Zoo Enthusiast Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Quick question, what happened to the IC title? Ryback has it but is out with staph. Quote
Coffey Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Quick question, what happened to the IC title? Ryback got staph so they pulled the match. It was supposed to be Big Show Vs. Miz Vs. Ryback triple threat. Quote
hammerva Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Lawler trying to use the same justification people had for Hogan in the 80's. Like Cena needs support Quote
cpst Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Quick question, what happened to the IC title? Ryback has it and he was just injured on Raw. Quote
topropepodcast Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Ryback had, I believe, a staph infection in his knee. It was supposed to be him defending vs. Big Show and Miz. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 These boxing shorts that Kevin Owens and Brock Lesnar both wear makes their legs look really skinny. Wrestlers should wear knee pads for this reason. I think the same thing about Cena's ankles. He should wear proper boots. Skinny legs is one of the great unspoken about problems with the current product. Quote
Coffey Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Kevin Owens still trying to play up the heel role when the crowd was vocally against Cena comes off as weird. "This is your hero!?" Obviously not... Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Pregnant pause count. Number 1, just after first cover. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Number 2, by turnbuckle after the awesome spot. Quote
Coffey Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Why are they working the exact same fucking match? They're just acting like the two previous matches didn't happen & that every didn't see them? Quote

Childs Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Third verse same as the first. Never want to see Cena-Owens again. Quote
hammerva Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Really pushing this Michael Cole and Kevin Owens thing. Seems like this is a running bit for Kevin in the WWE. If it turns into the RAW version of the Alex Riley angle then I approve. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Number three, after DDT from top rope and cover. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Excellent shoulder breaker! Which was him capitalising on the injured shoulder from the superplex thing from earlier. Edit: number 4! "That was just two?" Quote
jcmmnx Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 This is definitely a match with moves and kickouts. Can someone inject some psychology into WWE's style please? Multiple finisher kickouts cue the half hearted this is awesome chants. Quote
WingedEagle Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Third verse same as the first. Never want to see Cena-Owens again. Yeah. Its a good match, but third time in what, 6-7 weeks? Its overkill without time to breathe. EDIT: The thing tonight does have going for it is I'm not sure about the finish, unlike the second match. But it feels like watching the same match I enjoyed a months ago and again 2 weeks before that. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Pregnant pause 5 with added surprise, after AA for the top. Quote
hammerva Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Lets be honest. If this match was on a PWG or Ring of Honor show people like Jim Ross would be bitching and complaining for months and month on it. Not saying it is bad because I think this has been fun Well hopefully Owens is winning the belt at NXT Takeover because if not then I am not sure what is next for him. Cena winning isn't awful but we may think differently in a couple months Quote
WingedEagle Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 Nice babyface pop for Cena's win. That looked like it was clearly the best match of the night but I enjoyed Orton-Sheamus more because it somehow felt fresher. No clue if that makes sense. At least Owens should now really feel like part of the team. Quote
goodhelmet Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Posted July 20, 2015 Kevin Owens vs. John Cena - Early on, Cena is acting like he is getting destroyed but Owens didn’t really do anything to damage the great John Cena. - I will always pop for someone rubbing his forearms across an opponent’s face. - The replay on the DDT looked NASTY - I marked out for the Owens shoulder blocks - I am glad Cena didn’t get the springboard stunner and loved how Owens turned it into a German Suplex / Cannonball combo - This feels like the match where both guys are countering the big moves that worked in the first two matches. - I don’t give a shit… that package drop should have ended the match. - If they are going to play up an injured shoulder then Owens needs to debut a shoulder submission move. - Ugh… that springboard stunner into an Owens lariat spot was lame. - Too bad they went away from the shoulder angle because that package shoulder breaker would have been a great finish… or that Pop up Powerbomb …. Or the Top rope AA… ok we are in overkill mode - Well, I guess the Cena challenge continues. There is no reason for Owens to continue fighting Cena if he isn’t winning. Time to move on. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted July 20, 2015 Report Posted July 20, 2015 I gave the match from Elimination Chamber **1/2. I thought the Owens performance was better here and the match had better high spots. Shoulder injury also lent the match a wee bit more psycholgy. *** Quote
