Thanks for ruining SmackDown people. This. I come here to discuss wrestling, not to find out what's happening next week. I'm noticing it more now, people are just coming on this board and posting spoilers. Personally, I like the surprise, and avoid spoilers as much as possible, but this one has actually been made unavoidable by certain idiots. I'm kinda considering whether to leave this place for a bit, and hope that when I come back either people have sorted their poop out and stopped posting spoilers, or whoever's in charge puts a proper stop to it. Yeah this is a couple weeks in a row where someone has posted a spoiler & ruined something for me. Not like there already a whole section for them to post em in.

Well I don't particularly care for spoilers either. But if you think you can come on the internet as a wrestling fan and for the next four days NOT find out that a new World Champion has been crowned, then you have your work cut out for you. Use some common sense.

Use some common sense. Yeah, how damn stupid of me to go on a board where spoilers aren't allowed and expect not to read spoilers. Now to me, expecting people to post spoilers in the board designated for spoilers and expecting not to see spoilers where they're not allowed seems more like common sense to me.

Use some common sense. People dont usually post spoilers on here. I havent had a problem with this until recently. It's new members who need to be banned. So, you're wrong, as far as this message board goes.

I can understand most spoilers but this one makes an exception imo, its just baffling.

Yeah come on guys, use common sense. We should know better than to expect people not to post spoilers when they are told not to.

This is going to blow up well before Friday. Lets be smart here. Orton has already retweeted angry messages from fans and so on. The entire internet wrestling community is rioting and it only getting bigger. No way anybody who uses these sites will stay spoiler free.
Hiding from spoilers is stupid anyway.

So if not for the spoilers that were posted here on WFigs, you would've gone the next four days without hearing that Christian lost the title? You mustn't be too involved in the wrestling community then.
I found out this morning because I got a text from my friend this morning asking if I'd heard about the switch. I guess I should've exploded on his ass for the spoiler ;D

You mustn't do too much wrestling-related reading on the internet then. I found out this morning because I got a text from my friend this morning asking if I'd heard about the switch. I guess I should've exploded on his ass for the spoiler ;D Yep. I hear pretty much everything I want/need to hear on Wfigs. Honestly. And I avoid spoilers like the plague, mostly successfully, so I actually probably wouldn't have heard about it.

And it sucks if someone broke the rules. All I'm saying is, that for the most part, it's going to be pretty difficult to hide away from something like this. A new World champion was crowned, you know? It's not like someone posted a spoiler on a run-in or something. But if it ruined your enjoyment, then that does suck I guess.

I agree spoilers don't need to be mentioned on this part of the board, but something big like this, you will find out ahead of time. Facebook & Twitter are full of posts about it.

I can honestly say I've never actually had I title change spoiled for me in my time here. Hell, I've barely had anything big spoiled on here. It's just lately it seems some members just post spoilers on here anyway, instead of just posting them in the spoiler board. And that pisses me off, because I don't want to hear it. Bottom line is, people aren't allowed to post spoilers for a reason. Doesn't matter how big or small it is. Edit: I don't check wrestlers facebook or twitters either. The way I see it, if anything big happens, someone will post it on here.

List of people I hate (in order): Randy Orton the guy who posted spoilers
Posted my rant in the spoiler board. All I needed to see was a deleted in here thread titled 'F*CK YOU WWE' and I knew exactly what was up.

At least this spoiler will save me a TV screen.
Unfortunately, I broke my laptop screen.

Friends, family, etc. It blew up rather quickly.

Although I'm pissed that Christian lost, I think the Orton hate is a bit harsh: 'scuse him for doing his job! But seriously what the were WWE thinking here? Normally I'd be pissed for spoilers but there was no avoiding it: It was splashed all over my Twitter feed.

Point is, I wouldn't have heard about this if it wasn't spoiled on here.

I like him (though admittedly I do think his championship reigns have all been kinda boring). That being said, he did have the option of saying no. He has enough pull backstage nothing would have happened to him.

Granted, I run a website and a Twitter so it was more likely I'd find out about it than someone who is a little more isolated, but I still think this is big news that's beyond a mere 'spoiler'.
