Opinions man, how do they work? So because I think its cheesy when the referee stops himself from calling the match, with the camera zooming in on his pained face while the commentary team talks about how its useless asking John to tap out, that makes me a Cena hater?

Ambrose also teared up after delivering the curb stomp. Ambrose is damn good.

Do you think he would fight at this size?
Sounds like something the people that called him fat when he came back or that he has chicken legs would say
That isn't interesting, it's what's actually GOING TO HAPPEN. Him cashing in at this point would be a complete waste of his time. It was funny even thinking he had a chance against Cena. But after the performance he put on tonight of being the best damn mop a floor could ever meet, his chances of winning against Brooooooooock Lesssssssssnarrrrrrr are even more miniscule.
He might as well burn the papers in the briefcase in the center of the ring on RAW, and do his best Jimi Hendrix impersonation while he's at it.
EDIT: Honestly, Lesnar should just retire on RAW, taunt all of the Cena fans, then leave the WWE with the "last laugh" win over Cena. I honestly don't want to see him face Cena again, or anybody else, for that matter. His complete global saturation (of sweat) over John Cena at SS was so gratifying, that seeing him do less against anybody else would only tarnish his victory. Seriously, go out on the greatest high note there ever was, Brock. Let the up and comers shine now that they don't have to be afraid of Cena anymore.
Exactly my point!
The expression on Ambrose's face was that of a man who was hurt on a deep emotional level to do that to someone he still genuinely cared about and viewed as family. It's easy enough to pick up on, but THESE ARE THE MOMENTS the commentary team should be getting over. These are the things you want people to remember and want to relive on your fucking $9.99 network. Nah, better tell the viewer about how LUMBERJACK MATCH is trending worldwide. Because that's exactly what you should do. Get the viewer to focus away from the product you're trying to sell.
Yup.
When wrestling & the men and women involved are on top of their game, I think it's the best entertainment you can get. But holy fuck does WWE drop the ball so hard on getting that over 90% of the time.

I wish we could watch matches with sound but no commentary. I think that would make me enjoy them 1000% more.

Your right. Before the match started my buddy was like Cena gonna get F'd up
I'd pay extra for that at this point.
At the very least offer a "No King" dialogue option!
Complete bs. All of those movies would have done good without him in wwe.
Another lol.

Goth Cena in reality feels closer than ever. Turn to the darkside John

Lesnar vs Reigns might be worse programming than Sheamus vs Del Rio or Batista vs Orton. One of the two might be a big draw but for all the sports entertainment talk there isn't many people left to talk around, is there? Bryan wasn't exactly a mouthpiece, either.
Yea Dwayne is bigger than the WWE now.
Shit, right now my windows phone after i typed "Dwayne" gave me the option to place "Johnson" right after.
Dudes a bonafide star, and WWE is just a well paying hobby for him.

There is only 1 former Paul Heyman guy they should match up with Lesnar.
And no I don't mean Cesaro.

But they did that last year.
And it was the best match of said year.
I think he's talking about Ryback.
I don't mind King that much. It's the fucking bickering between Cole and JBL that never fucking ends and sometimes will go over a whole match.
cena needs to win the best of 3
That's how you know he is legit. How much money did he make last year? I swear he was everywhere

I want crowd and wrestling that's it. Commentary is shit.
The most well sourced numbers I could find say he is worth north of 130M dollars. That's more than triple the next richest wrestler ever (Stone Cold, who has a bunch of reality projects and the best residual merch deal WWE ever handed out).
He was the highest grossing actor in the world last year. He's got Fast 7 coming, and when that franchise ends, he's likely going to be part of the DC film universe. Even Hercules, for all the "bomb" talk, is going to wind up doubling it's production budget in WW gross.
He'll be back, though, because he wants to do something.

I still don't know based on what WWE thinks Reigns is the to-go character.
By the time Rock won the first WWF title at SS98 he had already cut two dozens memorable promos while he was in the midcard. Austin was more memorable before the title win than after. Hogan could cut promos, Cena was also able to.
Orton himself was decent entertainment though he was pushed as a 3rd gen superstar.
Reigns falls right in between, where do they find this long-term lasting appeal? He doesn't look anywhere near as believable as Goldberg, he doesn't have the entertaining workrate of Rock, near to no mic skills.
Let alone the fact, babyface champions nowadays seriously risk immediate burnout (maybe that is the reason they're keeping Bryan away)-
He may be not as pleasant to the fangirls as Reigns, but a tweener (?) champion like Ambrose could work just right.

Between Brock's domination & Steph's Dominatrix outfit is that SummerSlam was pretty good.
Waiting for that godly Heyman promo tommorow!
Waiting for that godly Heyman promo tommorow!
I found a "way" to watch all the 1998 and newer RAW episodes since the WWE Network I subscribed to wasn't willing. And I have to say that my friends and I aren't able to watch today's product since. We'd rather watch a 1998 RAW episode than current PPV matches. The unpredictability. The pandemonium. The constant "distract the official so we can fuck this guy up". Everyone saved face because every match involved shenanigans. Today's product is too full of predictable outcomes and predictable "distractions" that involve someone's music or words causing one of those "surprise 3 count" finishes. Then the PPV is always "2 equal opponents going at it for good old fashioned "wrasslin' " while the entertainment factor that existed 16 years ago is completely gone.
The mic skills of people like Stone Cold or Shawn Michaels or The Rock or Vince McMahon or Triple H and the brilliant commentary by JR are replaced by mediocrity while the writing was equally replaced by the same.
It's like WWE has its own "BC". Before Cena and After Cena.

Did you guys notice that Michael Cole actually mentioned Hardcore Holly's name during Lesnar match? What are the odds?

I'd argue the product started going down in terms of personalities, both quality and quantity, from 2002 onwards. Roster took a dive in wrestling quality from 2005 onwards instead.

I like the idea, but they wouldn't sell it right. That needs an ECW/One Night Stand type of environment.

Viva la Summer of BROCK LESNAR :-D
Really happy that Cena lost!
Really happy that Cena lost!
I agree, I'm tired of:
-Cole giggling
-Lawler's fake gut laugh
-Cole saying he talked to somebody in the back and they said "Listen"
-Not focusing on the match (I missed that awesome Ambrose thing because of them)
-Using "serious voice" at the worst time
-TWERKIN MAGGLE
And all their other repetitive phrases.
The one thing I would say I'm sick of hearing most would be the "something something WWE NETWORK"
Surprisingly I'm okay with this idea. Randy is one of those guys who rises to the occasion a lot. Give him a quality opponent and he can pull incredible spots no one even thinks about.
I want him to keep destroying people until we can get an epic David v Goliath showdown with him and D Bry at Mania.

Someone should actually stop JBL and tell him right in the face a pro-heel color commentator must sound like a joke, like a biased goof you don't take seriously. He comes out as obnoxious period.

Stephanie's ring gear looks like HHH went into Chyna's old ring gear and had pants added to it.
Highlight of the night for me personally.
They did that?
That's easily the funniest moment in the WWE outside of the attitude era.
He's there to broadcast Vince's lines. I'd rather hear Booker T out there. Be a heel if it matters so much.
