cactus Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 We've reached the era of Triple H having the longest match on the card. Batista is still green and looks awkward a lot of the time. This was largely uninteresting until Trips gets colour. To his credit, he bleeds a gusher and sells it well. The finishing stretch saves this one from being one of the least exciting Wrestlemania main event, with the last five minutes featuring a lot of stuff that I like. Flair's interreference was tasteful and didn't feel excessive. Batista powering out of a Pedigree and countering with an Air Raid Siren caught me completely off guard. Triple H does the job to his mate and puts him over pretty well all things considered, but you can't help to think that this would be much better if they trimmed the fat and worked around Batista's limitations. ★★½ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohtani's jacket Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 Is it just me or do Motorhead sound pretty shit playing Triple H's theme? This isn't that bad. It's a typical slow, methodical Hunter bout. Does Batista appear limited? Sure, but that's because he was limited. If you can't plug and play him into a Hunter match then perhaps he wasn't ready for the push. To be honest, I can't really see the match being worked any differently at this point. It was pretty much what I would expect from a Triple H/Batista match except that it happened to headline WrestleMania. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chess Knight Posted March 30 Report Share Posted March 30 My brother and I used to replay Motorhead's performance on the DVD again and again just to make fun of it. IIRC Lemmy actually missed multiple words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
