I say this as a huge Ambrose fan that REALLY was hoping he would win last night... There seems to be a misconception that once the crowd gets behind you, that you can never lose again. That you should automatically be untouchable from day one. I mean even Stone Cold lost well after his KOTR speech. Took him a year and a half till he became WWE champion. As I said last night, if WWE didn't still believe in Ambrose he would have lost clean in the center of the ring. Instead it took 5 guys to stop him. And 5 on 1 odds makes any one man look legit. Even in a losing effort. Ambrose is the guy that may not win every fight, but he's not gonna stop no matter how many times he gets beat down. No matter the odds. He's not scared of losing. And for me personally, it's refreshing. After years of the WWE formula of Superman kissing babies, saying their prayers, and constantly reigning supreme it's great to see a realistic character. A Piper to their Hogan, a Punk to their Cena, and perhaps a Ambrose to their Reigns. If Ambrose started to win a bunch, people would complain that he was getting the "Superman" push and that he was being shoved down our throats. Anyway, spent my morning shopping around for a new laptop and now I have to start work so I won't be able to post my Hell in a Cell review on my blog until late today. Sorry to the few who read my blog.

I thought the show was pretty great. Ziggler and Cesaro really came out swinging. Great match between two guys who deserve all the praise in the world imo when it comes to what happens between those ropes. I absolutely loved that they played off the fact they had faced each other so many times. They setup the same moves we saw on Raw and Smackdown but went with totally different spots, reversals, or counters and it was super entertaining. I could watch that go more matches but Ziggler seemed to win pretty definitively, which was a great surprise. The opening match was so good it pretty much carried me through the first full hour of the PPV. The tag match had its moments and spots, and I thought the finish was great with Cody using the kick. Just clever heel tactics and I can appreciate that. The Bella match went about as expected. Nikki looked pretty sensational and it setup the smoothie moment later in the night. So I can live with that for 30 days. Orton vs Cena was Orton vs Cena. The two RKOs were awesome imo, and we saw them kind of get better towards the end with the false finishes but Cena was taking half-bumps into the cell, immediately smiled after he won, and hugged every make-a-wish kid around ringside or gave them a piece of his clothing. "Ger-mans <3 Cena!" The false finishes were heavy and it wasn't the outcome I wanted and I just hate the whole thing, BUT at least they didn't go on last. Sandow is hysterical. I was laughing virtually the entire match. I was hoping Miz could win so we could see Sandow take the title from him. Maybe we'll see Sandow beat Sheamus for the title directly. Rusev vs Big Show was pretty horrible imo. Just a boat load of I don't give a , minus dos legs. The Rusev thing is painful in general but throw in Big Show and babyface Mark Henry and wow does it really suck. AJ vs Paige didn't really get much of my attention. I was in pre-main event mode. So I got something to drink, went to the bathroom, and caught AJ applying the black widow. I like AJ so cool. The main event was pretty much everything I hoped it would be. On top of the cage was perfect and then the double HBK spot gave it that impact Cell moment. The finish... well that sh*t was weird. I have zero problem with Wyatt getting involved and costing Ambrose the match, I quite loved that element of it, but that hologram and the glossolalia was straight strange. So I think they need to clear up what the hell is going on with the Wyatt family so I know how to react to that kind of thing. I feel like the Wyatt is character from Shadow Man right now. Overall though, I was entertained for pretty much the whole night. The two matches I was paying $9.99 to see turned out phenomenal so no complaints.

I'm just really confused as to what they were doing with Wyatt at the end. With the cryptic voices I genuinely got excited that it was going to be the appearance of someone new, possibly The Ascension. I have no idea what that hologram even stood for and I'm 100% sure it wont be answered. When it turned out to just be Wyatt I was a disappointed, even if the shot of him on all fours did look pretty twisted. The trouble is, I don't know how to react as I don't know what the situation is with The Wyatts, especially with the Promos about setting them free etc. If they are looking to rebuild Wyatt away from the Wyatt Family, then surely they should of repackaged his appearance with that Return.

