Talk:One Night Stand (2008)/Archive 1

extreme rules
is it true that all these matches are going to be extreme rules. im guessing no cos its not on wwe.com but id thought id just check that it was just a rumor.Black6989 (talk) 00:50, 19 May 2008 (UTC)Black6989

This is the fourth PPV for One Night Stand and every One Night Stand PPV before it was contested under extreme rules. All of the matches in the third One Night Stand had titles such as Stretcher, Street Fight, Cage, etc. where as the first two One Nigh Stands matches did not have titles in its matches but were in fact contested under extreme rules. So I would be 99.99999999...% sure that this One Night Stand would be contested under extreme rules as well. I say 99.99999999...% because until the WWE announces the matches for this PPV, which would probably start on tomorrow's episode of WWE Monday Night RAW, I cannot be 100%. I will be 100% when matches start being announced. Gibsonj338 (talk) 01:06, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

HBK Vs Jericho or Batista
Can we add that match because it has been offically announced on wwe.com in the last hourDeadman lastride666 (talk) 20:50, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I have properly added it. – L A  X  20:53, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Jeff Hardy V. Umaga
We dont have a history listed for the falls count anywhere match. I would add it but i can't edit wiki's very well, they have been feuding for a long time, with both winning the intercontental title from each other. This ppv's match is brought on by the double count out at the may 19 raw. Never doubt that a group of commited people can change the world, indeed it is the only thing that ever has. (talk) 12:41, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
 * That's because the feud hasn't excalated that much yet, until it does, it will be added in the background section.-- S  R  X   14:15, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Raw Event
Why is there so many Raw matches. I thought this was a tribranded ppv. It seems that Raw get all the matches. With up 2 3 matches for ECW and SmackDown put together —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.99.46.92 (talk) 18:12, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
 * That's just the way the event is being booked, and we have no control over that. Also, I hate to sound rude, but you might want to discuss such things on a message board. :) This space is for the improvement of the article.  Hazardous   Matt   18:20, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Theme Song
Does anyone know the Theme Song for One Night Stand (2008)? "Hell Yeah" by Rev Theory -G uf fa s  B or gz   7- 11:51, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Undertaker vs Edge
Can somebody add the undertaker vs edge TLC match. If undertaker loses, he will be fired. 66.184.196.251 (talk) 12:48, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Is there a reliable source, such as a WWE Broadcast or WWE.com announcing the match? If so, it can be added. If not, it will have to wait until it's confirmed.  Hazardous   Matt   13:18, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

On Smackdown. 66.184.196.251 (talk) 13:49, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * If these are taping spoilers we can't use them, they're not reliable.  Hazardous   Matt   13:59, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

How can Smackdown tapings be unreliable if people saw them with their own eyes? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.167.5.71 (talk) 14:39, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

That match is most likely going to happen knowing Vicki Guerrero. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.167.5.71 (talk) 14:43, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Please read the Backlash Talk so you can see this is something we go through every month for every pay-per-view. Reports from an unaired event by a spectator are not reliable. I could say I went to the Smackdown taping and Mick Foley beat Edge and Undertaker for the vacant championship, it doesn't make it true, but it has the exact same amount of credibility. We need a reliable source like WWE.com or a public airing of Smackdown. As Smackdown is edited, the final product can always differ from what was recorded. Sit tight, wait for a relaible source, and then it will be added. The article is not going anywhere.  Hazardous   Matt   14:51, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

You're proving my point because those reports turned out to be true. Just like this one will turn out to be true when you watch it tomorrow. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.167.5.71 (talk) 14:54, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay, 1) Please start signing your posts. It's becoming aggravating to respond to you and discovering I have to re-write an entire paragraph because SineBot had to put in four tildes. Please, sign your posts. 2) No, I didn't prove your point. I presented an argument against your point. Smackdown is edited, so the final product may not be what the live audience saw. Furthermore, the accuracy of the report cannot be confirmed. A report from "some guy at a show" is not reliable. It will be added when it's confirmed, not before.  Hazardous   Matt   14:58, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

1) Don't tell me what to do. 2) Smackdown is not edited to the point where it is a completely different show from what the audience saw, it only really edits cuss words and stuff like that so your arguement isn't valid. 3) Sure some guys report could possibly be wrong but why would he waste his breath, and furthermore probablity is on my side considering every report has been true. 68.167.5.71 (talk) 16:20, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 1) Thank you for signing your post. 2) Smackdown is edited, sometimes match endings are even re-taped. That in itself makes the justification for waiting for an official broadcast or acknowledgement on WWE.com reasonable. 3) The reason we do not take the word of a spectator as trustworthy, despite the legitimacy of past reports, is because the information is not coming from a reliable source. That's it. If you don't agree with that, you need to address this with WP:PW. I don't see a point in going around in circles like this.  Hazardous   Matt   16:34, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

