No, but knowing WWE they'll hit the panic alarm and rush through the angle now or bring Cena back.

Speaking of, watch Vince make a surprise return to address the controversy (perhaps interrupting HHH during his promo), then setting up the Hell in a Cell Main Event match. Yeah, that wouldn't surprise me. Vince seems to always pop up when the ratings for RAW go to absolute shit like they did last week. The ratings have barely gone to shit. Raw was still in the top 5 rated shows on the whole of Cable for the whole week as it always is. It only dropped like .2 or a .3 which isn't that much. And it showed growth over each of the 3 hours which is great as usually it loses viewers as the show goes on. |

When half of your crowd is chanting "refund" and the other half is chanting "bullshit", you better apologise.
Musicians apologise for bad shows or albums
TV writers apologise for bad episodes or stories (which this is)
I think fans are still gonna be mad here even if Steph walks out there tonight and personally gives every fan a blowjob.

This is your opinion. As I mentioned above, I didn't think it was a bad episode at all. And the crowd reaction last night doesn't mean anything. Their collective opinion stopped mattering the second they started chanting nonsensical bullshit like "Randy Jackson." You want your outrage to be taken seriously? Act like you have some damn class. |

This "refund" business makes me so happy. It's understandable to try to draw heat at the end of a TV show, because you're selling the PPV, but when the PPVs end in these "screw you, fans" sort of finishes, what are you building to, exactly? The next PPV? If so, why do you think anyone would want to order it now?
I get the argument that it's a little shady that people who know what's probably going to happen are demanding refunds, but I'm hopeful that a lot of this is coming from people who aren't as smarky, for lack of a better term, and are genuinely pissed about the product. I just think it's wonderful that people have finally found a way to send a strong message to WWE about crappy booking.

I just couldn't get into the PPV other than the Rhodes vs Shield match because I knew we wouldn't see anything special. I didn't even pay attention to the main event because I knew we were getting a snoz finish. They need to stop that silly shit. I bet the buyrate was abysmal.

Dude, I was at December to Dismember. WWE WILL NOT acknowledge it, I'm almost certain. If any show deserved to give out refunds, it was that one. What a piece of shit. |

"We're sorry". "We're sorry" "We're sorry" "Sorry" When did HHH pedigree Zack Ryder? After the walkout show, in a WWE.COM exclusive, Ryder came back and said he couldn't leave HHH alone after all he did for him. HHH went "...THIS IS THE ONLY GUY I HAVE LEFT. THIS GUY." then pedigreed him. The crowd booed and HHH looked confused at being booed. The next day the segment was taken off WWE.com, presumably because he got booed. You can probably still find it on youtube though. |

Ariel beating up Kelly Kelly, making her cry, then pinning her by sitting on her face was better than just about everything on this PPV other than the tag match. |

That would involve HHH feeling empathy - which he cannot do.
The more likely scenario is HHH coming out and shooting on all the fans because they ruined his PPV.

We didn't have a 5+ page thread about this right? |

That's why they show an ad for the next one while this one is going on. I'll agree that for how much Battleground cost, they could've waited until Raw to do something like that, but (imo) Daniel Bryan winning or Randy Orton winning clean means the story is over. You have to give people a reason to tune in the next night and keep it going, which is exactly what Big Show standing tall did. I just can't understand demanding a refund because the outcome wasn't what people wanted. I even read that people were demanding refunds because of the power outage. That's just ridiculous to me. |

It's like Kane & Undertaker simultaneously pinning Stone Cold at (I think) Breakdown 1998, only for Vince to take Austin's WWF Title to declare "YOU DON'T HAVE IT ANYMORE! IT'S MINE! IT'S MINE!". It's like Austin getting himself fired for not counting the fall for either Kane or Taker in their WWF Title match. It's just a part of the story that's far from over, just like this Big Show business. |

We did, but I'm pretty sure it turned into a debate on the meaning of being a bro. First it was a thread about how Ryder wasn't a good bro because he left despite all HHH did for him, then the video went up and everyone went like "SEE RYDER WAS A BRO HHH IS THE ONE WHO SUCKS" Found it! officialfan.proboards.com/thread/418030The thread was originally named "Zack Ryder: Traitorous Swine." Then the wwe.com video came out and the title got changed. Can't find the thread for when we found out that the video got removed though. |

It'd be pretty great if Vince just came out without warning and said "Sorry about last night folks, seriously my bad" then left.
