It's not an end though, is it? 

The Rock's story here is going to end with him as a valet, possibly interfering on behalf of Cena.

I personally don't really care for that. I'm not just grateful to him for showing up.

I've already said I'm buzzing for a Cena heel run, especially if Rock isn't around that much and we get to see heel Cena spread his wings. 

Not to get bogged down in back and forth but do you not think Rock's presence elevated the Cena turn? At all?

A nutshot to Cody on its own wouldn't be anywhere near as meaningful as what happened.

Also, Travis Scott can fuck off along with all the other celebrities they keep wheeling out.

Cody needs to wheel out a real artist and celebrity in return, like Jimmy Nail.

Erm, difficult to say.

I enjoyed the angle in a vacuum, so Rock's presence in that regard probably helped I guess.

I don't actually think if they'd turned Cena a different way it'd have been any less effective though, as its Cena turning heel. That's huge, regardless.

My issue is more with The Rock in the build to get here, how everything around him is always non-sensical and shoehorned just to get him involved somehow.

But the angle was great on the night, and I'm looking forward to seeing Cena as a heel. That's about it.

I agree - the look, the throat cut...it was all brilliant. The Rock definitely added to it. 100%.

Biggest heel move of the night was these tone deaf MAGA dickheads wheeling out the American national anthem in Canada.

I thought it was fairly clear that whoever won the Chamber was aligning themselves with the Rock,

Can some of you lads post the lottery numbers on here on a Saturday morning for us thickos, cheers :)

Only downer of the show is it looks like we're definitely getting that stupid triple threat with Rollins, Reigns and Punk.

Rollins/Reigns is the Mania match, Punk/Reigns can happen at Summerslam.

Can't they give Punk Logan Paul or something?

Or, with Roman interfering to stop him which sets up (another rumoured) Roman vs Rock. Cena doesn't have to win at Mania but even with Roman's interference I think he does.

Personally I saw the twist coming when my mate messaged me “Did you see the Cena heel turn?” Just as I started watching the main event. As far as foresight goes that’s there with “It was obviously going to be this twist when the twist started happening” along with someone predicting a Cena heel turn at an every big show he’s been on for the last 20 years. Still, fuck me they actually did it and even knowing beforehand it was still a great shock. His face man, dark Cena is going to be great. Long live Big Patch John.
 

Really enjoyed the women’s Chamber, that fucking hair whip! Sami and Kev did what they do, they don’t disappoint. Feel like Orton coming down (in his trunks obv) took the drama of it all away but they should have a cracking brawl. No more Kev and Sami until there’s big gold at stake please.

The back and forth about Travis Scott has been really funny, not specifically just here or owt but everywhere i've been reading reactions. I know they've always done this and it doesn't really bother me when celebrities get involved but the citing of numbers and social media influence is a big part of what's properly repulsed me. I'd have never thought twice about him being there at all because again I get it, he's really popular in the actual sense and not just the wrestling sense but then all the discussion comes down to numbers. Fucking boring. That ad they ran before one of the matches shagging the Rock's arse in about how many mates he's got on the internet and all the cash he's made, same thing. The inexplicably shit and weird Pat McAfee thing from what appears to be a television show about Stephanie slowly exhaling words at other millionaires? same vibe, It all getting cited by people is like a few years back when bad or boring or shite or weird things would get the "well, it's just good business isn't it!" response. I just do not know who all that peacocking and wanking and stuff is for and who's impressed by it. It's like clapping coke cans for their prominence on the shelf over the iced tea and the panda pops.

 

EDIT - where I was staying had Netflix so I watched this and mostly enjoyed it! there's my review.

I absolutely saw the Cena turn coming. But that's because I made the mistake of turning on Facebook this morning before I checked the show. Bastard idiot.

Same here. Well annoyed.

Yeah Travis Scott being there was weird but get why they're doing it.

He just looked like an absolute dickhead mind, whatever the fuck he was doing in the corner. I'm not down with the kids anymore obviously but was just strange. Very odd man and didn't come across as cool in any way. Having a toy belt with him didn't help either, I'll never understand people thinking they look cool because they have a fake belt at shows.

But yeah, it'll get mainstream attention, the numbers will be high and he's popular somewhere I'm sure.
