Braun walked away under his own power like a brave hero.

I hope Braun is shown backstage at Raw, stumbling around just like he was last night and still "bloodied" like he stumbled all the way to Houston.

The best moment last night was when he sort of childishly yelled "LEAVE ME ALONE!" as he was walking away from the paramedics.

It's getting kinda crazy how someone gets busted up every time Shesaro and the Hardys fight on PPV.

Except Extreme Rules, weirdly enough!

"Shesaro" sounds like one of those Rivals.com puns for football teams. Like "Cowgirls" or "Vi-queens".

Maybe this time WWE will turn Roma...

Nope, looks like they may try to justify this by saying Roman was right!

31% Yes, Reigns should have kept his cool after his loss.
69% No, Strowman would have done the same thing to Reigns if he had the chance.

it's loving Pathetic to knowingly put forth the pretense that braun stromund would "do" the car wreck in order to hurt someone rather than throw a vehicle onto them or swang them into the distance if altitude permits

down for a three count is different from being able to force someone into an ambulance and shut the door

like how a last man standing involves a 10 count. the idea is that it should be far beyond just hitting your finisher or rolling someone up.


i mean, in theory

Lol leading options much?
And even after making the second option an obvious cop-out not the exact opposite of the first (what does what Braun would have done have to do with it?), they STILL rig it.

Could we maybe just word it like:

Was it right for Roman Reigns to attack Braun after the loss?
Yes
No

So, and I doubt this would ever come up, but out of curiosity and all that, what happens if during an ironman match, the last fall is a count out? The rules typically state the title cannot change hands on a count out (as we saw in Alexa vs Sasha), but do those rules not apply in an ironmatch? These are the sort of things you and the random guy next to you laugh and talk about when you're forced to sit through 15 minutes of firefighters using the jaws of life on an ambulance.

For the record I assume it would count because ironman matches do not officially stipulate that a title cannot change hands on a count out but I kinda wanna hear Dave's thoughts on this.

I'm sure the answer is 'however they feel like doing it', but I was watching old episodes of Saturday Night's Main Event from the 80s, and they had a 2/3 falls match where the faces won the first fall by DQ, then the final fall by pin, but were not awarded the titles because one of the falls was a DQ, so it invalidated the whole thing.

But I really doubt they'd do the same thing now.
