And a match SO EXTREME it has twelve stipulations:

[Poit]

Was the tag title match bumped up to the main show?

[Dark One]

Also I think Roman Reigns has a match, but I'm not sure. Every time I try to look it up and find a graphic, I end up blacking out and losing a span of like five or ten minutes.

https://i.imgur.com/nT6Rsh.jpg

[Poit]

Ah, this is going to be a good crowd.

[Dark One]

Was the tag title match bumped up to the main show?

I would assume so, but who knows. It is Cesaro/Kidd, and they seem determined to make them the pre-show guys.

[DaveWadding]

over/under on number of CM Punk chants: 6

[The Destroyer]

Was the tag title match bumped up to the main show?
It was featured in the card rundown on the pre-show, so it looks like it.

[Volare]

Chi town crowd will make this ok.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>lol Curb Stomp edited out of Rollins' WM31 win in the video package. I can understand banning it going forward but really?

Bet the next thing they do is remove any "Seth Rollins wins after a Curb Stomp" timestamps from the Network.</font>

[Ruien]

Looking forward to Cena and Rusev but not much else. What else should I be hyped for?

[Mercenary]

lol
booker shooting on Milena

[Ruien]

Oh ha, Dean and Harper should be good. Does Bray have a match? Or is he still feuding with himself? What about Ryback?

[slik]

I can't wait for this crowd during Show/Reigns lol

[Sixx]

Wow, the ears on this guy.

[Dark One]

Really nice of them to finally turn on Ambrose's microphone for the last few words of his promo.

[Dark One]

I can't wait for this crowd during Show/Reigns lol

[Volare]

I've heard 3 punk chants during the pre-show alone now.

[Dark One]

over/under on number of CM Punk chants: 6

Pretty sure they've hit that by the halfway point of this pre-show.

[The Destroyer]

I've only heard one, there's been a few "Cena sucks" which kind of sound similar I guess?

[Poit]

"The new sensation"?

[Dark One]

That cape is still really stupid.

As is adding "The Next Sensation" alongside "The Man that Gravity Forgot."

[Dark One]

How do you have a fucking commercial break in the middle of a match on your own network FOR THE NETWORK?

[Poit]

For the new viewers watching for free. WWE is trying to get them to keep their subscriptions.

[Dark One]

I don't think interrupting your primary product with a reminder that they're watching this on the thing they're watching it with is a good way to convince people to keep their subscriptions.

[Poit]

Don't TV channels show ads for upcoming content, weekly shows, etc.?

[Dark One]

They do, but I'm not paying $10 a month for ABC.

I'm not one of those "lol, wwe is stupid, showing commercials for the network on the network" guys. It just seems dumb that that's where they cram it in. You have an eight minute match, and you're going to chew it up a minute of it with a promo you could just as easily show afterward?

[Dark One]

Hahahahaha. They asked a "Are you still relevant?" question to Kane for this Twitter Q&A. A+

[Evil Vito]

:lol: <font color=goldenrod>Asking Kane if he's still relevant</font>

[DAMN iNATOR]

I don't think interrupting your primary product with a reminder that they're watching this on the thing they're watching it with is a good way to convince people to keep their subscriptions.

"Hey, trial subscribers! Here's a commercial mid-PPV match! Everybody watches commercials still, so there's no way this can backfire on us and cause all you new subscribers who WERE thinking about keeping their subscription to cancel at 11:00:01PM EST!"

[Dark One]

That was a short Q&A.

Look at it this way Tom Phillips, at least you didn't get lit on fire.

[Volare]

What are the odds of Lana in a hot American Bikini?

110%

[The Destroyer]

Going to watch Ambrose/Harper then disappear off to bed. Nothing else on the card bar the main event and the tag titles match I'm especially fussed about.

[Fignuts]

people who bring their replica belts. so dumb

[Poit]

Yeah, I totally understand. We don't want to see the match with interruptions, but WWE wants to show the commercial when the most people are watching, which is of course during the match.

[DaveWadding]

A Chicago Street Fight that has to end in the ring. Nice

[Dark One]

Both men wearing basically the same thing for a "street fight" as they would for a regular wrestling match.

Also, Ambrose almost got impaled by a leg of the chair.

[Fignuts]

dude with the led light pissing me off

[Volare]

CHICAGO PARKING LOT BRAWL!!

[Dark One]

I hope there's a 24 hour car chase, and the match continues on Monday. This match should go on for a month.

[Droford]

Lol harper drives away

[Poit]

So... now it's really a street fight?

