Battleground 2014 was either an extremely subpar RAW or 1999-2001 style WCW PPV. Take your pick.

That ppv was poo poo and I'm glad that I'm not "really" paying for it since I consider this $10 a month poo poo to just be me paying for wrestlemania in monthly installments. Title should've been WWE Battleground: meh

I have a feeling Dean couldn't figure out how to open the trunk from inside quick enough which is why Seth was looking around for a good minute.

Anyways, tell me why Jericho going over Bray was a good thing and why I should be excited for the eternal battle between the Wyatts/Usos. And when is Star/Golddust gonna have another match? And I'm sure Slater throwing over Cesaro really helped push Slater.

It was my question, so thanks! The reason I'll probably never cancel the network sub even when the PPVs are hot garbage is because I can at least watch some random old good thing.

It's going to be a major feud and it's been going less than a month. Did you really think you were gonna see anyone get a clean win there? Was this really any worse than a five-minute "match" ending in a DQ or some other garbage?

I turned off auto-renew on the Network. I've been one of the people saying that the Network is great and trying to remain positive about all this, but since Bryan got hurt everything has gone to poo poo. If Summerslam somehow turns it around I'll flip it back on, but god drat...

For the record I 100% agree they should not have advertised Rollins/Ambrose if they were gonna do that, that was bad bad bad. Also they shoulda had either the same IC Title finish with Bo instead of Miz or just let Dolph win. And Bray should've won, that was dumb too.

But the level of doomsaying on this forum right now is kinda funny to me.

Let's not mitigate the awfulness of this show by comparing it to something else that was bad, because some pedantic nonce will go 'er no the other thing was worse'

That show was bad, it was poo poo bad crap.

If I help you now it sets a bad example to my fans.
Maybe it's because I watched it on the network and didn't pay $50 dollars for it but I don't really care about Seth/Dean not having a match. They were still my favorite part of the show and I honestly prefer for them to have a bigger match at Summerslam than have a pointless match on the worst show of the year.

Also battle royal was cool, and Bray Wyatt may as well go back to NXT and change gimmicks again.

Thank goodness Ambrose had The WWE Network on his Mobile Device so he could see where Rollins was in relation to him & his car, so he could get out of the trunk at the correct time!

Vince has lost a shitload of money in a short time and so has the company itself. It's not really that crazy to be less than optimistic after a piece of poo poo production like tonight.

The Wyatt vs Jericho match was good, though I'd have preferred a semi-clean win for Bray. Kofi is still the best thing about free for all matches, Divas wasn't too bad tonight either. Everything else was poo poo.

Jericho went over Bray so that the feud could continue till Summerslam. Wyatts/Usos are hopefully done but they looked to be finished after MITB so who knows. And Brosdust are probably going to face Rybaxel on Raw or maybe they'll beat the Usos to earn #1 contendership or something.
