Yes, but the thing with Orton was this "youngest world champion" so he had time on his side , Priest is like over 40 and Randy with Batista where under HHH's umbrella in Evolution gimmick set up as top guys in years to come. If Priest would start in WWE system few years earlier and where put in this or The Shield type of project then today might been a different story. By the way Priest had like Kane type of gimmick in ROH and was enhancement talent on TV for most of his carrer so i would say what he's doing now is still improvement. It's like Mahal thing, you need to be put on the spot before you get the spot.

@BrndnNZT48 Ай бұрын

Kane is a perfect comparison. Kane, having the title always made sense, but getting it off of him without hurting him would be an issue. I get what they wanted to do for priest here, but when he loses, they have to make it not hurt his character.

@Shrasha 23 күн бұрын

I wouldn’t say that it was Priest’s fault by the looks of the match. I’d say that the sound guy was going to play Drew’s theme and have the music stop the count, and have Drew walk/run down to cash in. But, if it’s Damien’s fault, these things can and have happened. There’s always a whiff somewhere down the line, and it’s unfortunate that the whiff happened during a main event title run that is held by a secondary title player right now.

@@chuckles9767 He shook his hand after they won the belts and handed him his belt personally. That's a huge deal for the lone wolf we had seen up to that point. Then, when Dude Love turns heel and Mr. McMahon brings dancing strippers to cheer him up, Austin laughs at both of them. This is because he broke character and laughed IRL, but I think it also adds a new dimension to the already existing character. And yes, he was annoyed by Mankind, but he also puts him over as a tough sob on commentary even when he was a heel. Then, he also famously screwed Rocky and Vince by making Mankind win the championship. Foley is one of the few wrestlers who actually kinda befriended the antisocial Stone Cold.

True, it can work both ways. Some instances, like Bret Hart's first title win in 1992 propelled Hart into the main event picture, so the title made Bret. Whereas someone like HHH or the Undertaker makes the title important.

The botch made both Seth and Damien look like chumps, and revoking the stipulation of DP about "Seth never challenging for the title" night on RAW made zero sense after the botch pinfall, Seth instead of getting furious with Referer diverting his focus on Punk made it more anti-climactic. DP not appearing on the ring was a wise choice because fans would have chanted "You got Pin". Fans are going to remember the botch for a long time, the only to correct this was to create an angle out of this botch which WWE didn't do, now they will have to make Gunther win strap, and make Balor turn on him in SS. That way the fans attention from the botch can be diverted.

@SamoIsKing Ай бұрын

I've heard conflicting things. I've heard the sound guy missed his cue and was late in Drews entrance distracting Seth, I've also heard Priest had his bell rung during the suplex spots and forgot/didnt know he had to kick out. Its a shame because whatever happened was just an accident and it took the shine off of what was an incredible story.

@DaggerPrince Ай бұрын

yea im pretty sure it had to be the sound guy not playing Drews music. because thatd do too much for the storylines to not be the case - Seths count would get interrupted by Drew, so hes mad at him And mad at Punk for later intervining, setting up the Three Way where Seth would be angry at Both, not just at Punk. and with Damian the Judgement Day could be angry at him saying "You wouldve lost if Drews music didnt hit, youre a weak leader" and you could set up a feud there too. So way too many things make sense if the Music hits during the pinfall, that imo its impossible for this to not be the outcome they wanted.

@davidritchie9344 Ай бұрын

Go watch the suplex when Priest hits the mat in slow mo. It looks like his head bounced off the mat, maybe driven or trapped under Seth's leg. Not blaming Seth by any means, shit happens. I think he got KO and was seeing stars.

I took it as if Drew’s music was supposed to interrupt the pin but if Damian was supposed to kick out and didn’t then that’s unfortunate.

Priest has always seemed nervous since he got the belt

@ryan4372 Ай бұрын

His aura is an issue and an example is that botch with the pin... He should of kicked out (if not story related). He instinct was to follow the script rather than kick out. He moves his hands in disappointment… First the rope issue in Scotland, then the delay for Drew to come in.. he needs to take the ball as he will never have another reign after this. The importance of his reign from the higher ups were shown the following night. All they had to have had happened is Finn paying off the ref, or Damien talking to the ref and making it look planned. Maybe Finn didn’t have faith in him winning, so paid off the ref?. Either way they needed to put a stamp on that spot because it wasn’t ya average count mistake… Damien then reacts with frustration! Lol.. But yeah, he feels very scripted as a champion. I just can’t explain but he gives off the energy, this lack of confidence in himself/aura/freedom in his character, especially on the mic…

I'm wondering what Jim has to say about that obvious awkward botch in the middle of the match. Between that and the obvious awkward botch at King of the Ring, it has me wondering if Damien isn't ready and is cracking under the pressure of being world champion.

if priest was on his own and still doing the archer of infamy stuff he would look like a champion. the judgement day was D.O.A for him. and if you know the match isnt over then you have to kick out even if the music hit at the right time.

@ButWhatIfItIs Ай бұрын

Absolutely! And, if the Bucks etc did this BECAUSE they are smaller men and it made sense I would be fine with it. You and I are in a fight. I am smaller than you (legit I probably am, I'm a 5'9 garden rake, and not a very masculine or tough looking/sounding one either) then I might have problems trading punches. So my options are fight dirty or... in the context of wrestling, resort to extremes to take the fight to you, rather than ahving an unrealistic sequence where I am out wrestling and fighting like a heavyweight with you bumping around for me. The dives should be a necessity that came about logically, NOT just setting up a contrived spot so obviously for me to show I can do flips.

@NodakSavage 29 күн бұрын

This match was so weird to watch. Completely lack of any kind of psychology. Like Jim said “the zero to hero” shit happened way too much. Idk if they just ain’t teaching the levels of selling anymore or what. And don’t even get me started on whatever the fuck happen with the blown count/cash in. Jesus Christ. Ref counts to three, signaled two to the bell man, house lights come on and it’s like wtf is going on hahaha

@CamSTL Ай бұрын

The sound guy or whoever messed up. Drew's theme was supposed to interrupt the count. That's y priest didn't kickout and the ref stopped his count. That obviously didn't happen tho

@justinsayswtf Ай бұрын

At the same time, the plan was for the referee to stop mid-count because music starts playing? That’s not a great idea either. I could see Seth himself getting up when he hears music because he’s thinking he’s about to get attacked or whatever maybe.

@CamSTL Ай бұрын

@justinsayswtf Yes that's what I'm saying. We've literally seen this time after time on WWE where someone's theme stops the count and the camera pans to whoever is coming down the aisle. Didn't say it was a good idea tho

I disagree with their take on Priest not being a world champion yet. Besides, he doesn't have to be like the champions before him, nor to distance himself from his crew(who helped get him there to begin with), to be a legitimate champion🤷🏿‍♂️. However, for some reason he didn't kick out, which put a damper on the match. However, I agree with Jim regarding the killing of the superplex that Seth keeps doing, it irks me every time I see the spot😑👎🏿

Gunther elevated the IC title to the point where it was deemed to be more important than the WHC. That's why ppl are waiting for Gunther to become champion. If there is any hope for that title's prestige going forward, Gunther is most likely the guy who can make it become reality.
