Moderators Astro Hollywood Posted July 18, 2011 Moderators Share Posted July 18, 2011 It's the first PPV I've watched, let alone sat up and watched live, since Eddie died. I only started casually watching Raw again about six weeks ago, but the Punk thing totally drew me in. So, yeah, compelling TV = people will start watching again.

The Cum Doctor Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 * I've seen the Smackdown MitB get a LOT of praise. Up untill the Powerbomb spot, I thought that it WAS building up to be potentially the best match of it's type, but after it, it seemed to slow down to a crawl almost. They managed to get the momentum back before the end. Sin Cara looked the best he's ever looked for me. So yeah, it was some fun stuff and a pleasant surprise as the win too. Â * Kelly Kelly is probably the only one of the divas I can stand now that Lay-Cool aren't teaming. The fire she brought to the match was the only redeemable factor here. Â * Mark Henry vs. The Big Show was decent enough. They actually plotted out a decent wee story and played it out well. It also done a great job of making Mark Henry look like an absolute monster. Be interesting to see where he goes from here, especially now that Randy Orton has lost the belt. Â * The Christian/Orton match wasn't quite as good as their Over the Limit match. They did put together a cracker though. The reversals and all of that after the first Unprettier attempt was great fun. Also loved the post-match stuff. Â * There's no way Cena/Punk isn't going to be the 2011 Match of the Year, is there? It's been said that it's Punk's best ever match, and it is, but it's also Cena's best ever if you ask me. Everything about it was amazing. CM Punk came away from it looking absolutely invincible when he survived every big weapon that Cena had, more than once. John Cena looked brilliant, giving CM Punk the beasting of a lifetime and then punching Johnny Ace a cracker. It built and built and fed off of the fans. Â I absolutely LOVED this PPV! Â EDIT: Forgot to mention the RAW MITB, which I loved every second of. Even the botches helped to add to the madness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra1000 Posted July 18, 2011 Author Share Posted July 18, 2011 I'm curious as to why you may think this? Â No not because he took a punch. But with all the rumours circulating about his failures within wwe, I thought it could spell the end of him as he was put on tv only for McMahon and Cena to deck him. A storyline end to something in real life... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A storyline end to something in real life... Or maybe those "rumours" were just that and the basis of those rumours was only put out because they panned to involve Johnny Ace in the storyline. He only just got promoted a few months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Big Benny HG Posted July 18, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted July 18, 2011 My little brother who's not exactly a wrestling fan was going nuts at how 'that wee mexican cunt is DEED!'...I'm guessing Sin Cara probably knew he was out for 30 days so could take a harder bump than normal, knowing he's not going to be working in the next day or two.

I've always liked the Four Stars motif, even before I knew it was Chicago's banner, and I've been saying for months now that, if it emerges that there is such thing as a magic genie, I'm going to wish to go back in time knowing everything I know now, shove myself through the gym and wrestling training, become a wrestler nicking Randy Orton's "Greco" pose before he's debuted it, and, most importantly, steal the New Nexus Lightning Hand design for my merchandise. Â Put those two together and you have an awesome design like on that t-shirt up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cum Doctor Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I actually liked the ending, and the botch is included in that. That final stretch of spots was just madness and the tumble at the end just added to the whole thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jock Knew Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Obviously an amazing PPV and I can't add any more hyperbole to how great the main event was. Chuffed to bits for Daniel Bryan as well, he deserved it and it actually seemed like a really special moment. Â Just a small note: did anyone else think Sheamus landing on the ladder looked more painful than what happened to Sin Cara? Sin Cara's ladder was obviously gimmicked, whereas Sheamus just took a big old fashioned back bump onto one of the metal ladders. He bounced right up and I winced.

Paid Members FLips Posted July 18, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted July 18, 2011 Not sure why everyone is saying Daniel Bryan deserved the win last night. He's a charismaless mid carder in WWE. No matter how good he was in the indies, he has no noticable star quality in WWE, except for people who loved him in ROH, etc. Even in The Nexus he was the lamest looking one, and that group had Heath Slater and Darren Young in it.

Shane O' Mac Version 2 Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I love watching Daniel Bryan wrestle, he has great intensity, but has shown little on the mic, and his main crowd connection is that he's a plucky underdog. Hopefully the MITB win leads to more character depth for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
