Funny thing is this Big Show/ADR feud been better than any feud the Rock been in since he's been back.

the lead up to Punk/Rock was good but IDK if any match Show/ADR put on will be better than the Survivor Series tag

I was at the SS tag, thought the match thoroughly sucked.

Cena getting beat down for 20 minutes and then a hot tag for Rock to do 3 moves/

Awful.

LMS match @ RR w/ ADR & Show > SS Tag Rock/Cena vs. Miz/Truth

Tough crowd man, tough crowd. The crisp arm drags and magistral cradle after a 10 year layoff to start off the match before he tagged in Cena was better than the LMS by itself to me. But the recycled Cena/Batista duct tape end took a lot away from the LMS imo

Holy shyt, a pro wrestler can hit an arm drag and an inside cradle?

The ending of LMS was recycled, but the match was great entertainment from top to bottom, not tag match 101 paint by numbers.

 

[Bob Loblaw]

A big guy like Rock can do three deep arm drags and then catch a dude in a cradle effortlessly after a 10 year layoff when they're underestimating him, it was fukkign great. A good tag match is great in any era but I'm not a big fan of PG LMS matches cuz they're usually pieces of shyt, add in a recycled ending, I didn't like it but I could see how others would with weapons and all that other shyt. Not to mention the one they had on SD was better

I give the WWE a lot of credit for how they have reshaped their identity and image in the last few years. Cutting out all the risque elements of their programming, and taking the welfare of their wrestlers seriously have paid huge dividends in how wrestling is received now. Wrestling has settled into to an acceptable mainstream product, rather than being considered low-rent, trailer trash garbage. When wrestling is covered by other outlets, you dont hear the sneering dismissal of it like in years previous. The feedback and interaction from society wasnt near as positive as it is now, despite the fact that wrestling was far more popular during the Monday night wars. Dont hold your breath waiting for 'attitude' to ever come back.

Shame that it took the Benoit tragedy, and countless deaths for this to happen, but better late than never I suppose.

Mizzark debuting at #4 ? Ain't mad at that one bit

That's what happens when someone gets their ass kicked. That's also what happens when someone gets their wig split.

A great TV match that would of never been seen by such viewers had a certain champ's return not brought back this many eyes. See the "big picture", children. See the big picture....