[#1-norm-fan]

LOL Fuck this crowd, that was awesome.

[Poit]

I hope there's a 24 hour car chase, and the match continues on Monday. This match should go on for a month.

<strike>Axelmania</strike> Chicago Street Fight running wild!

[Sixx]

What's a "Kiss me Arse" match?

Loser kisses the winner's ass?

[Dark One]

I had an idea for a match like this when I was twelve.

I hope it goes on for a year.

[Frank Drebin]

A Chicago Street Fight that has to end in the ring. Nice

We have rules here that you probably don't have in Arizona. Extreme ones.

[DaveWadding]

What's a "Kiss me Arse" match?

His arse.

[#1-norm-fan]

WrestleMania. Hell in a Cell to finally end the match.

[Droford]

A Chicago street fight in the actual streets of Chicago gets 5* from me if it happens

[Frank Drebin]

What happened on the pre show?

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>I hope Ambrose and Harper return to finish the match later and it goes into the books as a 2+ hour match.</font>

[Poit]

<font color=goldenrod>I hope Ambrose and Harper return to finish the match later and it goes into the books as a 2+ hour match.</font>

:y:

[Frank Drebin]

Maybe they'll go shopping on Michigan Avenue

[Droford]

What's a "Kiss me Arse" match?

Loser kisses the winner's ass?

Winner rips loses head off mortal Kom bat style so they can kiss their arse

[Dark One]

What happened on the pre show?

The Man that Gravity Forgot, The Next Sensation, The Guy Who's Going to Keep Getting Nicknames, Don't call him Adrian, Neville beat Barrett as a replacement match for Bryan/Barrett. Non-title.

Pretty much it.

[#1-norm-fan]

Felt a little bad for Jojo having to say that.

[Fignuts]

What happened on the pre show?

Neville beat BNB

[Frank Drebin]

I wonder how many of these people backstage knew they were coming. All of the sudden two guys just start fighting next to you with a bunch of others standing around.

[Sixx]

Oh, good, I always thought we don't have enough oiled men kissing eachother's asses in the WWE.

[Droford]

Not enough limes

[Frank Drebin]

Harper isn't the kind of guy I'd think would know how to drive.

[Droford]

Extreme Arse Kissing

[Droford]

TIL a brogue is a low heeled boot

[Fignuts]

I like this. Hard hitting, brutal match

[Frank Drebin]

Didn't realize I was ten mins behind. Usually when I start a live event late and I hit "show from beginning" it still just takes me live. Not sure if they upgraded something but i dont remembet being able to do that. I'm glad I can go forward and back during a live show now.

[Frank Drebin]

There are pins in this match? If so, why do they keep talking like an actual arse kissing is gonna happen?

[Fignuts]

No way does Sheamus lose after his big return, but I can't see Ziggler kissing his "arse" either.

[#1-norm-fan]

Great fucking match.

[Fignuts]

what

[Droford]

Lol what

[#1-norm-fan]

Sheamus is probably just not gonna do it and be like "loldealwithit"

[Poit]

No way does Sheamus lose after his big return, but I can't see Ziggler kissing his "arse" either.

what

:lol:

[Droford]

Lol at the ref

Now you gotta kiss his ass

[Poit]

"Pucker up" chant :lol:

Time to show off some ass. :naughty:

[Volare]

Well whoever can't see the cheap shot coming is blind as all hell right about now.

[Droford]

Lol pucker up chant

[Droford]

Dolph really is Mr Ass 2k15

[Poit]

This is really dragging on.

[Dark One]

This ends with a Brogue Kick instead of Sheamus kissing his arse.

[Frank Drebin]

Yeah....get it over with

[Droford]

Lol Sheanus sign

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>As if they were actually going to follow through with the stipulation.</font>

[Dark One]

This ends with a Brogue Kick instead of Sheamus kissing his arse.

[Volare]

Sheamus is the winner :D lmao

[Kris P Lettus]

"you can use anything you can find in the streets of Chicago"

"He's got a kendo stick!!!"

[#1-norm-fan]

Really no reason why a heel should ever follow a stipulation like that. lol

[Droford]

King of the Ring?

[Mercenary]

King of the ring?

[Frank Drebin]

LOL, and those people who stood up because New Day said so, not expecting it to be them.

[Evil Vito]

Really no reason why a heel should ever follow a stipulation like that. lol

<font color=goldenrod>Which is why it was a shit stipulation IMO. It was obvious Sheamus was either gonna win or lose and force Ziggler to do it anyway. Made the result seem pretty inconsequential going in.

