Amazing.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

they should just let Punk/Bryan do 20 minute matches every month

 

[Ithil]

Kind of a weird SD overall, in that most of it really didn't need to be live at all, but solid apart from the endless promos and reruns.

However, the ending was awesome. Great match and booking.

 

[Nelo Ice]

That's how u end a show! Also again Punk and Bryan have to be in a feud, they've put up clinics every time they've wrassled.

 

[UberTag]

Awesome main event. Gotta give props when they're due. Terrific booking!

 

[ZeroRay]

Way to make your champions look good and build up another feud well, WWE.

Holy shit, that statement had no sarcasm.

 

[Anth0ny]

That was an awesome match. Nice to see talent in the ring.

LIVE REVIEW A WAI STARTING NOW

 

[siddx]

Every time I started to accept the level of wrestling out of the other wrestlers in the company, I get a match like that which reminds me how entertaining a wrestling match truly can be.

 

[Brinbe]

That's what they need to do with all these guys. Cody/Ziggs/Jericho, etc. Just let them fucking wrestle.

 

[Phoenixazure]

Best match in god knows how long. Dusty finish keeps them both very strong.

PLZ PLZ PLZ Daniel Bryan v. Punk for summerslam

 

[Kyoufu]

This was the best Smackdown crowd ever. Best Smackdown match ever. Best booking ever. Best timing on the chris brown attention ever.

I'm covered in semen.

 

[Lunchbox]

-heel raw gm, smackdown champ
-face SD gm, raw champ
-5 star match
-great booking

that last 20 mins was amazing


#ChrisBrown Effect

 

[trunbuns]

This was great. These two could really have a fued of shawn/bret proportions if they're given the opportunity and time.

Plus, whisper it quietly lest they hear, this actually feels like long term booking to that effect.

 

[El Pescado]

I think if Johnny Ace had hit an Ace Crusher on Teddy Long I would have literally exploded.

 

[Sanjuro]

Amazing what 2 guys who actually can wrestle can do in a ring. So good in every aspect.

Except elbows.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Wrestling?

IN 2012!?

[tm24]

When was the last time this thread didn't get mad at a Dusty finish?

 

[Barack Lesnar]

Unbelievable, what a fucking match. So many great aspects to it, just unbelievable. This is why I love watching WWE and why I'll never stop.

 

[BoboBrazil]

Awesome match, but these guys always deliver. They need to do a best of 7 series.

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

I think if Johnny Ace had hit an Ace Crusher on Teddy Long I would have literally exploded.

Can you say... WRESTLEMANIA MOMENT

 

[Professor Beef]

Look at how violent Johnny is. Teddy did the right thing by walking away. Totally kept his cool.

Fucking awesome match, too. The world needs more Punk/Bryan matches.

ok vince lets not take it too far

I just saw his Ace Crusher today and I would've marked out too lol. Wow hope for once they don't fuck this up.

 

[Brinbe]

Wrestling?

I know =(

More 30-minute Trips-Taker promos coming up next week.

hahahaha at this comment and Kyoufu's "covered in semen"

 

[iBuzz7S]

Punk has Jericho at WM. I say scrap everything and let Punk headline with Bryan, with both titles on the line.

Guess who wins and is undisputed champion once again?

 

[EraldoCoil]

is NWA going live now?

 

[Shadowlink]

Awesome main event! I wouldn't mind a Punk/Bryan feud in the future.

 

[Anth0ny]

Why are they even acknowledging the Chris Brown thing on Twitter? He's a fucking woman beater and called Punk a steroid user with shrunken balls.

that would be a huge waste of a feud
Punk/Bryan has the makings of a long-term epic a la bret/shawn

 

[IC_Champion]

I don't know whether this was asked: which company had the best PPV names: WCW (pre WWE take-over) or WWF (now WWE)?

 

[Ithil]

Ok. At WM, Punk retains his title, Bryan loses his to Sheamus.

He is then drafted to RAW, and slowly starts a very long feud with Punk for the WWE title, perhaps slow burning all the way to next year's WM.

I can dream.

[gibration]

The commentary was great too. I loved how Cole called both Punk and D Bryan two of the best wrestlers in the world.

Because Punk has, yet again, gotten people other than wrestling fans to talk about the WWE.

Or it's just some kind of ploy for ratings.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Chris Brown wins MITB at Mania and wins the belt later that night against CM Punk thus creating Vince's big money maker.

 

[BoboBrazil]

Bad thing is all the commercial breaks during the main is gonna bring down the rating to make it look worse on paper. Plus, this show was poorly hyped as being live tonight. It was only mentioned like once in passing on Raw.

HHH physique will look nothing like that at WM

 

[Anth0ny]

I love how we get more and more photoshopping every year. Jesus. the last one looks plastic.

 

[funkystudent]

How old is that HHH body shot?

I guess they just took the head of current HHH and slapped it on a promo shot from the early 00's.
