WWE Tables, Ladders and Chairs Recap
Most of the stuff that we said about the Hell in a Cell PPV from a few months back still applies here. If you were looking for a death-defying display of dangerous athleticism, then you might want to head back a decade and check out the TLC matches of yore. This was a safe and sleepy PPV that wasn’t without a few surprises. A few of the winners might shock you a bit, but that’s only because we tend to all fall into a state of wonderment whenever something different happens in the WWE. Let’s check in on the ultra scientific, only slightly fallible,
The chart picked Christian to beat Benjamin and…CHRISTIAN WON! Ding!
·The chart picked Orton to beat Kofi and…ORTON WON! Ding!
·The chart said that McIntyre would beat Morrison and MCINTYRE WON! Ding!
·The chart said that DX would beat JeriShow and…DX WON! Ding!
· The chart said that Cena would beat Sheamus and…SHEAMUS WON! Buzz!
·The chart said that the Undertaker would beat Batista and…THE UNDERTAKER WON! Check!
There you go again, chart. Being 83.33% accurate again ?º The way the WWE works now, the framework of their typical match simply does not allow for greatness. Christian got legitimately busted open in the first few minutes of the match and the WWE literally crushed the momentum AND the believability of this match by having a guy come down to clean up the blood. To glue Christian up. During this time, at least two minutes, Shelton did NOT climb up a ladder and get the belt. He just stood by and watched the doctor. The audience was booing. They chanted "we want blood." There were some nice spots later on (some blown ones too) but at this point, the match was totally soured. Essentially there was an unofficial rotten "time out" called because of the WWE’s PG rating and it totally f***ed the whole thing up. I’m not saying that this match was all-together terrible, but it definitely was not allowed to succeed. This was not a contest that demonstrated the greatness of these two competitors. There were just too many moments when the guys could have actually grabbed the title and won, but they made their spots too obvious.Worst match of the night. You read that right, worst match of the night. Like many of you I have been reading other journalists’ thoughts about his match, and have been seeing positive reviews roll in so far… I have no idea what they were watching, but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t the same thing I saw.