Loved the match itself, though.</font>

[Fignuts]

Fucking 3 count

[Dark One]

King of the Ring?

Was on the phone with my dad. What? What is this?

[Droford]

Jojo is apparentry a member of New Day

[Kris P Lettus]

Fuck New Day

Need a New N.O.D.

[Droford]

Was on the phone with my dad. What? What is this?

Supposedly the finals of the King of the Ring on the network Tuesday night.

Way to hype bringing the KOTR back

[Frank Drebin]

Cole's getting fired for saying "Langston"

[Kris P Lettus]

Even though she is built like a dude, Naddie Neidhardt is a smoke show.

[Poit]

Kicking to the cadence of that "New Day sucks" chant is amazing.

[Dark One]

Paul heyman needs a tag team called the Jew Day

This match is actually pretty awesome, new day gimmick aside.

The crowd helps, and you could argue they're biased because of the guys involved, but that hasn't really helped New Day in a long while--even with the new gimmick. So, it's crazy what happens when you let four guys who have a whole lot of talent and that the crowd has wanted to care about just do shit, and get time to do shit, right?

[Kris P Lettus]

That was a sweet ending

[Fignuts]

HORSESHIT

[Shadrick]

Something I've always wanted to see.

A heel kofi winning a title.

[Emperor Smeat]

:eek: New Day won.

I thought they sucked? Tag match was good overall.

[Maluco]

Fantastic match, if new day is going to work, that is how to do it. Great stuff from all four guys.

Cesaro should be a star by now, unbelievable strength

[Dark One]

Thank you to Daniel Bryan for being made of paper mache and letting this match get on the main show and get some time.

At no point up until a month ago would I have ever been able to even imagine New Day having the Tag Titles, let alone it having the potential to be great.

With one half of the Usos gone for a half a year, let these two teams go at it for a few months.

[Shadrick]

New Day! New Day!

[Maluco]

Also, hopefully this convinces the higher ups to have the tag titles on the main card. Great tag wrestling is so much fun to watch.

[Poit]

Woods carrying the title makes me hopeful they're going to Freebird this.

[KIRA]

I'll be goddamned they won

[Poit]

I'm kinda surprised those two made it back to the arena if they were fighting while driving.

[Dark One]

This is just the best.

I hope they end up in another car and leave again.

[Shadrick]

Kofi just won a title as a heel.

I'm just....in tears.

[Droford]

Previously on Extreme Rules

[Shadrick]

AND HERE COMES DEAN.

[Maluco]

Xavier Woods starting to show glimpses of a really funny heel character. Seems entertaining.

[Emperor Smeat]

Did Ambrose get lost .... nevermind

[Kris P Lettus]

Nice E-C-DUB chant

Think he was either 0-10 or 0-11 since the Shield split.

[Corndad]

When was Ambrose's last win on PPV?

[Sixx]

http://s3.postimg.org/lvugjur5v/newday.png

[Dark One]

When was Ambrose's last win on PPV?

When Bruno Sammartino was still champion.

[Dark One]

I have decently high expectations for this match. Rusev's been pretty good, and Cena has a track record of good to great gimmick matches with big monster heels.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>A lot less interested in this knowing it's one of those "touch all 4 corners" deals. They all end the same way really. Heel drags face around touching 3 corners, not realizing the face isn't unconscious and doing the same thing. Face finisher. Face touches final corner.</font>

[Fignuts]

ugh four corners shit is awful. Just have a no dq match chained together

[DaveWadding]

Kinda digging the lights on the corners.

[Dark One]

Rusev. Come on. Why would you climb up on the turnbuckle when someone can yank you off FROM ACROSS THE RING WITHOUT GETTING UP?

[Fignuts]

He was gonna do a shooting star too

[Emperor Smeat]

Commentators sound a bit bored with the chain match. Usually are more active when its a Cena match going on.

[Stickman]

Are most ppvs this boring?

[#1-norm-fan]

lol Weird ending.

[Fignuts]

boring match

best part of it left halfway through

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Well, at least that was a slightly different ending than I was expecting.</font>

[Dark One]

For those of you wondering, I was disappointed.

[Schlomey]

This PPV sucks.

[Fignuts]

This PPV sucks.

Wouldn't go that far.

Tag match and Kiss my arse match were good.

[Fignuts]

So Roman is batman now?

[Dark One]

Hoping for six minutes straight of "WE WANT PAIGE" chants.

[Dark One]

Wouldn't go that far.

Tag match and Kiss my arse match were good.

