I thought it was a good match.

 

[Angry Grimace]

Agree with you.

They couldn't have done that ending any better honestly.

Except unless they had Ambrose come out and interfere with the cash-in as part of the storyline where he was explicitly doing that rather than just have Cena hit him and have nothing of relevance occur.

 

[Showaddy]

Brock sells everything awesome. His G2S sell was amazing.

Which is funny because I kind of want to be like, 'Brock stop selling stuff. Seth is like 100 pounds'

lol and Cena still clubbing away care free after like 10 Kimura locks.

 

[Ithil]

It was a good PPV overall, though. Destruction and the CMLL show were both better, all the same.

 

[jmdajr]

That was a cool bit with Warrior's speech.

 

[Kiever Sher]

Lenar took 4 AAs, kicking out at one a couple of times, and took out Cena in the end, guy walked out standing tall with the strap. Looked strong enough to me, Cena was laid out.

 

[Serpentine]

Gotta make sure that Cena totally had Brock completely beat before the run-in

 

[DMczaf]

Thank God Brock retained. Now there's a little issue about that Curbstomp that needs to been addressed real soon with an F5.

Brock is going to German Suplex him into the 15th row.

 

[darkside31337]

I wonder if that has anything to do with the fact that only Cena gets booked strong. And that everyone gets fed to him.

Also has a good bit to do with the fact that the guys they have been pushing have ended up getting shelved with injuries.

 

[Keyser Soze]

LOL way to fuck over Brock's "Undefeated" Streak.

I love how WWE books a perfect game for 5 innings, then has the pitcher intentionally walk a batter, then spend the next 2 innings hyping how amazing a no hitter is, then books a single and spends the next inning hyping how amazing a shutout is. Then Cena hits a home run and single handedly wins the game and they try to hype the feat as if it was as amazing as if the perfect game went into the 9th inning.

 

[ultron87]

I think that ending was fine. Lesnar still looks like a monster since he took 4 AAs and a curb stomp and got back up.

 

[shwimpy]

lol and Cena still clubbing away care free after like 10 Kimura locks.

Not to mention a clean shot to the head with a steel briefcase. Then gets up 5 seconds later after an F5.

Anyone ever kick out of 3 AA's????, um..no. Brock is still legit.

 

[Glorified G]

I understand the point of setting up Cena and Rollins but that kinda end up hurting the mystique of Brock. Nobody should even want to try to cash in on Lesnar. If anything, Rollins should have tried to screw Brock over. Especially all that punishment Brock took by Cena and was still kicking out.

For the first time in forever Brock ended up looking like just another guy there.

 

[slightconfuse]

Bullshit. Brock was put over hugely by the match and the commentators.

" JOHN CENA ALMOST WON THE MATCH"

"WE WILL NEVE KNOW IF JOHN CENA WOULD HAVE Won"

 

[HeisenbergLannister]

You people are surprised at a DQ ending?

Plus it hints at the Authority wanting the belt off Lesnar too, as we'll get HHH saying Rollins was acting alone, only to reveal later on that it was a "conspiracy" so we can move onto Lesnar as a "anti-hero" as he faces Orton up to RR.

 

[Thorakai]

brock was totally gonna kick out of the last AA you marks

 

[Caspel]

I'm satisfied with the PPV. It helps Rollins on his way to the top, which in turn will help Ambrose.

It sucks that Cena will most likely get another rematch, but WWE should roll with Cena vs Rollins instead and keep teasing Ambrose. Let Lesnar fight someone else if he is scheduled for HitC.

 

[Data West]

People kick out of AAs all the time when John and his opponent want to make some faux 'big match feel' bullshit. Punk CONSTANTLY kicked out of it. It's like a trope of any John Cena PPV main event with a lot of build.

 

[deafmedal]

*shrugs shoulders*
I enjoyed the ending, Brock still champ, kids can still love Cena, it's a win-win!

Took 4 AA's, a million STFs, a Curbstomp and the show still ends with him F5'ing Cena out of the ring.

I don't know what people want? I guess the last PPV created some unrealistic expectations.

 

[Man God]

Bullshit. Brock was put over hugely by the match and the commentators.

A lot of people let their dislike for the current product blind them from seeing this match for what it was. A good back and forth beat down that sets up a bunch of future storylines, keeps Cena AND Brock strong, and had the fans going throughout.

 

[Chamber]

Friends, we were *this* close to having Rollins/Ambrose for the WWE title in a Hell in a Cell match. John Cena has ruined the dream once again.

 

[plagiarize]

I think that ending was fine. Lesnar still looks like a monster since he took 4 AAs and a curb stomp and got back up.

