January Wrasslin' |OT| The Assassination of Daniel Bryan by the Coward Vince McMahon
- Thread starter Aiii
- Start date
Yep. Exactly how I feel about it. Glad Daniel Wyatt is over because WWE did a terrible fucking job with it. A lot of wasted potential they had with that storyline. Glad we have old DB back. That slowly increasing YES chant that the entire arena was in on was one of the greatest crowd moments in WWE history. Now give that motherfucker the belt you morons.

Not sure on the chronology here, but Vader emphatically kicked out of the Hogan legdrop in their match at SuperBrawl V. I think this was after the Vaderbomb no sell, so maybe a little revenge?

Yeah, it was a fun angle, but I felt like it was too soon. Like someone in the back saw the crowd reactions and thought "this will never work, we need to separate Bryan and the Wyatt Family ASAP, while he still has a fan base".
Which was a very smart call honestly, though I think it has more to do with them wanting him as a hot babyface when he faces Taker
It certainly felt like it was prematurely ended. Maybe due to poor reception like you said. It was getting no reactions, and crowds just kept with with normal Daniel Bryan chants.
If that's actually true, it's no one's fault but their own. Daniel Wyatt COULD have been really intense. Instead what we go was more akin to a wet fart. Thank fucking god they cut the chord and gave DB a nice push to get going again.
Bryan vs Taker feels like one of those wrestling fan's dream matches that you feel like could never happen till it finally does....and I won't believe it's happening till it's happening.

I marked at the end of Raw when Bryan beat up Bray guys...I'm not a proud man today..
The right call, this angle was never going to work in the first place, so they had to end it.
Esp. with the YES-chants getting more mainstream exposure right after they did the turn.
It's the hair.
I actually prefer Rollins over Reigns by a good margin. But it's definitely Roman's time for a singles push out of the three.
Probably lttp, but Lol @ Cena wearing 49ers apparel, swerving Boston and the Pats!

Sandman, Chuck Taylor's theme is Will Travel by Tim Barry.
I think they wanted a longer tail with Bryan, yeah, but I think they'll just go with he was messing with Bray, rather than being brainwashed or anything. Make people forget about everything but the slow YES

I'm assuming you have satellite. I had to switch from DirecTV to TWC last year, and lost my 5 p.m. West Coast time Raw.
Thanks.
You are not excited by Orton vs. Cena in a REGULAR WRESTLING MATCH to close off the feud?
I am shocked.
I just think it's funny that they try to do this just to make anyone care about this damn match. If that closes out the Rumble I might just quit watching earlier. That's how uninteresting it is.

We'll know who wins based on if its closing the show or not. If Orton wins expect it to be the third to last match. If Cena wins expect it to close the show duh.
But it's not a regular wrestling match. There must be a winner....you can only win by pinfall and submission. Remember the title tournament from a while back that Mysterio won only to have Cena take the belt later that night? That whole tournament was done in that style and the matches were better for it. Wrestlers had to win and couldn't use cheap tactics to get the victory. As a fan, you also knew that they had to book a winner.
Of course, that was at a time when we had more heels that used cheap tactics to get out of matches, so it was nice seeing that forced for a change.

And Yo, nothing was more bullshit than Mysterio winning and Cena IMMEDIATELY going "hay title shot dawg"
That's Cena's Moral Event Horizon for me. Like wtf

At least Hogan went to help that loser Bret since he couldn't get it done.
Cena would have let Bret get the title from him then take it.
Yeah, that took any good that tournament had done out of most fan's minds pretty much for good.
So it's a NO-DQ match?
But there's no run-ins according to Stephanie. So what exactly they would do if somebody runs in and lays one of them out so the other can get a pinfall I wouldn't know.
Sounds like a REGULAR WRESTLING MATCH to me.

Its just like Hogan vs Warrior!
Portia wins on promos and charisma. But Nicole is way smoother in the ring for sure.
Remind me why Portia Perez isn't signed and in NXT again? She seems like a natural fit on all levels.
Basically, it's a world title match, the way it should be. You can only win by pinfall or submission. There is no dq and no countout finish. I guess you could wrestle it like a no dq brawl or a regular match. The idea is that you have to beat your opponent. No championship advantage, you must win.
I wouldn't be shocked if that actually happens.

Would have made a lot more sense doing it at the Rumble

That was the biggest pop in YEARS. Vince panicking paid off for once.
He moves like an empty banana skin.
Really liked end of RAW, especially two weeks ago was wanting to get his hands on Bray 1 on 1 ... so it actually made sense, probably told the Usos the plan in order to trick GM of RAW into doing a cage match as well ... I still can't get over this angle making sense. Just to get Bray 1 on 1.

His concave chest really bothers me. I have no idea if thats a medical condition or whatever but its pretty gross.

But he also has no upper body mass, which you would think they'd love.
Didn't Cena like...refuse to shake Mysterio's hand or something after that?
Some people think it happened because of the yes chant during that sport event.

Still wondering when the last time Ambrose defended his US Title
Rumors are the US and IC Title Unification is scheduled for EC.
Well sounds like he will definitely defend soon as the current plan for
Elimination Chamber is Ambrose vs. Big E in a unification match
According to the internet October 28th.
Edit: Hope the unification thing is true. Having both of these titles is just dumb without a brand split.
