Wtf was the point of that stupid stipulation.

So that Refs can't be there for Punk's finishers but be there for Rock's finishers

 

[Kacho]

Meh. Expected, but I wanted something better.

 

[a secret-boss]

Well it is pretty obvious win

 

[RellyRell28]

ROCKY WINS

ROCKY WINS

ROCKY WINS

Hell fuckin yeah. It's a shame we actually have to watch him lose to Cena though. Sucks

 

[Ithil]

Well, that's entirely unsurprising, but Punk had Rock legit beat in the match. That's putting Punk over as best they can with a loss.

 

[somedevil]

This finish screams 3 way to me for some reason more than Undertaker coming up.

 

[UberTag]

So, Brock vs Punk...meh.

That would actually be better than Punk vs. Immobile Taker.
He just got through carrying Gassed Dwayne.

 

[LycanXIII]

Ref pays no mind to the title lying right next to a downed Punk.

I guess it only matters if it's convenient to the story.

[Pavaloo]

Well, that's entirely unsurprising, but Punk had Rock legit beat in the match. That's putting Punk over as best they can with a loss.

Pretty much. Made punk look great.

 

[dream]

I hope Punk whispered "thank you" during the pin. Dwayne deserves a handshake for letting Punk look so good tonight.

 

[Officerrob]

Meh. Expected, but I wanted something better.

Outside of a three minute stretch, that match was awful

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

For a brief moment, I actually thought Punk was going to retain. Match was alright I guess.

 

[LoserMakesGood]

Terrible booking but still Punk looked like the biggest bad ass on the show

 

[ghostmind]

Now Punk can say he was screwed again. Three-way for Wrestlemania?

 

[gurudyne]

Ref's leg hurts too much to count for Punk, crawls out of ring.

Rock hits RB, ref stands up and crawls back into ring to count.

They didn't think that one through.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

This finish screams 3 way to me for some reason more than Undertaker coming up.

It is going to be just Rock vs Cena

Nothing else on the card will really matter to Vince

 

[amodelmerol]

It was an old school finish, not bad


And now Twice in a Lifetime is 1000% official

 

[slightconfuse]

THey had the Promo ready to go.

 

[Ithil]

Twice in a Lifetime

 

[Ilive1up]

wait. 3 years in a row rock vs cena. right?

 

[HarryDemeanor]

TWICE IN A LIFETIME

 

[daemissary]

Terrible booking but still Punk looked like the biggest bad ass on the show

You're forgetting about the wig splitter.

 

[Anth0ny]

TWICE IN A LIFETIME

 

[Keyser Soze]

 

[Dark Ninja]

Lol they had that graphic ready to go. Twice in a lifetime 3 way right guyz

 

[MetatronM]

I don't understand the booking for this match with the stipulation.

And WTF are they doing with Punk going into Mania? Brock doesn't make sense, and I don't think Taker is coming back at this point.

TWICE IN A LIFETIME

 

[cartoon_soldier]

wait. 3 years in a row rock vs cena. right?

Yup.

Well, 1st time it was actually Miz vs Cena, but Miz didn't really matter at all to that build up and match.

 

[tj hazuki]

Ughhhh. Cena/The Rock.

 

[McNei1y]

ONCE IN A LIFETIME II HELLS YEAH

 

[bangai-o]

had no idea there is a ppv happening. i just popped in to read what casual discussion is going on.

 

[MoosiferX]

So yeah, I don't necessarily feel good about spending money on that PPV. The Shield match was a nice surprise, though!

Can't say I'll be paying for "Twice in a Lifetime".

 

[slightconfuse]

cant wait for Gassed-Nosell 2

 

[Entropia]

Stupid stupid stupid

 

[worldrunover]

wait. 3 years in a row rock vs cena. right?

First time was cena vs miz... But essentially yes.

 

[Four_Chamber]

Twice in a lifetime!

I hope they don't make us watch those insufferable promos that chronicle the lives of Rock and Cena again. It was those dumb videos for a solid two weeks about how Rock grew up and what not.

All things considered, still a great PPV. The Shield match is one of the best matches I've seen in a LONG time.

 

[The Elite]

ONCE IN A LIFETIME II HELLS YEAH

I prefer Once in a Lifetime II over Twice in a Lifetime. It's more WWE.

 

[evil ways]

That would actually be better than Punk vs. Immobile Taker.
He just got through carrying Gassed Dwayne.

So who turns face? Punk?

 

[Raw64life]

 

[Professor Beef]

Dumb, stupid, ref-crazy ending, but Rock won so I'm happy.

Skipped the Shield match, but everything else was alright. Whatever out of 10 score for the PPV.

 

[KissVibes]

It's still once in the lifetime of one of John Cena's Make-a-Wish recipients, guys. It's not all bad!

 

[Ithil]

It was at least made very clear in that match that Punk is capable of beating the Rock, in their hierarchy, he got a 10 count after the GTS. The only way to save the WM main event is to have Punk in it, too. There is no story beyond Cena going "I didn't give a shit about this all year after April 2nd, but now I'M SUDDENLY DEVASTATED AND NEED REDEMPTION!", which will last for about half a promo.

 

[LoserMakesGood]

You're forgetting about the wig splitter.

You're right. I think I'll pay my air bill extra early this month.

 

[ghostmind]

The PPV was better than expected with the Chamber match being the highlight.


The last match was garbage though.

TWICE IN A LIFETIME

 

[redmetal86]

the second disc is contents from the future!

Rock Convert vs Cena Rap! Go!

 

[UberTag]

had no idea there is a ppv happening. i just popped in to read what casual discussion is going on.

You don't even need to watch the PPVs to hang out in here.
I didn't watch any wrestling tonight and I'm having a blast.

Most of the folks in Gaming Discussion don't actually play games and just troll people about their favorite systems.
This is pretty much the same thing as that.

 

[Nocturnowl]

There is no story beyond Cena going "I didn't give a shit about this all year after April 2nd, but now I'M SUDDENLY DEVASTATED AND NEED REDEMPTION!", which will last for about half a promo.

"Nobody will remember second place for a second time, that's why I can't lose!....again"

 

[Dave Meltzer]

Punk being added to the match would be great. But it's not gonna happen.
