It took me way longer than it should have to see the difference in those pics.

How'd the show come across on TV, especially us in the crowd. I'd say we were hype for most of the night, especially during the punk/leaner RVd vs y2j and cena/Bryan parts

Only caught the second half but it seemed like a great crowd.

Crowd came off great.

Hot crowd that was really into it but not ultra smarky, thankfully you guys didn't chant Husky Harris and make the IWC wet themselves in rage.

The wyatts entrance is so creepy in person.

 

[Lantern Venom]

Uh...the first arrow seems to imply that the champ is Cena's manhood, which means he then put into....

I could imagine. The lights turned out, the lantern, the rocking chair, and Marc Crozer and The Rels' "Broken Out In Love" playing.

I didn't really like that last segment. The WWE basically made the crowd accomplices in destroying the roster because they knew who they wanted. It's a little unfair to the other guys. They could have done it a different way. Also, Cole was at his *****iest saying "You got to hand it to John Cena". So basically, Bryan is lucky that Cena chose him and we should all just be satisfied that Bryan is getting a title shot at all.

I'm calling it now, Cena is going to win and the WWE will sell it as Bryan was just fortunate to be there to begin with. He's not going to be treated as a formidable challenger or a threat to Cena's reign.

I agree with the first part. The WWE totally buried their entire roster tonight to get one guy over in Daniel Bryan.

The roster got buried But not deep,They'll be out by next week

The Shield have a message for Mark Henry.

Perhaps a result of their new head writer?

It seems as though, since the previous head writer's departure, they have been booking the show WAAAY better than before.

I don't know what's happened , but it's great.

 

[TX85]

Paul Heyman&Dutch Mantel are now head bookers right?,They need to get years worth contracts as head bookers/creative team

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Not sure if they're entirely head bookers now, but I know WWE has been flip flopping on head writers the past few months.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Five, maybe six, potentially GREAT matches on this card.

I wonder what Samoa Joe thinks when he looks at Punk and Bryan, wondering if he should have took a chance and aimed for the big time.

Looks like I'll have to go back and give WWE a try again based on what I'm reading. It appears they are starting to put on some good shows again.

I was Daniel Bryan's biggest critic when he signed with WWE. I thought he was a vanilla midget. He has proved me wrong and become a terrific personality. WWE has certainly proved me wrong big time by giving him this current push. This is great for him.

That said, I don't Joe ever would've been given the push Punk or Bryan have. He doesn't have the personality or mic skills to overcome his look in the WWE.

People always forget that one reason Joe has remained in TNA is because WWE has shown no interest in him every time his contract has expired. There's a reason for that.

Even if WWE crowds embraced Joe, would he have wanted to go through what Punk & Bryan have? It took Punk nearly leaving the company for WWE to finally let him shine. Bryan was released for a stupid reason, and only rehired because of massive fan support. He's been getting a massive pop since he lost the WHC, but it's taken WWE almost a year and a half to elevate him to the main event scene.

Who knows what WWE might do with Joe? They could have him main eventing with serious, submission gimmick one year, then have him wearing an evening gown as Kaitlyn's transgendered hairdresser the next year.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

I would've liked Joe to have at least one run in the E. A legit monster character would've been nice.

Not Vito!!!


And that sucks to see Lex Luger like that.

I think WWE made a really good call with Fandango last night. I am still not as sold on him as many people seem to be, but they saw the reaction he was given the night after WM, so they figured with a similar crowd (possibly a lot of the same exact people), he could finally get a reaction out of the crowd that he has failed to do since that night. They put him right in the middle of a pretty hot opening segment against one of the most over guys in the company (Orton), and the match was actually really good, IMO. So yeah, good job of handling Fandango and making him look good.


Also, did anyone else laugh when they saw JTG among the superstars at the end of the show?

 

[Donnie Darko]

that makes me sad

watching money in the bank, damn that ladder spot with punk was nasty, no wonder he needed staples
