JRV Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Surreal main event with Jon Moxley having a wild brawl to headline a WWE pay-per-view, and Steena (man I'm drunk leave me alone) winning over fans worldwide with an unimaginative kickout match. Also I skipped thru the match, but never let that pale diva near a live mic again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I loved the shit out of Cena and Owens. I'm not big on Cena getting his win back so soon but the way it was booked was perfect. Yes, they did push finisher overkill into 5th gear but my argument is that this is John Cena vs. Kevin Owens. I think established stars should get some leeway. Cena was great. I was going nuts over him arguing with the ref and shit. He was like LeBron James out there. The best in the world but FUCK YOU HOW DIDN'T I GET THAT CALL?! the post-match stuff was very cool. Owens lost but so what. We're 1-1 now and who has the referees carrying him out? Not me.. Awesome laugh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 If the apron Powerbomb gave Cena a storyline injury, Owens should come out on RAW and talk about how Cena said he was going to be a fighting Champion and defend the belt every week, but he actually hasn't defended it in 29 days. And looking the the Pro Wrestling Statute book, there's this little obscure, largely forgotten thing called the 30 day rule... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I'd love it if someone actually brought the official wrestling rulebook into the ring and pointed it out. Like Kramer when he was carrying around the golf course rulebook after his friend killed a guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I like that Cena doesn't want to shake Owens hand or give him the "you belong here, I respect you booker-man" head nod until AFTER he beats him. Like dude, the appropriate time to extend that olive branch would have been when the guy pinned you cleanly LAST MONTH. Nobody wants a wink and pat on the ass when they just got beat. Cena's character is such a subtle asshole.So you missed where he said he was going to come out and shake his hand on the RAW after EC until Owens ran his mouth and called him a fraud? I get that, but Cena is the moral compass. He's supposed to be above the "you insulted me, so I'm gonna insult you back" stuff. If he's the bigger man, he brushes off the insults and says "you beat me last night, you were the better man, but I'll see you down the road."When Cena loses, he runs back and immediately get a re-match. When he wins, he wants to tell you how hard you worked and how proud he is of your progress. Chin up, kid. Wait, so the guy whose clapback game was strong enough to make the Rock stutter and stammer for a response is supposed to just sit back and let a dude call him a fraud? I thought people were tired of faces being toothless?Second paragraph is just being silly. God, the night Cena destroyed the Rock on the mic remains a top ten all time RAW segment in my book. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, will it ever stop being surreal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overly Critical Man Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Maybe it's just me, but I don't get how an apron powerbomb is suppose to cripple Cena, but two buckle bombs into guardrails(which both looked way worse than the apronbomb) followed by a running Liger bomb onto a ladder with ten chairs on it doesn't permanently cripple Dean Ambrose.

Ramsey Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hey...did you see how, after Triple H gave a "go get 'em, Tiger" speech to Rollins, he BURIED Ambrose in chairs?!?!? He BURIED HIM.... See...because Triple...H...sometimes... I'll see myself out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Kevin Owens' Powerbomb is a Finishing Move, so doing it anywhere but in the ring (or onto anything but the mat) is Murder Death Kill. Seth Rollins' Powerbomb is a set-up move, so doing it outside the ring is painful but recoverable. Roman Reigns' Powerbomb is a new move that he only just learned how to do, so doing it onto a Ladder, or onto a guy lying on a ladder is just a' You'll feel better after a nice lie down' situation.

JCM Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 A guy listed at 218lbs shouldn't be doing power bombs anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stro Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Owens has to get rid of the package piledriver into a powerbomb. It has less impact and height than a standard powerbomb. There is no way that move should be devastating. He probably shouldn't do a sit out powerbomb if the papa powerbomb is going to be his finish. Unless he's Mike Awesome and makes 80% of his moveset powerbomb variations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if this was 1985, I'd say cocaine. But it's 2015, so the answer is probably painkillers..... chased with cocaine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stro Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 The divas finish was amazing. Brie flashing her vag and pulling out her bra stuffing to prove she wasn't Nikki. That's some Russo at his TNA peak stuff. Just hilarious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THEmanWITHnoNAME Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 2. For now on the refs should determine the correct Bella by having them show off their tramp stamp. I mean Brie showing her vagina tat to prove identity is amazing Have you ever been with a woman? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marty Sugar Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I feel bad that Ambrose and Rollins keep killing themselves in matches that are overbooked to shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 The Rollins/Ambrose match I liked the most was either the Lumberjack match at SummerSlam 2014 or the one from the 4th of May RAW this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Sugar Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 It wouldn't have killed the WWE to either put the strap on Dean for two weeks and lose at MITB, or have him win in Ohio and have Sheamus cash in that night. The fact that the guy who wins MITB didn't cash in at any point when both Rollins/Ambrose were dead on the floor makes the whole concept of the MITB even more ridiculous at this point. If Sheamus cashed in, you have five weeks to build to new things and see what happens at Battleground: WORLD TITLE: Sheamus vs. Ambrose Kane vs. Rollins (because Authority is crumbling) [/armchairbooking] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overly Critical Man Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 In that scenario, you could still book Brock vs Rollins as a punishment match for Rollins losing the title tbh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick B. Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Finally caught up on MITB. Show was fine for what it was(though I knew the results ahead of time so that may have been a factor). Nothing really blew me away, to be honest. Weird to see Cena turn into the indie MOVEZ~! guy in big matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And looking the the Pro Wrestling Statute book, there's this little obscure, largely forgotten thing called the 30 day rule... A perfectly healthy Brock went four months between title defenses last year. If no one brought it up then, why should they start now? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
