d-d-d-dAz Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I pretty much dislike everything about Santino. Â That said, the main event just was wrestling. It was beautiful, triumphant, uplifting and, actually, rather heart warming. I wish I hadn't known beforehand. If they go down the hokey 'OH! LOOK HE'S BEEN BEATEN DOWN! LETS REWARD THE PERSON THAT'S GONE DONE IT WITH A TITLE MATCH! route, i'll be heartbroken. Â If D-Bry is going to Mania, they could do worst than having him and Santino as the last two in the match; a few false finishes in Santino's favour would have the live crowd soiling themselves, I think.

ItsClobberingTime Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I really don't get how anyone can hate Santino. Â The guy gets fantastic reactions when he's pushed like this, he's NOT actually that bad in the ring, he plays his character to perfection and people care about him more than they do a lot of meaningless people on the roster. Â Why not have an underdog character in the Chamber? It worked for him in the Rumble finish last year, and it worked here as well. I'm not saying he should win it, but if I were to list who actually gets their character booked right, and who performs it the best he'd be up there near the top. Â He's been ridiculously consistent when given the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members gadge Posted February 18, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted February 18, 2012 Love the finish to the battle royal, the crowd were ecstatic about Santino's victory. Magic stuff. Â Considering the lack of stars on the show, I thought they did well to sow the first seeds of Sheamus challenging Bryan and possibly set up a short Otunga vs Santino match for WrestleMania, representing their GMs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamtheman Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Otunga was lucky to not do some serious damage to his ankle on the elimanation. looked nasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ Impact Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I really cant stand Khali he's just useless dunno why they brought him back theres plenty of guys that could use the tv time, is Orton really hurt or is it a way of getting him pissed off and wanting his title shot leading to mania??

ItsClobberingTime Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 He was really hurt Monday night, though not by Bryan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The King of Old School Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 If i was booking Smackdown until Mania now, i think i'd have The Big Show take the title tomorrow, and have him defend against Sheamus at Mania. That would free up Bryan/Orton to feud with Orton wanting vengeance for Bryan costing him a chance at the World Title at EC. Does anyone thing we're going to get a match for control of Raw & Smackdown at Mania with Teddy and Mr Excitment in there respective talents corners?

ItsClobberingTime Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Respective talent? Fuck that, get Ace in the ring damnit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King of Old School Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Could be Ace/Otunga vs Santino/Long? The Ram GM tweeted earlier that he has a huge "Game changing" announcment tomorrow aswell, could be progression on the angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsClobberingTime Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I assumed "Game" = HHH to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted February 18, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted February 18, 2012 Get him in the ring, he has had more WON five star matches than HBK, so in theory he is already the best performer WWE have ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moofasa Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Jericho and Punk already have a storyline built into their little feud. It doesnt really need the belt. A feud about who is the best wrestler in the world doesn't need the belt? Of course it does. Otherwise it's completely illogical. They both call themselves "the best in the World" whether they are holding the belt or not. The belt would lend some credibility to their claims, but realistically it isn't needed. In fact, I'd say it either needs both the WWE and World Titles, or neither. Totally agree. When Jericho first called himself the best in the world he was the undisputed champion. I thought the feud had legs, if Punk was claiming to be the best in the world while never having known how it felt to be undisputed. Just the WWE title in the match is meaningless. And fighting over the moniker is just weak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted February 19, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted February 19, 2012 Could be Ace/Otunga vs Santino/Long? The Ram GM tweeted earlier that he has a huge "Game changing" announcment tomorrow aswell, could be progression on the angle. That announcment is something to do with HBK and HHH. It wasn't exactly subtle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSeaTiger Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Just caught the end of Mahal vs Jackson. By god that were shite. They were saying Big Zeke is the "personification of Domination" then 1 min later he taps to a camel clutch?! And the crowd clearly didn't give a fuck about either man. Zeke looks shit since he grew in his receding 'fro too. Hope they both go in the post-mania endeavours clearout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
