Board 8 > All-Purpose Wrestling Topic 397: Make TNA Great Again

(+) Yeah! (+)

Roman is beyond repair for a lot of people at this point, but if they don't turn him heel sometime before, during, or soon after beating Taker, I don't think the fans will ever be on his side.

He'll never turn heel until Vince is gone. He's got this image of Roman as the top face in the company, even though nobody else agrees.

Bayley a cheater she will never live it down
---

that was not a good match and the ending was pretty bad too
---

I should note the previous post was for the womens match, as its possible the next mact may have similiar reactions >_>
---

The squash is going to be the perfect ending to this PPV
---

There's enough time for a spear and a jackhammer. Either that or a quick no contest. Probably the spear/jackhammer, since Reigns needs to go through the unbeatable Lesnar or Goldberg.
---

all we need is for KO to get squashed to make this worst PPV of the year

at least Neville vs. Jack Gallagher was good
---

This is like when there's only 5 minutes left in a procedural so you know they've found the killer.
---

Maybe it'll be one of those rare PPV's that go 15 minutes over

lol

Maybe the feed wil get off just like Goldberg's match with DDP. :P

Or maybe Owens squashes Goldberg out of the blue and Brock taunts him about losing to a fat canadian in 1 minute. >__>
---

Alright, everything before the bell has been pretty good
---

If they used this to make Owens appear legitimate with a clean win I could forgive how they ruined Braun. Too bad they won't do that.
---

Got to make Owens look strong by having him distracted.

Right?
---

Lol they even did it with their worst finishing gimmick.
---

I snapchatted that kid with the sign and told him to put his f***ing sign down.
---

That was honestly a pretty terrible PPV. Only fitting that it ends with Goldberg, WCW.
---

f*** all the haters go Goldberg!
---

I mean...at least he got distracted? Honestly better than I expected them to treat him, though an actual match out of Goldberg for once would have been nice
---

So Lesnar gets his win and the belt back at Mania, who loses it to Roman.

I like how they're not paying attention to the rematch clause. We all know how that would go.

It was only to set up the Mania match with Jericho. They don't care about protecting Owens, as evidenced by his matches with Roman and the 47 title shots Rollins got..

I like the Edwards that actually doesn't post like a 12 year old.

Yeah, that was my point. They aren't referencing the rematch clause because everybody knows Goldberg would win.
---

I do like Roman putting over Braun on Raw Talk
---

Wow, scarlet, I'm just having fun. Is that something you've forgotten to do?
---

To my mind distraction finishes just make you look like a dumbass. Someone played some music so you're going to turn your back on the guy that regularly beats people in two moves?
---

I agree here, I'm just surprised that they would actually do that. They've made no attempt to protect Owens throughout his reign, why now?
---

I mean, Raiden knows I'm joking but to call me out for fooling around. Geez.

There's fun and then there's what you posted. If that's your definition of fun, that's fine I guess. It's not my definition of fun.

This entire PPV was not my definition of fun though.
---

I mean, I got to share my Goldberg Fandom with my dad and my son. Three generations of Goldberg marks. So yeah, that was fun for us.

I've watched some very bad RAWs in the last two years, and I don't think any of them felt like a bigger waste of my time than tonight

That's not the same as saying, "suck it lol". Reminds me more of an MWC post than anything.

there was one good thing about this PPV

@JRsBBQ 25m25 minutes ago

Nice that tonight at #WWEFastlane the challengers in the title bouts entered first as they should. Thx, @WWE

I'm glad I had Brave Exvius and Trio of Towns to focus on instead of most of Fastlane.
---

Yes but I was joking. I thought that was implied.
---

I don't even care about Owens. Him beating Goldberg just makes Goldberg look bad-- Owens is a ruined commodity at this point. In fact I wish there was no distraction whatsoever cause I hate "HE WAS DISTRACTED BY MUSIC."

Doing that to Braun though I think they lost my Raw viewership again. Him and JeriKO (rip) were the only things I was watching Raw for.

It's been a good 6 months time to hit the bench again.

Do you not watch Smackdown?
---

Yeah I watch Smackdown and have no plans to stop watching Smackdown cause of this s***ty PPV.

I'd also been watching Raw though after I hadn't watched it regularly from May 2015 thru October 2016 or so

But yeah seems easier to just not
---

Ah, gotcha.
---

jesus f***ing christ I hate WWE.
---

So.

I feel like this PPV is them setting up all of these huge things and then booking themselves in a corner and making them as not impactful as possible.

Roman beating Braun just like that, even though Braun has been a terrible monster who is unstoppable in every way. And he just wins because Braun does a belly flop in the ring.

Charlotte's dumb PPV streak they tried so hard to get people to care about is ended and it ends up with Bayley beating Charlotte because Sasha runs in and attacks Charlotte, not promoting a DQ for some reason, and continues to involve herself so Bayley can gleefully win and act like she did it all her own.

And then Owens vs Goldberg ending exactly how I said. I predicted 2 minutes. 21 seconds. I said if it ends in anything more than a spear and jackhammer, it is ridiculous. And then they have Jericho do a stupid distraction for no reason. And Goldberg's title win is even more meaningless.

I just don't get how this company has any forethought when it comes to Raw booking. It's ridiculous.

based on this topic you're all falling for it, the wwe writers are being good heels

And somehow they did this by having the face go over in each of the top three matches. Truly masterful.

Bro, it was a great PPV, bro.
