Kurt Angle and HBK ruined Wrestlemania

[Kongo McMicheal]

Before I get crucified let me explain....

They had a dope ass match at WM 21 I have to admit that but they started the trend of whoring out finishers to the point that WM crowds don't even react to finishers anymore. They created a great dream match but now at every WM big match they follow that same formula and it's wack and kills all the drama.

Damn near every match someone was kicking out of someone else's finishing move. Cena and Rock spent damn near the last 10 mins exchanging finishers

It's been done well since that match though

It was done before that match
You're just gonna ignore Kane vs undertaker and rock vs Austin, macho man vs warrior

 

[Tommy Fits]

I wouldn't say they should be blamed, the problem is a lot of the talent just doesn't have the ability to pull it off and sell it. When you have guys that know what they're doing it works like HBK/Taker or Punk/Taker.

They reacted all night to near falls though and have been for years

thread mad confusing

If they werent going to turn Cena heel then that match was pointless, WWE clearly trolled the IWC teasing a turn while Cena was talking to Rock and while they were on the stage


cokeboy got us tonight

Don't agree with the thread, but if anything weren't the Rock/Austin responsible for that? They stayed doing their finishers and then doing each others finishers

It's been done well a couple of times but tonight everyone seemed to be following the same formula. The only match that wasn't totally flat on that tip was taker-punk

 

[Ill Lou Malnati]

It works when done in good taste but it's been overkill in recent years. Rock/Cena II is the most offending example of a damaging trend.
