The crowd counting was atrocious, like I found it funny at first but then they just kept doing it lmao overall I didn't mind the match though, I remember it being fairly hated however :lol

Wrestling fans in a nutshell. Overdo chants until it stops being good.

It's why "This is Awesome!" has lost all meaning. Although, a year without fans has been too long. I'd take the annoyance again.

I can honestly say it's one of Seth's worst matches in WWE. I'm going to sound like a big fanboy, but there isn't many times where I don't enjoy Seth wrestling. Even his average matches are watchable. The Fiend match was just bad in every way, nobody looked good from it. Another match I disliked was that time he faced Ziggler in an Ironman match and it was one of the worst ones I've watched, the stipulation wasn't used to the full potential. I remember the crowd was really annoying that night, too.
I remember the in Ring action being fine in that match but the crowd killed it by trying to get themselves over

I'd rewatch it, but can't be arsed dealing that crowd again. I think I was so burnt out on Ziggler and Rollins working together by that point, and they had both had better days and matches.

The one match outcome that I didn't like and it actually ruined the whole match for me was Charlotte Flair vs Sasha Banks in their Iron Woman Match. I still to this very day feel that Sasha should have just passed out instead of tapping out. Solid match but that ending made me turn off the rest of the Pay Per View.

North American crowds are just bad at making up chants - its not their fault.

Any match that doesn't involve the Fiend being executed ruins the finish.

I don't really think you can count the fart explosion as the "finish" of the Revolution main event cos it wasn't the finish. The finish was the One Winged Angel onto the chair. The explosion stuff was after that.

One match that got ruined by the ending for me was Dean vs Seth, Hell In A Cell 2014 when Bray Wyatt showed up to fuck Dean over. Like, what the hell were they thinking? That match was great up till then, but they just had to ruin it by Wyatt showing up. It was completely unneeded. Wyatt could have shown up after it was over or even on Raw the next night. WHY, DURING THE MATCH??? DAMMIT WWE :tenay

I’ll remember a shitty ending to a good match more than a good ending to a shit match. Bad endings bother me cuz all the great effort of putting on an entertaining match just gets shovelled in shit by some trash ass finish.

Well if End Game had Tony Stark scream "MARTHA!" and Thanos was all "my bad, I'll go home now".....you'd think the last Avengers was shit too.
