sek69 Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 It's a thing that's happening. The Viking Raiders vs Ryder/Hawkins was added as a pre show match that should allay fears that D-Bry would end up there. Quote
cactus Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 I'll be watching this live as I have nothing else to do. Looks like a solid yet uninspired card. Being nearly a month out of the loop with WWE programming, I have no idea why Drew Gulak and Daniel Bryan having a PPV match, but I know it's going to rule. Quote
KawadaSmile Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 Women's Chamber is main eventing Is that a sign? Quote
C.S. Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 This show looks so dire, but we're watching because what else is there to do? (Except obsessively worry about Coronavirus.) Quote
hammerva Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 It is a sign that the tag team title match isn't that important that it deserves to be a main event. Especially since nobody from the main matches is on this PPV Speaking of tag title elimination chamber, that Miz/Morrison promo on the pre show was straight up 80's coked up wrestlers. Not sure if they have been doing that or not but pretty funny Quote
C.S. Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 Hot take: R-Truth should have gotten a run with the World Title. Quote

Basically, for the past few weeks, Drew Gulak claims he knows all of Daniel Bryan's weaknesses and tried to teach them to a couple of guys like Heath Slater and Curtis Axel. Bryan challenged Gulak to a match last Friday so Gulak can prove that he can beat Bryan. Quote
hammerva Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 Show is starting with Bryan vs Gulak. If Styles vs Black was the next match I could go to bed early It is amazing that Sami Zayn is now being treated in the role of "former wrestler who now manages and stinks in the ring" guy. He was so incredible 2 or 3 years ago now you would think he is Johnny Valiant or Mr Fuji out there Quote
C.S. Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 I hope Sami Zayn wins the title tonight, even if he loses it right back at WM. This stupid 3-on-1 dogshit is excuse enough to run with Sami for a little bit. Quote
TheDuke Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 R-truth makes a good point. Why are they previewing Wrestlemania matches during the Elimination Chamber pre-show? I don't blame him for being confused. Quote
C.S. Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 Seeing Cena vs. Fiend previewed exposes that it doesn't feel special at all. If I wasn't following the product, I'd have no problem believing it was one of tonight's b-level PPV matches. Quote

Cena's been out of the picture so long any match he's in feels like a big deal. I doubt it's going to do anything to help The Fiend at this point though. Quote
hammerva Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 seriously I have never seen a PPV pre show with so many RAW and Smackdown recaps Quote

hammerva Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 Just now, KawadaSmile said: Wasn't he a really fucking good heel in 2011 or so? He was a good heel in hindsight but when he was in the main event of Capitol Punishment against Cena the crowd didn't really care. When him and Miz was stuck in the feud with Punk/Triple H/Kevin Nash they were a huge afterthought Quote

When him and Miz was stuck in the feud with Punk/Triple H/Kevin Nash they were a huge afterthought Because WWE never presented them as credible threats or made anyone believe they could win big matches against "the real stars." Pretty much the same problem we're seeing tenfold now. Quote
cactus Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 That German made me cringe. Can't tell if Bryan is legit hurt or not. Quote
hammerva Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 . OH SHIT BRYAN IS DEAD it makes it worse that it really looked like Bryan got a stinger on the Saito Suplex. I am guessing it was great selling but man Quote
Jmare007 Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 Fucking awesome match as expected. Funny as fuck how the crowd had no idea how to react to a match like this Gulak should've won but that was as strong as he could've looked in defeat. Quote
cactus Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 Incredible opener. Super physical and simple yet effective storytelling. Hope we can see Gulak get more chances to showcase his talents. Quote
