March 29, 201510 yr comment_5661659 Barrett looked huge before his injury, came back noticeably leaner, now looks like he's filled back out
March 29, 201510 yr comment_5661660 As there are six men on the floor, I continue to think this concept is stupid.
March 29, 201510 yr comment_5661662 I'm not entirely with Parv but I do think I've hit the point that I don't get excited for these trainwreck gimmick spotfests. There's not a ton of room for storytelling here and it's just watching one car crash spot after the next while they cycle the next guy in.
March 29, 201510 yr comment_5661666 Jeez... That was a sick bump from Ambrose. That's the Wellness Policy Violation bump. Jesus CHRIST.
March 29, 201510 yr Author comment_5661667 Daniel Bryan vs. Dean Ambrose vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. Luke Harper vs. R Truth vs. Stardust vs. Wade Barrett - Early on, fun dive sequence - Fun ladder spots but nothing we haven’t seen before - It never gets old but it looks nasty… the powerbomb through the ringside ladder - Holy fuck… headbutt battle!!!!! - Greatest final 20 seconds in ladder match history
March 29, 201510 yr comment_5661668 Fun match, good for Bryan getting his IC title win and a nice moment again this year. Yeah, he should be higher, but this is at least something.
March 29, 201510 yr comment_5661669 I would have liked Harper or Ambrose being the guy up there with him at the end more. I don't entirely buy Ziggler in that role.
March 29, 201510 yr comment_5661670 Some super-cringy bumps in the ladder match - the superplex, the powerbomb, and that sleeper slam by Ziggler on Harper - but not quite as bad as I'd feared. Three-for-three on entertaining matches so far.
March 29, 201510 yr comment_5661671 Will's right on the money with the ending headbutt sequence. That was really amazing. And a good thing Randy Orton is on right now as I can take care of the rest of my laundry...
March 29, 201510 yr comment_5661672 Silly match with no flow or psychology or anything. The spots and things felt very 2000 to me. Headbutts at the end were of note, but I didn't enjoy this at all. **
March 29, 201510 yr comment_5661674 Ladder match was fun, but I liked it better the first time when it was called the opening tag match
March 29, 201510 yr comment_5661675 Thinking it's going to go Cena/Rusev next, followed by Taker/Wyatt, Sting/Trips, breather with Bellas/AJ&Paige, then the main event.
March 29, 201510 yr comment_5661676 IC Title Ladder Match - Started out hot with the dive trains, felt a little cliche and neither here nor there as everybody got their ish in during the middle portion, but the Harper/Ambrose powerbomb, the Barrett/Stardust ridiculous suplex off the ladder and a few other big spots picked it back up. Finish was really great. In an era before these matches were overdone this might've been a classic, but not in 2015. ***1/4
March 29, 201510 yr comment_5661677 The weirdest thing about that IC title match is that they had seven guys in there and past some bits of Ziggler calling Bryan a turd, I don't think that any of them really had an issue with each other. Also, why the heck did Rollins just do a backflip?
March 29, 201510 yr comment_5661678 I agree with Parv. I'm sick to death of WWE string-of-stunt matches, though I did like the finish and Bryan winning. It's just hard to watch them squander talented guys when you know an hour of Sting, Taker and HHH is coming.
