WingedEagle Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 I'm not going to lie, they had me with the confetti. Then HHH hung around a little too long and you knew what was coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goodhelmet Posted August 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Ok, too bad my prediction didn't come true. The finish sucked. Evolution Version 2. John Cena vs. Daniel Bryan - Great slow building match with Bryan winning. Now HHH can beat Bryan next month to show him his place. Hell, we knew this was coming.

Log Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Man, Triple H was hanging around too long on the celebration. I had a bad feeling that was about to happen. At least H wasn't annoying in the match itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 I'm kind of relieved they did the logical thing.Now they can have Bryan chase. I'd have him chase all the way to Mania and get the belt there but there's no way they can do something that longform in 2013-14. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stiva Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 That John Cena can be a transcendental motherfucker when he wants to be. If they actually build on this and it goes to a Bryan redemption victory over HHH and Orton, it'll stand up as a good angle but man, I have no faith in them at ALL. That crowd was the loudest it's been for years for the main and the final angle, or at least it sounded that way through my crappy laptop speakers.

goodhelmet Posted August 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 Shit ending and shit opener aside, after the wounds heal, this may go over as one of the greatest in-ring Summerslams ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NintendoLogic Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 So what happened? Did HHH Pedigree Bryan so Orton could cash in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan Waco Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 I"m amused by people being upset at the finish as I actually think in many ways it's the best possible scenario for Bryan long term assuming that he feuds with Orton and not HHH. Also don't see anyway that was a slow building match. I really did enjoy the hell out of it, but it was a bomb throwing, video game affair if I've ever seen one. Great match within that style but it absolutely was within that style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrisZ Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 They went with their long term Wrestlemania angle so they stuck with it. Orton & Trips are now back in roles they needed to be in plus DB is made and wouldn't surprise me if he won the title back next month.

I think Survivor Series (or whatever the new PPV is called) is a logical point for them to build to him winning it back. How convoluted it gets on the way is another matter all together.

I kinda thought this would happen. I'm not too down on it yet. At least Bryan is going to still be involved in the major storyline. Not some shit where he's champ, but the McMahon drama is the "real" main event or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Punk would have feuded with anyone but HHH in 2011, his momentum would not have been killed. I feel that HHH goes over Bryan in a NO DQ match next pPV and kills Bryan dead.

Great match within that style but it absolutely was within that style. It kind of lost me when they were kicking each other and slapping each other, I will admit. But yeah, I seriously don't get people bitching about this. It was iconic. It was a moment. It'll also be pretty hard for them to screw it up, or let me put it this way. It'll be a lot harder for them to screw it up than a lot of other scenarios. We could have easily just gotten another shitty Rey Mysterio type reign.

fakeplastictrees Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 So what happened? Not watching show. Daniel Bryan beat John Cena in the middle of the ring to win the WWE title. Cena leaves, DB celebrates, Orton interrupts. Orton fools everyone into thinking he is just showing up to play mind games with DB and then HHH hits DB with a pedigree. Orton cashes in and is the new WWE champion. I was honestly thinking HHH was going to hit DB with the pedigree AS SOON as Cena left and then HHH would leave with no explanation until Monday Night.

Log Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 If they can keep it to Orton/Bryan with Triple H in more of a mentor role, it'd be ok. I just hope Shawn Michaels doesn't get involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 What is confusing me is that Vince is the one who thinks that Bryan is shit and shouldn't be a champion. So the angle of the McMahon fighting each other now wasted on an even dumber return of the McMahon dynasty. Basically we are getting the 2013 version of the 2011 Triple H vs Punk feud except we have an actual wrestler instead of broken down Kevin Nash. Yeah this is going to suck.

If that happens Bryan is fucked, but that is a constant risk as long as HHH is alive. He didn't fuck up the match, Bryan went over clean, Cena is taking time off which clears the way for Bryan as face ace and Orton - who is vastly better as a heel - finally turned. Given what could have happened the end result was way, way better than I had feared coming in. Also this show fucking crushed every show I watched from the G1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
