I should point out that although I got screwed this year, I have been to WM's in the past. Got to go to WM 10 at MSG. Got to go to WM 12 to see Shawn win the title for the first time, as well, and WM 14 in Boston. Also, got to go to WM 19 (Shawn's first WM in 5 years, vs. Jericho), WM 24, 25, and 26. Just haven't been to one since then. All of those up to and including WM 19 were birthday presents from my parents, since my birthday is in late March. WM 24, 25, and 26 I paid for myself and went with some friends those years.

 

There were whispers here and there about Rollins finally cashing in at some point but I don't think anyone thought the main event of WM. It was "brilliant"! Such a feel good moment, even if he was a heel.

 

I had a feeling Seth was cashing in at Mania but I didn't expect it DURING the main event :lol I was like "Seth you brilliant bastard" haha.

EDIT: LOL I got hit by the chatbox name changing thing lol, I'm not Ambrose Girl right now :lmao

 

There was pretty much no talk of Seth cashing in on here going into WM 31. I didn't see it as a possibility, either. I was just as shocked as everyone else when watching. Then, as it was happening, I was worried they'd have him fail. But thankfully they didn't. It was a great WM moment for any era, that's for sure.

 

Most shocking cash-in for me. Or at least up there. I really didn't think there was any chance of Seth cashing in at the Main Event of WrestleMania. I still to this day appreciate that booking decision. When WWE actually tries, they know how to do amazing things & produce shocking moments.

Hell, I was gobsmacked the other day when I saw Bryan holding the WWE Title and heard that he turned HEEL. If you'd told me that would happen after he was cleared, I would have said no chance in hell. :vince

 

LOL I remember when the dick pic thing happened the dirtsheets said Seth wouldn't be cashing in MITB "anytime soon". Like a month later he was champion. Shows what they fuckin' knew :lmao

 

Vince would've looked like a giant hypocrite, given his past and his daughter's, punishing Seth because he got caught cheating and his ex went batshit crazy online. I remember when everyone thought Seth was going to get fired because of it :lol

 

I just realized the irony of me talking about Seth's dick pics when my username has 'send nudes pls' in it right now :lmao

I remember that day that it happened clearly, cos the news of it broke during Raw, and I abandoned following it to follow the Seth drama haha.

 

I would love to go to WM just to see what it's like but living in the UK it will be very expensive. I've only seen Seth once back when he was a heel and he was fighting Jack Swagger I'd love to see him win a title in person

 

So Becky owns Seth in the real world, and Dakota owns Seth in the virtual world .

 

Now THIS is a faceoff I can get behind :lol Dakota and Seth? :mark:

 

6 years ago today, the Shield debuted on TV:



People can say whatever they want about the Shield reunions. But the original Shield from 2012-2014?

:banderas

 

Seth called Dean 'babe' in Dean's special :lol

Dean and Seth's real life friendship is so cute.

 

For whatever reason people seem to think that Seth and Dean weren't really friends because Dean and Roman were road buddies and Seth never travels with them :lmao

 

I hate not being excited for a Rollins match. Naka does absolutely nothing for me.

Rollins was such a kid in Dean's documentary. He seems at ease, finding his groove again. I hope the momentum picks up for his feud with Dean. They should be driving the creative direction on RAW IMO.

I was watching the Gargano match and got goosebumps thinking about the two of them wrestling a match. Unless they already have and I missed it.

 

SETH JUST GOT A HUGE POP!!!!! And the Burn it Down was loud as fuck, too!!!!

 

I am really surprised Seth won that match clean. Totally not what I was expecting. I'm glad he won but I was expecting him to lose due to Dean interference or Nakamura deciding he wants to attack his nuts.

I'm also surprised at no Dean at all. I really hope WWE isn't slacking on the storyline already, despite Dean's documentary doing good stuff for both Dean and Seth.

 

That match was comfortably better than I thought it would be. Only complaint is the pace was a tad slow for my liking. Match was moving well, but then Nak does what he does on main roster WWE, and slows the match down with a rest-hold. Ugh. Aside from that, match was better than I had it being and I overall enjoyed it. Also was nice to see Seth get a win. Prior to this match, Seth was only 7-5 on PPV this year, and that includes Super Showdown where he was part of a 6 man tag with the Shield, so it's not like it was a singles win for him. Now, he's 8-5, which is nowhere near dominant, but is at least more wins than losses. I would've liked to have see Dean interfere after Seth won, but oh well.

Also, as I posted in here as it happened, check out Seth's pop when his music hits. Biggest pop he's had since pre-Shield reunion. LA loves him. And the 'Burn it Down' was one of the loudest ever, too. Overall, very happy with Seth's night.

 

Kinda wish there was a segment on Raw tomorrow (or in the coming weeks) that would've lead up to the announcement of Seth vs Dean at TLC instead of Charly just ambushing Seth with it. But it is what it is. Will be interesting how WWE goes about it.

Peeked into the SS discussion thread and the reaction to Seth's match seem to be on the negative side. More so that it was kinda blah. Honestly, both guys needed the win but I'm happy to see Seth won tonight. He needs to start building up some momentum again going into TLC.

 

I quite liked the match, it was entertaining although some parts where a bit slow.

I'm assuming that the dean match will become a TLC match, well hopefully anyway

 

"Ambrose is all that matters". You read my mind, Sethie :lol

 

For their first match together EVER, and it being on a big stage on PPV, Rollins/Nak definitely exceeded my expectations. I wouldn't hate another match between the two at a later date in the future when both are in a better place booking-wise. Just wish the pace was alittle quicker. But other than that, I enjoyed it.

 

i missed the hell evil laugh

 

Fantastic night of development for this storyline. Loved the short backstage segments with Seth seeking Dean out. Happy WWE decided to make Seth aggressive and not the route of him not wanting to fight his brother. Good decision there. We need more aggressive faces like that these days.

Dean got pretty big heat when he came out to the ring and Seth got a big pop when he came out. Loved it. Dean definitely is getting heat and Seth is definitely getting cheered. No more BS false narratives regarding that aspect. Good brawl. Could've went alittle longer but that LONG ass commercial break right before this segment started took up a crazy amount of time. DUMB.

 

I'm SO glad they finally brawled. We needed some physicality for this feud and we finally got it. Nicely done. Too bad it was a bit rushed cos of no overrun, that was a time the overrun could have helped. Seth looked like he was literally running his ASS off to get out there in time :lmao

I was also glad about the multiple segments cos the one lone segment every week wasn't enough for me.

 

There's still some time to build so hopefully they can find a reason to make it a Ladder match at TLC. I hate it when WWE has a big match at a gimmick PPV and the match has no stipulation.

 

Just want to take a moment to appreciate Seth's sell on the Dirty Deeds.



Honestly I kind hate gimmick PPVs like TLC where feuds have to structure round a match type, when it should be the other way around. PPV's like MITB and EC are fine because there's a big prize on the line.

But as far as Seth and Dean go, I don't really need to see them in a ladder match or TLC match just because it's December. If you to throw a gimick in there, just make it a street fight or something.

 

I think there's a good chance Seth-Dean close TLC, likely will be a TLC match and it appears to be the top feud on Raw.
