Let's discuss the way HIAC ended.

[Breh Obama]

I don't get it....yall know very damn well Braun was NOT going to win. Yet....so many people were upset at the match ending in a no contest. So y'all really wanted a clean Roman victory over Braun?
Y'all would have complained 10 times more if that was the outcome.

IWC is stupid

It wouldnt have been a clean victory, there was a ton of interference. Brock even F5'd Roman and he landed on top of Braun. They should have just counted that as the 3 count. Ending a Cell match in a No Contest makes no sense, it's like running a last man standing latch and ending it with a submission. Plus having the other 4 guys run out there for no real reason just to do the Cell spots makes Roman and Braun look weak, both kayfabe and shoot.

They just shouldn't have had them in the HiaC, shoulda gave it to someone else.

If you’re really arguing that it’s better that Brock shows up and makes both Reigns and Braun look like shyt and renders the other four involved completely irrelevant than Roman winning (with Shield fukkery helping obviously), then

All WWE did last night was make it clear yet again that Brock is above all these dudes and everyone y’all see every week, even after all this time, still can’t compare with him. There’s nothing good or justifiable about that at this point.

You forgot that Heyman pepper sprayed Mick Foley

It's whatever, WWE has gone full Russo with fukk finishes in title matches for the past year that you don't even bat an eye at it anymore. Especially when there's always a PPV or special event 2 weeks later to have the rematch at.

There's nothing good or justifiable about Roman being champ. How much better would a win from Roman been? It would be boring and lame as fukk. This opens the door for much more. Smh at y'all actually giving a fukk about the ending to this already bullshyt garbage match. This shyt was terrible to begin with and no outcome other than Braun winning would have been good and worthwhile

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

was that the cash in?

 

[Breh Obama]

"Omg how dare WWE end a Hell In A Cell match in a no contest. How dare they make this forced Roman push and title reign which doesn't make sense at all not make any more sense."




Y'all know damn well nothing on Raw including match finishes matter

 

[NoMorePie]

A hell in a cell match...

Where Shane McMahon can kill himself from the top of the cell but still be "ok" to finish the match

Where Foley can get thrown straight down to hell and still somehow but "ok" to finish the match

Where Shane McMahon again can kill himself from the top of the cell but still be "ok" to finish the match

Where Jeff Hardy can commit suicide and go swinging off the top of the cell and crash land into a table but still be "ok" to finish the match to completion




But Stroman and Reigns are apparently unable to finish a match because Lesnar came in and whacked them with broken pieces of a table?

 

[CM_Burns]

I knew it wasn't gonna be a decisive finish either way, so I didn't give a fukk about this Brock run in. If McIntyre cheated to help Braun win I promise I wouldn't have enjoyed the show and match more.

Honestly, yes I would rather Roman have thrown an arm over and gotten the count. Would it STILL have been lame? Sure. But to not have it end at all, when Hell in a Cell's have typically had a LOT more punishment that people have gotten up from wasn't just lame. It was (as this company tend to be) insulting. shyt, these characters have gotten up from much worse.

Maybe we're naive to expect them to NOT do that, but on this night almost everything else was above average. So that ending was just like "really breh..." and really just could have been done in a less insulting, Russo fukkery manner.

Braun/Roman have arguably provided each other their best feuds. So while a Braun loss was expected, I also expected some carnage from them. And I got like 10 minutes of it, then these motherfukkers were down for EIGHT minutes so they could overbook/smoke and mirrors the shyt.

EDIT: I couldn't even get a standing 10 count though? Like help me here, WWE. I just want it to make sense.

Pinfall or submission only

This shyt was terrible to begin with and no outcome other than Braun winning would have been good and worthwhile

The only thing this opens the door to is Brock either cleanly jobbing out Braun in a singles match or making both Braun and Reigns look like shyt again in a triple threat (but probably not winning the belt, because hey why not devalue that even further?) at Saudi Series... all while barely showing up in the run to and disappearing right after.

Last night, they couldn’t even give Braun a real monster spot and completely made a fall from the cage pointless because they had to make sure barely part time, off to UFC Brock’s run-in shone above the six de facto top guys on Raw, but you wanna stay focusing 100% on Reigns being the entire problem here.
