Y’all are dumb this was great

it went on way too long and instead of going the obvious 'Roman takes things too far and attacks Sami' route to get them teamed up now KO is going to need to forget and forgive the multiple times Sami tried to kick his rear end THIS MONTH because suddenly he decided Roman was being a bully to the guy who spent most of their storylines trying to murder him.

That was a little long but great. That pop when Sami hit Roman was loving massive.

Crowd was eating everything up, and having Jey walk away was a good twist.

this is the literal worst way to do this, why does Sami care about KO, why did he just give Roman one little smack if he cares so much, why does Jey care about Sami this much

Because they're old friends, because of the law of dumb faces in wrestling, because it was established on a show earlier this week that Jey thinks of Sami like a brother for repeatedly saving the Bloodline

Also Jey was Roman's first feud at the start of the Bloodline story and basically got forced into joining Roman's side by violence, so him not having undying loyalty to Roman is consistent characterization

I think a lot you guys are missing the point that it's just in Sami's nature to always forgive Kevin for his past transgressions because he's eternally good at heart.

yea the better end is Roman snaps and super kicks Sami, Jey jumps in to protect him from Jimmy jumping on him, now they're on the outs with Sami realizing Kevin was right and having to ask for his help, now you've got the 'teams' set nice and easy.

Instead Sami randomly decides after a month of actively helping attack KO that Roman has gone too far and Jey just kinda...walks away?

Tonight only makes sense if Sami is going over, which we all know has a zero percent chance of happening, so there’s literally no reason not to have him lose his poo poo on everyone and stand tall.

okay will cop to forgetting Jey's history on it, yea having him be the one to turn is fine then

but I think we're reaching levels of 'face stupidity' previously never seen before if Sami can't bear to see the guy who tried to full on kill him get super kicked

THE LIAR
Roman is a genuinely godawful actor, and that all took way too long but neither of those things were enough to ruin the segment, which was pretty loving good and clearly resonated strongly with their audience.

What is enough to ruin the segment is that NOBODY IN IT IS CHALLENGING ROMAN AT WRESTLEMANIA

WHAT THE gently caress.

WHY IS THE DUDE WHO HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS STORY THE ONE GETTING THE TITLE SHOT?

I kind of am thinking they were going to go with Roman defending the title on two nights, maybe losing to Cody night one and beating Sami on night two although who knows.

E: by that I mean at Wrestlemania and thus splitting the world titles.

This.

This was the chance for the guy to have the huge moment that he is never going to get in this feud. So it’s a bit of a letdown.

Yeah that should be weird since Cody hasn't even said Roman's name since returning.

I'm fully expecting it to end up as a triple threat so Roman loses the belt(s? However it works at the moment) but Sami gets the pin on Cody. That way no one's happy! :v:
