I used up all my salt when Naito won the G1, so I'll probably be OK if/when the worst happens in Bryan's match.

No I am not. Cena's been in there with plenty great performers over the years, and he doesn't always look great when facing them. Yet when he is in there with the best guys like Punk and HBK all the sudden he looks amazing? That by definition is being carried to a good match.

have you even seen the punk/cena match
Yes, and John was carried to a great match.

explain what punk did to carry him
Or the Cena/Lashley Match
Or the Cena/Lesnar match
Or the Cena/Mysterio match
Or the Cena/Henry match
Or the Numerous Cena/Edge matches
Or the... well you get the point.

The only thing that could be bad would be LOL CENA WINS, which I -really- don't think is going to happen
Also Naito gonna Naito

What are the odds for Randy Orton to cash in the briefcase and Vintage RKO Bryan to win the belt?

I think that line by Eve Marie will go down as the Austin 3:16 moment of this era

Triple H pedigrees both John Cena and Daniel Bryan, pins both of them at the same time to win the WWE Championship, and then defeats Orton as he attempts to cash in
but yeah no at the very least cena is not walking out champion
Um they all sucked ass.
^ I've been tired of Cena's character for fucking ages. But at least I can acknowledge that he can put on a good match if he wants to.
Punk was sloppy as fuck during their MiTB match.

Even some Orton matches were boring.
But Cena is perfectly capable of having good matches. Without being "carried". Seriously, such as stupid statement.
Well. I guess we're done here. No one is going to take your opinion seriously if you don't even like (not even love) ONE of those matches. Let alone say they outright suck.
I want to know this to. I have only ever used the 360 app.

How was the 360 stream?

I think it will happen. I'm basing this on the past ten years of the WWE.
The way I see it:
- A Maddox distraction with Vince costs Bryan the match.
- So Cena wins LOL
- Bryan chases Maddox to the back to start their feud.
- Orton comes out, doesn't cash in. PPV ends with Cena and Orton staring each other down in the ring.
- Cena's music hits.
- We all die a little inside.
I think that about covers the worst case and hence most likely scenario.
Its great! You order the PPV at wwe.com like you would if you were gonna watch it on the computer and then it shows up on your 360 app. Unlike the pc stream I think the 360 stream is HD quality. I just want to test the PS3 app since I will be going PS4 next gen.

Honestly the only thing keeping me from buying into any CENAWINSLOL scenario is the fact that he's injured
Comes with the territory, :-D. Especially at the time (few years ago), Orton's become a much better worker in recent years.
I think we can agree that Cena's good matches greatly outnumber his bad ones though. You're usually gonna get a good one.
Its the same old Supercena shit we have been going through for years. They want me to give him another chance at least listen to what the audience wants and turn his ass heel. It would be right up there with Hogan's turn.

Damn, wish i kept my 360 at least one more month lol. Fuck it. I'll bite and update later!
I thought about trying the PS3 stream, but it requires you to order it through the live events player rather than the website. It doesn't have any of the rewind/pause features that the 360 app does if the description is to be believed. Never had any issues with the 360 stream, so I'll stick with that.
Hyped for tonight, hoping for the best!

They're not gonna do that until they have someone who can replace him as the top babyface.

Curious how Cena/Bryan ends.
If this was Saltybet I would go all in on Orton walking out as champ but I wonder how they will handle the Cena/Bryan stuff.
Will they finally let Cena lose clean to a up and coming talent? Not likely but it would be a nice thing to see happen.
They will probably pull some Cena/Punk stuff and ether have Cena get detracted by someone outside or have his foot on the ropes but Triple H didnt see it.
Then again maybe Cena winslol.jpeg and with the rumours of Cena taking time off maybe Trips will turn and Orton and H will write Cena off TV with a beatdown before Orton cashes in.

They have it. Punk or Bryan could easily replace him.
I support Ryan "Ryback" Back and endorse him as the next Hulk Hogan.it should be Ryback
Were you like WH Park from live audio wrestling who attended the show who wanted a Shinsuke Nakamura vs Katsuyori Shibata final?
He was also great calling out Naito for his Indie gear and bad haircut. lol
Shinsuke vs. Shibata should have been the final :-(
In what regard. Because Daniel Bryan's not suddenly capable of drawing a boatload of money or massive TV ratings. Neither's Punk. They have better matches than Cena and I prefer them (having watched them on the indies since like 2003) but they don't keep Cena at the top because they can't be arsed thinking of new ideas. There's reasons and stuff.

Ohh. Maybe instead of Nash interfering in this match its Scott Hall!
I mean lets not completely copy and paste the Summerslam 2011 script.

Y'all ready to cry? There will be tears tonight.
Yes, this will be historic.
I bet there will be but I will only complain if Cena wins and a bit less if Bryan wins doesn't win clean. I just hope the angle is kept after the match.

Yeah, I would've preferred pretty much anything - the final was a good match, but I didn't feel like Naito had a particularly good G1 to warrant him being there. Goto getting injured messed up their plans, tbh. I expected it to be him vs Shinsuke in the final, but would've loved Shibata vs Shinsuke or one more round of Tanahashi vs Shinsuke.
Naito obviously has a lot of potential, but he very much needs to meet that potential like right now. It's obvious that they're pushing him down the Tanahashi route, but I personally prefer him when he's working as a heel.
He's the legit guy
