Loss Posted November 14, 2014 Author Report Posted November 14, 2014 Last few minutes. Only Russo could headline a PPV World Title tournament final in Toronto with Bret Hart vs Chris Benoit and make it pretty heatless and unmemorable. Bret wins the title and even celebrates with his family while fireworks go off, but the whole thing rings hollow as part of a booking philosophy that doesn't emphasize titles or good wrestling. Quote
Tim Evans Posted September 6, 2015 Report Posted September 6, 2015 It sounded like the heat was piped in. Bret wins and the fans throw garbage at him. Was the heel in the match? Then his family comes in and it just comes off as hollow. Quote
tim Posted February 13, 2016 Report Posted February 13, 2016 The work we saw here looked good. More competitive and less exhibitiony than their October match. Quote
PeteF3 Posted May 14, 2018 Report Posted May 14, 2018 I liked the struggle over the suplexes and holds at the very end, and I don't see the lack of heat either--the crowd seemed pretty legitimately loud for this, of course that message would be completely lost on Russo. Quote
