"Main event: Sami Zayn vs, Kevin Owens in a Montreal Street Fight. Very loud ovation for both. They have wrestled each other countless times in Montreal, but this is their first main event in the Bell Center. They go back and forth for a while with a kendo stick. Sami then bring out a hockey stick to a big pop. Crowd chants “We want tables”. Owens asks that they say it in French. Crowd chants “on veut des tables”. Owens says he doesn’t speak French. Great stuff. Match ends with Sami powerbombing Owens through a table and 3 Helluva kicks.
As Owens is leaving, Sami gets on the mic and talks about their history. He says he doesn’t like Kevin Owens but respects him and puts over the fact that he was Universal champ for the last 9 months and that he is proud that a Quebecois represented the company. The crowd gives Owens a huge ovation and Owens looks like he is legitimately crying. He grabs the mic says the Quebecois equivalent of “F***, i hate you!” and walks off. Sami says “That’s what i figured!”. He then finishes by saying that he’s not sure what he’s doing at Wrestlemania, but tonight was his Wrestlemania."
Yeah. I never really bought the guy that posts adorable pics of him and his family, and has a great sense of humor and a soft heart as an evil, foaming at the mouth heel.
I saw Kevin Owens take on Cena in Singapore at my first ever Live Event. I'll never forget that match and made me a big Cena and KO fan. Sometimes awesome stuff happens at the house shows.
I was at the live event yesterday, their match was off the chain, the people were so into it. I'm sure KO just had something in his eyes (haha). You could tell he was emotional, great match.
More on the live event, it was supposed to be Reigns vs Strowman.. it ended being Reigns vs Samoa Joe (Braun was sick, hurt?). Reigns got more boos than cheers obviously.
Major pop for Finn! it was insane, he worked with Jinder (ya..)
Sami indeed is one of the most convincing promos in the entire business. Add to that he has the perfect look for his gimmick and impeccable character work to boot, I just don't think he lacks anything to become the best underdog since Mysterio. Hoping that he features in the main event scene some time in 2017.
Sorry but....
What gimmick?
What character?
Where are these best in the business promos? He can talk ok but he doesn't make you wanna see him fight because he comes off as a characterless ordinary Joe.
Good to hear that (arguably) 2 of the best of the business main-evented a house show near their hometown, had a great match to send the fans home happy, and delivered a great post-match segment afterwards. :clap
I don't blame him for being emotional. Put yourself in your shoes, you're the biggest champ on Raw, you're constantly outperforming your peers on the mic and in the ring - and then you get jobbed out in a few seconds so a segment of the adult fans can feel like little children again. It must feel like everything he does is worthless.
Yeah. I never really bought the guy that posts adorable pics of him and his family, and has a great sense of humor and a soft heart as an evil, foaming at the mouth heel.
This is so silly, fuck that you could buy him as a foaming at the mouth heel if he was a better foaming at the mouth heel. "He loves his family how can I buy him Some a villain" what? This why sometimes people need to let kayfabe lead their viewing experience and not dirtsheets and social media.
As a long time fan of both I would love to see these two paired up, but unwillingly. Every now and again the WWE pulls a tag team out of their ass. This would be one of those teams that would make sense. They hate one another vs, but when paired they are the greatest tag team that the WWE has yet to offer.
This is why the damn buisness has gone soft. Two pansies cryin' about their damn history.
Back in the day the only time we cried was when the zero's on our damn paychecks were missin' and we couldn't feed our damn families. But we did this sh*t because we loved it and never broke kayfabe infront of the fans.
Nobodies a fan these days, everybody's a damn mark.
I'm surprised a 'you deserve it' chant didn't break out.