I don't care about that. I am actually tired of you guys questioning what people saw with their own eyes. You guys can add the match whenever feel like it doesn't break or make my day. But stop questioning what people say unless it can be proved that it isn't true. 68.167.5.71 (talk) 16:37, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * WP Policy states that all information must come from a reliable source. "I saw it" constitutes OR, which is not permitted. I am not the one who needs to bring a source saying that what this person saw did not happen, it is that person's responsibility to provide a reliable source that confirms it did.  Hazardous   Matt   16:39, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

My point is you can't prove what he saw didn't happen. And he can't provide a source since wwe.com won't post it until after it has aired world wide on Friday. At that point not only will you be wrong but you will have made an ass out of yourself, unless you stop now. Furthermore I will not dignify another response from you. So Good Day. 68.167.5.71 (talk) 16:44, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Firstly, please remain civil when having a discussion. Second, please re-read my post saying it is not my responsibility to prove this spectator is wrong, but his responsibility to provide a source verifying his findings. Third, please quote where I said the information was incorrect. I was not saying the information was not correct, I was trying to explain to you why it was not from a reliable source and did not qualify to be included. If you do not want to dignify another response from me, that is fine, but please read up on Wikipedia policy so this issue can be averted in the future. Thanks.  Hazardous   Matt   16:47, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

It doesn't matter this page isn't for reports anyways that's what the freaking article is for. This page is for the discussion of the article. Hopefully this won't happen again at Night of Champions. 68.167.5.71 (talk) 16:55, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Correct, this page is for the discussion of the article. That's what we've been doing this whole time, discussing information that you wanted to have added to the article. And this sort of situation happens on every PPV page, usually every month. That's what I was trying to explain the policies used for verifying information, so we, at least the two of us, could avoid this in a month, and wherein you might be able to further educate someone else with Wikipedia policy as well. We'll add whatever information is confirmed on Friday, that's basically it.  Hazardous   Matt   17:01, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Bottom line, the match has not been announced on WWE TV or WWE.com, thus it will not be added.-- S  R  X   19:46, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
 * and i asked this question on every ppv-talkpage this year and it still remains unanswered. why is it Original Research (as Matt said before) when someone watches the event live, but it is not when he watches it on tv? both times, it is just someone saying he saw it. both times without a visible source. maybe i get an answer this time. Diivoo (talk) 17:25, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
 * just like i thought. again, everyone is quiet. pretty interesting that no one knows an answer... Diivoo (talk) 15:45, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Actually, when somebody goes to a live event, thats one person. One person is original research, but when it airs on TV, everybody on Earth can see it and it becomes a fact. If the one person at the event saw it, and reported something false, we would be giving out false information, which can't happen. King   iMat  thew   20  08  16:09, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Actually, a live event is often not held in front of a single person, but in front of about 7000 or 8000. sure, when it airs in australia, it airs in front of more people. but again, its just one or two guys living there, telling us what happened. and thats reliable? in my oppinion, not really... Diivoo (talk) 17:08, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
 * The point is that the thousand+ people at an event don't all run home and send in SD! results to spoiler sites. One or two do. If we had 8000 identical reports, I think those eyewitnesses would qualify as reliable. What reason would 8000 people have to lie? Gavyn Sykes (talk) 17:34, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
 * And the thousand+ australians do so? Diivoo (talk) 19:51, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Could we please stop talking about this. When Smackdown shows, we will know if this match is happening or not (most likely will). 76.110.82.251 (talk) 20:45, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

I saw it with my own eyes and heard it, Undertaker VS Edge in Chairs and Ladders Match, If undertaker loses, he will be fired. Plus Vickie Guerrero just announced it today.--24.224.154.249 (talk) 22:37, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Singapore cane match
In no were does it say that this match will be an object on a pole match so why does everybody keep writing that this will be on a pole so I am telling whoever blocked the page to change it into a five-way singapore cane match
 * Here it states

''In the match, a Singapore cane will be available for any of the participants to use, should they get their hands on one. Whoever is able to retrieve the weapon first will be able to clobber his opponents with it.'', thus being the first to retrieve it off the pole. So it will remain as it is in the article. Also, 5-Way is not a proper way to describe the match.-- S  R  X   02:39, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Listen SRX, in no were in that description does it mention the word pole so i don't know were you get the idea that it will be an object on a pole match if it does not mention the word pole so you should just write singapore cane match and stop messing with th description —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.237.193.61 (talk) 18:56, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Thank you to whoever changed this match —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.203.235.193 (talk) 22:54, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
