that when they do change, and that will only be when Vince McMahon admits that TNA exists and UFC is taking more and more of his fans , they will need to be more edgier. It's not if it will happen it's when it will happen. Yes people the day will come when John Cena will be covered in blood, Randy Orton will really be able to take his Viper gimmick to the next level with some over the top violence and hopefully we can get some of the soap opera elements of pro wrestling back into WWE. But in order for it to happen things need to continue. They need to keep going down the road their on, losing PPV buys, tv ratings not going up. The only problem they face is relying on their young stars to sell their PPVs and events.

    To be fair,we've seen John Cena do multiple juice jobs and numerous soap opera esque storylines.Also,there has been crazy angles and controversial stuff -- in fact,they only really started to pull back in late 2007.

    But ratings and PPV buys (with a few exceptions) have been on a downward spiral since 2002.

    The girl's got good taste! :p Has the Becks helped make your mind up?

    Enjoy TLC those of you who are staying up for it tonight. :)

    A request - could someone let us know if Matt Striker's commentating early doors (ie before I head off to bed shortly)? Would be criminal if they've ditched him for Punk/Mathews/AN Other.