Also Ambrose + Harper's NEVERENDING BRAWL.

[Dark One]

What the fuck is this?

You're not Sasha Banks. Fuck on off.

[Droford]

It's Sasha B..wait a second

[Corndad]

Oh Lord Naomi

[Dark One]

Let's see if we get competent Naomi or Jackie Gayda Naomi.

[#1-norm-fan]

So now that the Bellas are seemingly faces again, if Brie reveals that she was only pretending to be on the same page with her sister to get revenge for her being a heartless bitch to her would that make Brie the face or Nikki? Because she'd be turning on her evil sister but she joined her evil sister and then turned not evil along with her...

...

[Dark One]

Also, the previous prediction of 6 CM Punk chants for the over/under will be correct for this match.

[Corndad]

Her shoes are changing colors. Ok.

[Droford]

The lights going out would be cool

[Dark One]

Good.

I guess.

#WeWantPaige

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>I'd love to have sex with Nikki Bella. That just about sums up my thoughts on that match.</font>

[Fignuts]

lol "OOOOOOOOOOOOOO"

[Ruien]

Why ruien Rusev and Lana? They work so well together damnit. Ruse needs Lana for Christmas sakes and he's over as all hell.

[Dark One]

If you guys don't hear from me in 10-20 minutes, assume I died from the PTSD episode and/or seizure that this match is about to induce.

Big Show putting the table back was funny.

I want them to use the tub of water bottles & sports drinks as a weapon.

[Ruien]

Feel like the Superman Punch is being devalued a ton lately.

[Dark One]

Feel like the Superman Punch is being devalued a ton lately.

That's because it's a jumping punch.

[Dark One]

I think I may manage to survive this, although I can feel the darkness closing in.

My last request is that someone who is stronger than I am times action versus standing around/set-up time in this match. I'd wager my entire estate on it being at least 30/70 if not 20/80.

[Corndad]

It's your note pad lol

[KIRA]

Trying to get Roman support by having him be gutsy and just not quit...

Cena 2.0

Has been activated

[KIRA]

a big fat phoenix

[KIRA]

This match needs to end LOL at people just refusing to side with Roman

[Ruien]

Nice spear. awesome finish

[Poit]

Ugh, I almost picked "buried under the announce table" for Tipsters.

[Dark One]

Trying to get Roman support by having him be gutsy and just not quit...

Cena 2.0

Incorrect.

Trapping under announcers' table is the new duct tape.

Cena 2.0 now activated.

[Dark One]

Nice spear. awesome finish

If only it were the finish.

[Fignuts]

That was a really good last man standing match

[Emperor Smeat]

Feel like the Superman Punch is being devalued a ton lately.

Only against Big Show though. WWE for some odd reason thinks Big Show's punch needs more protection than Reigns' punch.

[KIRA]

He stole Cenas playbook.

[Maluco]

Not a fan of either, but you have to give them props, that was entertaining

[KIRA]

Hey cole said the same thing about Kpfi once "I think we learned alot tonight about....."

And none of them will never make it on the main roster

[KIRA]

BRAY WYATT BO DALLAS ALLIANCE!

[KIRA]

REALLY?

[Kris P Lettus]

Is Bray not on this PPV?

Wtf

[Frank Drebin]

Feel like they just missed an opportunity for a somewhat pro Bo crowd to join him in one of these call and response things where everyone raises their arms to "Bolieve"

[Emperor Smeat]

Poor Ryback. Pleading to be fed more because the WWE cut back on catering recently.

[#1-norm-fan]

They're really stretching this Rusev vs Cena feud. Jesus.

[Frank Drebin]

Nothing like telling the crowd that the title match they just saw was pointless since they'll have another match with a "better" stip at the next PPV.

[Droford]

If Rusev spoke no English he couldn't lose an I quit match

[Maluco]

Surely rusev can't lose a third time to Cena? That would be a massive mistake and is needless

[KIRA]

I hope Rollins has figured out a better move than that shitty DDT thing.

[Frank Drebin]

They're really stretching this Rusev vs Cena feud. Jesus.

Would you rather Cena chase the world title?

[#1-norm-fan]

Surely rusev can't lose a third time to Cena? That would be a massive mistake and is needless

Lana throws in the towel and they finally split.

Or Lana throws in the towel and they keep stalling on the split for another month.

[screech]

Surely rusev can't lose a third time to Cena? That would be a massive mistake and is needless

Yeah I was thinking this. Rusev needs to win one of these, right?