Yep. Got back up and laid out Cena.

 

[Angry Grimace]

I just want Cena to come out and pull a Bret Hart pre-WM13 level freakout

 

[BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!]

Brock >better acting than Cena confirmed.

Nope.

Try again, friend.

 

[DMczaf]

I just want Cena to come out and pull a Bret Hart pre-WM13 level freakout

And then Brock walks out screaming "I don't know shit, crybaby!"

 

[RP912]

*shrugs shoulders*

Pretty much. The ppv was better than I expected. One dud throughout the event.

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

Still pretty daunting to see Lesnar sell for Rollins even though he did take 4 AAs.

 

[Ravager61]

You realize it's that way because they always book *CENA* Strong, right? That's the exact reason they don't have main event level faces because they only have one focus in the company. It's like Hulkamania except without the strong midcard.

WWE needs dat K-Mart money

 

[Showaddy]

" JOHN CENA ALMOST WON THE MATCH"

"WE WILL NEVE KNOW IF JOHN CENA WOULD HAVE Won"

King literally said Brock would have been pinned without the interference lol

 

[Nocturnowl]

With the DQ ending and denied cash in combo it's the inconclusiveness of a poor Raw finish on PPV.
This PPV was free over here and I still feel a bit ripped off with that messy finale, I paid with my time dammit!
First hour was pretty solid mind you.

It ended on a DQ, which was a thing that pissed off old school fans for decades. So, yeah, its kind of a shit ending, especially given none of the storylines were resolved in any meaningful way.

 

[jmdajr]

Even the Divas tried. They put on a good show.

 

[Dark Ninja]

That ending got me excited to see Lesnar vs anyone who hasn't been with the company for a decade. But then I realized that's not gonna happen.

 

[BronsonLee]

So Seth Rollins is probably dead

 

[Professor Beef]

Cena couldn't job again, Lesnar had to look strong and they needed some heat on Seth so he could feud with Cena. Now Brock can take his holiday and everyone is happy. It was only 10 bucks after all.

Correction, it's NINE NINETY NINE. Someone can take that penny and throw it in a wishing well and hope for Punk to come back. What a bargain!

 

[Data West]

This means Seth will brush off Ambrose on Raw and be like 'I'm not worried about you following me anymore.'

 

[Caspel]

It won't happen but I want Wyatt vs Brock at HitC.

Cena vs Rollins at the PPV, too.
Ambrose vs HHH

 

[UrbanDandy]

I just want Cena to come out and pull a Bret Hart pre-WM13 level freakout

I also want this to happen.

 

[DMczaf]

We could have Brock vs Seth

or Brock vs Wyatt.

or Brock vs Ambrose

or Brock vs ANYONE ELSE OTHER THAN CENA

We are wasting our God King on this motherfucker.

 

[BronsonLee]

Also, Brock is still legit as fuck, Cena totally had his Hogan in the 92 Rumble moment by fucking over Rollins, and Rollins/Ambrose & Cena/Brock in the Cell will be great.

 

[Man God]

DQ's are a legit finish in pro wrestling as long as they serve a purpose like this one did. It put off a definitive match between these two for a later date, it helped build up interest in a cash in which hasn't been seriously teased in months and it helped bring back Cena strong while not ruining the excellent build up they have with Brock, who looked like a monster out there.

 

[krae_man]

I know the Jays have sucked for 20 years. Longest Post season drought in MLB!

 

[shwimpy]

It won't happen but I want Wyatt vs Brock at HitC.

Cena vs Rollins at the PPV, too.
Ambrose vs HHH

Just realized Bray wasn't even on the show tonight. Poor guy.

 

[simplythebest]

Friends, we were *this* close to having Rollins/Ambrose for the WWE title in a Hell in a Cell match. John Cena has ruined the dream once again.

 

[somedevil]

King literally said Brock would have been pinned without the interference lol

If you watched the replay he kicked out before Seth hit Cena.

We could have Brock vs Seth

or Brock vs Wyatt.

or Brock vs Ambrose

or Brock vs ANYONE ELSE OTHER THAN CENA

We are wasting our God King on this motherfucker.

Hope Bryan is ready by Survivor Series like the reports say.

 

[Data West]

Just realized Bray wasn't even on the show tonight. Poor guy.

That's what a Cena feud does for you. That's why when they say they only have Cena so they have to book him strong, it's like, yeah no shit. Cena gobbles up all the heat someone has and discards them once he can no longer use them anymore.

 

[jmdajr]

Just realized Bray wasn't even on the show tonight. Poor guy.

It's fine. No need for a throw away match.
