Beyond the **** you finish, the chamber match was actually surprisingly good. Wyatt/Shield was fantastic. Big E/Swagger was decent and the rest sucked.

There's my review.

E: I'd suggest watching DelRio/Bootista just to watch the crowd shit on them.

**TimBone** · 02-23-2014, 10:24 PM

Bryan will end up in the Wrestlemania main event somehow.

**TimBone** · 02-23-2014, 10:24 PM

I don't care how stubborn Vince is....He has to know that Orton/Batista is not good for business.

That whole feud, the build up/match was as good as any I've ever seen in the WWE.

Wasn't a horrible PPV by any means, certainly better than the Rumble, if only for the 6-man tag. I'm not a huge tag team guy (unless it's mid-2000s TLC matches), but that was intense. Second PPV in a row Bray Wyatt's been involved in the MOTN. Would love to see him go over Cena in NO, but I know better than that.

Didn't think the Chamber match itself was bad, except for Roborton 3000 winning. Cesaro seems to be really over, which is good, he needs to break away from that hack Swagger.

I'm a huge Bryan fan. But a (small) part of me wants to see Orton vs. Bootista, just to see how much the crowd totally shits on it.

My bet is Vince goes with Plan A, we get Blandy vs. Bootista as the main event (which, on paper, has to be one of the worst ever) and Bryan gets Kane/HHH. I hope I'm wrong and they find a way to get him in the main event. Maybe Hogan finds some way to politic DB in tomorrow night? It'd be a way to get smarks to actually cheer for Hogan, if only for a little bit...

In related news, Mick Foley doesn't seem too happy...

WELL YOU SEE BROTHER, ALL THESE HULKAMANIACS WANNA SEE BATISTA AND RANDY ORH-TUN FACE OFF IN DA SQUARED CIRCLE

BY THE WAY, BROTHER, DID I EVER TELL YOU I TURNED DOWN A SPOT IN METALLICA? BROTHER.

Yep.

BryanBusby · 02-23-2014, 10:51 PM

I don't think anyone expected them to start hotshotting titles around right before Wrestlemania, but man that EC finish was a big wet fart. Dead crowd is the worst result.

The Main Event is going to be a big wet fart too with boos echoing allover the inside of a dome.

Big Poppa Payne · 02-23-2014, 10:53 PM

Rajah.com is claiming there will be a title change on RAW tomorrow night, you'd have to assume Bryan wins the strap.

They won't be able to sell Batista/Orton as the main event at WM30. If Vince didn't already know that, he does now after the crowds reactions tonight.

58kcfan89 · 02-23-2014, 11:06 PM

No pun intended, but Bryan finally winning the belt on a random Raw wouldn't be best for business IMO. Ideally, you'd have the face chasing the heel going into Mania. Obviously, we're past the point of ideal situations seeing as how they've booked themselves into a huge corner, but it's just a thought. I think more people would be likely to buy WM/Network if it was Bryan with a chance to win the belt there instead of just defending it.

That said, I'll take what I can get. It's sad that a guy who's so freaking over with EVERYONE has had to work so hard and still hasn't been given a real shot. I understand the concept of a slow burn & trying to draw out his popularity as long as you can, but they're really risking losing his heat if they keep this up. Randy vs. Dave might be the final straw for some people.

And whoever the idiot is who didn't want Summerslam going off the air with Bryan as the champ should be fired. Same with whomever thought that people would rush to buy Wrestlemania to see Dave Batista in the main event. Those were your chances to make Bryan a star. Give him the clean win over Cena at SS and let him keep the damn belt for more than 5 minutes (literally). Or let him win the Rumble and main event your biggest show of the year.

At some point, they're going to have to rely on someone other than Cena & part-timers to sell tickets, PPV buys & t-shirts, right?

I agree with you that it wouldn't make a lot of sense for a title change on a random RAW but I think they are building this up as the biggest RAW they've had in quite some time. Hogan is coming back, the Nature Boy will be there and there is also rumors that the Undertaker will be there as well. Also, sometime between now and WM30 the Ulimate Warrior will be making an appearance.

If Bryan doesn't win the belt before WM30 then he will more than likely win a match to get him into the main event with Boreton and Boretista.

**Reaper16** · 02-23-2014, 11:19 PM

Can't wait to see Undertaker ride in on a motorcycle tomorrow. *biggest eyeroll in world history*

**Reaper16** · 02-23-2014, 11:21 PM

I totally agree that a title change is unnecessary tomorrow. What needs to happen is jettisoning Batista off of the card somehow. Bryan going over at Mania needs to be the endgame, so I will tolerate him being inserted into the main event for a triple threat.

At the worst, Bryan going over on HHH will feel somewhat satisfying. Bryan v Kane however is a waste of time.

Sassy Squatch · 02-23-2014, 11:28 PM

I remember reading that if HHH and Bryan wrestle HHH is going over.
