The Cosby Mysteries posted:Props to her trying to stop a 6'4 NFL player from getting in the ring. Loved that. But let's be real here Mojo is still pretty green and considering the former winners of the AMBR Mojo is pretty steep drop off. On the other hand, when was the last time winning the AMBR meant anything for someones career?

Charles Gnarwin posted:HHH/Rollins was pretty good and told a nice story. There was a legit injury to work around so they couldn't just go balls to the wall. Outdoor arenas don't lend themselves to super hot crowds because the sound just dissipates. Lol yes let's just ignore how hot the crowd was for the hardy's.

Oh Snapple! posted:That phoenix splash for me. I actually don't hate Seth using the Pedigree even now, I just thought this match should've ended differently because symbolism. I wouldn't have expected a full Curb Stomp return, just like, a one off super finisher like Orton's punt, which got used at least once after it was deemed A Bad Thing.

The_Rob posted:Could have fooled me for how quiet it seemed. It wasn't though. Like I'm convinced some people seriously have selective hearing. It wasn't as hot as Brock/Goldberg or the Hardys, but it was very respectable heat, especially considering how late in the show it was. The main was boring and heatless, not HHH/Seth. It wasn't as good as it could've been but ffs Seth is still hurt and they clearly played it safe which again they should've.

The arena was loud with boos throughout Roman's victory but they cut all the crowd mics hard. I want the Orlando audience to just walk out or sit on their hands during the Roman segment tonight. No boos, no cheers, just indifference.

More generally, I'm glad they didn't try to shoehorn him into Wrestlemania in general. I figure he returns tonight and that was probably always the best option once he couldn't return in time for the Rumble.

Also several times I felt like JR was totally unenthused and off his game and I had to stop and remind myself that there's a pretty loving good reason for that.  Furthermore last night was good by virtue of it having SOMETHING that was the greatest ever. That loving set was the greatest Mania set of all time.

I disagree with everyone saying roman probably caught heat for not being able to lift the Undertaker. Sure, a pro wrestler probably would, but I bet Roman got a standing ovation and ten thousand dollars and was allowed to stay up past his bedtime, instead.

If Finn returns and isn't going to be a baby face tonight I at least hope he pretends to join newevolution but then instead kicks them all in the dick and rejoins his rightful place in the Balor Club

He should crawl through the smoke, then stand up and stay stood up. Also there is one thing positive I can say about Reigns/Taker. I loved the final Super Spear. That was really well done and if the match had been any good and/or had any heat would've been an AMAZING ending, just like the Jumping Tombstone Taker used to finish HBK. That was one mirror spot they did well in a vacuum.
