WWE EXTREME RULES 2018 *** FOUR STIPULATION MATCHES *** OFFICIAL THREAD

[KIRA]

Wait, has Dolph been wearing full tights for a while? I picture Dolph and I see MMA tights.

Yea a while

[Jordan]

Love it when Cole comes off like a journalist with history and facts relevant to the moment. Commentary is everything.

[Jordan]

:wtf: @ the first fall. No breaks between falls as well?

[Dark One]

So it’s going to be one of THOSE Ironman matches.

[Jordan]

Ah fuck this crowd.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Except AJ's likeable and he can wrestle unlike Cena and he's not a glorified mid carder like Triple H

I know all that. I don't hate or even dislike AJ as champ, far from it. I guess maybe I'm just holding on to the motto/tagline/ideology of SDL since Brand Split 2.0 started as "The Land of Opportunity".

I just keep hoping against hope that WWE will show me, on either brand or more preferably both (but good luck with that with Vince still in charge) of building up new guys from NXT or even ones just acquired and slapped on either brand as stars they can build the foundation for some kind of future for them.

[Jordan]

I'm no pro but Dolph needs to get some heat right now.

[Savio]

This is like Germany vs Brazil all over again.

[Jordan]

WOW 2-0 okay you got my attention.

[Jordan]

This is like Germany vs Brazil all over again.

:y::y:

[Droford]

Lol it should be 4 now

[Dark One]

I do like the ol eat a DQ to beat the shit out of a dude to score multiple falls angle.

[Jordan]

Wow this is crazy. He's gotta take another fall from him!

[KIRA]

Okay I think I see what he's doing

[Jordan]

Wow a fucking friend.

[Droford]

So dolph doesn't immediately go for another pin? Ugh

[DAMN iNATOR]

Triple H should counter-troll by playing the female voice that says "TEN." during each minute when it hits __:10. Also at the 10:00 mark.

[Jordan]

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

[KIRA]

Yep I was right Drew beat the crap out of him so it makes it a lot easier for Dolph to catch up so he takes a few Ls in order for it to be easier for him to make pinfalls later

[Dark One]

The Golden State Rollinses blew a 3-0 lead

[Dark One]

Match is gonna end 73-72

[Jordan]

That uppercut, shoulder buster and Ziz-Zag combo was awesome.

[Savio]

With how this had been booked they should have made it an hour long.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Dunno why but
7nBWylEI6rw
sense is tingling...

[Droford]

Dolph should employ the tv title time limit title defense strategy

[Jordan]

I wish this was actually 1HR Iron Man.

[slik]

I missed two of Seth's falls bc someone was talking to me

[Triple A]

Why do everyone's elbows keep bleeding suddenly

[Dark One]

With how this had been booked they should have made it an hour long.

They already can’t keep the crowd focused on the match. I’m not sure that stretching this match out by another 30 minutes would be a good idea.

[Jordan]

He has the arm under the chin he should be out in seconds.

[slik]

I wish the crowd would stop counting down constantly, it's agonizing

[Triple A]

crowd countdown so incredibly annoying

[Savio]

I like the crowd counting, lolThey already can’t keep the crowd focused on the match. I’m not sure that stretching this match out by another 30 minutes would be a good idea.

Yeah but 7 falls so soon?

[Triple A]

Def some people in the crowd who are counting down from :59 for each and every minute as people next to them suffer

[slik]

Is this a new ref?

[Jordan]

They could do a tie and go into over time for a good 5-10 and really get some heat.

[Jordan]

Is this a new ref?

I have no fact on this but it looks like Chioda's son.

[GD]

Crowd is getting on my nerves.

[Dark One]

Going to assume they took the clock off the tron for a bit to get the crowd to stop but had to put it back up for Rollins to look at it and THAT is why the crowd popped.

[Jordan]

How does that rip chord knee not knock EVERYONE out?

[Dark One]

Royal Rumble going to be canceled due to Vince McMahon banning all clocks

[Jordan]

It would've been really cool if the crowd had the collective genius to actually count down and be like "5, 4, 3, 2, 1 .... 11 MORE MINUTES" "5, 4, 3 , 2, 1 ... "10 MORE MINUTES"

[Droford]

7 falls in 10 minutes lol

[DAMN iNATOR]

Dolph should employ the tv title time limit title defense strategy

Kurt could just come out and demand the match continue in OT with show time remaining though. Would be doubly genius since this is not traditional PPV but rather on their own Network so "time remaining" could also be made whoever gets the next point in order to allow for any possible overrun.

[Jordan]

God I love that superlex falcon arrow combo.

