I dont want Jericho to return at No Mercy, I want him to make a surprise return on Raw. Vince should be special guest on Carlito's Cabana and then out of nowhere the Save us 222 video appears, then its the Y2J countdown and Jericho appears and insults Carlito and says that the Highlight reel is the only show on MONDAY NIGHT RAW

I love how a good number of folks are talking about WWE taking ideas from ROH/NIN My question is...did NIN do their thing before ROH did? If so..shut the f*** up about copying.
Furthermore, I *do* see how WWE is 'copying' ROH. That save_us.222 video had all kinds of creepy images, such as the bloody Statue of Liberty and the hanging of people. They even showed the Brisco kids in the save_us.222 video! Didn't you see it!?!
ALL TEH WWE DOEZ IS COPIE TEH ROH!! ROH FO-EVAH!!!!!!!
Give me a f***ing break.

Guys, ARG stuff has existed before ROH or NIN did it. Its different people following a trend, not necessarily copying each other, exactly.
Anyway though, No Mercy really does seem too soon. I bet something big might happen there but we won't get a real reveal.

So this is WWE officially copying ROH? ROFLMAO Not really. No. I dont want Jericho to return at No Mercy, I want him to make a surprise return on Raw. Vince should be special guest on Carlito's Cabana and then out of nowhere the Save us 222 video appears, then its the Y2J countdown and Jericho appears and insults Carlito and says that the Highlight reel is the only show on MONDAY NIGHT RAW Giving it away on free TV is an absolutely horrible idea.

Yeah, if it's on PPV, people will order it. And the moment it starts, they're committed to paying the cable company.
If it's on Raw, they'll just flip back and forth between that and Monday Night Football. And once it happens, they won't flip back. So much for a ratings increase.

Dumb question - will No Mercy be WWE's 222nd PPV?

It had to happen eventually. At least it was the Pop Up Video version... man that's twice for me in one day. First in OT... now this one.

At least WWE is realizing how effective, and interesting viral advertising and marketing is. Everything from videogames (Halo), music (Year Zero, hint hint), TV (Lost, Heroes), and even movies (Transformers had a HUGE one) have done certain types of ARGS (Alternate Reality Games), that vary in scope from simple false websites and fliers to stuff like I love Bees for Halo 2, which actually had people running to pay phones in certain cities to get clues. I really doubt WWE will get anywhere near that deep, but it's still cool to see them try something new. Also, for those that are interested in the Year Zero stuff that keeps getting mentioned here, www.iamtryingtobelieve.com/ is a good start.

I don't know if it was said already, but I'm saying it now:
All that info about music and shows and stuff. All that facts and knowledge in a computer......with possibly info on wrestlers and stuff in it.
GASP!
THE YORK FOUNDATION!