[Dark One]

I hope Rollins has figured out a better move than that shitty DDT thing.

It's called the Three-Handled Family Run Like a Bitch out of the Cage While Sixteen People Interfere.

It's a working title.

[Droford]

Seth should hit Orton with an RKO to get dqed

Then start using the RKO as his new finisher.

[#1-norm-fan]

Would you rather Cena chase the world title?

Actually, yes. The US champion being so much more over than the world champ is kinda weird.

[KIRA]

Have people forgotten Orton has a second arguably better less visually impressive finisher?

Hey, some shades of Classic JBL adding some random back story about leg cramps to add some depths to the guys/match.

Well hell. Read that like Rusev never went over in the feud. Carry on.

[Volare]

So if Orton hit a reverse RKO...as in a jumping neck breaker, that technically wouldn't be the same as a regular would it?

Well hell. Read that like Rusev never went over in the feud. Carry on.

Based on what we know about rollins he didn't damage anything

A pedigree huh

Alrighty

[Dark One]

I hope Orton goes full Eugene and just starts spamming random people's finishes.

[Corndad]

Orton should just start doing random finishers lol

[KIRA]

Yea cause TRIPLE h wasn't the one hitting it
pfft

[Frank Drebin]

Orton using the "steal finisher" ability from the 2k games.

[KIRA]

Kane is like "fuck this shit"

[Emperor Smeat]

Nice of Kane to roll the unconscious body of Rollins over Orton. Always thinking for the team, well sort of.

[Poit]

You get a chokeslam, and you get a chokeslam, everybody gets a chokeslam!

[Poit]

Wait... shouldn't one of them lose for using the RKO?

[Droford]

Ha I called it sorta

[Corndad]

The hell lol

[KIRA]

I wouldn't mind if this was a thing with Kane just chokeslamming Rollins then dragging him into a cover

[Volare]

MAJOR SWERVES!!

[Dark One]

Seth should hit Orton with an RKO to get dqed

Then start using the RKO as his new finisher.

They should have gone with that.

But they didn't. The went halfway.

[#1-norm-fan]

Who cares if the RKO was banned period or if it was just banned for Orton. I assume even if it was banned for everyone, Rollins would be DQed and keep the title anyway. HUGE CONTROVERSY.

[Stickman]

lol at Kane ripping his pants

[Volare]

Aww shit major controversy after a PPV on Raw....just like old times!!

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>lol what a disjointed main event</font>

[Droford]

They should have gone with that.

But they didn't. The went halfway.

They can still go with Rollins using the RKO as his finisher though

[Dark One]

Third title reign for Abeyance confirmed.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Orton wants to have a cage match to keep out the Authority: Authority interferes anyway

Kane to be gatekeeper: ignores his duties and goes into business for himself

RKO banned: Rollins wins match with RKO

WWE stipulations matter about as much as points on Whose Line Is It Anyway.</font>

Seriously, the only CONTROVERSY coming from that match is the controversy of WWE being so inept that they don't really know what the rules of their world title match are going into the world title match. I don't think that qualifies under the official rules of SUPER DRAMATIC CONTROVERSY in entertainment.

Wait... shouldn't one of them lose for using the RKO?

RKO stands for Randall Keith Orton. It's not an RKO when Seth Rollins does it. It's just a diamond cutter. Thus winner and still champion Seth Rollins.

<font color=goldenrod>There were some good matches on this show. But when most of them likely won't lead anywhere of importance, it's tough to care at all. Haven't watched Raw in 3 weeks (which for a habitual viewer like me is actually a record) and have my doubts I'll watch it before the next PPV. You basically miss nothing by skipping on TV anyway.

I've found that NXT, Lucha Underground, and the Network back catalog is plenty to satisfy my wrestling fix.</font>

Thanks Jack Tunney.

Left the replay on in the background, and after the announcers' "WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?" reaction to Harper and Ambrose brawling into a car and leaving the arena, next year Extreme Rules should be called WWE Extreme Confusion: The Night No One Knows What the Stipulations mean!

At least it wasn't as bad as the Russian Chain match changing the rules during the match itself especially at the end.

[Ruien]

I don't think they changed the rules during that match? You just had to touch all 4 buckles without losing momentum.

[Emperor Smeat]

Isn't it you have to touch all 4 corners without the other guy breaking the chain?

Rusev and Cena kept going back and forth touching corners which would mean the chain was broken or it had to be rest.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

No, just keep momentum. They weren't stopped by each other.

[Ruien]

Was the chain broke? I thought it was just long enough for them to both reach the corners.
