The only hero left for man is weed.

Someone start making these threads regularly again next week please.

PPV STUFF!!!
-El Torito vs Hornswoggle WeeLC match, Torito wins. Best match of the night.
-Cesaro beats RVD and Jack Swagger in a three way.
-Rusev vs Truth and Xavier woods handicap match, Rusev wins after destroying Xavier outside the ring and then having a lovely singles match.
-BARRETT IS THE NEW IC CHAMPION.
-Shield beat Evolution in a goddamn awesome match, Batista takes the pin from Reigns.
-Bray vs Cena in a steel cage match. lovely match, Bray won when the lights went out and Little Johnny The Demon Child appeared. Bray hit his finisher on Cena and walked out of the cage.
-Paige won against that one diva.
-Bryan vs Kane, Bryan wins after putting Kane through what was technically a flaming table and then hitting him with The Knee.

RAW STUFF!!!
-20 man Battle Royal for Deans US title, Sheamus won.
-RVD vs Cesaro, RVD wins when Cesaro gets DQ'd for kicking too much rear end.
-Cody w/ Goldust vs Ryback w/ Axel. Goldust accidentally knocks Cody off the top rope via stupid bullshit, Ryback catches him for the shellshock and the win.
-More 3mb/Matadores shenanigans, the best feud in the WWE continues.
-Rusev killed Kofi.
-Bryan vs ADR, Bryan wins.
-Kane tries to attack Brie, Bryan hits him with a car which Kane no-sells, then Bryan drives off.
-Barrett vs Big E rematch, Barrett wins with the Bullhammer after poking Big E in the eye.

If Batista's complaint is about money, that's fair. He has the right to do what he wants.

If he's just complaining about jobbing to Bryan, then gently caress him.

Batista's got plenty of money.

Also I warned everyone of a lovely Kane feud and was told "Oh it's okay" a month ago on this very forum.

The beginning and end were good, but the crowd sucked (Punk chants from the beginning are unacceptable) and the terrible horror movie stuff just isn't working at all. I wish Bryan and Kane were just allowed to beat the poo poo out of each other with various objects in various places; that's actually fun to watch and doesn't require Brie (or Bryan, for that matter) to attempt to act.

That's because it was meant to be a holding pattern feud. He was not meant to go into Payback against him. Now you are indeed correct and it's poo poo.

This, basically. Funny, though, that he was going to walk when he was booked to lose to Bryan, but now he's totally OK with working another PPV despite the continued lack of clarity on PPV bonuses.

Also, gently caress Batista anyway because the only thing remotely entertaining or interesting about him is the hilariously awful clothes he wears.

Honestly, if Bryan got a new feud tonight, I'd have had no problem with it or how it played out. It's the round two - and the cheesy horror movie segments to build it - that's making it bad. Really, I don't mind wrestling being silly, but silly isn't good for the new world champion needing some legit defenses.

Which, again, brings us back to the "gently caress Batista" thing, though WWE really should've had a backup, or at least tossed someone else in there.

I loved Adam Rose in NXT so this isn't the first time I've seen him. I feel like for it to work for a Raw crowd his entourage needs to be bigger. The whole thing felt small because it looks so much grander in front of the NXT audience.

I don't know why they just didn't go back to Orton, with the exception that Orton is over played. At the very least you would get a good match out of it and Orton could claim he never got his rematch. And that he wasn't pinned for the title (even though Bryan's beaten him silly on numerous occasions)

Instead we're getting crappy horror unfolding on raw with Brie's laughable acting.

I would actually have LOVED it to be cheesy, I would have loved "Where too Brie, hahahahahahaha." But I can't even call it cheesy, it was just poo poo.

I'm no fan of his but I can easily see anyone in that position going 'uh gently caress you, let someone else lose to him I tapped at Mania. by the way I'd like to win a match one of these days too.'

I believe they want to preserve and protect Orton after the awful booking during his title run. I'm not saying I agree, I would take an Orton rematch 10 fold over this awful Kane poo poo. I just want it to be June 2nd. I'm going to that Raw and things will more than likely be reset there. As of now not excited for Payback one bit.

I always want to like Kane, 'cause I like his gimmick and his promos and his attire and his entrance and his signature moves, but then it's time for his angles or his matches and it always sucks.

When God invented Lycra, he was thinking about Divas matches.
The concept of a Payback PPV just seems like a terrible decision when it isn't Backlash. Backlash made sense since it came off the PPV that everyone saw, and it put an official end to the biggest feuds of the year. There was a place for it. But when you're rehashing the same matches from a B PPV in back to back months, it almost seems lazy and definitely not worth full price if you don't have the Network.

I'm really disappointed they aren't even referencing when he and Bryan were tag champs. I want this feud to end with Bryan suddenly grabbing Kane in a hug. Kane struggles for a moment then is like WHOA as it all comes back and he and Bryan become friends again.

Bryan can't stand hugging apparently, so that should be reversed as Kane hugging Bryan.
