Dat Finish to the Battleground Main Event

[23Barrettcity]

When you can't have a finish in a feud that already has had a ton of fukk finishes, then you don't book that match. There were ways to book this PPV without Bryan and Orton fighting for the title.

And fukk, if you are gonna book another fukk finish, at least make it interesting and not revolve around a third player that's gonna add nothing to table.

This is turning into the ryback situation all over again . They would of been better off with a double 3 count from both refs and then Bryan laying out orton and celebrating to end or vice versa . At this point it'd be more believable if punk walked in and won the belt

just playin devil's advocate bruh

the problem with that is the title would still be vacant and if not Bryan and Orton fighting for the title then who currently should fight for it?

A vacant title, two competitors and the new champion would only be able to get it by pinfall or submission. A DQ on either side wouldn't crown a new champ and the only other option would be HHH handing it back to Orton.

How about not rushing the Ryback/Punk match and give him the title shot while D-Bry has to fight Ambrose in a stip match (title opportunity vs career or something like that). Or, if you are debuting a new PPV, how about a big ass tag match with Rhodes/Ziggler/Bryan vs Shield/Orton?

You can leave the title vacant when there's so little time between PPVs brehs. You are gonna devalue the thing anyway if you have to keep booking fukk finishes.

Punk / Bryan had screwy finishes a few times you just have to make the fans see such a great competitive match that you want the feud to continue not this on the fly random makes no sense and pisses off everyone . This isn't the territories days and we can stream ppvs you have to really give the fans the money's worth .

It kinda makes sense considering if either Bryan or Orton won that match the angle would've ended TANIGHT, dawg.

Bryan winning: Orton really looks bad amidst his return to the sadistic viper only to lose his first title match as a full on sadist. Also, third time's the charm and yet another screwy title stripping would hurt Bryan and the angle itself.

Orton winning: what incentive would Orton as well as the Mcmahons have for giving Bryan yet another shot after he beat Bryan with no championship advantage, this would be his fourth straight title opportunity and no one wants to see the same main event four PPVs in a row I don't care who you are. It'd be Sheamus/ADR all over again. Also HHH would've came out of this angle the winner.

actually,...the storyline of db versus orton was over months ago on smackdown.
when, db annihilated orton, clean in a hardcore match.
I only had no issue with this situation because before the finish of this match.
everything was booked by the x's and o's for orton, to go over here.
then, to go over at hiac.
which would have cemented orton as the top heel.
of which the wwe needed, with no sign of a face turn in sight.
to, help get db over for the long term chase angle as a bf for the wm title win.

now, we are in a weird little arena where....
orton if he goes over at hiac..
will never look dominate, even if he squashed db in a viscious beating at hiac.
all because it will look like orton was not bad ass enough over a length of time.
that harkens back to his past character and brings him full circle as a fully top level and over me heel.
this was the time, for cripple ache to have orton mirror his wm2000 leadup building and bookings.
having this finish made no exact sense and big show's momentum and convincability with the punch was ruined during the sheamus/show angle.
after show, was actually entertaining again.
when allowed to work in a situation that makes some actual sense for his character, given the content at that time.

this time,..after they ruined that content.
they make another errant decision to hurt show, even more in this rick steiner fights, bray Wyatt's pappy style booking.
right now,...
this big show angle is in no way shape or form as memorable or as high in quality leading up to payoff as steiner over mike Syracuse.

I don't believe they thought people would be satisfied with that finish. What's unbelievable is that they thought that finish would make people care a bout another Bryan vs Orton title match and interested on what will happen to the Big Show.
It's amazing to me how clueless they are in terms of stretching things out in an angle. They take the most complicated and moronic paths to advance storylines that only need simplicity.

Punk / Bryan had screwy finishes a few times you just have to make the fans see such a great competitive match that you want the feud to continue not this on the fly random makes no sense and pisses off everyone . This isn't the territories days and we can stream ppvs you have to really give the fans the money's worth .

what I find funny about the decision is...
the wwe acts like they are so in the know and current.
when it comes to multimedia and online as a marketing tool and experience.
they should never be making pisspoor booking decisions like these.

this is taking the revenue grab booking decision of wm2ooo.
by having cripple ache go over the rock and damaging the sentimental impression of mania to the fanbase.
just so, they could publically say they wanted to milk the rock title win payoff, for a longer stretch payday wise.

when, if we judge what the wwe does.
when an undesireable element physically presents itself in the E, as over on the me level.
they find some way publically to spin the pr on their outcomes in their favor as being good for business.
when really,..it is just this publically traded deflection based excuse as a company.
that hides its bigotry and has issues with certain images being the face of their product.

In my eyes this feud is over . Wwe could of built the new corporation with hhh and orton but once again that would of required hhh to take the humiliations and ass whipping me McMahon took. Which we know isn't happening to a guy that just beat Brock lesnar at mania they should of gave orton back the title after the last ppv and got more heat by making dbry earn a future title shot and work his way up until hiac . Instead hhh made sure you knew from jump orton was just a lackey and then hhh turned tweener by feeding the shield to the faces .
They have the fans the payoff of seeing the faces win way too early and on regular tv !! shyt is a cluster fukk

what's funny is,....
cripple ache would have been huge,....
if he booked himself as completely vulnerable, to d bry.
In the punk feud,..
that was naturally setup for cripple ache to be booked as the vulnerable loser heel.
that loses the pedigree, to punk.
what does cripple ache do,....
instead of going for the real draw long term.
which could have relaunched him as a really over heel in ring and as a vulnerable coo onscreen.
instead,..we get the same wack cripple ache bullshyt.
we have gotten angle wise.
since, he had the cutoff going nose to nose with taker, and failing to bury mick, and the rock.

Honestly after they stripped D-Bry of the title after Night of Champions they should have used that moment to bring back the King of the Ring Tournamet ppv to crown the king the WWE Championship and made everyone happy with D-Bry giving flying knees to everyone. But instead we got a random ass created ppv with a random ass finish.

It's called laziness...it's apart of every Cripple H program outside of the year 1998 and 2000.

That would have been incredible

 

[Mic-Nificent]

That was some shyt you'd expect from a TNA PPV..

 

[PopOnCloud9]

I don't to know how this makes anyone want to watch Hell In A Cell. After spending weeks trying to defend this storyline, this was the nail in the coffin. Shout out to the Rhodes boys and The Shield for carrying the ppv. Makes me wish that Raw was in a smark city tonight.

 

[Project Downtime]

Why is that poster on TSC can create and plan out better storylines, fued, and PPV that the WWE?
BTW: When the WWE release this craptatular PPV (and they will), it better be a buy one get one free deal.

 

[ML29]

You agreeing that punks better ? Ok cool

lol, he saying Bryan is better. Bryan's matches with Ryback have been widely regarded by fans and wwe people alike as Ryback's best matches ...ever period. Other than the ladder match on Raw all the punk/ryback matches have been mediocre at best.

 

[AquaCityBoy]

Their not building anyone as the face of anything. Their just killing time until Cena comes back to get is belt.

That's BS. They've already built a HUGE star with this storyline.
