Stiva Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 This match really needed a one and done Tombstone. This is such a strange thing; no need for it to be here, nobody really wants it, it helps neither man, hurts them both Quote
Steenalized Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 They're trying to hard to act like this is a knockdown, drag out brawl and a real showdown for the ages. It's none of that. Quote

Strummer Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 so do they do Steph v Rhonda at Summerslam or next Mania? Steph hinted at wrestling at mania next year during the week Quote
anarchistxx Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 An awful match is every possible sense. Slow, plodding, depressing, unnecessary. Quote
Jmare007 Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 Can Rusev retire Taker next year, please? Quote
goodhelmet Posted March 30, 2015 Author Report Posted March 30, 2015 Taker vs. Bray Wyatt - I laughed when he was called the greatest striker of all time as his punch looked soft as toilet paper - Man, Taker looks old here more so than at any other time - I thought it was over after the first Tombstone because I thought they were just going to give Taker his win and save time - I marked out for the Spider and Sit-up… until Lawler called it a Wrestlemania moment - Oh well, another old man wins tonight. Yay for old men!!!! - If last year’s theme was New Blood, this year’s theme is Grumpy Old Men Quote
Shining Wiz Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 Someone started a thread about whether wins and losses matter. That win didn't matter for Taker, but that loss really hurts Wyatt, unless it's going to be some sort of catalyst to advance his character, which I doubt. Quote
dawho5 Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 The Orton match was way better than expected. The finish was actually pretty good, which shocked the Hell out of me. Â Sting vs. HHH was awful. Except for the Sting shine, which actually was pretty damn good. Â The divas match was better than I expected it to be. AJ doing the Jumbo sell on the elbow off the apron was cool. AJ seemed much improved from 2013, as did both Bellas. Paige seemed like an afterthought once the heat was done. Â Rusev is really, really good but I thought something was missing from the match. I can't put my finger on what, but it just didn't blow me away. I'm not saying it wasn't good, just not great. I think they squandered the undefeated streak of Rusev with this booking. Give it to somebody more in need like Reigns. Â The whole Rock segment was too long and I already don't care about next year's WM. Â Explain why Undertaker needed to beat Wyatt. That makes no sense at all. Quote
Shining Wiz Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 so do they do Steph v Rhonda at Summerslam or next Mania? Steph hinted at wrestling at mania next year during the week That would be so bad. Quote
WingedEagle Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 Really unhappy how long that went. Don't want Lesnar/Reigns to be rushed. Taker really needs to quit. He looked like a neighbor of mine who has two sons that are the devil incarnate, just had his knee replaced and is always walking around like Andy Dufresne after the sister got to him. Just sad.

Stiva Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 Any chance of anything on this show becoming a "Wrestlemania Moment" organically is ruined by everyone trying to label it such as it's happening. Â There cannot be anymore Taker matches. All the heat and money went with The Streak. Wyatt needs a new Family desperately Quote
dawho5 Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 On a related note to that last match, I have to ask Parv this question. Did Undertaker look worse than Jumbo in his last few tours here? I say much, much worse. Quote
Exposer Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 Taker-Bray - I actually thought this would be worse. It was better than Brock-Taker except without the shocking finish. The Spider-sit-up spot was cool. Everything else whatever. Quote
Strummer Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 Â so do they do Steph v Rhonda at Summerslam or next Mania? Steph hinted at wrestling at mania next year during the week That would be so bad. Â Â Â it's going to happen though. Maybe they do a mixed tag Quote
Childs Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 Any chance of anything on this show becoming a "Wrestlemania Moment" organically is ruined by everyone trying to label it such as it's happening. Â One hundred times yes. They've lost any sense of how to present something organically. Quote
Zoo Enthusiast Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 Taker-Bray - I actually thought this would be worse. It was better than Brock-Taker except without the shocking finish. The Spider-sit-up spot was cool. Everything else whatever. I expected worse and got just "bad." I guess that's fine. Quote
Dylan Waco Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 To recap Show, Orton, Cena, Taker and HHH have all won Quote
conker8 Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 I'm such a mark. I believed that Undertaker was on great shape before the show. It was so sad to see him like this. Quote
anarchistxx Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 WWE spends far too much time chasing hashtags. Quote
jcmmnx Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 Orton over Rollins, Cena over Rusev, and Taker over Bray. They may as well go ahead and kill Roman too so no one under 40 gets a big match next year. Quote
Kostka Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 If Taker keeps wrestling every year, his new gimmick can be to have the worst match with whoever his opponent of the year is that year. (Bray this year, Brock last year, etc). Quote
