Lol no Russo tier would be Chad Gable randomly moving Kevin and then putting Shane on Kevin's body.

The angle could be that Sami loves big Kev deep down and cares about his family etc and was trying to do the right thing by saving him or something idk

Good. Now just make him and Nakamura wrestle over and over again. Nothing will be as good as the first, but at least we'll have two guys who care.

They probably still used one. Last time the pad blew out the table, so they most likely tried harder to make sure it wouldn't be revealed like that and... oops.

Miching Mallecho posted:

Pad still looked massive enough, I was more worried about how he hit elbow first. I do remember the WM one being insanely huge though so yeah, probably should've gone with more.

Sami on talking smack, please please please.

Saving your friend despite him trying to end your career 6 times is the most Face you can be.

Haha, I'm fine with this, lets see them actually do something with Sami for a change. I was fine with Sami just not being willing to see KO die, but this is even better.

No I just mean I'm still super confused about the power bomb spot. Like did they plan for it not to break? If they did want it to break, were they still going to do the follow-up elbow spot too?

We buried this babyface until he was loving dead, so turning him heel is actually a good thing!!!! :downs:

SamuraiFoochs posted:

Turning the best babyface in the company heel for the sake of DA SWERVE!!!!! is loving stupid, man, and him being dead as a babyface isn't an excuse, it's just an indictment of their horrible loving writing.

I think they thought as far as fighting on the cage would look cool and teasing the panel breaking would be real tense. They then just had no idea how to work from there. I don't think it was ever meant to break.
