Who thought that needed twenty minutes? Yeah, I didn't think it was a terrible match or anything but there was no f***ing need for that to go 20+ minutes.

I think if the match shaved off five minutes we would've been okay. There's a skeleton of a really good match underneath that middle half and slow first half

Buddy (to one of the women with the camera right on them): "Slap me."

I simply refuse to believe that Edge-Orton Mania match only went 36:41. No way. We’re being gaslighted. That shit went well over the two hour mark

not “Jenna Morasca vs Sharmell bad”. If there a move Edge needs to add to his moveset at this point of his career, it's the straddle-and-paintbrush-slap.

I mean, did anyone really expect Buddy to win this match anyway?
I very much doubt it.

Yeah survival is a strong word
Longer than needed sure. Flat at times also sure but overall I actually thought it was decent

Adam Copeland: I'm not your guy, Buddy. Buddy Matthews: ...

OK, but what if the long-term storytelling here isn't that Buddy was suffering from internal bleeding, but is instead evolving to be able to spit red mist? Makes you think. Not gonna lie, Buddy going full Red Lantern and just spitting blood in people's faces would be pretty sick.

Vinny V just summmerised this match perfectly on Bryan and Vinny Show. "Adam Copeland and Buddy Matthews had a very good 10 minute match. Unfortunately they were out there for 22+ minutes"

Cope is doing the long epic TV match thing and that doesn't really work when you don't have a crowd fully into it, and tonight well the crowd was kinda iffy the entire night so. He also isn't as good as Christian is at doing these type of matches. Yeah Christian is better at pacing and crowd work, he can bring them up and down as required, plus has more tools, general cheating, using his goons and he always gets a reaction struggling to do his finisher. Copeland is usually better than this week but it helps if he has the right opponent and crowd. The novelty of Penta or Suzuki holds interest more the wwe style match we've seen many times. This week was weird though because they started epic pacing before earning it, lots of laying around too early in the match. Oh well suspect Brodie will be better as his size is instantly more interesting.
