There's little to be said about the Cesaro/Zayn match that hasn't already been said, so I'll say this, Rusev reminds me of Hakan a bunch. Just dye his hair turquoise and become obsessed with oil and he'll make a fan out of me.

Yeah, outside of awesome Cesaro/Zayn match, Alexander Rusev impressed me against Ziggler. I'd love to see him on the main roster sometime throwing around smaller guys.
Wonder if he'll do the "name on board" thing for all his opponents though.

Apparently they cut several minutes out of the match from what happened live.

If you enjoyed this match, you should definitely seek PWG's El Generico (Zayn) vs. Claudio Castagnoli (Cesaro) matches.
From 4:55 onward: PWG World Champion Castagnoli (c) vs. Generico
From 1:45 onward: Battle of Los Angeles Round 1, Castagnoli vs. Generico

Wait, that was El Generico? I've only seen one match of his in ROH -- TV Title match from the second week under the sinclair owners -- match went into Overtime. I think it was against Jay Lethal.

I said it once & i'll say it again, NO BO = EPIC SHOW
- CJP is still boring, meanwhile Zoolander Dalton keeps getting better
- Rusev new gimmick looks cool, I didn't recognize at first
- AWESOME MAIN EVENT
- Who is the blond chick that took Dalton photo?

Amazed at how Cesaro was able to hold onto Zayn for the VEU.

That Cesaro/Zayn match deserved all the standing o's afterwards.
At the very end, what could have easily been a botch of the Very European Uppercut was simply just another epic feat of strength from the Swiss Superman. I guaran-damn-ty that in 3-4 years, Cesaro vs Zayn will be headlining WWE PPVs.

That ending blew my mind. Absolutely surreal strength. Pound for pound, strongest guy in the WWE.

As promised the gif of the hellacious Helluva/OLE!...? Kick that won Zayn the first fall, made by me   and a full gif of Cesaros reversal and holding him up before doing the glorious SWISS DEATH, as the one's I found had it in two separate gifs  I'm amazing how a nearly botched spot shows the insane strength that man has and somehow made the Swiss Death/VEU look even better (when it was already a beautiful move to begin with!!!). I stand by my rating of ****1/2 easily. I can't wait for Zayn to get to the main roster and for Cesaro to become more prominant! |

The end of Cesaro/Zayn was NUTS!!! I don't remember ever reacting to anything on my television like that before. That match definitely lived up to the praise, sick spots AND great storytelling.

So do I. If that's going to happen though, Cesaro needs to let go of the pantyhose fetish once and for all.
On WWE TV at least.
He's so fun to watch and Zayn is wasted down in NXT the guy is obviously ready. This match really was PPV quality and the ending had me going..."WOW"

My favorite part was after Cesaro won when he collapsed and hit his neck on the ropes. No joke that was an incredible way to put the match over.
The upside of Zayn with no mask is that his selling is even greater. Is anyone better at looking exhausted?
Please have Cesaro be the one to end bully Ryback. It'd be real easy to get people to cheer for this man.
