Thought DBry's matches with Bray and HHH were both better than the WM triple threat match, could be just me.

So I hooked up with this hipster girl who was wearing a Guns N' Roses shirt for strictly stylistic purposes, not because she like their music. She even had a hookah at her place. Anyways, in my post-coitial bliss infused with hash I came up with a great idea for a WWE tumblr that will change the landscape of WWE tumblrs as we know it.
The overrating of Shield/Wyatts needs to stop. It's getting to be a bit much. And the Payback match? Jesus. Why not just put Wyatt/Cena at Extreme Rules on there while you're at it.

They were. Triple H worked a damn ROH match, and it was great!

Isn't Dragon Gate this weekend?
I agree with that, still loved HHH's suplexes. But it's WWE, they probably rated the moment higher as well as the crazy spot rather than the match as a whole. I would probably have also put Paige/Emma at 10.
I'd probably change the Shield/Evolution match to the Extreme Rules one and move it down a few spots too.
#1 would probably be Cesaro/Zayn for me and Bryan/Wyatt needs to be up there too.

That list is rare bad form for the usually great Dot Com staff. They might be next on the budget cut list after that.

When a man is going carb-free, bbq is like the holy grail.
No doubt.

If I get my shit together I'll debut it this weekend.
Damn right. We were planning one when the country had a heatwave warning... Unfortunately, the warning didn't apply to here and it is pissing it down. Fuck life.

Trips vs Bryan was the best WWE match this year, as far as I'm concerned. I don't know about anyone else, but for me it's hard to compare singles matches to tag matches - I'll always rate singles matches higher, even if I still really enjoy tag wrestling.

Easily MOTY so far.

Besides being an outstanding match, Trips vs Bryan (and the triple threat) was the culmination of an unintentionally great story. None of those other matches have that going for them. Zayn/Cesaro was a great rivalry though.
man that match was good...felt like liu kang vs shao khan....literally.
Trips had a seance in a abandoned bingo hall with the spirit of czw, roh, and fmw within him for that match.
Dude became Terra Rizing.

I love how Brodie is still doing the exact same thing in WWE, just with more coked out hair

Shit, now I gotta re-watch Trips vs Bryan. Definitely one of the best matches of the year and one of WWE's best. Dat Charlotte vs Natalya tho...

WWE should put out a bottom 10 worst matches of the year so far too.

I am corny baby face so I must smile. Heels must scowl.
The work from the chickenwing into the tiger suplex was amazing. Easily HHH's best match in probably five or six years, maybe even longer. I think he may have felt he had something to prove, and it showed.
I like to think it was all a reaction to Punk bailing. Like "Leaving our planned angle? Well look at me, I'm in the opening match of WM, I'm wrestling a technical match and MOTN, I'm losing clean to an indie darling! Could have all been yours!"

Tumblr must've thought that you were too much of a hipster even by their standards, friend.
I wish American wrestling would go back to protecting some finishers. WWE and independent wrestling are both extremely guilty of it to try to make a 'big match' seem bigger than it is to get said cheap pop, but it's so overused now, and it makes everything feel so fake. Like Undertaker kicking out of the F-5 was so god damn stupid. This whole match is like a mercy killing, but you can kick out of his finisher? Japanese wrestling tends to do it a lot too, but I guess it's a different style of wrestling. I like both, but I feel like the 'old style' is going away completely to be more about big spots rather than big moments. More about 'look at the athleticism' than trying to make someone believe. I guess it's why I preferred 90s NJPW matches to AJPW matches. NJPW matches felt brutal without being as brutal(outside of certain blading jobs) where as AJPW matches felt brutal because they constantly dropped each other on their necks with big moves.
It's not longer a surprise when someone kicks out of your finisher because they ALWAYS do. It's like your 'Kick Out of Finisher' stat goes up to 110% during PPVs especially. You're telling me that every single wrestler has the Hulk Hogan ability now? Just poor, poor storytelling. Might as well eliminate finishers from wrestling in general if you're going to have them require two or three executions to get the pin.

To play off of what you said, I would like to see "secondary finishers" actually finish off people as opposed to just setting the opponent up for the main finisher.
