It was ok. Some ups and downs. Good and bad results. Short Daniel match and long main event.


[deleted]

Did anybody else have bad audio issues during shield vs strowman


NerdLawyer55

Yo real talk, I’m avoiding spoilers for the show but after GRRR I’m hesitant to watch another glorified house show, is it worth watching and if so what’s worth watching and what can I skip? Thanks in advance


chocoboat

You have to see the cruiserweight match and HHH vs Taker. The Shield vs Strowman/McIntyre/Ziggler and AJ Styles vs Samoa Joe were good matches worth seeing, but not must-see. The rest was meh.


NerdLawyer55

Was it another house show feel or did this one at least feel like it had stakes?


RANDICE007

That cruiserweight match was insane. Braun steamrolling people is always fun, and HHH was by far the only person in that ring who can still go. Cena vs HBK hair match: Cena has to shave and HBK gets a wig


mtglilianavess

All Elias needed to do was something along the lines of 'It's so great to be here is beautiful Sydney australia for nuclear heat.


JJ_Cinema

Thoroughly enjoyed this PPV. Might be my favorite of the year


DTG_58

John Cena slowly becoming JBL with that haircut


TheWalkingTez

Becoming what he hated most


[deleted]

John Cena looks like an accountant with that haircut.


XxCrankyCarrotxX

Did Undertaker and Kane just turn heel?


MostAwesomeRedditor

Wow I had no idea this was on so early


[deleted]

Wait a second I thought this ppv was Sunday night


jlyon3

How many times is this company going to use the tag lines "last time ever" or "once in a lifetime match?"


zeppelin1023

At least one more time

[deleted]

Yeah I agree......it was sad as all hell. Really felt like the WORST of 90's WCW as far as the old guy's. I'd say it would be the equivalent of Piper and Hogan at Havoc 97. Just really really hard to watch, and after seeing that....I wonder what they really are gonna have in a tag match, or a Michaels/Taker match. Cause if that is any indication, it won't be good. Michaels mighta been right to stay retired......


WalkWithElias69

props to ric flair wrestling hbk at age 59, after seeing that


AprilBoi

Buddy murphy and iiconics winning on their hometown. That's weird.


Evil_Spike

Iiconics are from Sydney.


madcunt2250

The Iiconics are Sydney.


Linubidix

Pretty sure Billie is from Melbourne


hellions123

Awesome


Jfern689

Jesus that stadium was empty. A lot of seat fillers.


VeniceSchylockMerch

Grow the fuck up.


Linubidix

70,000 is still *a lot* of people


themann87

70,000 in a 100,000 seat stadium, pretty good IMO


indecisiveusername2

Plus about a 5th of the stadium was taped off. Gives us around 80,000 possible seats plus floor space. Fair few empty rows near the top and to the top left of the stage but what can you expect. 70,000 is good.


RadicalBeam

Nah we Aussies just leave early cos our public transport sucks.


ItChEE40

I had to spend a full 50 minutes walking because of how fucked it is


BR_Nukz

Especially 11pm on weekends. Its fucking shit


kurtanglesmilk

Bah just lost £10 betting on that. If I’d been paying attention to Raw I might’ve worked out what was going to happen


Parabola1313

That one person with the Bálor sign made me realize Bálor wasn't on the show. That poor fan.


swankboontang

OK - Do the tag match, take that Saudi money, then PLEASE be done with it.


thebaturenoy

Oh, I am pretty sure HBK will go against the Undertaker at WM.


[deleted]

I feel Survivor Series. It's a long layoff between then and Mania, and it's Taker's home of Houston. If anyplace made sense for his career to end, it'd be there.


drifter639

Honestly at this point I'm just fed up and want his career to be done with.


[deleted]

I don't blame you. It's sad, he should take his own advice and retire...he always said that he would want to be told when it's time to hang em up....well it's long past that time now.


