Like I said earlier, you can probably still find the good moments on YouTube or somewhere else on the internet and ham it up on the funny parts.....all the while not sitting through the utter crap of their lower and mid card matches.

Attitude Era mid-card was the absolute WOAT. Unwatchable.

NXT "Special Events" give me a "Clash of the Champions" vibe. I dig it.

Is it me or does the Extreme Rules Card seem very predictable as in Results? Only Match I can see WWE trying to shock people is if they put Evolution over Shield and possibly Wyatt beating Cena. Anyways here are my predictions or what I think should happen and why...

El Torito vs. Hornswoggle - This is pretty much the Basic Old School Midget match up where the Face wins because he can out perform his opponent.

Bad News Barrett vs. Big E - After an Underwhelming tourney for a title that most of us have forgotten about due to a lack of booking for Big E. I see it being WWE's way of pushing Big E to the side until they find something better for him or release him.

R-Truth & Xavier Woods vs. Alexander Rusev - Squash match, probably wont break 5 minutes.

RVD vs. Jack Swagger vs. Cesaro - Cesaro is the one getting the push and needs this win to keep his momentum going, can expect a pretty fun match with some more Zeb and Heyman shenanigans going on ringside.

Shield vs. Evolution - I'm going with Rollins, Reigns and Ambrose on this one. These three have been on top of WWE since Day 1, and will put up a hell of a fight. I also wouldn't be surprised if Evolution comes out on top to prolong the fued, but feel it will go on all summer either way.

John Cena vs. Bray Wyatt - I want Bray to win this but WWE is so dead set on having Cena "overcome". Also Cena doesn't lose at Extreme Rules, Cole will tell you this a few times tonight I bet.

Paige vs. Tamina Snuka - I expect a good match. Paige is a great worker so far and Tamina has a nasty looking Superkick. I expect WWE to keep the Momentum on Paige.

Daniel Bryan vs. Kane - DB was on a roll, but has been cooled off as of late(with his recent marriage and passing of his Father). I expect this match to heat DB back up into future fueds this summer, maybe even a more in depth storyline between him and Kane. I can see Kane dominating 90% of this match, with DB gutting it out to show how tough of a SOB he really is. Expect a Great match from the two as I see this being Kanes last Run at a major if any title in the wwe.

I think it's pretty certain Wyatt wins to prolong their deal. What's the sense in Cena beating him again?

I don't think Wyatt really needs a victory to keep things going due to how they are booking it. It's all about turning the crowd and people against Cena, and even if Wyatt loses, there are still ways to have him keep "winning" the battle against Cena.

I just want it to end. The first match was the drizzling shits, and I don't think putting them in a cage is going to make it any more watchable.

Heyman is still keeping the Breaking The Streak train going, and I love it.

Lmao at Cole forgetting it was an elimination natch. Almost had another Taker confused moment there.

Swagger being eliminated first shows you how much of a shit they give about his fued with Cesaro.

 

[ThomasTomasz]

That should have been a more prolonged feud, but with RVD eliminating Swagger, that effectively ends it. I just yawned through that match, and if that's going to be the best they've got tonight, what a stinker PPV, especially compared to the past Extreme Rules. At least I am getting it on the Network and not paying through the nose for it.

 

[XavierDZ]

I think the "Special Event" with the Rusev exception is actually pretty good match wise. Storyline wise it's meh.

Someone needs to get that resized so I can upload it as a gif here :yep:

 

[ThomasTomasz]

So am I correct in assuming the Linear Title is now unified with the IC Title?

 

[XavierDZ]

Shield vs Team Midlife Crisis!

 

[ThomasTomasz]

Ambrose got some air on that one :rockclap:

 

[ThomasTomasz]

And now Rollins one-upped him mg3:

 

[ThomasTomasz]

Match of the night for sure, since we know Danielson can't top it with (Demon) Kane

 

[PP]

was I watching an ECW match?

 

[krulmichael]

Awesome match. Was pleasantly surprised. Although the camera man missed something that the crowd went nuts for. Haven't seen the WWE get that wreckless in a long while.

The cage feels smaller than I remember it.
