hammerva Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 So you have Kalisto in the pre show list of matches and you don't put in the first match with only 15% of the building filled up again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Never thought we would need to do a drinking game with the phrase "Jimminy Crickets" on a WWE show but HBK is helping on that as well. Nigel being an Enzo supporter is really weird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raziel Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 That PPV ended after the first time in a year Brock decided to work, but still put AJ away with 1 finisher, right, because that was a great PPV... Except for that fucking Main Event, good Christ. Only good thing there is Braun demolishing everything and we might get Trip/BRAIN at Mania.

Jiji Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Spoiler When he wants to make somebody look good, few do it better than Triple H. Matches kind of under-delivered outside of Brock/AJ in my mind. Nothing awful but a couple goodish matches, outstanding match and then a bunch of dog shit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 The stalling until Braun finally killed Hunter had me dying.. That match fell off a cliff after Nakamura was eliminated though. It felt like it took the wind right out of the crowd. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonL21 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 I don't know if it was intentional, but man I could feel Booker's eyes rolling when he said "Ahhh, he comes Captain America" when Kurt ripped off his shirt" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Oh and I think if @Matt D had made a Lesnar bet, he would have taken another L. AJ Styles and Brock was AWESOME. What a match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HumanChessgame Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 The face vs face dynamic with New Day/Shield (at least I think New Day are currently faces?) took something away from the match I think. It wasn't bad but didn't do a ton for me either, probably because of how predictable Shield going over was. Women's elimination match seemed really quick. I'm really bummed Becky went out so quick and Nia's elimination was stupid but I guess they want to keep her strong or something. Askua going against multiple opponents was what I expected though figured she'd overcome a 3-1 deficit at least. Miz/Corbin was better than I was expecting. Corbin winning was the right move. The Tag champs match was really good as expected. Charlotte/Bliss was definitely one of the better matches of the night. Given Brock's track record for the past year+ I wasn't expecting much of the world title match, but this totally overdelivered. I wouldn't call this an MOTYC, but it was damn good. AJ is better at wrestling than most other people that wrestle. The main event had a couple of novelty encounters but other than that it was total bullshit, save for Strowman punking HHH. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victator Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 AJ/Brock was great. Did Russo book the main event? I think it is safe to say Braun is top face now and Roman should be very angry at whoever got him sick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 I would hate to think that they are using Strowman to build up Triple H for a match against Kurt Angle. Maybe they realize how crappy that match would be and they are going with Triple H vs Braun which should be much better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nate Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 If there was legit competition to WWE, Triple H giving a pedigree to Kurt Angle to save young upstart Shane McMahon would be their Fingerpoke of Doom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critts Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Those fucking shirts.... All the major stars not wearing shirts was great especially Triple H wearing his own branded shirt and Cena saying "my jorts are blue, good enough". Lesnar/Styles was the best thing about the show.

AJ's bumping.. out of this world.. Brock's selling on the leg after the reversal into the calf crusher, very good. Stiff shots from both guys. I'm not calling it MOTY or anything but I loved it. It's too bad that it was too predictable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 That was a lot like the last PPV in that most of the stuff before the main event was okay to great and the main event was a mess. Very WCW like unfortunately Can we put the New day on the 1st match of every major show because they are so great staring the show. Of course working with teams like the Usos and the Shield help 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beech27 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 —The branded shirts were dumb, and making Finn wear one during his entrance basically negates the reason he’s out there. —Nakamura had to go so nobody would start another “New Japan” chant. —AJ is the best. —The Usos are too. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 I thought they did an NXT chant when Balor and Nakamura went at it That main event felt a good deal like this 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
