My great-grandfather started Larsen Pork Products with little more than three pigs and a killing hammer. Today, I'm proud to say, we kill more pigs than pig hepatitis.
Both Battlegrounds have been awful. Time to discontinue it.

No they're not. It was a terribly booked PPV but Christ you people are overdramatic as hell.

First they came for Ziggler, and I did not say anything because I was not a Ziggler mark yet
Then they came for Cesaro, and I did not say anything because really, what are they doing I am speechless
And then they came for the Wyatts and I would just not shut the gently caress up

I actually did just click on the link which says "change your auto-renew preference here" and it immediately came up with a page saying thank you for choosing to auto-renew. So, yeah.

(I guess I must have turned it off sometime before and forgotten, but still, made me snort laugh to see after tonight.)

yeah I did the same. I quickly clicked it again to turn it off

Lacey is really good actually
Not the best PPV but not horrible either, Really feel like everyone saying they are turning off auto renew is overreacting and SummerSlam should be good.

Why couldn't tell have a match here and then have one with bigger stakes at SummerSlam? Why not a ladder match between the two at SummerSlam for the MitB contract? Why did they use this PPV to advertise another PPV?

Cena's post-show interview is literally "I overcame the odds." Straight-faced and soulless. Even Cena knows its a joke by this point.

That's it? That's the end?

Come on people this is worse than 2014 Royal Rumble. There hasn't been a PPV this bad in a while.

I would say not even close to worst PPV in a while, and certainly not worse than the Rumble. The best match on that PPV was Bryan vs. Bray. That and the Usos/Wyatts cancel each other out. The rest of the Rumble involved the Outlaws beating Brodust on the pre-show, that Cena/Orton train wreck that was the most poo poo on match ever, a terrible Brock vs. Show beatdown, and a really, really meh Rumble outside a handful of spots.

As others have said, the booking was questionable at best, though the match quality was good for the most part.

They should've canceled the match before the night of the PPV then or just not booked it at all. Simple and easy. What they ended up doing was the kind of crap WCW would do and piss off the fans and make them lose confidence in the product.

There's no excuse to put on a PPV like that ever. They should hang their heads in shame.
