Isn't that Election night?

I don't know, ask an American. Super SD huh. Let's see if anything happens on this one. :haha:

Yeah, that's the night of the General Election.

 

[Lacky]

Yeah, that's the night of the General Election.

So I'm guessing the ratings would suck? If so what a stupid move by the E'

 

[Leo C]

Indeed, seems like a stupid move.

Honestly, that's hard for me to say. I mean, the ratings for Super SD always seem to be worse than regular SD, whether it's a bad time slot for competition or people not being aware of the change or whatever. But, then WWE and SyFy benefit from the show airing twice that week, which equates to a technical positive boost to their ratings.

This move surprises me a little bit though, and I'm not quite sure what to make of it. For those who aren't that interested in the election results, I suppose it would give them something to watch while steering clear of election coverage. Maybe that's what WWE is going for?

I don't know. Either way, scheduling it for that night just seems like a bad move by WWE. But then they've been known for making bad moves, so maybe it fits.

Because it's WWE and they're extremely stupid? :maybe:

 

[Big Hoss Rambler]

I hope he will be there too, ive been a fan for a long time but im doubtful he will be there.
Daniel bryan, I might cheer for, im not too keen on him but he has had some good promos in the past.
Im going to cheer for Wade Barrett too since hes a fellow UK citizen
