The Pile Of Chairs Spot

[Sumbody Gon' Get Dey Kneelift]

Was completely botched. I think maybe Bryan's foot hit the pile. I think this helped take the energy out of the main event; if there'd been a crazy bump leading into the schmozz, it might've felt more dynamic. Why was Bryan throwing all those chairs in the ring? Was that ever even addressed?

Yeah, that was weird. I guess I could see if Orton were trying to suplex Bryan onto the pile, but why not a table? Or the steel stairs? Odd spot to think of.

I'm telling you guys. Orton's got OCD and Bryan KNEW that. He threw all those chairs in the ring because he knew it would distract Orton. He'd have to flip them all face up, then waste time removing them from the ring.

Like when Mulder spilled those sunflower seeds in that episode of X-Files.

maybe he was going to give Orton a Brazilian wax!!!

Everything from the pile of chairs spot onwards was botched...

The crappy looking ref bump.
Triple H taking an age to get into the cell.
The camera angle and selling of the running knee on triple H.
HBK going for SCM then realising Bryan wasn't ready and then when he does hit it he completely misses.

I also don't get why Orton spent what felt like a solid 2 minutes picking up and putting down chairs.

I know in reality he was getting them all facing the same direction and sitting neatly so the superplex bump would be safer, but it looked really ridiculous.

They probably planned to have them land more on the chairs, but it's probably better for Bryan and Orton that they didn't land on the chairs. It was really weird to have Bryan throw in so many chairs. What was he planning to do with them?

Arrange them all into a big "YES" in the middle of the ring.

The booking of that entire match seemed poorly thought out.

It was an odd spot because for Bryan to really hit the chairs, it would have meant Orton launching from the top rope and probably giving himself a concussion.

Bryan did cover it pretty instantly by grabbing his leg.

The guy operating Heyman's lift also had the key to the cell.

The entire ending was a colossal mess.

- Daniel Bryan grazes the pile of chairs with his foot
- The camera misses Daniel Bryan's knee to Triple H's face
- Shawn Michaels whiffs entirely on Sweet Chin Music

WWE stole a page from TNA's playbook. All it needed was Triple H covering Bryan and being rewarded with the WWE Championship to make it the most TNA thing ever.

[percymania]

I'm glad he missed the chairs, for his back's sake.

[Sumbody Gon' Get Dey Kneelift]

I wanted it so bad.

Apparently, so did Daniel Bryan.

I said in another thread that it was probably intentional. Trips more than likely had a meeting on Monday and didn't want to risk the face getting all twisted.
