Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted January 4, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted January 4, 2012 I've only just watched it but I thought it was great. Something totally different and by the looks of things there's more to come. I thought Jericho did well and was suprised he kept them cheering for so long. Â Interested to see where they go.

TCW Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Out of all of Jericho's comeback/debut's, this for me is probably one of the best. I watched all 3 live and this, even though we strongly suspected Jericho, it was still somewhat uncertain. Â That darkness, then the jacket lighting up was f'kin awesome, at first I was like"oh, he's a face", as the promos to me were heelish, then halfway through I could see he was working the crowd. Awesome, then the followup segment on wwe.com just cemented how awesome the man is. Â To all the whingers, I think this is a great time for WWE, there appears to more of an emphasis on solid wrestling than there has for years, they are investing in young talent, there is a few old faces back for nostalgia and neither Cena or Orton are champion.

Dingo Warrior Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 WWE bringing back Jericho it is just a short term fix and not a long term solution. Â Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know everyone's entitled to their opinion but yours is especially dumb.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonyp Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 WWE will always make money regardless of how good the product is as there is no competition.They could have monkeys wrestling and people would still watch it (well with the miz I suppose we're not too far away from that scennario).But hey what do I know,I'm just a tool because I think that the worlds biggest wrestling promotion should have more wrestling.How dare I expect such a thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CiderBag Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 But hey what do I know,I'm just a tool  Agreed.  Seconded.  If you want more wrestling, watch NJPW or something similar. With WWE, you know what you're getting so if you don't like that product, find something that makes you happier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators PowerButchi Posted January 4, 2012 Moderators Share Posted January 4, 2012 So they should fill Raw full of WRESTLING, and so give people less reason to buy the PPVs in order to see those longer matches? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWEs product, their brand of pro-wrestling has been a whole lot more than simply matches for decades and decades now. I'd presume it's been that way for as long as you've existed as well. And it's fucking great like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonyp Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Don't think I've said that once. There were about 5 matches on RAW (I could be wrong there) and only one of them was any good. I'm not asking for 30 minute classics, just decent matches. Just because the PPV's are for the big matches doesn't mean that Raw and Smackdown cant have good matches either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted January 4, 2012 Moderators Share Posted January 4, 2012 Depends what you mean by good matches. Smackdown tends to have a 15 minute or so match (with fucking wank parity booking) every week, and there's no rule saying a 3 minute TV match can't be any good. Chris Masters and Drew McIntyre managed to have a cracking 90 second match on Smackdown in Feb last year somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Power Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 How about those 5* epic matches that they used to have on Raw in 1999? They were something else. Who needs Austin driving a beer truck, we want a wrestling match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
