I heard that since WWE will have 2 PPV shows close to that date, that SNME will barely get any advertisement on WWE programming. And with that airtime, be ready to see a low rating.

Yeah I think you are right and the funny thing is they are trying to expose SNME in order to draw higher PPV buys when they don't get the marketing campaign right for SNME and just push it really hard the last week before it airs. Last year's July SNME main event wasn't bad it is just that we were stuck with the never-ending storyline between DX and the Spirit Squad. Hulk couldn't even help it.

Thing is, Hogan doesn't draw by himself anymore, unless it's the match people have wanted to see for ages( Austin VS Hogan).

Hellwig · May 4th, 2007, 08:38 AM

Yeah you're right. I don't have a lot of respect left for Hogan after watching his show and hearing some of the things he did and said in the past. I never really liked Austin either; I don't know what it was about him but there was a period of something like 9 months where I stopped watching wrestling about the time he became big and when I came back I had no idea who he was and why he was so huge. Also that WHAT? Chant is enough reason not to like him. I would still like to see an Austin/Hogan match not so much for the wrestling but for the hype and the outcome of the match.

Baltek · May 4th, 2007, 08:55 AM

Well the outcome would be easy, Austin would walk out on the WWE again before the event because neither Hogan or Austin would want to be the one to do the job.

Hogan vs. Austin would be a pretty neat match to see. However, I don't think they would have it on a SNME, more likely Wrestlemania! Maybe those two in a tag match against a heel team seems more likely for a SNME. Then neither one had to do the dirty.

I thought SNME was cancelled after the horrible ratings it drew?.....

JoseA · May 6th, 2007, 12:48 PM

Anyone know why they are having this show only 90 minutes, instead of the typical two hour show? Did NBC want to not have wrestling on that long, or what?

Baltek · May 23rd, 2007, 09:45 AM

Too poor ratings for the previous SNME is the reason it's been shortened.

Saturday Night’s Main Event will be airing in Canada on Global TV, which is a major step up from last year when it aired on City TV and drew horrible numbers.
