Matt D Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 I'm between Gregg and BLR with the table spot at the beginning. My issue is more contextual. We see that announcer table bump so often with far less consequence that we're a little desensitized to it. In a vacuum it works. In context, not as much, because the symbolic meaning of the spot wasn't enough to warrant the consequence. It's not their fault, but it's the truth of the matter. On the other hand, on paper, I don't think the length of the stretcher job works, but in the moment, it did. I was grimacing a little at the length right until she popped up and hit the EMT and the pop was huge. In this case, if it worked for that crowd, it worked period and the length was just right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NintendoLogic Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Another factor in the outcome of the main event: the show was in Boston. Never underestimate the importance of the hometown job. Regardless, hopefully it means the end of the feud and a Sasha heel turn or least a character revamp. Her current act as Eddie Guerrero's posthumously adopted daughter is pretty cringeworthy.

Go2Sleep Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 That's fighting spirit 101. Didn't know Demolition were part of the concussion lawsuit, but if WWE is so mad at them, why mention them by name every week? Seems like that would encourage people who don't know about them to google them and stumble into the concussion lawsuit story. I'm sure the answer is "It's Vince, don't ask." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her current act as Eddie Guerrero's posthumously adopted daughter is pretty cringeworthy. I agree with the last sentence, but the first sentence can't happen until she's had a rematch; and of course, she and Charlotte will team at Survivor series, extending the feud until the PPV after that (at least). I mean, they could just finish it tonight, but... they're fighting Sisyphus's boulder at this point, not one another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRR Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 People fantasy booking Bailey to the top of the women's division has become almost as funny as people thinking Joe is ever going to have any interaction with Lesnar. Im sure Charlotte and Bailey will feud by default of the merry go round of challengers but if you want these two on Mania or headlining the closest it will come is in 2k17. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Of course - in typical WWE fashion, there are going to be like a dozen feuds teaming with each other on Survivor Series teams so all of them will lose meaning. And the more I think about it - I have more a problem with Shane McMahon jumping off the top of the cage and getting back in the ring than with the opening Sasha/Charlotte stuff. Granted the WWE wants you to treat every HIAC match like it takes place in its own alternate universe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 And just because I am sick so in a pissy mode It is Bayley. B-A-Y-L-E-Y That's twice in this thread. Do I need to get Apollo Crews in here? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I miss the good ol' days when WWE had a developmental territory where guys like Danny Davis and Rip Rogers would teach the "you're not in Japan" lesson that apparently the HHH vanity promotion of NXT can't teach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted October 31, 2016 Author Share Posted October 31, 2016 48 minutes ago, goc said: Imagine complaining about Roman's selling on a night where this happened So... Here's my thing. Yeah, this sequence was ridiculous and all, but you could almost explain this as momentum carrying one spot into another. (Yeah, I know you can't, but still.) And the important thing... the crowd bought it and gave them a standing ovation. Compare that to the Chain-assisted Accolade. You could HEAR the crowd groan when Roman started to power out of it. And then after easily breaking out of Rusev's again CHAIN-ASSISTED finisher, he spears him for the finish. The crowd went meh and just died. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 People who cheer that stupid Owens/Rollins bullshit don't deserve to be made happy and I'm glad Sasha lost and wish every single one of them was left crying like that pic some creeper took of the little girl. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyLaw Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 I was half-awake watching it, but didn't Rusev let go of the chain-assisted accolade and switch to a regular one right before Reigns powered out? I think my biggest pet peeve with Reigns is when people hit him in the back or chest with a foreign object. Dude has a flak jacket with a padding along the spine, what's a couple of chair shots going to do. Why are you wasting time hitting him with a kendo stick in his padded chest protector? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Feel sorry for TJP, being on the business end of an angle Jose Feliciano could see coming. I think they need to milk this... like, have Kendrick's family outside TJP's house "in the snow," which is clearly soap flakes being shaken from a box over his window. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Or have Kendrick giving championship money to Heath Slater's kids, who Kendrick fostered for "just the price of a cup of coffee" via Sally Struthers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
