but hey, vince gonna vince no matter what

basically he made salad out of chickenshit, but he didnt really do anything other than capitalize on the fact that the booking fucking sucked and everyone hated the match lol

Well Undertaker definitely shouldn't have won that match and the match literally sucked because of Taker lmfao

 

[Marty McFourth]

but he wasnt a heel and didnt turn heel until much later. it wasnt some long term plan either. it was just working the smarks with 0 payback. was it a cool moment? sure. but it was non sensical storytelling

Yeah, I'm definitely glad they finally pulled the trigger on Roman. I really thought he'd be like Cena & never turn again, so it was nice when they actually did it.

 

[Sabretooth]

and thats fine. i personally dont find much sense in pissing off your core audience

I mean the fans basically turned on Roman for no reason other than he was WWE's guy

Lesnar deserved the streak, if you actually remember his bookin' before that he was strugglin'. That and his SummerSlam match put Lesnar back in the spot he needed to be in

takes two to tango, so im putting plenty of onus on roman not making it good. a top guy would have made it work better. i never thought taker should win. but the entireangle and match and premise was hot garbage in the first place unless you were going to make roman the heel . which they didnt. whole thing wasa disaster and the definition of trying to force roman into the superhero role no one wanted

 

[Comrade Khan]

and i want to say, im not shitting on roman here. he did wtv he could lol

 

[Deezy]

Boy do I love these hindsight booking talks

 

[Comrade Khan]

this was also like 4-5 years into shove face roman down peoples throat so ya it was just so tone deaf

That Cena squash at Summerslam 14

Yeah with the fans already hating Roman, there was no point in booking him as a babyface in the angle. As far as the match goes, I blame Taker entirely lmfao

 

[Kiffy Lube]

Oh the Roman/Taker match, yeah Taker wasn't ready for that. Roman still deserved to win that

 

[Comrade Khan]

at the end of the day the biggest fault goes to taker and vince because taker should have never been in this match or cleared for it, roman not exactly in a position to say no. i still think he should have been able to reverse the tombstone spot but hey, mistakes happen and people get caught off balance.

 

[Comrade Khan]

and ill admit my hatred of roman at the time likely makes me remember it worse than it was
