NWK Reviews (semi-live) Extreme Rules 2014

Post by NWK2000 » May 4th, '14, 21:50

Pre-show: Wee-LC match
El Torito w/ Los Matadores vs Hornswoggle
-Apparently there's a mini-announce team, which is actually a solid team.
-Torito sells the shit out of a Hornswoggle clothesline
-Jesus, a minipowerbomb that actually looks painful.
-One fo the Matadores takes a painful looking bump through a little table.
-Hehehe, a mini announce table bump
-Props to live crowd for being a great sport about this match
-JESUS Slater takes a bump through like six tables
-SHIT, they just took a bump through like a ladder, and like two tables.
-MCINTYRE JUST DID A TAKER DIVE THROUGH A TABLE WHAT?
-Senton through a TABLE
7.5/10 for some great spots

Zeb Coulter tells us that people with the attitudes of RVD/Cesaro/Heyman will kill our country, but Swagger is a real American, Swagger's going to win, and they're going to get out of town as fast as they can.

We get a cool video packages about Empires v Rebels, Demons vs Heroes, Honor v. the Destroyer, each symbolizing one of the marquee feuds.
Triple Threat Elimination Match: RVD vs. Cesaro w/ Paul Heyman vs Jack Swagger w/ Zeb Coulter

-I really hope Cesaro turns "If you hear the sirens, seek shelter" into a catchphrase
- I really hope Cesaro uses the Spinebuster to lead into the Swing.
-CESARO SPRINGBOARD UPPERCUT WHAT
-Rolling Suplexes by Cesaro.
-I like how Cesaro tried for a barricade dive, so it set up the RVD leg drop.
-Great match in general
7.75/10

Daniel Bryan is getting checked out by the doctor, she feigns being afraid for D-Bry's health, and admits she can't control the demon. She offers Daniel Bryan the ability to surrender the WWE Title, he tells Steph to get out and that he will walk out, Steph says he's going to be Kane's beyyotch

Another great Bo vignette
Lana comes out, and her having a theme is the most brilliant thing ever. She says she dedicates this match to Vladimir Putin, before putting him way over, this get huge heat. Putin's face is even on the jumbotron.
Alexander Rusev w/ Lana vs R-Truth and Xavier Woods
-Rusev starts this thin by kicking Woods in the back of the head and T-Bon e suplexing him on the floor.
- Oooh R-Truth gets some offense in, but yet another win for Rusev.
-I like that they're capitalizing fo the Russian conflict.
6.5/10

Evolution gets interviewed. Triple H says that Evolution rightfully has egos, he also puts over Evolution. They mock Shield's pose as well..
Bad News Barrett vs Big E Langston for the IC Title
-Another great promo by Barrett
-Jerry's idea of "Bad News at 11" is the best idea he's ever had.
-TORNADO SNAP SUPLEX WHAT
-SPEAR TAKING BOTH GUYS THROYGH THE ROPWS WHAT
-Yeee Big E just used the Joe turnbuckle Urinage
-YAY BARRET WON
That flying Bullhammer
5.5/10

Man, I wanna party on the Exotic Express
Evolution vs The Shield
-HNNNNG that staredown
-That clearing the ring
-That clothesline sell
-Ooooh a babyface comeback cut off
-Even a false finish with the Triple Powerbomb
-OH SHIT, diving move into the Time Keepr's area
-Seth Rollins dove out of the stands onto HHH/and Orton holy crap.
-Hooray a Shield win
8/10 for a really fun brawl

John Cena vs Bray Wyatt Steel Cage match
-Cena not climbing out as not to go into the other Wyatt family members was great
-I like the pace of this match, plys some good cage spots
-YAY Wyatt's doing the full waltz
-This whole match begs the question. Why would Cena try to escape? Why wouldn't he just pin Bray? Bray escaping at least makes sense
- Cena getting choked in the bottom rope was pretty a awesome
-JESUS TERRIFYING KID
The fact that they used a kid to spook Cena was GREAT
7.5/10
Paige vs Tamina for the WWE Divas Title
-Paige avoiding Tamina's shit in the early going was awesome
- Tamina beating the crap out of Paige outside the ring gives the whole avoidance strategy some credit
-Oooh, the Kong swing into the barricade thing
-Off the top rope powerbomb
-I hope these two get more time in the future
5/10

Kane vs. Daniel Bryan
-Hooray we're srarting right away.
-That Crossbody over the top.
-Even though he missed it, off the top rope weapon shots are my favorite thing.
-Someone finally used the announce table coveras a rweapon
-Daniel Bryan using everything as a weapon is fucking great
- This match is reminding me of Halftime Heat and I can't decide if I love or hate it
-FORKLIFT HEADBUTT
-Daniel Bryan beating Kane with a chair=great
-Kane sliding out of the ring off the yes lock=great
-NO, BURNING TABLE FUCK
-JESUS
-HOW DID HE NO SELL ALL OF THAT
-I hope this feud continues
8.75/10
Final thoughts
Great PPV, all of the people who I wanted to win one, great matches all around. I will definetly rewatch it.

I can see why you would. But I liked it because
1. It has legitimately intrigued, enough to tune into Raw to see where this goes.
2. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the horror aspect of pro wrestling, and so this Wyatt Family angle is perfect in every way in my eyes.
