I saw the strategic leader of the WWE Universe praising this camera angle and it looks so funny. Just a bad idea for how to capture the action except for maybe the second of the hot tag.

Is this a Borash thing? He's probably set to be HHH's production guy going forward. Kind of funny thinking about how much of an impact that TNA had on the wrestling industry despite being a massive trainwreck most of the time

No there's some new guy they hired who I won't be bothered to remember the name of.

But enough with the funny claims that WWE is doing anything good, here is WWE doing what they do best.

I think it's fine but it shouldn't linger on that angle too long. Sting used to get a similar angle on the Stinger Splash and that owned.

it was a WCW camera angle in the 90's and I'm not even sure they innovated the turnbuckle cameraman

It's a good shot for someone diving into the corner. It's not a very good shot to linger on someone's shoulder taking up most of the frame.

great promo from rollins and cody. they were using new camera angles it worked well.

I have no delusions about being an extremely
low IQ individual, but I think the story has been good so far even going back to Cody’s return. Truth be told my mother used alcohol when she was pregnant with me so that might have something to do with it. I also never passed algebra and failed algebra 1 three times en route to dropping out of high school.
