DMJ Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 Just coming in to say that Cena vs. The Fiend is beneath Cena at this point. He's a bona fide star and The Fiend, as much as his fans hate to say it, is still Bray Wyatt from 2018, 2017, 2016, etc. He had some buzz a few months ago, but giving him the title was a misstep and the Goldberg squash was the nail in the coffin. This is like if they brought The Rock back in 20whatever and decided to have him feud with Ziggler or Sheamus. Sure, Ziggler and Sheamus were somewhat over at that time as upper midcard heels, but they weren't Wrestlemania main event guys. Or, to bring it to 2020, if they brought The Rock back to feud with Seth Rollins. Rollins has a ton of accolades and titles and has main evented a ton of big PPVs...but does anyone consider him at the same level of The Rock? Or Cena? Or Lesnar (who he beat twice)? Quote
Blehschmidt Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 That was a fun match, but FUCCCCK, I don't want to see him taking those kind of bumps. Quote
hammerva Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 You would think that would make a star in Gulak after the match. But chances we won't see him for another 4 - 6 months except getting the shit beat out of him by a Braun Quote

I am guessing it was great selling but man That was clearly a work, Cole even had a complete line of dialogue for that that close up of Bryan's hand The german suplex was a scary botch though. I think Bryan wanted to do a flip and land on his feet. At least he didn't land on his neck (both shoulders were square on the mat) but a bad bounce and that's another concussion for him. Quote
KB8 Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 That was a pretty awesome little match. Would be completely fine with them running it again at Wrestlemania. Ultimate Ironman Match! But twenty minutes rather than thirty! Quote

Unfortunately, if there's something there with him, WWE sure as hell won't exploit it. It's depressing to think someone can tear the house down like this and it won't matter by the next night (Kofi has expressed similar sentiments in the past). Business as usual for WWE though. Quote
hammerva Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 This may be offensive but has Andrade been in a feud in the last 8 months not involving a Mexican. All I remember is matches against Sin Cara, Rey Mysterio, and Humberto Carrillo. Granted they are really good matches and I ASSUME that we finally get a blow off feud with Mysterio but seriously let's expand his stock a little. Even doing the Aliestar Black feud again would be good Quote
C.S. Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 That match never quite came together for me. Humberto really isn't very interesting to watch. Quote
cactus Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 Yeah, that match was okay but suffered having to follow Bryan/Gulak. This Andrade/Humberto program had no business going on as long as it did. Quote
hammerva Posted March 8, 2020 Report Posted March 8, 2020 I do find it funny that Heavy Machinery has to get into the pod sideways in order to fit. As a fat guy I can relate And that was not the start you want to see from Lucha House Party. No idea what Metallik was doing there. And then LInce almost kills himself trying to grab the cage Great recovery though Quote
hammerva Posted March 9, 2020 Report Posted March 9, 2020 By the way since the Revival is a Smackdown team and not in this match, should we assume that their WWE career is over? Or is one of them hurt? I know it is massive overkill in the Hell in a Cell match but surprised that we haven't seen a spot where the chair link cage breaks HOLY SHIT LINCE DORADO. I think Kalisto tried doing that 2 or 3 years ago and failed miserably. AND THEY LOSE IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE SPOT Quote
hammerva Posted March 9, 2020 Report Posted March 9, 2020 Well there it was. Although didn't think they would go through the fucking pod Quote

So yeah....I don't think we'll see them ever again on WWE TV unless a miracle happens. Quote
WingedEagle Posted March 9, 2020 Report Posted March 9, 2020 When did AJ Styles become the Guerrillas of Destiny? This match isn't bad but if you ed to step away, this is clearly the time. I thought there was a great chance the show would end by 10 given the lineup. While that won't happen it should certainly end well before 11, and thus far has overdelivered. Quote
cactus Posted March 9, 2020 Report Posted March 9, 2020 The Tag Chamber had it's moments, but went on way too long. Black/Styles was fun. The crowd came alive when Taker showed up. He might be washed up, but that was a cool moment. Quote
hammerva Posted March 9, 2020 Report Posted March 9, 2020 It would be kind of cool if Taker's last thing be some kind of mentor to Aliestar Black or do a "pass the torch" thing . But I doubt that happens Quote
EricR Posted March 9, 2020 Report Posted March 9, 2020 Started my live blog a little late, but some of that is because I actually went back and watched Gulak/Bryan again immediately after it aired. Gulak has been one of my favorites for a long time now, and I can't think of a match of his I've loved more. https://segundacaida.blogspot.com/2020/03/wwe-elimination-chamber-close-to-live.html Quote
C.S. Posted March 9, 2020 Report Posted March 9, 2020 I kinda hope the Mania match is Taker and Black vs. OC. Preferably Taker and Black will have a third partner of their own. Quote
hammerva Posted March 9, 2020 Report Posted March 9, 2020 I haven't watched a lot of RAW but man Rollins and Murphy are a damn good team. I assume WM is going to be Rollins vs Owens which sucks for Murphy So is this a 4 hour show? Quote
C.S. Posted March 9, 2020 Report Posted March 9, 2020 3 hours ago, C.S. said: 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. YES!!! Quote
hammerva Posted March 9, 2020 Report Posted March 9, 2020 Sami Zayn winning the IC title would have felt more special years ago to me. Now it feels weird But it was the right call. Quote
SirEdger Posted March 9, 2020 Report Posted March 9, 2020 I'll take that over any push given to King Corbin. Sami has legit good heel heat and his run as IC Champion will be fun, no matter how long it lasts. Quote
hammerva Posted March 9, 2020 Report Posted March 9, 2020 Natalya and Sara Logan are going to fight to be the most awkward in this match. Liv Morgan is the one I am really interested in. This is her make or break moment. Quote
