tbf I think once JBL coined that name for him, he wasn't even winning a ton anymore and was just putting on some great shit. Maybe outside of some cheesiness that stuck around from the early PG era.

He wasn't, 2012-2013 were some of the worst offenders from my memory, and then he chilled out a bit.

Did some great shit with AJ Styles and some other guys. I also liked that little stint he had with the US Title doing open challenges. He made plenty of guys look good.

Put Owens over big time as well. Great chemistry.

Thanks for reminding me

:bosque

That was a dark time to be a Rollins fan. They did some terrible booking, not even I could ignore it. Plus that god awful red light over all the Fiend's matches. Just...why? Couldn't see shit.

One of the worst PPV's I've ever sat through, I think. Gotta be.

Owens/Reigns from a few months ago was also pretty bad because of them not being able to uncuff Roman for ages :beckylol

It all really depends for me on what the ending is.

The whole exploding TV thing didn’t bother me as much as the stupid shit with the Fiend and Seth. The finish to the Braun and Roman one a year before was also bad with Brock coming in and wrecking shit, but not as bad. Would’ve been better had we still some how got an actual finish.

Didn't the finish of Wyatt and Seth in HITC a few years ago kill the entire show?

Maybe just ruined the match.

But now that you mention it. I don’t remember anything else from the show.

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 thought Ziggler/Rollins was amazing

I preferred some of their other matches. The Ironman match was weird, pacing was off. Perhaps I should rewatch it. I just know the crowd counting (I think?) ticked me off.

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
