cena vs Styles in the "can we have a better Omega vs Okada match" match. This is probably going to be a long one

 

SEVEN STARS INCOMING ! (hey, it's almost 3 in the morning and I'd rather watch the Rumble match at this point. I am bored out of my mind)

"Papa Hales is my homeboy" :lol:

 

Man Cena is definitely hoping to miss a wellness test from the looks of it. Really jacked

Wow, man...I'm actually liking all the near-falls in this one, and that's usually my #1 complaint about the current in-ring product. I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a WWE-main event style match that much.

Cena vs. Styles

 

There is never a time I won't love these two doing their thing. I was concerned early as they basically went right into the big, non-finisher moves, but once it slowed down and they started selling this was great. Plus they didn't run too long with the finishers (at least compared with what they usually do). Love the AA & Styles Clash kickouts, loved the exection on the big stuff down the stretch, and loved how it was a super clean finish. A real highlight were Cena's lariats, which were built up and sold so well, featured terrific bumps from Styles and given time to really matter. Plus this absolutely makes the Rumble that much more of an open question. Loving this show.

 

****1/4

Styles-Cena: As always, to hell with any time the champ enters first. Surprised by how much more amped this bar crowd is for this than Owens-Reigns. Styles' entrance was their biggest pop of the night, Cena the biggest overall reaction (mostly boos and singing along to "John Cena Sucks"). Really good exchange of power moves and near falls in the modern Center tradition. The Calf Crusher into the STFU suggest why these two are cut from the same cloth. Crowd was uproarious for the Crossface. Loved the Figure 4 tribute: really cool, smart moment. The closeup shot of Cena's eyes launched a thousand GIFs. Crowd was split about 50/50 on the finish but went ape in the final moments. Very cool match, even if I'm worried about the title changing two weeks from now. Consider AJ's year, from entering the Rumble last year to now.

And to be clear, I liked the Summerslam match. They have great chemistry. Just felt very similar. (The part I saw. Will watch the whole thing tomorrow.)

Loved that submission reversal sequence before the all the nearfalls started. And those lariats were nasty, where did they come from?

 

Kinda wish Cena would have sold more at the end, rather than hulk up, but yeah, another great one from these guys.
