The Champ made Benoit tap out which was sortof a very late revenge as he had tapped out to Benoit way back in 2003. Cena doesn't deserve such a push over. Actually Benoit should be holding Cena's title and vice versa.

Actually, yes. I was disgusted! The master of submissions (at least in the WWE at the moment) tapped to a weak looking STF. How could they do this to Benoit?

That was the moment I turned off. What appeared to be a long winded and nothing happening programme made me almost sick by the fact that the STFU made Benoit tap. I don't really recall him tapping out and losing a macth since he's been in the WWE. Not even when he was feuding with the Rock and his dodgy sharpshooter.
I'm not sure I can be bothered to tune in next week after that trash tonight. |

Having Benoit job by pinfall is one thing... Making him tap is a secret vendetta. Benoit must have slapped Steph's ass or something.

For the record, I tend to think of submission finishes to be worth 2 pinfall finishes, and a submission against a guy like Benoit to be worth about 10. Does Cena need it? He's already on top. The sheep already think he's the best thing since sliced bread. A move like that just pisses the smart fans off. For the little bit that Cena went over, Benoit's image took a nosedive. The irony of it is that Benoit taps more than most others because of his tough image, so in the end he looks like a bigger pussy than most. So no, I wasn't being serious when I said he probably slapped Steph's ass. But compare a hard-nosed Benoit to someone with a less tough image like Carlito. Benoit has tapped dozens of times while other guys have hardly ever tapped at all. In that respect, it seems as though the bookers have something against Benoit, making him tap when it's not even necessary. And to help you in your communication skills, it's more productive to explain your reasoning when being critical of others rather than saying something along the lines of "That's pretty stupid." It makes you look a little ignorant yourself. |

Benoit tapped to the Rock once, I think the ref was out though. Tapped to Angle a bunch of times during their feud, and to Jericho.
Though we can all agree: Cattle Mutilation >>>>> Ankle Lock, Liontamer, even the Rock's sharpshooter >>>>>>>>>>>>> ass punch >>>>> STFU |

Including to midcarders. Not to mention to a good amount of WWE champions. So where's the problem in it, technically speaking?
Of course I agree that I don't like it, but I realize what it is and see it as what it's meant to do. Make your WWE champion heading into Wrestlemania get a rub off your US champion. It's not like it kills Benoit. Why is it okay to you when The Rock and Kurt Angle make him tap as champion, or better yet when midcarders make him tap in midcard matches? But when Cena does it, the WWE fucked up and its "not logical". It's for the same reason now as it was then, to put over the champion big because Benoit's over too. Just because you don't like Cena doesn't really mean it's a different situation. I dislike it too but I'm not gonna dellude myself as to what it really is, and make the argument that it was okay the other times, or the millions of times a champion has made a strong wrestler tap or lay down, but now it's bad. |

yea seriously Destor. "He can lay down but he CAN'T TAP".
![]() So in kayfabe it's all the same, in kayfabe it's painful as hell and dominant and up there if not superior to those other moves. Sorry, thats the way it is. I don't like it and you don't have to like it either but please don't say markish shit like that. |

HE'S BEING BURIED!!!!! If you're upset with him jobbing to the WWE champion in a road to wrestlemania match, just wait til wrestlemania. He's gonna job to MVP in the midcard. Rant about that if you got a problem with this.

Yes, now THAT sucks. I'm just pointing out that theres MUCH worse things that can happen than lose to the WWE champion superman in a main event leading up to Wrestlemania. And that will be evident in 20 days.

why not LOL at Destor? What I'm saying is true bro, I didn't say I liked it. I just said on the booking side of things thats the way it is.
Seriously dude, I hate Cena too but don't attack me for telling it as it is from a booking standpoint. Why would you refer to me negatively for what I said, when hbk2k and Destor agreed? Last edited by Jeritron; 03-20-2007 at 02:00 PM. |

Look. Chris Benoit isn't selling WrestleMania, John Cena is. So you can either book the way TNA would, do a bunch of run-ins, end it in a lame DQ because "you have to protect Benoit", and not get anybody over and render it meaningless, or can make the guy responsible for selling the show look like a million dollars on Raw and actually get somebody over, when the truth is nobody will remember the match in three months anyway. It's common sense, it's the right thing to do, get over it. Benoit's bulletproof - he's going to rebound just fine if they need him to.

The difference is it was The Rock and we liked him, so there was no outcry, because even though Rock is no technical master either, he was a mark favorite and entertaining as hell. So since we don't like Cena, we begin to fault him and the creative for things they've been doing along with wrestlers in his role. |

Honestly, the STFU is being booked as a legit finisher for Cena, even if it doesn't look good. As a finishing maneuver, it's got to actually finish matches. Cena's going into the main event of WWE's biggest show of the year. Benoit isn't. Therefore, it makes sense as a booker to make Cena look like the better man. Am I happy with the decision? No. Why? Simple: because I like Chris Benoit, and I don't like John Cena. I don't need to dance around it with other excuses. |
