I love how they call Cena "controversial". There's nothing controversial about his character. Maybe if there was the crowd wouldn't turn on him every match.
HHH's enterance at Mania 22 Says "not so fast"
Compared to "Gangsta' Cena"?
I think not..
WAY worse than Gangsta Cena. Whatever they were going for with HHH's Thor enterance missed its mark completely.
But Austin was two things: 1. The top star in the company and 2. The guy people were rooting for going in and all match long.
Orton...was treated as an afterthought in the buildup to the match and well...there's actually probably more people rooting for him than Cena.
It worked because Flair's offense is so limited that it made it more believable that he could compete on HBK's level.
Thank God the lights didn't go out last match.
They should have had someone else call this thing.
JR sounds every bit as befuddled having to follow a classic moment in wrestling history with this as you'd imagine.
Flair asking for it was probably my favorite Mania moment since I thought Austin broke the sharpshooter at Mania 13.
Of course they left that part out of the post match video replay. But whatever. It happened. and it ruled.
I'm actually kind of glad they put this on early now. This is the only match I'm emotionally invested in so I can just sit back and enjoy the rest of the show when it's over.
*Huge Flair mark*