[KIRA]

Ziegler literally kicking out of everything

[KIRA]

God I love that superlex falcon arrow combo.

:drool: I know it's gorgeous

[Droford]

Sudden death overtime

[Dark One]

They’re going to do no-overtime / champion retains in a tie finish.

[DAMN iNATOR]

OK the old heel wins via heel tactics with literally :01 left trope.

That or a draw which barring OT being invoked means DZ retains IC.

[Savio]

Tekno Team 2000 returns when the clock hits 0

[Jordan]

They actually could end up going close to an hour if they wanted to go til 11pm.

[DAMN iNATOR]

They’re going to do no-overtime / champion retains in a tie finish.

Or the hey look champ gets a fall with 1 second left thing. I mean, oh, your thing. That. ^^^

[Droford]

Lol

[Savio]

guess Seth isn't so smart.

[KIRA]

Next pay-per-view they'll have a 5 Second Iron Man match

[Savio]

Let's go to penalty kicks!

[rez]

lol

[Dark One]

Mick Foley would have given them a tag title opportunity

[Droford]

Lol that was stupid

[Savio]

lol

[DAMN iNATOR]

Kurt your job is not done yet.

[KIRA]

Kurt Angle is such a god-awful general manager I don't understand it he should be pure gold

[slik]

SummerSlam predictions:

Lashley vs Lesnar?

Ronda vs Alexa Bliss

Seth vs Dolph?

[Droford]

Gotta have 20 mimuted for talking sma..the post show

[Dark One]

This company makes it its mission to make things as complicated and clusterfucky as possible.

If there’s a simple way to do things, they will book seven flights and ten taxis to get there.

[Jordan]

That left a bad taste in my mouth but I didn't hate it.

[KIRA]

If it's not contrived and overly complicated it's not worth doing that's the WWE motto

[DaveWadding]

What a shitty ending to a shitty PPV.

[DaveWadding]

I could have been watching Omega and Naito

[slik]

softspoken Bob Lashley calling Roman a warrior who deserves the best in life on the post show

[Jordan]

SummerSlam predictions:

Lashley vs Lesnar?

Ronda vs Alexa Bliss

Seth vs Dolph?

I am thinking it will be a Bobby/Brock/Roman for the Uni... AJ vs Bryan or Joe, probably a 3 way with Hardy/Orton/Naka, and I guess perhaps Dean/Seth vs Dolph/Drew? I dunno. I don't see Bobby/Brock as a Summerslam quality main event.

[DAMN iNATOR]

SummerSlam predictions:

Lashley vs Lesnar?

Ronda vs Alexa Bliss

Seth vs Dolph?

Agreed, but I think we see what happened tonight as leading to Dean finally returning to be in his buddy's corner at SummerSlam, so that Drew can't screw Seth over or whatever.

I mean, dude's GOTTA be due back like imminently, right?

[slik]

@Dave Dangerous Wadding

Ibushi vs ZSJ is amazing, you should watch it

[Dark One]

Off to watch some G1. See you guys tomorrow maybe. Maybe.

Asuka needs to come out now and beat the everliving shit out of Carmella

[rockman725]

Don't know what the point was of making that the main event if the belt wasn't gonna flip, but I'm glad they didn't flip it.

[owenbrown]

Dolph Ziggler needs to fuck off

[DAMN iNATOR]

Why? Roman lost...CLEAN. He (no pun intended) literally has no dog in the fight, big or otherwise. You drop the ball, you deal with the consequences. You don't get to get away with whining and crying and bitching and moaning and throwing a hissy fit 13,789 ways to 5 Sundays from now about how IT'S NOT FAIR I NEVER GET TO PLAY WITH THE CHAMPIONSHIP! THE OTHER BIG KIDS ARE ALL SO MEAN, DADDY KURT! MAKE THEM SHARE! WAH! Someone needs to hammer it home to Roman that life isn't always fair and when you blow a chance to climb up a rung, you go to the back of the line and wait your turn again if you ever get one and EARN another shot, ESPECIALLY when you lose cleanly. Entitled attitudes in today's day and age is one thing I am so fed up with. Nobody seemingly wants to earn anything, GOODNESS FORBID, and it's ridiculous and it's pathetic.

[#1-norm-fan]

Did Asuka really lose again to Carmella... in under 5 minutes? LOL

[slik]

I think it was like 8 minutes maybe

but yeah, Carmella threw her into the sharkcage 'knocking her out' and scored the 1-2-3

[Tom Guycott]

I just caught a Spanish feed clip of a couple of the matches. It sounded like one of them called Shinsuke the "Huevos Assassin", and now, I can't let that go.

