The best part of the main event was when Roode was warming up to do the "GLORIOUS" thing and Finn was in the background, desperately yelling "DON'T DO IT!" Like the whole thing was deadly and if it happened it would have killed HHH.

I like when guys sell for taunts like it's so traumatic that it causes physical pain.

I also hope Sanity shows up on Raw and beats up the Shield so Killian Dain can take Roman's spot.

I'd be surprised if Kurt was jumping for joy over the thought of a Mania match with HHH in 2018

We're going to be watching McMahon family bollocks in 2027.

lol at the optimism here

In reality, the team captains of the women's division match at Survivor Series 2040 will be Raw Women's Champion HHH's Daughter 1 and Smackdown Women's Champion HHH's Daughter 2, and half the build will be about them arguing over who's his favorite

who the fucks wants HHH-Kurt in 2018? It will be a sad and pathetic match and the build will be trash

Lock up, Kurt out wrestles HHH, HHH resorts to punches but is out punched by Kurt, they brawl to the outside and HHH flees back into the ring and hits the pedigree on Kurt who kicks out. The rest of the match is both men trading big moves and laying around with HHH hitting the Olympic Slam because there's that part of you that believes that HHH is a big enough oval office to actually beat someone with their move. The finish happens and both men shake hands as Cole screams about Respect even though in the Build HHH drove a bulldozer into his fake son or something.

HHH disappears for another six months before coming back to build to HHH Vs Road Dogg because everyone else is ether dead or retired.

I'm positive he just announced on a Smackdown,"And I'm gonna be the Team Captain!" and that's how we learned he was in the team? Did I just conflate that with Kurt on Raw following their invasion?

He's saying Real Person Paul Levesque booked himself in the match while Real Person Shane McMahon (probably) did not since he's just a performer.

I don't think the HHH stuff was especially bad in a vacuum, its the knowledge that this is more McMahon family drama, a match with Kurt, and likely the return of The Authority that makes it awful. If I don't project into the future, his work in the match was fun.

The crowd still pops for Trips despite his age and declining quality, and he let people beat his rear end and then post-match he let Braun terrorize him, all of which is good. Hitting your finisher on your rival teammate so you can steal the glory is a pretty hilarious heel move, and if it had been done with two wrestlers I want to see, I'd be all for it. I don't want to see any more Joe vs. Finn for a while but it would have made sense for them, and at least it would be newer stars instead of old attitude era fossils.

In other news, I actually enjoyed the Bliss/Charlotte match a lot (as an admitted bigtime Bliss fan) and it's cool to see that while she isn't a ring general by any means, Alexa can be carried to a good match. She's improved a lot in her limited time wrestling.

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.



I think I would have preferred if they had held off giving Charlotte the title and had Carmella cash in on Natty. Not sure when it will make sense for her to take it off Charlotte now, and I doubt they’d make both cash-ins this year failures

Aphrodite posted:

No, Shane the character definitely did it. I just mean that everything Triple H does that people don't like also has that element of knowing he's in charge behind the scenes too.

That's fair. However, I believe Shane has a decent level of creative control on his character too. He couldn't force Brock to sell his lovely punches, but outside of that, every angle he's been a part of appears to be of his making. I could be wrong about that, and he certainly doesn't have a title that implies that he can control the booking like Triple H does, but every angle Shane's been in has served him more than it's served the person he was feuding with.

At least the main event had one silver lining: it finally dispelled that old myth people like to talk about that HHH likes or supports the NXT guys or wants them to succeed. Nope. That's sorta kaput now. 6 NXT champions involved in the match (counting KO and Sami) and all of them were made to look inferior to Shane and Hunter.

For what it's worth, most of them were made to look inferior to Braun, Cena and Orton, not Shane or Hunter. Shane and Hunter just got to last longer.

But Shane totally punked KO and Sami and made them look like pathetic weaklings.

I bet tonight Braun will be killed off again in a new and exciting way for the crime of depicting HHH in a prone or vulnerable position. Maybe HHH will smugly chew gum and dissolve him in acid, or melt him with a laser.
