Solid show all around. 8/10. I'm not super upset about the finish personally, because they put themselves into a lose lose situation by booking it in the first place, so people would be talking shit no matter who won or how. I think they tried too hard, but I get what they were going for. Make Fiend look like a beast, show Seth reluctantly doing everything he could, to the point of going too far because he couldn't put Fiend away. It was sorta a modern era take on Foley vs Taker when you sit and look at it objectively. It sets up for a rematch, while giving the heel the upper hand going into it. It makes Bray look unstoppable. Like, it sets up so many pieces of this story. The only thing I see being damaged in this scenario is the Cell match itself, by having the match end in a DQ when the whole point is to end a feud for good by any means necessary inside one of "the most sadistic structures."
Serious question.
Are you drunk right now? intoxicated with a little bit of the bubbly? perhaps drugs? perhaps as the street profits woudl say, the smoke?
Hell in A Cell is no DQ...ANYTHING GOES...literately anything! hell they said it themselves on twitter! yet somehow, someway, they have the ref decide "Oh! im gonna ignore the fact this guy is a monster and its a no DQ match so anything goes! im gonna atc like a sledgehammer IS SOMEHOW TOO FAR WHEN WEVE HAVE DONE IT COUNTLESS TIMES BEFOREHAND"
This is allmost as bad as WCW having people lose a Falls Count Anywhere match by having them lose by countout! Its allmost that bad! and thats BAD!
Dont get me wrong, the match was good, they put the Fiend over incredibly strong, god like level of strength, but the DQ finish was just a bad move every way you look at it, did you not hear the DEAFENING chants of RESTART MATCH? RESTART MATCH? that makes it worse! the fans HANDED WWE a chance to save their mistake! they had a chance to call an audible on the fly and save the match from being ruined and they DIDNT TAKE IT, making everyone even more angry.
the WWE on Fox twitter acount said ANYTHING goes in Hell In A Cell...ANYTHING! and guess what? they said that all night long! so why the hell would they just ignore that fact!?
Nobody is gonna remember the awesome Becky Sasha match, nobody, because the ONLY thing people are talking about is how fucking stupid that ending was, its stupid.
There are COUNTLESS different and better ways they could have told this story, and each one better, its like i said in a tweet, just when you think you know what worst case scenario is, WWE fidns a way to show you the REAL worst case scenario on a fairly consisttant basis...
I said that 6 months ago during the Money in the Bank PPV, AND ITS STILL RELEVANT NOW.
The more i think about the ending to this match, the more annoyed i get.
Speaking of which.
You guys better get use to me rubbing salt in that wound
cause I'm NEVER going to stop doing it.
Lets be honest with eachother, WWEs fucking up so horribly you aint gotta do anything, they will rub all that sweet sweet salt in the wound for you.
