NotThePars Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Thought it was an alright PPV but by god that main event was a complete letdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FifeArab Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I just finished watching It there. Enjoyed watching Cena v Reigns because we won’t see much more of Cena and we should enjoy him while we can. Hopefully Finn gets a push now.

JamieStevenson Posted September 25, 2017 Author Share Posted September 25, 2017 Finn is likely the next to be jobbed out to Lesnar I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Watched it last night. Meh. An utterly missed opportunity. No one cares about Jordan because he's bland as f**k as a personality, and saying he's Kurt's son won't change that. He's good in the ring but that alone won't make folk like or care about him. Miz has carried the IC title to the extent that the division is pretty much him. Think he could still work in the main event scene. Pretty poor finish though. Bray Wyatt just needs to f**k off. Although the match was surprisingly decent, the outcome was never in doubt. Tag match was good and match of the night. Anyone notice Ambrose's delayed selling after Cesaro swings him in to the steps? It's like he realises the camera is on him a second or two after the move. Cesaro's tooth related botch was nasty as f**k. Guy is absolutely nails. Thought the match protected Ambrose and Rollins a bit too much, given how much they kicked out of. I'm thinking specifically of the spot where Cesaro powerbombed Rollins on to Ambrose from the top rope. Was a bit much, especially given how 'easily' the win came in the end. Still, two great tag teams who have good matches, so would like to see them again. Women's match was just the usual multi person mehfest. They've fucked the division with this constant multi-woman match stuff. They deserve better as most are quality. Reigns/Cena was just wasted. It reeked of desperation. If the Rock endorsing Reigns didn't work, then Cena doing so won't work either. The match was alright but felt quite rushed and was too often just a procession of big moves. This should have been massive but they fucked it. WWE will never get the message about Reigns, will they? Imagine if, after Cena raised his hand, Reigns kicked f**k out of him? You'd have a brilliant top heel. Enzo is so shit he managed to drag a bad match out of Neville, which I suppose is some sort of skill in itself. Just awful. Main event was rather poor. I think it's actually helped kill the mystique of Strowman a bit. It showed him to be fallible, that folk can hurt him, instead of protecting his monster image. The win did nothing for Brock, who really is quite dull these days. A DQ win for Brock with Strowman going radge would have been better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotThePars Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 If Reigns turns heel he's just going get cheered at this point. They're best playing up the cocky tweener role and just keep pissing the crowd off to help other people get over. It was a big part in Strowman's rise.

forameus Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Not really comparable for me - Strowman was hated because he was utter dogshit, then started to get people onside by getting a lot better and spending a lot of the time beating the shit out of someone the crowd hated.

DA Baracus Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Oh aye forgot to mention that them repeatedly calling Cena 'the greatest of all time' doesn't make it so. I get that they were doing so that Cena's endorsement of Reigns meant even more. It failed though since no one bought it. Also Reigns' spear on the announce table looked nasty as f**k.

DA Baracus Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Seemingly Cesaro didn't actually lose any teeth. They were just pushed up in to his upper jaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naw I meant Reigns being hated by the crowd was important in helping Strowman get so over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
