absolute garbage wrestlemania with a garbage ending only things that were the slightest bit good were Rousey, the crowd booing the metric system, and my 13 year old cross over fantasy booking coming to life Also Seth Rollins is hell on the mic, cant wait for his boring 20 minute promo tomorrow and the never gets old art of the chickenshit heel

This is probably a really dumb, stupid question, but are there any non-cable ways to watch the weekly shows? As far as I can tell, they aren't actually on the WWE Network, right? Hulu Plus has edited versions of the weekly shows. They're probably better to watch since they're 90 minutes instead of three loving hours but you do miss a few things here and there.

Fiveace Attorney posted:Bad is pushing it. The only thing really bad was the filler and most of the Sting HHH nonsense. At the same time not a lot of it was super amazing. So it was good, above average. Not as good as last year I attended last year so I'll admit that I'm biased as hell, but most of the undercard was just paint-by-numbers obvious. Then HHH beat Sting and I soured pretty hard on everything that followed. Undertaker's entrance has been a draw in and of itself for years but tonight it was just... an entrance prefaced by a gong. With some smoke. Compared to last year alone it was a huge downgrade. But hell yes Seth Rollins. HELL. YEAH!

I think most of us can definitely agree that the show was better than average and nowhere near as bad as it could have been at the very least

The WM was good enough that you can pick out the bad things. Bog How going over Triple H going over, Sting shaking his hand like a loser The 25 minute RAW promo Everything else was good to really really good

Why did the NWO help sting, surely they could have at least come out to the wolfpack music? I really just want them to come out to the wolfpack music.

wrestling is really great when it works and there's no reason that builds should be this bad with the talent they have even if somehow each year they're able to pull things out of their rear end at the last moment

I'm probably just echoing what many have said but there a few thousand unread replies that I can't read because I have to go to bed soon. So... Main event was loving amazing. It's bittersweet, because Brock Lesnar as champion was a special thing and it sucks that it ended rather quickly, but they booked a downright perfect match. The idea going into this, I would assume, is that you wanted everybody to come out looking good. Reigns: Took an absolute rear end kicking, including 10 suplexes and 3 F5's and it still didn't put him away. Almost had Brock beat at the end. Brock: Not that he needed to be booked strong but he took like 12 finishers and never even got pinned. Rollins: New champ. Speaks for itself. I hate Reigns less after that match, so the WWE did something right. Everybody loves to bitch about the booking after every PPV, but you have to give them credit when it's due. Outside of the Taker match, the booking was drat near perfect. They managed to make HHH/Sting, a match I had zero expectations for, and turned it into 20 minutes of entertainment. Yes, a clusterfuck, but entertainment. Awesome Mania.

If they do split up Rusev/Lana, it should be Rusev going face. Dude could be tremendous at that.

I think WWE isn't for me. I thought it was stupid how many people disappeared during the ladder match. Randy Orton does nothing for me (great RKO, but that's not enough) Sting match was stupid overbooked bullshit, with the respect afterwards being amazingly stupid (as someone here pointed out, why would you respect someone who brought in their friends to beat you, and only won after hitting you with a sledgehammer? This is precisely the kind of behaviour that you've opposed him for). Seeing old dudes get injured and move poorly didn't excite me, especially when their actual friendships and relationships are known - nobody thinks Hall, Nash and Hogan like Sting more than HHH. AJ and Paige was just kind of boring, and with so little stakes - I'd have preffered a 4 way, Nikki bella cannot pin Brie. Cena Rusev was okay (I loved the overblown Russian entrance), but man that wet ending. That eternal segment with rock and rousey went horrificallyl ong, especially for the payoff of Rousey kind of holding Stephanie's arm. Why not just have her legit take steph down and make her tap out? It's not hard for her. Undertaker - Wyatt was okay, but not amazing. And then the main.... Brock's a beast, he's compelling, he's amazing, he's everything you want wrestling to be. Roman is a wet blanket. But holy poo poo, I was actually getting into the story of Roman conquering the beast, suddenly Seth there for bullshit. I mean, I guess it makes Roman looks strong, and Seth smart, but not in a way that will really get either of them over. It's the main event of Wrestlemania, IMO bullshit ends here, you win or lose on your own merits.

Fauxhawk Express posted:That show really was great. It's time for HHH to be more of a puppet-master type heel. It's ok if he delivers once in a while a Pedigree or does a short brawl in the ring, but these old guy reunions where he makes sure that all his old buddies get a Wrestlemania paycheck are getting a bit silly (although I'm happy for Hall). Rock vs Trips at Summer Slam ? No, please no.

I don't know who Rousey is, but I'm guess she was the lady in the interminable Rock HHH promo thing. Is she going to wrestle? Should I ever care about this person.
