i said this before, but the smart move is to open 3 doors and wait them out, and then beat up the other guy, open the last door, get through and trap him inside.

correct? i dont really get the point of the 60 second rule otherwise

It's "bamboo", which is also why it sounds like a chain-link fence when you drape a chain on it.

quick reminder that this match was originally intended as The Great Khali's gimmick match.

Imagine the Great Khali actually having to wrestle this match. Crawling through the little doors. Climbing the outer cage.

It would have to be steel reinforced otherwise most wrestlers could just bend the bamboo and escape.

Making a Jinder/Randy match where neither the live or tv audiences can see the match is actually a brilliant way of working around how badly both suck.

i want a feed of the crowd so i can see them increasingly file out of the building due to not being able to see

If Corbin cashes in during the match does he automatically win because he is outside of the prison?

So is the inner cage open at the top? I assumed if all four doors closed, you just had to climb it.

Jinder Mahal sucks

Randy Orton sucks unless used in very particular ways (or more accurately he is competent but boring as gently caress)

This match sucks

This crowd is more silent than any crowd I've ever heard
