I've seen worse women's matches on Dynamite this year, put it that way. The spots were all over the place. Like when Becky sat up in position waiting for Lita to put on her sleeper. The whole point of training and planning your match is to not make it look planned so yeah, she’s been away for a while, but to me there were lots of blown spots and bits where they forgot the next move. And yeah, there have been worse matches on Dynamite. But not between 2 of the biggest names in WWE history. Becky as the face of the division should be leading the way. This match wasn’t that. Awful ending as well. @jazzygeofferzthey looked great in NXT as well. The Viking Experience was the beginning of the end.

Paid Members BomberPat Posted February 20, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted February 20, 2022 "Lots of blown spots and clunky transitions" sounds like Lita has picked up right where she left off, though. She was never good, just better than most of the dross that passed for a women's division at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The King Of Swing Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 For example every spot where a group of wrestlers get together ready for a big dive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to be “that guy” who nitpicks, but that statement isn’t accurate. Reigns didn’t beat Rollins during this run, Seth won the match via DQ. In fact, Reigns has never defeated Rollins in a one on one match. According to Rollins at least. Edit - Pretty sure there’s been a few average Raw matches between them where Reigns probably won.

I’m not saying it’s true at all (as I mentioned I’ve only caught the Rumble and Elimination Chamber this year), it’s just that I’d seen it reported in a few headlines - quick Google and this is one such report: https://www.thesportster.com/roman-reigns-potential-feat-goldberg-elimination-chamber/. But actually reading it, it does point out what you said, so I’ve no idea why they reported it if he hasn’t beat Rollins but retained by getting DQed. As you mentioned, it’s not true and makes their story pointless! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamura Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Something not true in wrestling, whatever next? Tommy Dreamer made an entire career (as even WWE incorrectly claim years later) on the back of a lie told by Joey Styles that he was the first man to kick out of the Superfly Splash.

As you mentioned, it’s not true and makes their story pointless! Turns out my fact was a load of tosh anyway. To be fair, I was using Seth Rollins promo package at the Royal Rumble as my source, he claimed Reigns has never defeated him one on one, but according to cagematch.net they’ve had a fair amount of matches over the years on Raw and SD. Reigns winning most of them via DQ but also has a couple of pinfall wins over Seth. Which makes the “never been beaten” storyline even worse. I’ve not been a weekly viewer for some time now, dipping my toes back in for Mania season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
