NYU 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2005 That was great. The ending might have fallen a little flat, but that was one of the most intense matches I've seen in a long time. It was as close to a shoot fight as you'll get in a WWE ring. Next month, it will get the spot on the Unforgiven card it rightfully deserves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JericholicEdgeHead Report post Posted August 22, 2005 REALLY disapointing PPV thus far...this is the first PPV I have bought since Wrestlemania...and it is looking to be my last. I can't justify spending $$ on WWE anymore. TOO much talk not enough action for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jim Ross Report post Posted August 22, 2005 Im glad there wasnt a wrestling hold in sight.. It was realistic enough though, even went longer than your typical 'fight'. I wonder how it will hold up later though when eddie and rey do much worse to each other in a ladder match ant it DOESNT get stopped. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SuperJerk 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2005 I guess Hogan/HBK is going to last an hour. So glad I'm just reading the recaps and didn't pay the $35 for this. Then again, maybe we'll get that Edge vs. Batista match we were talking about earlier. **gets his hopes up** Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NYU 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2005 Aside from that spear spot, and insane ringpost bump by Matt, that match was pretty lame. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It was meant to be a brutal fistfight between these two guys with a few chokes and stomps thrown in. If Edge or Matt would have attempted something as simple as a bodyslam or a suplex, the match would have COMPLETELY failed. They made it a realistic fight -- which is exactly what it needed to be. They really couldn't have done a better job with that match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Jim Ross Report post Posted August 22, 2005 And yeah.. to pick up on what Chris said, was that a legit stop? I thought that myself at first... all will be revealed later if Matt beats edge up backstage during an interview segment Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Jim Ross Report post Posted August 22, 2005 The way this is going the PPV will be over within the hour. Either its a very long Cena/Jericho match or a very long Batista/JBL match.. I cant see the Hogan match going past 30 mins at most. Or we have some 'bonus' matches thrown in, or a masterlock challenge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When it's almost a mortal lock that Eddie, HBK and/or JBL will bleed buckets later on tonight and none of those matches will be stopped at that point by the official, it looks a bit silly to have the referee step in for Matt so quickly. The idea was correct, I just didn't like the execution. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SuperJerk 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2005 Does that mean, Eddie/Rey's already over. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes. They actually hoisted Dominique over the ring, and Rey carried him down with the ladder. Dominique turned on Rey and told him he wanted to be Eddie's son because we'd have a better chance of growing up to be a normal height. Eddie then drove off with Dominique in his lowrider, which was equipped with a WWE custom car-seat (now for sale at wwe.com). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
