I just had a thought.
I wonder if they are going to have to do a refund or something anyway for the power outage, and decided to give us a non-ending so as not to have to "waste" a main event for that. Probably not, but just a thought.

Well I'm glad they didn't throw Bryan's real title win on this show because I knew it would fly under the radar if he did but that was a weird ending. I thought the swerve on top of the swerve was really well done, but then they played Big Show's music and it got weird. Hopefully it comes up that Maddox should have just used the Shield because for what he was trying to do they were the obvious choice to do it right.
PPV was better than I expected, glad I paid for the big spin, the Rhodes family kickass, and Orton/Bryan always bring it.

Hahaha, no finish? I don't get it, what's the point of dragging this out so long? If Bryan's winning the belt, it's been a long convoluted road of nothing. If he's not, it's been a long convoluted road of nothing, without a satisfying payoff. I really think the title will continue to escape Bryan until he wins the Royal Rumble goes on to win the title at Wrestlemania. It's too long though, I really think that's expecting too much of the fanbase to stay behind an angle where they test patience like this. There was steady swell of crowd support and DB winning matches leading up to Summerslam, he got that big win and that should've been the kick off of his reign right there. I thought they had a good idea, but this is not working out.

Seriously...whoever proposed that in whatever creative meeting needs to be fired. It was "free" for the UK sure, but you can't charge $55 and end it like that. That's robbery.

I'm certainly glad I gave this storyline no hope after Summerslam. My gut instinct was if they shit the bed that early, there was no coming back. You don't bait someone on a big PPV, let alone a string of them.
Of course, you're always going to get those people who complain that I'm too quick to judge where something is going. Well, it's a simple formula. It's like planting the seeds and waiting for harvest. You don't plant the seeds, dig them back up, grind the seeds into dust, piss on the seed remnants, then replant them with the hope of a big harvest. It doesn't work like that.
WWE, you fail again. You just don't get it. Or you don't care. Either way, Daniel Bryan is not going anywhere. He's already his the glass ceiling, and as he did...you were sure to put a 4 inch thick panel of steel on top of it, preventing him from going any further. Nice job.

Ugh. I bought the PPV entirely for Shield vs. Rhodes family, and that match turned out great. But now I'm definitely regretting spending 60 bucks on this PPV. i spent 45 and watched it on PSN but the goddamn feed was acting shitty during the Rhodes vs the shield match

On a side note, scouring the various forums I've seen that the crowd has broke out into a "bullshit" chant.

lol they upset people into getting refunds on their last PPV, so they top that by just not having anyone win this PPV.
ONE REALLY GOOD match (Rhodes vs Shield) was not worth the $60 I just spent

Surely that's grounds for a refund...no? Much more than Night of Champions was, that's for damn certain.

According to Twitter, bullshit and refund chants throughout the arena.

Ughhh. I watched this PPV to try to get back into WWE full-time, since I haven't watched a full, beginning to end episode of RAW or SD since 2008. The only match worth watching was the Rhodes/Shield match. Every single time I consider giving WWE another chance, they pull crap like this. They do know this is a PPV, right? Back to old-school wrestling clips on Youtube for me. smh

Ugh, considering if it's worth calling Sky up tomorrow.
Good of the PPV:
- Great hardcore WHC match. - GRAND Rhodes vs Shield match - Fun Real Americans vs Khali/Santino match - Sort of fun Bray Wyatt match
Bad of the PPV:
- Punk vs Ryback. Awful finish, disappoingly bad match (compared to some of their others which I did enjoy) - Divas match. Get Brie Bella out of the ring until she can wrestle to a competent level. I'm not saying AJ is a 5 star worker, but at least she gets better all the time and spends time on improving, which you notice. - Incomplete main event. Which is where the pissed offed-ness comes in. If I hadn't of paid for it, I've not be that annoyed, but this isn't a Raw I can watch each week after paying my monthly subscription cost, this was an additional £20 solely for the main event.
I defend WCW a lot, and feel it's mocked too regularly by a company who often does much worse things, and they just WCWed. I'm going to ask for a refund as it's just not a good way to treat ANY customer. "See the rematch next month!" "No, give me my money back you scumbags."

If I don't have the cash for video games later this month, I'm going to be really disappointed that I spent it on this WWE.
I blame myself.
