Uh I think you'll find that they allowed Shin, Finn, Joe, and Roode to all do 1-3 cool moves each before they were cleaned away so the Real Stars could wrestle

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

The only upside to Daniel Bryan's condition is that WWE is fully aware he'd love to be released from his contract so they let him get away with poo poo that nobody else ever would be. His backstage stuff with Steph today was fun in that respect because he wasn't living with the threat of being fired if he didn't stick exactly to the "stand there and get poo poo on" script.
It's going to reach the same tipping point it did with CM Punk where Vince eventually just writes Daniel Bryan off as nothing, but unlike CM Punk, Daniel Bryan will probably take his rear end to NJPW and cause a huge uproar as to where CM Punk just went to MMA and got his rear end kicked.

The difference being where CM Punk was fed up with wrestling in general as to Daniel Bryan somehow becoming more and more hungry to get back into a ring.

They brought out 2 callups that weren't even in the match to beat on them a bit.

I mean when Triple H took out Kurt and Shane pinned him, I was expecting Braun to smash HHH and walk out in disgust, getting counted out, then Shane to pin HHH and give the win to Team Smackdown.

Raw winning after HHH's betrayal made no goddamn sense at all.

That would have at least been satisfying and would have given some storyline to build HHH vs Braun instead of just HHH cheating and Braun being annoyed when Trips tried to sneak attack him

Dont worry all. HHH is going to make Braun Stowman in an epic, thirty minute match at wrestlemania.

He wanted them both to lose to Reigns, even though he wasn't in the match. They failed him, and themselves.

It was good when it happened, but by the time KO made it back to ask Vince about it he had already changed his mind about 12 times.

just like I wanted Champion BRAUN as reverse-Lesnar that constantly insists on defending the title every week, I would also like BRAUN as a 'free agent' like Cena, except instead of being their biggest star, he's just too strong and scary for anyone to stop him


I BEAT EVERYONE ON SMACKDOWN LAST WEEK! I WANT COMPETITION *rips wing off of WWE jet*

I'd totally be down for Braun to start showing up on Smackdown and demanding fights, and defending all the time. It's been a LONG time since we've seen a top champ on either brand defend the title constantly, the closest I can remember is John Cena's U.S. title open challenge but that was for a midcard belt. I don't think it should be done for more than a month or two, but I love the idea of a champ willing to defend the title constantly. It'd also help cement Braun's status as a face.

That as a pretty good KO special too, interesting to see how hard he is on himself, not even thinking that good matches are good until he has both Vince and Austin telling them they liked it and then he's like ok, yeah maybe it was good.