[Tom Guycott]

I truly detest wrestlers in WWE wearing street clothes in the ring.

Cena and his dumbass "jorts" literally the worst offender ever of this.

Meh. Depends on the person/gimmick. Worked for Raven or Curtis Hughes.

What gets me, though, is when the guy is clearly wearing ring gear underneath. What's the point? Pick one.

[Tom Guycott]

I kinda picture it being something like:

Randy to Creative: I'm healed & cleared to return. What you got for me?

Creative to Randy: Well, nothing. Go out there and crush Jeff's nuts. We'll figure it out later.

Knowing wwe that is probably on point.

I think you two are giving WWE too much creative credit. It was likely more like:

Randy to Creative: I'm healed & cleared to return. What you got for me?

Creative to Randy: Can't you see we're eating? Can't do two things at once! Just... just go figure something out, we'll write around it.

[Tom Guycott]

I see reigns titan tron video no longer says "believe that", never knew wtf that was referring to anyway.

They were just trying to find something for him to latch onto as a catchphrase and that was just as stupid as anyting I'm glad they dropped it

He was originally booked to become Hokage. "Plans change."

[Jordan]

Meh. Depends on the person/gimmick. Worked for Raven or Curtis Hughes.

Corbin and Ambrose bother me the most. I don't care about Cena's shorts or Braun or Kevin Owens that all makes sense to me. Raven made sense, Dreamer made sense but Dean Ambrose to this day bothers me and no there is probably no going back.... And Corbin's vest and shirt is so constricting I don't know why anyone would ever choose to wear that in an athletic contest.

[Stickman]

I completely forgot about the iron man match. After the true main event (wwe championship) I assumed it was a wrap. Feel like I didn’t miss much

[Emperor Smeat]

Just finished watching a replay of this after missing out originally from a nap that lasted way longer than it should have.

Skipped the pre-show but going to assume El Idolo was great.

Legit surprised the RAW Tag Title opened the show. Guess wanted RAW really wanted their own Slater & Rhyno moment for the tag division. Probably the most dire division in the entire WWE.

Corbin-Balor was decent.

Apparently refs are terrible at frisking people considering the amount of stuff Ellsworth had on him in the cage. Whatever was left of Asuka's aura as a star is gone now.

:lol: at a pre-match low blow by Nakamura. Wonder if that set the record for shortest ever US title match. Between Nakamura's low blow and Orton's stomp, not a good night for Jeff's balls.

:eek: Owens beat Strowman. Sure it involved him getting chuck off the cage and got broken in half but still a win in the end. The cage match has been the best match so far tonight.

"We Want Kane" chants has to be up there among biggest WWE surprises of 2018. Smackdown Tag Title match was good but nothing special in the end.

:lol: at B Team trying to recruit Reigns to the group.

Reigns-Lashey was decent. Still don't care at all about this feud. Also a bit funny Lashley beat Reigns with a spear.

RAW Women's title match was meh. Ronda botching a bunch of spots was a bit worrying although probably due to her rushing things. Between the main roster and NXT, none of the current Women champs are that compelling.

Really surprised the WWE title match wasn't the main event considering the issues with WWE Ironman matches. RuRu vs Styles was really great overall. Kind of a bad sign it took until almost the end of the event for a great match to happen.

1st 10 minutes of this Ironman match has been a mess. Same for the match's flow with none of the scoring feeling special. :lol: at the Rumble countdown chants. Holy shit there is still another 15 minutes left, not sure if I can take watching anymore of this. :lol: at more countdown chants and at least the crowd is having some fun since this match hasn't been. Juts like almost every other WWE Ironman match, this was a big dud outside the last few minutes. :lol: at the anti-climatic ending from the restart.

[Mr. Nerfect]

This is the crowd the WWE has cultivated. Do not blame those jack-offs for existing in their natural state watching a product that only appeals to them.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Actually, blame the fans, but this is very much WWE's fault too.

[KIRA]

He was originally booked to become Hokage. "Plans change."

I heard Rumblings about some blonde Ramen loving jackass with a serious man crush beating him to it.

[slik]

WWE is obsessed with lighting the crowd and filming their reactions non-stop, they created the 'crowd is the show' mentality.

Please keep dark arenas w some fog instead...NXT and NJPW crowds look better in the dark.

[Mr. Nerfect]

It’s an aspect I never really considered until recently, when Cornette did a piece on it. Focus should be on the action in the ring, and not on idiots folding their arms showing you how not over it is.

[Destor]

This is the crowd the WWE has cultivated. Do not blame those jack-offs for existing in their natural state watching a product that only appeals to them.

