Basically he says the names were flat in terms of what they wanted them to project and wanted the names to better reflect ongoing storylines.
He also says that they are considering dropping some of the off-brand PPVs to help maximized PPV revenue. I am guessing this is because they realize it's hard to get people to pay $40 plus tax for a PPV every 3 weeks.

I find this pretty funny. A Hell in a Cell based PPV would be interesting to watch. WWE Annihilation is just too... I don't even know how I could explain that.
Not sure if this should go here or get its own thread. It had been rumored, but not the Bell Centre's website has confirmed that every match at Breaking Point will be under submission rules: GEG / WWE Breaking Point - September 13, 2009

That means the Cena match will end how it usually does with an STFU. HBK & Triple H will use the Cripple Crossface in a desperate attempt to get more heat for their matches. Bear hug finish for Big Show & Henry and Orton will be the first person to successfully apply a chin lock for a tap out.
WWE.com has just changed "Annihilation" BACK to "Cyber Sunday". That makes me happy, I didn't like the Annihilation name. It also gives me hope that they will keep the voting theme (although all voting should be on wwe.com, not texting).

If it's WWE.com voting I'll happily spend the day trying to fuck with who they want or what stipulation they'd prefer. I spent 8 hours getting The Miz his ECW title shot in 2007.
That's a bit sad really Jake. All credit to you, but I doubt multi-voting from one person would make a single shred of difference considering the size of the "WWE Universe"...
