Fuck you Vince.

WWE marks need to fuck off with the typick "enjoy the ride" bullshit whenever this company decides not to strike while the iron is hot.

But according to WWE marks its good long term booking.

I'm going to be very curious how this Pay Per View does in the buyrate category...and then curious to see how the first Orton PPV does.

Orton is not, has not, and will never be a PPV draw.

I don't care how much Bryan and Cena may have copied, he knows that 98% of the wwe audience hasn't seen G1 and probably never will, so he did the spots because he really enjoyed them. Everything has been done in this business, sometimes the repeats are a lot closer for some peoples comforts. Great show guys, Great Show. Btw fuck Baja Cable, and the WWE.com stream couldn't been a hell of a lot better, and a hell of a lot worse.

Even the most ardent WWE supporter should pause before making that statement when it involves Randal Keith Orton

The finish worked. Bryan is a bigger star than he was an hour ago, and people badly want him to beat Orton now. His perfect role is underdog babyface, and if he drops the goofy aspects of his character this will be big money. He's officially a top guy now. He wasn't before this match.

I'm curious to see what they do with Punk now because we all know it'll be months before we get Lesnar in the ring again

[IamMedellin]

I agree with Bryan not being buried tonight, but as for him being a bigger star... that all depends on the booking starting tommorow night

Does he get the Big Push as a TOP Guy, or is he big footed by the Next Chapter in the McMahon Family struggle and eventually forgotten? going by creative's track record, Im not putting too much stock in a Big AmDrag payoff

I think it will start with more Heyman, but they will turn it to either Wyatt Family or Shield.

Orton eats one of these or Danielson fans RIOT.

I disagree.

He was already made a HUGE star when he beat Cena clean.

Did Punk become a bigger star when Del Rio beat him at Summerslam and he went on to have matches with Del Rio, HHH, and Kevin Nash? It took an insanely long title reign to regain a ton of that momentum that he already after he won the match.

To chase, win, only to lose immediately and then chase again...has that ever made anyone in the WWE a bigger star? I would say no.

[Warner2BruceTD]

So was that a Boma Ye, or KENTA's busaiku knee?





Looked like a hybrid of both.

[JayDizzle]

I wonder what the exchange rate is from Dollars to Yen because Danielson better write a check or two.

This, there was no need to have Orton win tonight if anything have Orton cash in later in the year or hell after Elimination Chamber and setup Mania with Bryan vs Orton. Instead Cena will come out and say Orton is a coward and then HHH will say this is whats best for business and Bryan will be a little bitch in the corner.

How about we just call it a knee to the face?
