Loved both matches.


Indifferent about Dean facing Orton on SD though as I dislike him with a passion.
I loved the matches as well and I agree about Orton. Usually I fast forward whenever I hear his theme song start, but I just got up to do the dishes and listened to the match in the background. It's more bearable that way when Orton's involved.

That face Dean made in that gif was interesting. A total "You talkin' to me?" gesture goin on there.

What a performance by Rollins tonight. Out of all of these Shield/Hell No tag matches (and including the 6 man matches), my favorite (and IMO, the best) parts of all of these matches have been the Rollins/Bryan segments when in they're in the ring together. Those two have some incredible chemistry with eachother. And it really flashed tonight. I really hope they have a singles match together sometime. Rollins' character work during the match tonight with taunting Bryan in between moves by calling him "the weak link" was also great.

I think Rollins is one of the better all around performers in the company already. Bryan is obviously better, and should be with all of the WWE experience he has over Rollins at this point. But man, Rollins keeps bringing it every week, whether it be in the ring, on the mic, or his character work. A singles feud between Rollins and Bryan is a must sometime in the future. Anyway, it's time for Rollins to get some more recognition. He brings it every week.

I agree. Him doing the surfboard submission on Bryan and even mocking him with the "YES!" pose was one of the better moments of the match. I know the whole group has gotten a lot of praise on this board, but Rollins on his own has been very underrated in my opinion. I definitely prefer him to Reigns, and think he might even be the best out of all of them in-ring wise.
 
#2,297 ·
Rollins is def underrated. I remember the days when he would cut a good promo and you had numerous ppl talk about he's forcing it or he is just terrible. He has improved in all facets yet still doesnt get much praise. Ive had them in this order from the beginning :ambrose :rollins :reigns

Roman gets alot of love cuz his look,his family and because he does a couple things that have him standout.

Good matches all around from the guys last night.

But Orton vs Ambrose on Smackdown :mark: :mark:

From Kingston to Randy? What a come up!

I think this is one time I'm gonna spoil myself and find out the results before it airs on Friday.

And to the people complaining about the gifs? Welcome to The Shield thread. Where all three members are extremely fuckable and the girls and guys in this thread occassionally express their desire to do so. If human sexuality is not your thing please feel free to find your way out.

How long has it been since a US Championship match was given some sort of pride of place on Raw? Or Kofi Kingston treated like a legitimate contender to anything? It's happening how I guessed it would -- The Shield is giving other guys on their place in the card some raison d'etre. I'm all for it!
 
#2,326 ·
My fucking god!!
I came in here to say how awesome Ambrose was yesterday with his epic movements and how I enjoyed dat Tag Team match...
(And fucking awesome signs in the crowd!)

...and then I read Orton vs. Ambrose???????????? :mark: :mark: :mark: HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!! :mark: :mark: :mark: I didn't even noticed that announcement!

Foley talks about Dean Ambrose:
Mick Foley Busted Open Interview said:
Did he know Dean Ambrose would be a major star: "I knew they were really high on him. Dean was probably happier with the break with the Shield and I was the second happiest to see him get that break. I cannot physically wrestle anymore. That break that I thought I was going to be a part of, was just not going to happen. Dean would be at every TV taping, so I would see him and say, 'hey how are things going? Anything on the horizon?' and he would be like, 'no man, not yet.

"I felt personally responsible. So when he said 'yeah they had something', I asked, 'is it pretty good?' He said, 'Yeah it's pretty good'. Ironically his career would have really suffered had he done the run with me. It would have been a nice boost, but then he would have been on his own from that point. Getting over long term is really, really difficult. These guys not only did they come up slowly, by the time they had their first match at TLC they blew everybody away at the Barclay's Center. All three guys have the potential to be major stars. I couldn't be happier for Ambrose. He is kind of a weird dude, but it works to his advantage. I've described his style as disturbingly poetic. The way that he moves, he is so fluid. William Regal was the guy that was so high on him. He said 'he is everyone's perfect opponent for the next ten years.'"

It's kinda sad that Foley can't wrestle anymore, but guess it was better this way. :)
Foley vs Ambrose would have been SICK tho.. especially the build up. THOSE PROMOS!!! :mark: :mark: :mark:

I would have loved for Dean & Foley feud i remember talking about it in the Dean Ambrose thread, But seeing what Dean's done right now with the Shield i think it was best for his Career.

this thread took a hard left onto gay ave. i was really into dean ambrose when the shield started doing their promos cuz he makes the best crazy faces. since they started wrestling a lot more frequently, i've really been impressed by seth rollins. he's kinda tall, but is an athletic high flyer type sorta. it's weird to see someone so tall be that type. he shit talks really well during the matches too. he's really impressed me.

the shield as a whole and daniel bryan are the only good things in the wwe right now. well, besides looking at aj, the bellas, and the black dancer's bodies.

The smell of estrogen whenever I take a peek into this thread could tame a raging bull in mating season.

Anyway, with regards to the SD spoilers

I don't think it's a big deal that Rollins lost really, the whole point of The Shield is that their real strength lies in their teamwork/solidarity and them working as a unit. Losing the occasional one on one match shouldn't hurt them too much. Besides, it makes for much more interesting storytelling when the other side is able to pick up wins too.

Yeah I actually don't mince words on an internet forum. Don't care about the red squares I'll receive. I can be a real darling though, when not interacting with gun-jumping feminazis and their Order of White Knights. But In the face of such BLATANT stupidity, unfairness, and stereotyping( I could be a woman or gay but everyone jumped on the "hurt durr he's a hypocrite who posts about AJ all the time" shortbus).

oh and if I did try to make my "own"( for the record you don't own this fucking thread sweetheart) it'd be closed in an instant and merged with "The Shield's Appearance Thread" anyway.

I've gotta get this off my chest.Orton is probably one of the WORST workers on the roster. and I mean it. he drains all the excitement out of a match and sells like shit. his lack of fucks even make ambrose look like shit for 3/4 of the match before it picks up during the comeback. Orton has a habit of not caring until that moment and it made the pace slow down to a snails fucking pace. he ruins any intensity unless its for his own self interest and he never looks like hes fighting, he makes it look choreographed. the compete opposite of what you try to do as a wrestler. Ambrose did a solid job at playing his character and his over all performance on the roster.

however that ending with Bryan...I marked out.
 
#2,505 ·
I havent watched SD fully yet but.....



DANIEL FUCKING BRYAN! :mark: :mark: :mark:

I watched the ending and HOLY FUCKING SHIT. Bryan is on such a huge roll right now. Absolutely loving what they are doing with him at the moment and as long as he STAYS FACE i'll continue to do so.

Re: The Rock Says Roman Reigns Will Be A Future WWE Champion

I have a strong feeling about this too. Besides both being related, Samoan, same height, muscular and have similar tattoos, they were both in dominate stables. Not only that, but they are both the breakout stars of their stables. So they clearly have a lot in common with each other and I have a feeling that Roman will undoubtedly be the face of the company one day. He has everything, the good looks, charisma, stage presence, mic skills(still needs a bit of work) and good etiquette(see twitter). Roman just needs to keep his head focused and not screw up.
