Whoa im suprised!!
What did double take rate Hogan vs Rock at 18? I mean crowd was heavy into that one
Match was fine + moment was great, but the actual match had a lot of stalling and was a bit contrived for spots but it was fine. These ratings dont mean anything since there are 9 stars3 stars
After watching the match back I'm mostly just on Cody vs Dustin. They smoke & mirrored () it by doing the same shyt Cody did at All In. Brandi got involved & Dustin got blood while they didn't do much, but the crowd was going to respond to whatever any of the Elite guys does bigger than anything else so their set either way.

After that nerd cac tried to compare the word "mark" to "******" i dont give a shyt about his opinion on anything.
I remember having a back and forth on here with someone who claimed that fans wouldn't fukk with this match
The standing ovation in the building and this say otherwise
I respect the fact that Cody knows he's not as over as Kenny or The Bucks so he's putting himself in spots where the fans can get emotionally invested to bring the vibes to the match. Did the same thing with Aldis at 'All In' going after the title his father won.
Both he and Dustin deserve it.
I felt like it was an awesome territory grudge match, with a finishing sequence adapted to the current times. I wouldn't say it had anything that would stand out from most of those awesome 80's matches (besides the last 5 minutes, of course), but the fact that they were able to pull it off in 2019 was really fukking impressive. I wouldn't call what they did "smoke and mirrors", but it was certainly more welcome than your typical 2019 brawl/blood feud match. The match felt so different than anything we see nowadays that it's understandable that it gets people more hyped than usual.
Also, adding blood to a match can be as much of a plus to it than a hot crowd too, imo. Specially when it goes out of hand like this time and it's treated in an way that it feels special. Cody's blade job at All In was so bad I'm still convinced he didn't even blade and used Rock's fake blood trick
