Whilst I appreciate the fact that Cena is popular, the boy can't sell... The whole build up to the match was dominated by The Rock. He was funny, clever and intense while Cena stood their smirking like a teenager with a chip on his shoulder. Damn straight The Rock should have won! |

As Skeith says: Quote: John Cena has been on the top of the promotion for SEVEN YEARS STRAIGHT. He doesn’t need to have the torch passed to him. John Cena has already done everything one human being can possibly do in professional wrestling, and the result of the Rock match did not make him a bigger or lesser star one iota either way. John Cena was already so far above everyone else on the roster that they had to bring BROCK LESNAR out of his cave in Minnesota in order to give him a challenge.

If Vince wanted The Rock to lose to Cena, The Rock would have done the job. Back in the Attitude Era, Stone Cold rarely jobbed. Triple H rarely jobbed. The Rock lost to everyone and their dog. |

What I thought was interesting was that the match itself was very 'old school'. How often these days do you see the two guys clinch up at the start of the match? Very entertaining match, and to be honest no real surprise that in Miami the Rock won it. Although lols at Rock wrote: Shall we do the DDT? halfway through. |

Yeah, The Rock clearly said "Are we doing the DDT" and they spent a little longer in some submission move and then, surprise, DDT. |

Probably should put Raw stuff in spoilers until Tuesday nights or something, to be fair to people. Mania thoughts: Bryan/Seamus - WTF? Admittedly funny, but robbed the audience of what could have been a great match. Orton/Kane - huge surprise. I would have bet anything on Orton winning. Taker/HHH - enjoyed it despite disliking the extremely boring build up. One too many 'finishing' move perhaps, but silly fun. Teddy/Johnny - bit meh, but great ending. Ryder looked a million dollars, and the monkey flip on Ziggler was insane. Right team won. Punk/Jericho - really good match Rock/Cena - bit slower than I had hoped, probably for Rocky's benefit. Loved his technical display at the start though. Made me laugh. No torch needed to be passed, and Cena reacting to losing is the better future storyline, so the right winner. |

Show/Rhodes had a much bigger buildup over the last couple of months than Sheamus/Bryan. I said it for two reasons 1) It fitted the theme better. Show/Rhodes was all about how Show gets humiliated at Mania. For Rhodes to get distracted by the ref not handling his belt correctly or similar and then punched out in 10 seconds would have been fitting. 2) Bigger build up or not, the Seamus/Bryan match was for the World Title, and featured the winner of the Royal Rumble. Look at the crowd and the number of D Bryan signs in comparison to either Show or Rhodes. |

Sure - but then Bryan was the MITB winner and took the title off Show in an equally brief fashion, and no-one complained then. Because Bryan is popular, presumably. |

Dunno if it was a reaction to Mania, a reflection of the fans at that arena, or if Bryan has just become massively more over in the past few weeks. |

Bryan was in the dark main event tag match. (At TV tapings, they have a final match after the cameras stop for the fans) Huge pop when he came out, and every time he was in the match the entire crowd were shouting 'Yes!' to every move he hit. When he was tagged out? The entire crowd chanting for him. Crazy. |

Its the internet era. About the only time someones turned up unexpectedly in the WWE since the internet: Rhyno and Spike Dudley back in the day, Eric Bischoff, Cena at the Rumble a few years ago and The Rock last year. Poor Jericho has had three attempts at a surprise debut/return, and the crowd knew for each one. |

| Author: | Decca [ Thu Apr 05, 2012 0:43 ] |
| Post subject: | Re: Rasslin' |
Amusing thing is that only cena and the rock knew out of all the performers. Vince/Ace told them all that the crowd was full of shit and that if he did return then there would be a proper build up with video packages and that they were going to wait till after A-Train came back to air them. Lesner was hidden in a closet for hours so the surprise backstage was genuine. edit: road dog and Nash were fairly surprising returns. RD especially as there was a lot of bad blood there. |

I've watched that around 133 1/3 times. Normally when I watch YouTube videos I understand them 100%, when Steiner is involved that goes down to 50% but because he had Petey Williams on there, that adds on an extra 15%... but you've got to subtract two lots of 20% because I can't remember either of the two girls names. One of my friends would remember their names but he's not me and only half the man I am so that means I can only remember one lot of 50% of their names. All this added up, means that Scott Steiner is my new favourite wrestler! |
