even aside from the DUI thing, why would you book them to win, give them a really, really good finishing sequence that could have ended it, then have that be a fakeout and instead end it on a rollup

lol remember when rvd lost his title because weed

to be fair, the WWE title is demonstrably a real belt whereas the smackdown tag team titles cannot conclusively be proven to exist

Being entirely bad faith here but its too much of a lay up to ignore:

Joining such lumiaries as Ricochet, Robert Rude and No Way Jose.

no way jose got maybe the worst gimmick in the entire world over with the crowd, i will defend him to my death

This crowd remains weird. Random chants for Kofi, more silence. They were only really hot the whole match on the pre-show.

The rest of the show has been about slowly killing fan interest to the point that this world title match is basically 'hey that guy you like is getting murdered in slow motion for ten minutes,' so it's not like it doesn't make sense

man Kofimania was fun but that asswhooping was just.... there's no coming back. Kofi could go on a 100 win streak against the entire roster and I'll still flashback to this match and go "nope". He is doner than done.

I mean, there is no small amount of intention in that Kofimania only worked against Daniel Bryan, the other guy the WWE wasn't crazy about, and in the aftermath every time he's fought a Real Heavyweight like Lesnar or Lashley or Drew he's gotten wrecked.

The crowd interaction and subsequent couple minutes of wrestling was the first time they've felt believably angry and fired up in this whole feud and it was nice

I feel like the match keeps kind of revving into good territory, then getting awkward again, then finding a good pitch again, and it's kinda weird.

this is amazing, first big ppv back and the crowd has poo poo all over it

It's a great encapsulation of the WWE that when the show started the crowd was loving white hot and ready to have fun and cheer everything and by halfway through the entire thing turned sour

on one hand the power is impressive, on the other hand what an incredibly unnecessary setup for a suplex
