Probably, he did a total face plant.

Kane and Taker were horrific. They should be embarrassed. Particularly since they didn't catch and protect Shawn, plus the rest of the match where they stank out the joint.

Let Taker retire, WWE...

I bet Shawn has a hella headache right about now.

Taker has to take responsibility here. He keeps dragging himself out there.

I hope we get some great HBK matches going forward. Styles v HBK needs to happen.

Since it's WWE we can guarantee we won't get the match we want. HBK will be married to Taker and HHH is my guess.

Did they air any Saudi propaganda videos on the show? I didn't see anything but the last match.

Nope

No they didn't.

They didn't say "Saudi Arabia" once. The show was in the land of Crown Jewel if you didn't know any better.

Credit goes to Shawn Michaels for giving it all even after being handicapped during the most of the match. How many women in 50s could put on a performance like this?

Read the results since I'm at work. Seems like the worst show WWE has put on in a long time...glad I didn't waste my time watching

That would have been the only way to go to make his involvement make sense

You can say that GRR was much better than this one because that had no controversy surrounding it whereas this show was already controversial that they had to do something to make it a forgettable one

omg they let him land on his head

This sounds like it was the worst WWE ppv in years

What annoys me about this is if it was anyone other than Taker involved every ex wrestler would lambaste whomever it was for not protecting "one of the boys". But since it's Taker, everyone is gonna be all "it ain't ballet"

You have to give credit to Shawn for still doing that spot. Many older wrestlers and part timers wouldnt even do it

Shawn also landed the spot right. Kane and taker didn’t do their part cuz they were too busy sucking wind and being geriatrics.

Shawn can deffo do a match against the likes of AJ or even The Miz

HBK, to the surprise of no one, still has it. His shaved head and stubble give him an even better, grizzled/worn look. If you're gonna bring back arguably the GOAT, try not to kill him his first match back with two out of shape old farts who haven't had it in years.

Imagine HBK ending his career on that moonsault. Seesh.

Alsolegit curious to see if they bring Hogan to raw and if he gets booed

Based on results, Saudi Arabia can keep this show and bury it in a well.

Oh fuck me pyro, i was waiting on Bray Wyatt running out screaming "what's that".

As for Hogan, massive pop. Could probably do a final match with how he's looking.

Smooth.

What pissed me off is Michaels was v good, and it's wasted in a seniors' circuit match with a bunch of hasbeens who are beyond limited in their ability. Luckily the crowd liked it, so I guess good on them for that.

Just got done watching. I really don't think the show itself was that bad. There were some questionable finishes. The Shane thing was stupid if there is no payoff in the end.... Shane vs. CM Punk at WM35 would solve that. The more Kurt works, the better he is getting for the standards of his age & injuries. The Brock thing was a bit weird as Braun really should be champion by now, but makes total sense if for only the Survivor Series rematch with AJ that they plugged immediately after he won.

I was completely shocked at the amount of work HBK did in this match. Makes me believe that his return is not just a one-off and figure that he'll have a couple more through to Wrestlemania. HHH looked like he got hurt cause Kane slammed him on the wrong table. The table Taker cleared was not used and HHH landed very hard on those monitors. Also, HBK's moonsault spot was terrific, but can't believe that Taker & Kane didn't protect him. I sure hope that one botch doesn't force Shawn to turn down any more matches.

I used to hate The Undertaker when he was good. Imagine my feelings now. Lol at Shane being “Best in the World”. I think I’m done.

Brock winning is the right call.

If HBK could return, I hope Sting can too and have his match against Taker and then retire them both for good

It's the right call of there's a long term plan to have him meaningfully drop the belt. If he's just going to show up in half cooked storylines again where he's running thru potential top guys in 5 minute matches its a fucking waste.

Can someone explain to me how Shane got into the tournament?

The Shane thing was atrocious but I guess they needed to do something which could make this PPV forgettable thats why they did it.

Whether or not Shane did anything was never going to forget how forgettable this show was. They produce multiple forgettable shows a year. Maybe could argue most of them are.

You could make the case that Shane is going to run around saying “he’s the best in the world”. Then after the Rumble you insert Omega

Bah gawd he knocked him bald!

They're the Brothers of Destruction not the Brothers of Protection.

Reading the results.

Did Hogan really say "so what ya gonna do when the power of Hulkamania and Crown Jewel run wild on you, brother? "

That's fucking awful.

Yeah pretty sure I saw that in yr YouTube highlight video I watched

Where did Taker get his hair from?

I just read the results...they put the belt back on Lesnar?
