Ok, you know what is grinding my gears? This Sunday is "Cyber" Sunday...A pay per view that has gone through so many changes. From being a prototype on Tuesdays and then it moved to Sunday and became Cyberish. But...now...they are taking the fun out of Cyber Sunday....BY HAVING YOU TEXT YOUR VOTE!
TEXT!?
What the hell, man? Cyber Sunday is supposed to be...CYBERISH! It has nothing to do with texts. Cyber Sunday should be directly in the hands of the internet and not the palms of your hands. The even more shitty part is the fact that you have to pay 99 CENTS to do it......ON TOP OF THE AMOUNT THAT YOU HAVE FOR TEXTS! So, for me (cause I have the GoPhone plan with no "unlimited" texts) That is over a dollar for each text.
I am not going to pay for something that, honestly, I can do for free on the internet. I do like the matchups, the possible feuds, the Honkey Donkey Man, Golden Dust, and Roddy Stupid Piper all being in a match....but I am not going to pay for something that I have been doing ever since Taboo Tuesday. I am not going to waste my money on the show, if I am not going to be at the show or watch to see what's going on.
But everyone knows the reason for it....the money. Vinnie Mack is tryin' to suck the money out of your wallet as fast as he can...and, trust me, it is working. The majority of voters will wind up being teens and pre-teens that voted 10s of thousands of times for people that they don't even care about it, do to the fact that John Cena is not one of the choices in any of the matches.
That is all the WWE is trying to do...make money. Cyber Sunday, when it was Cyber Sunday, was revolutionary. Now, it looks like they are just about ready to scrap the Cyber Sunday deal all together by taking the Cybering out of the damn name.
The WWE NEEDS to change it's rules on Cyber Sunday...because, this time, it is not about money. It's about the fan interaction. It's about the fun to be a wrestling fan. It's about the fun to have power in your hands (without having to pay). It's about the reason why Phone Sex Sunday is your Elephant in the Ring.
