I was only really disappointed by the ECW match everything else I can live with. Hell in the Cell was great, the best HITC in a long time.

Great PPV. We had a BBQ and everybody bet on the matches. My wife got every match right (I've taught her too well!!!) It makes it a lot funner to watch with a group of people.

Did you divide the cost of the PPV among the guests? That makes a PPV even BETTER

I don't know enough people who still watch wrestling.

Although we haven't done this since the last WM (for various reasons, including card quality), usually what the wife and I do is "we pay for the PPV, you guys pay for the food." Works out pretty well, usually.

[Aquinas]

I'll just wait until WWE's quality matches the prices of their PPVs.

and keep waiting.....and waiting.....

Actually, one of my buddies has a techie gadget that allows him to watch PPVs for free. He brought it over and hooked it up to the TV so that was awesome. Then we bought the food and everybody brought their beverage of choice.

But usually I only am willing to buy WM, SummerSlam, and the Royal Rumble. The rest of them aren't worth it.

More or less my "big three" as well, although I usually substitute Survivor Series for SummerSlam when the card persuades me to bother (hint: more elimination matches!).

But other than that, I'm in the exact same frame of mind as Aquinas: the cost just doesn't meet the product 3/4 of the time.