Fans thinking theyre smarter than the product isnt their fault. Thats just wrestling fans. They think theyre smart and they want you to know about it.

don't know how anyone can enjoy a show watching with this lens. I mean... if someone stinks I won't "chant" or make noise. But if something is good I'll get on my feet and clap. Fuck getting myself over.

[Innovator]

KO should be set up for a face run after coming back from the dead last night. Probably not, but he deserves a nice face run where he doesn't die.

[Destor]

The thing is they dont enjoy it. The come on TPWW and let us know just how much they dont enjoy it. What they enjoy is being in the smart kids club and they like that wayyyyy more than they like ANY wrestling.

[Evil Vito]

Just scrolling through the results and this thread. Think I made the right call watching night 2 of the G1 instead.

[#1-norm-fan]

The fans are obnoxious and they can choose not to be obnoxious... But WWE definitely helped cultivate that mindset. They don't get off without any blame. The internet helped create a certain type of wrestling fan and WWE, as opposed to trying to put forth a product that gets those more passionate fans involved in the story being told in the ring, just welcomes it and even highlights it a lot of the time.

People who pay to come see your show should be able to respond however they want. If they're responding by making their own entertainment and basically ignoring what you're giving them, there's a problem. And it's on you to fix it.

[Destor]

Cant be fixed. They could give them the product they want and they would spit it out. Its like trying to feed a 3 year old. The audience does not want to enjoy the product and would actively refuse anything theyre served.

[Big Vic]

AJ/Rusev had a good reaction.

[#1-norm-fan]

Cant be fixed. They could give them the product they want and they would spit it out. Its like trying to feed a 3 year old. The audience does not want to enjoy the product and would actively refuse anything theyre served.

If it's gotten to the point where the product is unfixable, it's still the fault of the company putting out the product. WWE doesn't get a special pass. In any form of entertainment it's up to the company to get people invested in what they're showing and if they can't it's not the fault of the people.

[#1-norm-fan]

And even if you believe that WWE fans just live to hate the product and will do so no matter what, why is that mindset specific to WWE fans? That theory just lends more credence to the idea that WWE has fostered the mindset.

Is it more likely that sometime in the early 2000's millions and millions of wrestling fans just randomly became angry, bitter and impossible to please all at the same time or that the company changed and stopped giving them something they could enjoy and turned them into what we see now?

[#1-norm-fan]

It's like if you shot your best friend's mother and then kept trying to be friends with him and whenever he's like "No. Fuck off. I hate you." you're just like "Damn. You're clearly just determined to hate me no matter what. Your fault. Not mine."

That's pretty much society as a whole, since the internet took off.

[Emperor Smeat]

It wasn't that bad...

Which WCW show is he referring to?

Probably none specifically and more like mid to late era WCW where nothing on PPV really mattered and were mainly just fillers or throwaways for Nitro. WWE already has this problem going on for years.

Only notable stuff from last night was a joke team winning the RAW tag titles and Owens winning a cage by getting tossed out even though the main reason for the match was for Owens to not be able to escape from Braun.

[Sixx]

Errr, whywas Dolph Ziggler in the main event?

[Mr. Nerfect]

Fans thinking theyre smarter than the product isnt their fault. Thats just wrestling fans. They think theyre smart and they want you to know about it.

I blame the company more for driving away casual fans that outnumber the hardcores left. By making themselves a niche product, they've put themselves in the safekeeping of those fans.

[Mr. Nerfect]

don't know how anyone can enjoy a show watching with this lens. I mean... if someone stinks I won't "chant" or make noise. But if something is good I'll get on my feet and clap. Fuck getting myself over.

I question why these people go to these shows myself. If they didn't go, there wouldn't be enough fans to fill the hard camera side. They give Vince McMahon their money and then whinge. I'm all for whinging, just stop voting for this shitty product.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Errr, whywas Dolph Ziggler in the main event?

(Whispering): QUIET! You want Vince to come across that post and decide he should put Roman in every PPV main event from now on?!

Anyway, they'd already done AJ/Rusev earlier because he's forgotten that the championship bearing your company's name should probably be more important than a "World Heavyweight" or "Universal" title, and Brock wasn't defending his belt on the show, so RAW's 2nd most important championship got to main. I won't spoil anything if you haven't seen the show and want to by some chance but it was an excellent match to end on. It was the first time since Backlash (2001) that the Intercontinental Championship sin evented a PPV, with the only other time previous to that was SummerSlam (1992).

[Mr. Nerfect]

And WrestleMania VI.
