Been having an urge to rewatch the Brock/Roman (Seth) match from WM. A few notes.

1. It is wild how Roman took THREE damn F-5's and kept going. Wild looking back on it.

2. That smiling nonsense Roman was doing, what was the point?

3. Do yall remember how scared we were that he was going to win when he started to make his comeback? I know I was.

This is still my favorite match of this year from WWE. I have to rewatch the 3X match from Royal Rumble again to make sure but this was a damn good match man

The WM match was a damn near classic... Technical classic? Hell no... But it was such a believable well built story... Roman looked super strong not being pinned by Brock... He got destroyed by Brock, but everyone does (besides Haitch), and showed it didn't bother him... Took two guys and 5x finishers to pin him...

Brock only started to get beat down after a very believable head trauma spot where he got busted open... That's the only way Brock should be beat IMO, playing off all the concussion stories...

Seth looked great being the total slime ball... He got to Rated R Edge status in two years... It took Edge 7 or 8 to get there...

Just such a great match that played with the emotions of all the Roman haters and fans... Ditto for Brock and Seth fans... That was a big show match...

Sorry for the rambling... Had a bunch of sake and sushi at a work party couple hours ago..

The Roman smiling started EARLY in the match if you remember. I just think it was overdone. Maybe one smile, but he was doing way too much. I understand though

Had a great time with the homie jshortt at Smackdown tonight. We sat in the front row next to JoJo.

Should have been a change in character that got introduced on that match...

More bad news for WWE. Last night's Raw drew a 2.33 rating. That's the third straight week under 2.4, and viewership declined each hour.

Yesse tweeted something about it being the lowest rated episode of Raw in 17 years...

Kane a focal point in 2015, your top champion booked like a whiny loser, and various talented yet aimless characters getting jobber entrances, sounds about right.

^ If Ramen was booked correctly (heel), he'd get himself over just by doing something similar.

Tough seeing him drown on RAW with that Chicago crowd.

 

[robpzee612]

Yeah he shoulda said something bad about all Chicago teams.

 

[King of Trash Style]

Why doesn't Seth Rollins shoot down these ideas for him to consistently lose?

It's insane that the United States Championship is the most protected title in the company right now.

Nobody has balls this generation B it ain't the 80s no more

 

[Case]

That woulda been a perfect way to turn him heel..Which he desperately needs to be..The crowd wants to hate him so bad but Vince is convinced he needs to be forced down our throats til we accept him as a face..

Same with Sext..The fans want to cheer him so bad, and you can just tell he's a natural babyface..But Vince don't see that either so we won't get it..

 

[shogun]

If he says he doesn't like the ideas but the writers tell him too bad, then what would his next step be?

Agreed. Dude's been champ less than 7 months; he's just trying to eat good and flourish out here.

Wasn't it rumored that Heyman was helping Vince out with creative? Or was he mostly responsible for the EVOLVE / Sapolsky connect?

 

[22stylez]

Woulda you marks finally be happy if Roman was a heel and sext a face? Like Roman would be booked as steph and haiches step child?
