1 page and a comment for a WWE PPV… record?

Lmaoooo wtf was that Balor spot

#1-norm-fan 09-27-2021 10:11 AM

I went looking for a longer version of that Balor spot to see if there was a context that made it better.

Apparently he was dead and then the lights went red and his body started convulsing in rhythm to a heartbeat. Resurrected he jumped back up, started destroying Reigns like a man possessed and climbed on the top rope for his finisher. The rope snapped and he fell, hurt his leg and lost. That sum it up about right?

Also, did Reigns really mask up mid-match in order to fight in the crowd? Lol

drave 09-27-2021 10:39 AM

god damn thats fucking stupid if that's really what happened......




Going to open the peacock stream and find out

drave 09-27-2021 10:46 AM

Yeah...... fucking stupid

drave 09-27-2021 10:47 AM

So of course the Uso's came down to interfere. They all beat down the demon, he started to come back, got speared and then everyone is just lying there.


The red lights start, and Balor starts flopping on his stomach like a fish. The demon rawr noise happened, he popped up, went on a tear, fell off the top rope when it "broke".

Fignuts 09-27-2021 11:14 AM

You can literally play the curb your enthusiasm music after the lights go back to normal and it would be perfect.

Gerard 09-27-2021 11:21 AM

Didn't even realise this was on, but unsurprisingly...doesn't seem like i missed much.

Whoa man, WAY OFF!

His heart beating led to the music and red lights, dont be ridiculous!

Mr. Nerfect 09-27-2021 05:32 PM

Hahaha, this sounds almost as ridiculous as AEW Revolution did earlier this year. This is a fucking race to the bottom.

And yeah, WWE doesn’t generate much conversation in certain parts of the internet. How weird is it to think it is several times more popular than its nearest competition? Just fucking ice cold, baby.

The mask moment might have actually been worse than the goofy ending for Demon Balor's loss.

At least with Demon Balor, the whole ending sequence came off way more comedic than it should have been but had Balor won, it also would have been a pretty cool and unique ending to a WWE match. Worst that could happen is a lot of ridicule towards Balor and WWE over it.

With Reigns, WWE knowingly and purposely put his health at a potential big risk by booking an unnecessary brawl in the crowd portion for his match. His health battles with leukemia means his immune system is at a bigger risk for COVID than someone like Balor and if the Delta variant has shown, even being vaccinated doesn't fully resolve those concerns. The moment he had to go grab a mask for that part of the match is the moment where WWE messed up royally with their booking of that whole match.

While I agree in theory, there is no way Roman was MADE to do that. If Roman didn't want to fight in the crowd, he wouldn't have. The better argument would be that WWE should have put their foot down and told Roman he couldn't do the crowd spot for his own good, for the exact reasons you said.

Imagining the first time Hulk Hogan ever Hulked Up. He’s been beaten to oblivion by the dastardly heels. There’s no way he could possible survive. But what’s this? Real American is playing over the speakers! Hulk’s body is convulsing with each Rick Derringer guitar strum! He’s now up and fighting back! He’s found this extra gear we didn’t know existed! His adrenaline is pumping and he’s impervious to pain! He’s fought back against the villains and now he’s ready to hit his finishing move. He bounces against the ropes and hits his big leg drop, but oh no he landed on his bottom too hard and he eats the three count. Well, shoot.

I'd assume he didn't want to make a stink about that issue since it didn't play a role in the match's finish and the mask being something that was demanded by him and/or Creative in order for that brawl stuff to happen. Way more instances of top stars and people getting big pushes just going along with whatever bad ideas WWE came up with than the reverse over the years because they didn't want to piss off Vince.

Now if he was out in the crowd with no mask and it was revealed later that him and/or Creative had turned down the mask requirement, then whoever was responsible for that would have deserved all the backlash against them.

#1-norm-fan 09-27-2021 07:24 PM

It’s more puzzling to me that a crowd brawl was deemed so important that the goofy pause for Roman to put a mask on in the middle of a fight HAD to happen.

I was trying earlier to put this in a “demonic horror movie character” analogy but I’m not enough of a horror buff to think of a good one. This works.

Its like when they took the 4 leaf clover off the box after 60 years, and the Leprechaun just popped right up and started killing fools!

Sure, but this is Roman. This guy gave up a Mania title match, took 5 months off, and was the new champ within 1 week of returning. Roman has the stroke to punch Nick Khan in the face and not even get fined!

To be fair, during those 5 months, he completely redefined himself from the Top Babyface to the Top Heel. He found the missing pieces of the puzzle and upped his game considerably. What we see out of him today is what Vince McMahon saw in him years ago.

The average fan doesn't care about workrate. But he can work at a high level. He tells some of the best stories in the ring. He is one of the best talkers. Roman looks like an ass kicker, and has no problem wearing a face mask while proving that he is that kind of guy. Dude drew the biggest gate in Smackdown History. People want to see him, and it doesn't matter if he's wrestling Jey Uso or John Cena. He has Paul Heyman in his corner, one of the greatest managers in the history of wrestling, and Roman is still the best part of this act. He carries himself like he's the biggest star in wrestling, because he is. To the point where #2-#5 could be any combination of Big E, Lashley, Walter, Omega, Danielson, Okada, or McIntyre, and that competition is much closer than #2 and #1.

And not only would he not get fined, but Nick Khan would actually thank him for the punch.

Damian Rey 2.0 09-29-2021 01:16 AM

Roman can do whatever the fuck he wants at this point. Vince has no leverage over him anymore. If he decides to walk unless he gets the biggest contract in the history of the business, Vince would absolutely pay him. This is what happens when a star hits his ceiling and there’s a viable alternative that can legitimately afford said star.

Hahahahaha...

I’d like to see that.

That could be a whole gimmick for somebody.
It would probably get over too because it actually is remotely interesting.

Seanny One Ball 09-29-2021 10:57 AM

Every time The Demon powers up he botches the finish and loses.
Cue the Curb theme tune.

Thank you Tony Falk.

LMFAOOOOOOOOO


I heard that gif (and that's with a hard G, fockers)

Mr. Nerfect 10-01-2021 05:26 PM

They would have protected Balor more if he had just eaten a clean Spear.
