By the way this is basically a thread we have on niceboard and has proven quite sucsessfull basically i or someone else for instance mafish done one make a thread which will update with every show . Its just a place to talk about the correspondng pay per view. in this case GAB .not much to talk about yet but we will see if this thread proves sucsessfull and if it doesnt we can just not do thm in the future.

Im dissapointed another big HHH money match (after V's Cena) is being shown on a B class ppv. this should have been summerslam. Cena should have been Mania last year.

Im thinking at summerslam itll be Haitch v Edge but in a stips match . Just a gut feeling

I agree Marty, I don't think they need to defend the world titles on every PPV

The Big four yes, and after that I would have them alternating the world titles to every second show, so we always have a world title match but only one per PPV

Triple H and say the Big Show could have gotten into a programme with MVP and Edge which could have led to that being the SMACKDOWN main event at GAB

Thats the thing, if Edge is booked to win the title off Triple H you can bet Helmsley will beat him three or four times before Edge gets a victory which will no doubt be down to some dodgy heel trick anyway

I doubt Edge will win at the GAB anyway. I reckon if he is booked to win the title, he will do it at the next Sky Box Office PPV after Summerslam. I personally like having the world titles defended on B class PPV's. Obviously, the matches will not be as good as the ones on the A class PPV's but you hardly ever see the world titles defended on Smackdown/RAW/ECW let alone change hands. It is good to see world title matches when you can as they never seem to happen on the TV shows anymore.

does anyone else feel that triple h is just gna take the place of batista on SD in terms of the same guys in the main events over and over again?

i sincerely hope this doesnt happen tho, i think kennedy should have stayed heel, he would make a great US champ, and then within a year move up to seriously challenge for the WWE title