The hologram was Sister Abigail. She probably told him to do it or somethin. I love Wyatts character, but te writing needs work

Awesome ending! Great main event, actually. The other cell match was good but not great (shoulder tackle into RKO was awesome though), and the Bellas match was decent. Mizdow stole the show. I can't wait to see what Wyatt's possible reason for attacking ambrose will be I'm guessing it will be long-winded, entertaining, and not really make any sense.

Ambrose has lost cleanly to Orton on multiple occasions. Lol. No. Not sure why your saying no when he has lost atleast twice to Orton by a clean pinfall...

One clean pinfall does not count as "several." It was a street fight. Anything goes and Orton pinned him cleanly. That's twice Orton has beaten dean clean. I could be wrong but I believe Kane beat him clean on sd earlier this year as well. And besides adr name another top name dean has beaten cleanly...

I wouldn't say either of you are wrong, cause to be fair, Ambrose had the "dislocated shoulder" in the match after MITB. And the other was a handicap match. So even though Orton didn't cheat, he did have the advantage in both matches.

Even so, he's lost clean four times since January. One of which is a handicap match then. Three times in singles competition. How is that bad?

Kane did pin Ambrose on SD a few months back. But even that was due to interference from Rollins. Just saying.

I dunno about anyone else, but I sure as hell was not ready and wanting the Ambrose/Rollins feud to come to an end. I like the idea of Bray messing it up, because it will give both those guys something else for a short time without burning out their own feud, then it could pick back up at ANY point and be fun. Bottom line....Ambrose vs Rollins main evented a PPV, and they ing DELIVERED the goods. It was a fun match, they beat the hell out of each other, and the way it ended means their feud is NOT over. It's a win-win. However I still maintain I have zero faith in the WWE to actually continue the Ambrose train when Reigns is all healed up. And Rollins is most likely destined for the typical heel treatment sooner than later, he'll start losing ALL the time. Overall it was a good show. Cena/Orton was fine...obviously Cena's gonna win because they cant do anything else. Tag match was great fun Cesaro is incredible, seriously. It sickens me how under-used he is. He suplexed Dolph while hanging on the middle rope, you gotta be kidding. Although Ziggler getting the W that was was good for him. So far Ziggler's had more successful title defenses this year than Brock. Rusev/Show was whatever. Rusev just sucks. But that suplex was damn amazing. Mizdow continues to be one of the best things going. While the "YMCA" thing was just about the most cornball thing I've ever seen, and the crowd could not have given any less s....Mizdow still ing rulez Bottom line, the WWE made me interested/excited for RAW tonight and we got some good wrestling & a hell of a main event with a shocker. I'm satisfied.

The chanting going on with the darkness went on far too long for my liking.
I still enjoyed the match and it was exactly what it was supposed to be till the ending. It was on its way to a MOYTC until the Bray run in.

I was really pleased Ambrose and Rollins main events. Thoroughly deserved. I also love that the close involved another rising star.
However, I thought the match was too slow paced, the crowd felt lacklustre, and the ending just didn't feel right for me. It was great, but I feel like it could have been done a little smoother.
I was hoping for a more exciting match I think. That being said, I love both guys and hope they carry on near the top.

I actually felt a little bad for AJ and Paige, and I'm not notably a fan of either, but they had a very solid match and the crowd didn't I've two craps. The seemed to get the lowest crowd response.

I've watched Ambrose/Rollins about ten times now, and it's still incredible every single time. Definitely MOTY for me. Goddamn, the future for the two of them.

SO the wwe really compared Orton/Cena. To Hogan vs piper, Rock vs Austin, Bret vs Shawn, Manning vs Brady and Muhammad Ali vs. Joe Frazier. HAHAHAHA! GET OUT OF HERE WITH THAT CRAP!

I only watched Ambrose/Rollins, and I couldn't care less about the rest of the pay-per-view. They're actually doing something with Wyatt again, his feud with Ambrose is going to be amazing. Plus, the feud of the year continues to live on. The match was pretty ing awesome too.
