Seth and HHH was a good fight its unfortunate seth got injured and this match was about a year too late, they did a good job of making me re interested and despite all of yall complaining triple h did the job like I knew he would. I dont know why yall thought he wouldnt. 4 out 5

Can't recall anybody thinking HHH was going to win. Everybody has noted that he has jobbed to the young guys at Mania for a while

It didnt seem like it with all the HHH shovel jokes that go around on here on a regular.. All the talk of him wasting a spot and all that.. If you arent one of them than good but I saw it too much

Well that's a different topic. i think most people were already :russell: at the thought of HHH/Rollins in a match where the outcome was already known 7-8 months ago, then when Seth got injured it got worse.

Unfortunately the match itself didn't do them any favors. I think the consensus is that last night took a dive starting with that match. The crowd died once they got to the 10 minute mark and they still did another 15.

I mean it was a match that could only be good cause of the story and since the story got put on hold it it wasn't as good I'm just glad they showed some contuity and let Seth get his payoff

⌗thankyoutaker still trending number 2 worldwide all day and night

I told people a few months ago when it comes to famous wrestlers who were recognisable dont underestimate how known and loved Taker was all over the world. There's people in Africa, India and the Middle East who know of him
Local talk radio talked about Taker twice this hour. Obviously regarding retirement. Surprised the hell outta me.

They also brought up the proposal. :heh:

I also think it's on WWE for watering down and neutering the product to the point where it's almost unwatchable if you're not a hardcore. There's not a lot of magic to the product anymore outside of what goes on when NXT is good. It's not like the Attitude Era was the be all end all either, the Ruthless Aggression Era was still very popular and you see that with Randy and Cena and Taker who turned into memes. And then, like you said, they don't capitalize and go all the way with and put guys who have magical potential in the best positions possible, Enzo and Cass and Bray should be huge faces of their brands but they're just being held back for some reason

I'm 100% sure that it's because they don't want someone to reach Austin or rock levels of over. Vince doesn't want anyone to become a legit crossover star because then they have leverage over him and he can't fukk with them however he wants. look at what he did to the nexus, Zack Ryder, CM punk, ziggler, Wyatt, rusev, Ambrose, cesaro, and bryan at the peak of their popularity. Look at the fact that AJ styles just jerked the curtain at wrestlemania against a non wrestler. The worst part is it's only going to get worse when Stephanie takes over.
