October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635911 Hey, they finally got to use the hologram. I can't wait for hologram Andre vs hologram Rusev.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635915 I thought the whole on top of the cage and double table spot wasn't needed at all. I'm not a fan of over use of weapon shots. Both guys worked real hard. The crowd feels ripped off by that finish. I'm not sure if the finish helped anyone. Came across as a spectacle as opposed to a match.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635916 hmmm, hottest babyface in the company screwed out of the main event in the cell and then transitioned into a feud with Bray Wyatt. Swore I've seen this tale before
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635917 I liked the match, didn't love it. I wanted to love it, tho. I'm torn on the post match stuff. I like when Bray does the creepy shit, and this might have been his best effort yet. But it just didn't fully click.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635919 Ambrose-Rollins in the Cell - The pre-match was fun but really forced. The match itself had some fun spots but was lame overall. That finish was some Rumble 94 shit with the FUCKING APPARITION in the ring.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635920 Best part of the whole night was the R-Truth Network promo being the first thing you see after the Bray outro Me and my brother legitimately laughed our asses off. It was so great.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635921 Do that match again. Remove the top of the cage stuff, the interference by Noble, Matthews & Kane. Take away the announce table spots, add blood (yes, fucking blood for the blood fued in the cage match, damn it), have Ambrose win w/ the cinder block finish THEN have Wyatt do the run-in. Would have been a lot better, given us a resolution to the last PPV & a reason to tune-in tomorrow.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635923 I fear WWE "storytelling" at its worst in the Ambrose/Rollins match. I hope i'm wrong. Welp. This company, lol. Such shit.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635927 You know WWE will never listen to any negative feedback about their shows anymore because of the WWE Network. They'll just say "it's only $9.99 for three hours of entertainment." I didn't think the show was bad. I think it looked better on paper than what happened. I expected more out of the matches that I anticipated. Bellas did a lot better than I thought they would. I really liked the Rusev stuff. There were some good spots throughout the night too. I'm not completely sour on the whole show. I just expect more from certain individuals and WWE constantly steps on their own feet.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635928 Best part of the whole night was the R-Truth Network promo being the first thing you see after the Bray outro Me and my brother legitimately laughed our asses off. It was so great. So did my son and I.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635929 so the main programs look to be Orton/Rollins and Ambrose/Bray. Have no idea what Cena does until the Brock match at the Rumble. He'll probably be inserted into the Rollins/Orton stuff to the delight of no one but Vince
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635930 I hope that the lack of a world champion means we have a traditional Survivor Series match on top for November. I want Wyatt, Harper, Rowan, Stardust, Goldust vs Ambrose, uh...well, the Usos, so that'd be two of them. I can't even think of who to slot in there. Is that a me problem or a WWE babyface depth problem?
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635933 I liked the match, didn't love it. I wanted to love it, tho. I'm on the same boat.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635934 I feel like WWE needs a complete overhaul. No more Vince in charge. No more Kevin Dunn vision. Call up a bunch of NXT guys, start new feuds, change the look of the show, set & start fresh. Everything right now just isn't working. WWE are making money, that was a big crowd tonight, I just hate the direction of the show. The cameramen are awful, the commentators are terrible, the wrong people are getting ample amounts of TV time...it just really feels a lot like late WCW. John Cena & Randy Orton combined have 27-world titles between them. That pretty much sums everything up for me. WWE is so horribly overexposed right now, they need new faces, a new look & a new direction. No more building the entire federation around one Hulk Hogan style babyface that conquers all like it's still 1985.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635935 holy shit Coffey I was just goiing to post that. It's gotten to a point where I think the only way WWE will completely get behind new stars is if Vince is ousted. The praise for Hunter is probably being overstated and he probably isn't the savior he's been made out to be but there is no doubt in my mind that he would be doing better than Vince now at least at this moment
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635937 They're doing well enough financially that there's more to lose in trying to take a risk than to gain by actually taking it.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635938 They're doing well enough financially that there's more to lose in trying to take a risk than to gain by actually taking it. That's been the case for the last 7-8 years, sadly.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635941 It won't be the case forever. And if they wait too long to take a risk when they do go to take one it will be too late. How many more people are going to cancel their WWE Network subscriptions?
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635942 I'm well and truly mystified by some of the praise for this show (on Twitter, not so much here). Even the stuff I liked, such as Bellas and Rusev-Show, felt minor key. The potentially exciting lower-card matches underdelivered, even if they weren't bad. And the big matches were dull in the case of Cena-Orton and genuinely off-putting in the case of Rollins-Ambrose. Overall, the show left me the lowest I've been on WWE in years.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635943 This exchange during Miz-Sheamus... Cole: Do you think it makes Miz mad that crowds cheer for Mizdow? King: I don't think so...The Miz created him... ...was just an amazing piece of meta-commentary on the psyche of Vince McMahon.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635947 Here is what I would wish for Survivor Series: Dean Ambrose & BIg E & Usos vs Bray Wyatt & Luke Harper & Goldust & Stardust John Cena & Randy Orton & Tyson Kidd & Kofi Kingston vs Seth Rollins & Kane & Ryback & Curtis Axel Big Show & Mark Henry & Sheamus & Jack Swagger vs Rusev & Bo Dallas & Heath Slater & Titus O'Neill Dolph Ziggler & Darren Young & Diego & Fernando vs Cesaro & The Miz & Damien Mizdow & Fandango AJ Lee & Brie Bella & Naomi & Natalya vs. Paige & Alicia Fox & Niki Bella & Layla
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635948 Man, I applaud the effort it must take to find a way to crap all over this great show. That's some serious will power to deny what have to be creeping feelings of joy. When the guys at Segunda Caida are loving something, and you're too cool for school, might be time to reevaluate things. That was a better and more entertaining show than anything I've seen this year.
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635949 I didn't like the show and I don't think I'm "too cool for school." The ending was awful
October 27, 201410 yr comment_5635950 That was a better and more entertaining show than anything I've seen this year. Sorry you haven't had much time to watch wrestling this year.
