Too bad Piper won't be a part of the selection as I heard earlier.

He said at a convention that he didn't want to be a part of it.

And the best thing about Cyber Sunday is that in the UK, it's on at Midnight instead of 1am thanks to the difference in daylight saving time...

You sure about that? Starting this year the US has the same DST start/end dates as the EU, I thought...

I didn't read that part, I thought he was one of the selections for the special ref duties.

Ah well, not like I was going to order it anyways.

US goes back on November 4th, UK on October 28th.

I only hope for some options that actually give a bit of a surprise.

No stupid choices like ... A debate, An Arm Wrestling contest or a street fight.

They could do an ECW title match ... choose the challenger, any superstar in ECW ... seeing as Punk as faced just about all of them.

[Baixo Astral]

I'm in the US when this is on... anyone in NYC got any idea where we could watch it?

[Steveweiser]

Punk Vs Big Daddy V

Choose between a drinking contest, drug taking or a Live Sex Match.

Your local hooters.

Otherwise, no idea.

Oh yeah, I'll be watching this live for free. ;D

I really think/hope Save_Us.222 concludes at Cyber Sunday. It'll probably be all the better for being more drawn out.

The rest of the show might be OK too.

How much you want to bet that those three stupid choices will be the ECW title match (except change Street Fight to One Fall, cause WWE dont like hard-core matches, unless a McMahon is in them)?

Rajah is reporting (so grain of salt with this one):

WWE Championship:
Randy Orton v. HHH in either Hell in a Cell, Falls Count Anywhere, or No DQ.

WHC:
Batista v. Finlay v. Rey Mysterio v. Great Khali with you picking the ref (JBL, Austin, Foley).

Anyway the next big vote for Cyber Sunday...Choose the new WWE Fathead!

WWE® Fans Vote to Determine Next WWE Fathead® Superstar as Part of Sponsorship of Cyber Sunday™

STAMFORD , Conn. , October 8, 2007 - Fathead®, the fast-growing sports and entertainment brand best-known for its life-size wall graphics, will give World Wrestling Entertainment® fans the opportunity to choose who should be named the next WWE Superstar Fathead through a cross-platform advertising and promotional campaign launched during the Cyber Sunday pay-per-view event on Sunday, Oct. 28 at the Verizon Center in Washington , D.C.

Fans will be able to vote for WWE Superstars Rey Mysterio®, Boogeyman™, Jeff Hardy™ or CM Punk™ to determine who should become the next WWE Fathead. Fathead currently produces big, bold 3-D-like vinyl wall graphics of WWE Superstars John Cena®, Triple H®, Undertaker®, Batista® and Bobby Lashley™.

Leading up to Cyber Sunday, Fathead will be highlighted in weekly WWE programming and will be incorporated in all outgoing WWE media, including cross-channel cable spots, a WWE Magazine ad and local cable TV and radio advertising in the Washington , D.C. area. Fathead branding and products will be integrated into the action during the Cyber Sunday pay-per-view event. WWE.com and Fathead will also host a sweepstakes after the conclusion of Cyber Sunday that will offer fans the opportunity to win a full set of signed WWE Fathead images.

We're ecstatic about our partnership with WWE and Cyber Sunday. To integrate Fathead products across all of WWE’s established media platforms is very exciting” said Brock Weatherup, CEO, Fathead. ”WWE has an exceptional relationship with their fans, and we expect the WWE Fathead line to be among the ‘must-have’ items going into the holiday season.”

Fathead will sponsor Cyber Sunday’s special interactive voting section that allows fans to vote on which wrestlers will face off, what the rules will be and other elements of the event. Fans have cast more than 10 million individual votes during previous Cyber Sundays. Fathead’s sponsorship also includes a mobile voting element, editorial integration and exclusive ownership of the Cyber Sunday section on WWE.com, including custom page skins and ads.

We're thrilled to help Fathead market its life-size WWE Superstars wall graphics. WWE’s unique ability to not only license its Superstars’ images, but develop deeply integrated programs across all WWE media assets will give Fathead visibility among the attractive male demographic while resonating with an active and loyal WWE fan base,” said Patricia Clark, Vice President of Digital Sales for WWE.

In 2006, WWE entered into a licensing agreement with Fathead that allows for the creation of life-size vinyl wall graphics depicting WWE Superstars. All images use high-resolution 3D graphics, and are currently available for purchase at www.fathead.com and www.wweshop.com.

Wished they change Khali for the Undertaker. Probably have 1 or two stupid Diva contest. Women's Title(Pose off(if Melina), Bra and Panties, something else stupid) and Divas Battle Royal(Swimsuits, Goofy Costume, Lingerie-real choice should be who gives a crap)

[Kae]

What I don't like about Cyber Sunday is how the choices are so obvious. I sometimes wonder if they even bother to rehearse the other matches.

Me too. He was actually originally planned to be in this match, but now there are reports of him being hurt again, which sucks. If he is hurt though I think he should sit out these PPV's and rest up for the big ones like Survivor Series, Royal Rumble, and of course Wrestlemania. It'll be ashame to not have Taker healthy around Wrestlemania time. Get well Taker.

This is a little off the beaten path, but...

doesn't the ppv name "Cyber Sunday" seem to have a bit of a double entendre? Cyber Sunday.

Then again, the ppv could have been called "One Night Stand"

[rrg251]

What I'd do, keeping things somewhat realistic:

WWE Title: Orton vs. Michaels with the choice of three stipulations, the most likely being Hell in a Cell.

World Title: Batista vs. Khali vs. Finlay vs. Misterio with the choice of referees, the most likely being Austin.

Women's Title: Battle royal with the choice of three sexy outfits.

ECW Title: Punk vs. Big Daddy V with the choice of three types of involvement for Striker between timekeeper, ring announcer, and participant.

US Title: MVP vs. Hardy with a choice of 1 Fall, Best of Three, and Best of Five.

Triple H vs Umaga in a Weapon on a Pole Match. Two poles are set up at opposite corners, fans vote on five weapons, top two vote getters are on the poles.

WWE Tag Titles: Cade and Murdoch vs. Highlanders vs. Londrick with a choice of which team can fight without fear of disqualification.

William Regal "vs." Jonathan Coachman "vs." Hornswoggle in a Loser Wears a Dress match with a choice of who gets to sit on a throne at ringside and watch the other two compete.

IC Title: Jeff Hardy vs. choice of opponent.
