PaperThinWalls Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 Ok, I guess I’ll be the first to say it... That was in fact The Greatest Wrestling Match Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creepia Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 The Viking Raider/Street Profit thing was the best part of the show. The main event was good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEGION Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 I say it would be hard to call it the best match of the week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy. Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 EDGE IS THE *censored*ING GOAT Seriously, I don't care if I'm exaggerating, but that was match of the year for me. Forget all the marketing, forget what you normally expect from an Orton match, forget everything. That was *censored*ing awesome. Y'all know how much I *censored*ing love Edge and to see him put on that performance in his first traditional wrestling match in over nine years was a sight to behold. EVERYTHING about that match was perfect, from busting out the moves of some of the greatest ever (in the 'Greatest Wrestling Mach Ever') to Orton basically resorting to his usual despicable self to win the match that he himself selected purely because of his belief in his wrestling ability. The storytelling was immense. And Edge, man. I don't care if I'm being biased but that was one of his greatest ever performances considering everything. People often forget just how important an aspect storytelling is in wrestling but those two served a very important reminder with the masterpiece they put on. Yes, it wasn't actually the 'Greatest Wrestling Match Ever'. But it was still a freaking fantastic match and the very best of this year, and one that deserved to be contested in front of thousands. Props to both men. But especially Edge, after everything he's been through. My legend. My GOAT. Give me my rubber match at SummerSlam. I'm so ready. EDIT: Welp, just read that he tore his tricep and could be out for 4-6 months. Well *Censored*, I guess that's the last we saw of him this year Maybe another Royal Rumble return?! With that out of the way, the rest of the show was pretty good too. Not a single boring match apart from Asuka/Nia but again, it's Nia we're talking about so I didn't expect anything better. Just a shame it ended in a double countout because that means she's gonna continue being in the title picture for the time being. Oh well. McIntyre/Lashley was surprisingly good. Easily Lashley's best match in years. I don't like him but that was good. Strowman/M&M was fun. Sheamus/Hardy was quite good, even if slow at times. Hopefully this feud is continuing because I've liked what I've seen so far. Opener was fun too so was the Street Profits/Viking Raiders stuff. Quality show.

PaperThinWalls Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 Edge/Orton was fantastic. Awesome pacing and really well thought-out. I didn't care for the fake crowd noise and the callbacks got maybe a little too cute at the end but overall I loved the match. It's definitely a contender for WWE MOTY so far.

The Nerd Posted June 16, 2020 Report Share Posted June 16, 2020 Finally got around to watching Backlash. Edge vs Randy was truly amazing. Very impressed with how they shot the match, the opening and both men proved why they’re legends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy. Posted June 17, 2020 Report Share Posted June 17, 2020 Yeah, Edge/Orton was better than Styles/Bryan for me. Both were *censored*ing fantastic though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 17, 2020 Report Share Posted June 17, 2020 You know what's *censored*ing crazy? Edge/Orton went 8 mins longer than their Mania match but it doesn't feel like it lol Also, just noticed how little Randy's wrestled since the quarantine. And he's still one of the best things on the show right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