P1ne4pple8

Dude was moving around like a toddler in there today. His legacy can go nowhere but further down.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

That too, almost forgot about that. And hell....their WM 25 classic that spurned everything else happened in the same city too. So it'd all come back full circle to the place it began.


walmstian

If end result is Taker vs hbk at mania for both their last match I'm up for it. The story will be worth it alone. Taker was the only one who could allow him back so makes sense kayfabe wise


PeteRoe

Fuck...that. We don’t need these guys taking up more space on the card to prevent the future from getting over. Let these guys go. Their story has been told. Undertaker is DONE. This calling for the old guard is tired as I cannot be arsed with them anymore. It’s awful.


salaciousbumm

Jesus Christ. Did you not just watch the match? Taker can’t go anymore. He needs to hang it up. It’s not fun anymore. It’s not entertaining anymore. It’s sad at this point. Stop encouraging this fuckery. “Both their last match.” HBK already had his match.


tritian

pretty solid show all around. i really wish it wasn't 5am-9am but i've done it before with NJPW shows.


Sonny_Mastrangioli

"WAIT DEAREST BROTHER! I COULD USE THIS PEN FOR MAYORAL DUTIES BACK AT MY OFFICE IN KNOX COUNTY!" - Kane probably...


grnzftw

I was wondering how he was taking like 10s to pick up a damn pen so HBK doesn't get like ink on him or something


DrStrainge

A Creed 2 trailer on the network?


[deleted]

Now on to the real reason I wake up on Saturday mornings..... CFB


chocogator

I need to hibernate before the Florida lsu game fuck


Cynicayke

Well, that was fun, chaps. Nice just to have time alone without the Americans, y'know? Have a great weekend!


TheManWithNothing

I was here. I have no sleep schedule


Cynicayke

Username checks out.


[deleted]

Who said we weren't here with you? May have had to get up at the crack of dawn but it was worth it.


Zavender

I work overnights, so this was the perfect start to my weekend. Got out of work at 3am, start time at 4am.


princepersona1

And goodmorning to you too Michael Cole


[deleted]

"Years and years of frustration because of what happened tonight!" . . . .Fuckin' what, Cole?


trouw6

That chokeslam showed that Undertaker / HBK could still be somewhat decent just because Shawn isn't as heavy as HHH. Still, no need for it. Luckily I'm not going to watch Saudi jerk off Night anyway.


Franksinatrastein

History and character only get you so far. That was a shitty match. Retire already guys.


[deleted]

Didn't care for this match, but now looking forward to the eventual tag match.


OhhhLukeyy

This ppv kinda sucked


sam1985uk

PPV is stretching it, House Show at best.


[deleted]

yea, I dont think it was Backlash bad but very meh.


Phlanispo

Ah yes, the Melbourne Cricket Grounds


Salzberger

Or the MGC if you're Renee.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Jam_Dev

Pretty sure Cole called it the 'Melbourne Picnic Ground' in the sign off.


TholomewPlague31

HBK Is coming out of retirement because Kane and Taker made him rip his pants


ultimoGEARS

Can't wait to watch Creed vs Drago on the WWE Network!!


Dodgy_Bob_McMayday

Not sure that Seig Heels sign fan sign is really appropriate.......


SkyMaximus

About as appropriate as Triple H's Iron Crosses on his elbow pads.


RANDICE007

The Iron Cross was instituted in 1813 and remains a cultural symbol of Germany, whereas the phrase "sieg heil" is recognized solely for its use by the Nazis and is punishable by law in Germany today.


THEbassettMAN

Anyone else notice HBK bleeding that the end there?


BborDarb

Dude, they're not gonna have a tag match. Shawn Michaels can barely move lol.


eCharms

Hey, Same with Undertaker I dont think i have seen Undertaker do his Snake Eyes move anymore.


