Parties Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 The post-match rudo work from Sheamus was awesome. Best heel they have right now. Nattie's costumes getting more grandiose as the manager of popular heels has been great as well. Were Owen/Davey cheered as heel team? Title change felt like a good 1997 deal where genuinely annoying guys would win with genuine heat. Reality era version of New Age Outlaws or Billy & Chuck winning. Really good match. As a PG version of an Attitude era show, this has been really entertaining. Quote
Exposer Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Ambrose vs. Harper (Chicago Street Fight) - The first part was fun for the most part. The disappearance was goofy. The second half was goofier but fun. The finish was pretty anti-climactic for all the goofiness. Quote
goodhelmet Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 New Day vs. Cesaro-Kidd was way more fun than it had any right to be. Match of the night? Anyone disappointed that we didn't actually see Ambrose and Harper fighting on the streets of Chi-Town? Attitude era bullshit, maybe, but it would be so different compared to what we usually see these days. I am with you. I thought we would have seen Kane and a team of camera men pulling up to them fighting in the park. Quote
goodhelmet Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 OK... the reason I am watching this show coming up next!!! Quote
Bierschwale Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Ambrose's first PPV win in eleven months. All PPVs need to be at the Rosemont. Quote
goc Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Yea it really felt like they were actually building to SOMETHING happening with Kane being sent to go find them. They are putting Cena/Rusev on awful early. I feel like it's going to be hard to follow and they should have definitely put Reigns/Big Show on before it. Quote

Attitude era bullshit, maybe, but it would be so different compared to what we usually see these days. Realistically, they'd either be fighting outside a bunch of hotels or brawling in a car stuck in traffic on I-90. Either way, it should've happened. Quote
goodhelmet Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 That video was waaaaayyyyyy too long. Quote
hammerva Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Oh fuck the dreaded red and green lights. That isn't a good sign Quote
goc Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Oh fuck not the lights. I thought they learned their lesson on this. No joke that has immediately taken my expectations down. Quote
WingedEagle Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 We going to get some blood here? Quote
hammerva Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 If we get blood it is either hard way or an incredibly sneaky blade job. Trying to figure out why the wrist bands have a Russia or USA logo on it. If they get disconnected are they only allowed to be connected to the ones of their country Quote
CodySave Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Hate the strap match style rules in effect here, but it would be worth it if prior to Cena touching the fourth light, Rusev dislodges the whole lighting structure and turns it into a weapon. Red light going off with each strike. Quote
hammerva Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Also hate this chain is so damn long. No way a guy should be able to stop someone from outside of the ring on the other side Quote
Coffey Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 EDIT : If that Lana spot was planned due to them assuming the crowd would chant "We Want Lana" that was freakin' GREAT. Quote
goc Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Wrap the chain around your fist already! WTF is this?! Quote
The Chief Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Yeah, this isn't working for me. The stip is really limiting them and there's some awkward stuff, like Rusev going to the top rope when he never does that. Not clicking. Quote
Steenalized Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Unbelievably bad match given how much these two have clicked in the past and how highly I think of them. Gimmick totally killed what they have. And Cena's now 2-1 against Rusev, this time cleanly. Good thing he got that Wrestlemania win too. Quote
Exposer Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Cena vs. Rusev - (Russian Chain Match) - This was okay. The Lana spot didn't make any sense because Lana has never acknowledged the fans like that. Now she'll leave Rusev which will hurt him even more. The finish was really terrible. I hated it. Quote
goc Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Yea they didn't work to the potential of the stip at all. Way too much cutesy corner touching bullshit and not enough "hey let me wrap this chain around my fist and punch you with it." It didn't NEED blood but a chain match without anyone being punched with it is fucking blasphemous. Dusty Rhodes is blowing a gasket somewhere. Quote
The Chief Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Cena vs. Rusev - (Russian Chain Match) - This was okay. The Lana spot didn't make any sense because Lana has never acknowledged the fans like that. Now she'll leave Rusev which will hurt him even more. The finish was really terrible. I hated it. I thought the same thing. That's not consistent with Lana's character at all and it felt really forced. Quote
hammerva Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 By 2015 standards it was a perfectly fine match. But if this exact match was done in the 80's or 90's it would have killed the town. Wow that new entrance music sucked Quote
Coffey Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 ...what the hell? Did you hear that pop for the Bellas? What did I miss? Good for them! Quote
WingedEagle Posted April 27, 2015 Report Posted April 27, 2015 Naomi's ring entrance just grabbed the conch. Someone has a personality. Quote
