Jerusalem posted:This was utterly baffling. Not that Nakamura won, but that they did this on the pre-show. What match would you have had instead? The show is stacked. Also, Balor is possibly turning.

Jerusalem posted:Another thing that makes the belts look utterly unimportant is shoving their match into the corner of the screen and playing an ad for the show we're already watching. So you don't have an answer. In theory, I agree about belts not being on the preshow but just looking at actual card the matches you could switch in other circumstances have a stip, a title match or are more important to Summerslam (Owens vs Ziggler).

Le Saboteur posted:I think the WWE has too many titles right now not to have title matches on the pre show. Its either that or don't have some titles defended on some PPVs. ding ding ding But wait and see if this is the start of a brand new direction for Finn.

RealFoxy posted:Is this poo poo just feeling more boring because the mainstream WWE audience are just full of families and superfans who don't react to hardly anything except the top guy They are reacting to everything they are meant to react to. Uso/The Revival seems to be being worked like a first match in series.

Sanguinia posted:I don't think the match really exceeded expectations Rov, I was tuning out for pretty much all but the last 5-6 minutes. I AGREE I expected worse. So it over delivered and I am not only person who said this. For example https://twitter.com/FightfulWrestle/status/1150570422351663105 I wish some people here would stop pretending my opinions are unique to me or I am doing a bit.

Sanguinia posted:For what it's worth I always respect your opinions as being earnest even though I frequently disagree with them and sometimes think you broadcast them a bit extra-loudly because you seem to have a contrarian streak. Saying a crowd reacted for the finish or for the Undertaker isn't contrarianism though. Yet some posters are denying two observable things.

Erebus posted:You can find someone on Twitter who agrees with any possible opinion. It does not mean anything, and no one is saying that you literally are the only person on earth to think a thing so your attempts at "evidence" to the contrary are entirely unnecessary. True but I am fairly sure that most reviews will likely agree with me about the finish. Nothing I've said in this thread has been out there at all. Ultimately I prefer to discuss the show and not me. Can we knock off the needless combativeness? Jerusalem posted:rovert. Stop. Please. I am just expressing my actual thoughts on the show and a lot of which you've agreed with me on.

It has still been a good show and probably the best WWE PPV of the year. Ricochet was another betting favourite that lost.
