Wrestlemania 36: It worked for New Japan

Last Ride- first look is on

I made my friend who wasn't really a fan watch the VHS after Survivor Series.  When Piper said "oooh, he does not look friendly at all" it got a huge pop.  

That is gonna be so great.

I think it's gonna lead to Survivor Series and the real end for Taker.

Wouldn't mind firing this show up Friday or Saturday.

He's not wrong.

He's shit on the Dark Order stuff before. That episode of Dynamite where they all laid out The Elite. He's been judgmental of their product but not nearly as much as he's praised it, so that's what gets noticed more. He criticized the Omega/Mox match as well. Criticizing RAW and/or SD comes more natural.

Tonight he was trying to tweet too much snarkyness in regards of the Edge/Orton thing.

Even I, the Meltzer defender on the board, thought it was dumb.

The match went way too fucking long, just end it at that. No need to tweet more stuff about it.

I’m not saying it makes it right but we all kind have been led to believe there’s this wwe bubble. So with that, how many of these guys know that full Benoit story on how he off’ed himself? How many know that Vice came out with that documentary a week or two ago? Not sure who was all involved in this but I feel like Edge is the only one who may have really known for sure. I could be way off. Think it’s possible their bubble kept them from knowing what they were doing.

He liked it more than he disliked it. But I just remember him being critical of some of the major moments in it. I think he gave it 4.25 or 4.5 stars. Can't remember though.

It was long and they did too much. Barbed wire bed, chains, crawling through glass, exposing the hardwood part of the ring, mouse traps, etc. On top of all your usual no DQ plunder.

The Boneyard match had no history of why AJ was in the match.  Had it been Kane or Brock I would have probably been more understanding of the decisions in the match.  It just made no sense with AJ and it was choppy.  Not sure if that was on purpose or not.  THe Funhouse match covered all that history between Cena and Bray and the different characters getting them to that point in their careers.  And Bray finally getting the deserved win and rub from Cena.  It was tremendous on all fronts.  So yes in comparison the Boneyard match sucked. 

Now, I hope this isn't a regular thing. Knowing Vince its shiny and he'll keep doing it until he gets bored of it.  But this should be a once a year or two type deal and for specific feuds that could benefit from this type of format.

I've watched Firefly Funhouse 4 times since last night.

I love it more and more each time.

I didn't catch Bray singing the Bellas theme the first time.

Intercutting Cena and Hogan moments.

Brilliant.
