I like the idea of it, I like the idea of Ambrose v. Bray, I like the idea of a ghost hologram, I hate the timing. Let Ambrose get over beating Rollins and let the crowd get their pop for him before he moves on to his next program you stupid, stupid assholes. Could've done this tomorrow.

I'm just disappointed. Everything was pretty great, and I really wanted the awesome Ambrose/Rollins match to actually have a finish, but instead spooky ghost happened. Still enjoyed a majority of the show, though.

The ending of Moby Dick was that nobody won, Ahab died like an idiot and was stupid for hunting the whale.

SamuraiFoochs posted:

The part that pisses me off is, if they were really wanting to push Wyatt, OR Ambrose for that matter, I wouldn't care. But it's so loving obvious they did this so Dean wouldn't lose without massive shenanigans (admittedly the smartest part about it) and could get put into a feud he can win to stay over, Rollins gets fed to loving Orton instead, and all is well in Rapadoo Land.

Orton is at least an established star who can deliver a great match when he's motivated. But Wyatt has zero heat left after his meaningless feuds and will only drag Ambrose down.

We come spinning out of nothingness, scattering stars like dust.



There wasn't a belt on the line, I'm not sure why you guys are so obsessed with Dean pinning Seth. He got what he wanted, he beat the poo poo out of him for like 30 minutes and was about do a heel move until interrupted. He won, there wasn't anywhere else to go with it and Dean didn't have much to do after this. This way, he wins, Bray gets some heat on him, and Dean has motivation to hate Bray. I think their feud could elevate them both if done right.

Really the impressive thing was that Ziggler took that crazy superplex on what must have been a ring worked up for that hologram spot.

the whale won. ahab is killed by his own hubris. it is a story. it has a narrative arc. it is storytelling.

the ending of this match is "and then bray wyatt showed up and it was over"

Question is, how the hell is this even supposed to end the feud?

What motivation does Dean have to not keep trying to murder Seth? Is he expected to just be too busy trying to murder Bray as well?

I have no problem with an Ambrose/Wyatt feud. In fact, I look forward to the promos alone. But that finish killed the match. The whole point of the cell was that Rollins finally gets his comeuppance. That finish did no favors for anyone.

At least Dean is crazy over. Hopefully he'll stay that way but with the idiots booking now, who knows?
