[Possible ARG] Save_us.222
WWE tries its hand at ARG

This started last week on WWE's monday night show Raw, where a video popped up that looked Matrixish, with the words Save_us.222 flashing like computer data, and other random codes as well. The announcers made no mention of it, and didnt mention it the next night on ECW or Smackdown on friday. At a house show (shows not on tv) flyers where found in the bathroom that read "Save_us.222" and now random links are found (usually wherever there is a 2 in a sentence) on WWE.com that takes you to the video.

This morning a wrestling website called Online Onslaught was "hacked" althought it is popularly believed that it was done by the sites webmaster himself to garner hits and it led you to a page saveus222.com, which after a who is was done it was done by some guy in europe so it was debunked. But then after trying diffrent addys Saveus-222.com was actually one that was pretty concrete with the who is saying it was a guy from Stamford (WWE's offices are in stamford) named Joseph Perkins, Mr. Perkins works for WWE. The site gave you a flash animation that looked like the video, and asked for a password. A page source was done and hex key was in the source that gave you the key and the pass word Key=WWE Password= JERICHO123ALPHA that led you to a picture of Icelandic Jericho.

Since the begging many believed this was hype for the return of Chris Jericho, one of the most popular wrestlers in the moder wrestling scene. Now is this an arg...and if it is..any idea how we could continue this??

It's probably just viral marketing for Jericho's return and upcoming book, but still, since Jericho is the most awesome thing in pro wrestling since Sliced Bread #2, it's worth watching. Smile