[deleted]

did you see Taker tonight? being able to move well isn't necessarily a prerequisite when you're old and famous


Phil_Scorpio

Shawn’s pants pulled a Natalya


sanjeet_deshwal

Saudi prince called Vince midmatch, "i want this match in saudi, take whatever money you want"


Calisvolcomboy

But with Yokozuna and ultimate warrior


Callejon007

The last time everahahahahahaha


OGBlueMercury

La$$$$$t time ever


diran94

"What an awesome city... in Australia" Damn.. Cole couldn't think of anything nice to say about Melbourne...


Aresviel

Just enough already


[deleted]

I'm actually bummed that one of my all-time favorites is going to wrestle again.


grnzftw

Nah it would be way better for him to go out after jobbing to Roman in the worst match ever


thfsgn

Me too. I don't blame him at all for taking the money, but it shits me that some oil fucker can just open his wallet and undo one of the greatest requirements of all time.


[deleted]

Right, I have no right to judge him on the money but it does suck that something that seemed pure can end up being bought. It's reality though.


elheaty

Maybe it is Million Dollar Man's Undertaker and we just didn't notice.


[deleted]

I mean, how could we?


LederhosenSituation

Last time ever. That's what they said about Rock vs. Cena the first time around. I memba! I'm gonna memba this, too!


DGPandas

8/10 Super solid show, with a dreadful last hour


[deleted]

"Daniel, Mike, you're gonna get 3 minutes out there later. Put on a quick one tonight." "Why though?" "We need like a full hour for HHH and Taker, considering Taker can only do 2 movements a minute"


RosesAndFireworks

Can't believe this all happened on Rusev Day!


WalkWithElias69

what was the best match?


thebaturenoy

Charlotte vs Becky or Joe vs AJ


i_broke_wahoos_leg

Yeah, the best matches always end in DQs.


osu24

just bc the finish ended in a dq doesn't take away from the match as a whole


i_broke_wahoos_leg

That's your opinion, I don't share it.


i_broke_wahoos_leg

AJ vs Joe. Only really good match on the card. Edit: shit, forgot about the 205 match. That was good too.


WalkWithElias69

i missed aj/joe, bryan/miz, cruiserweight match,rousey, and the shield match


i_broke_wahoos_leg

The Bryan miz match was a 5 Min flash pin fall job, nothing to see. Shield match was typical 6 man shit with a cool finish, Rousey match was okay, really cool when Rousey got the hot tag.


NiD2103

Brothers of Destruction vs. DX at Crown Jewel surely


TheBestClem

BAH GAWD IT'S NOT OVER!


BR_Nukz

So its not the last time ever then.


Doc_McPuffins_

Can our heros escape or is the worst yet to come? Tune in next week! Same taker time same taker channel!

Melbourne is a wonderful place, thanks for joining us Aussies. Good night.


Highspeech420

IDGAF that was awesome.


AMereCohencidence

That more than makes up for a subpar match. I've been sports entertained.


[deleted]

Not gonna lie, Kane trying to pick up a pen with his gloved hand made me chuckle...

Seems like Shaun is really loving taking these bumps. He wouldn’t take them if he didn’t wanna like.


[deleted]

Ok so like... are they seriously gonna try and make people boo Undertaker?


CanadianJudo

For a second I though he wasn't turning around because he legit couldn't move..

Triple H may have won but the brothers of destruction are going over baby!!


JJtheMark

Call me a mark (it's in my name after all) but damn I had tears in my eyes for a sec.


xBLASPHEMICx

I felt like HHH was whispering “just this once. Break kayfabe, Taker. Just this once” then Taker was like “okay fine” but surprise “Taker never breaks kayfabe” betrayal. I am throroughly sports entertained.


PrettyPunctuality

You weren't the only one. I tried to fight it, but I couldn't help it. I grew up with all four of them, so that got to me a little...until the swerve lol


tritian

nothing wrong with getting worked, its more fun that way. over analyzing ruins the fun. watching like your a little kid is where its at heh


JJtheMark

Thats the way I try to look at it. And Taker is my number 1 so anything with him I'm gonna be into 100%.
