    Corbin vs Rollins and Kingston vs Ziggler at Stomping Grounds?


    These matches already happened. They have probably the biggest roster of any wrestling company ever and they just keep putting on the same matches.

    Yeah, wouldn't go down well.


    KSA is funny with some gimmicks like I remember at GRR Mike Kannelis got one of the biggest reactions because they found the idea of a man taking the woman's name hilarious.

    Two auld lads looking very, very auld.

    And a botched finish. That was a sad mess, to be honest.

    That was depressing.

    Undertaker looks like he's just taking stock of the fact that he's gotten too old for this.

    Very sad, neither can do their finishers anymore. Both being paid a fortune for tonight no doubt so they won't care.

    EDIT: Taker looked angry actually lmao

    Just grabbed the end of the show, the botch jackhammer, the botched tombstone spot, then a botched chokeslam...

    If Saudis are paying to have these oldtimers come over, you are not creating stars right anymore.

    I've never seen a Jack.....erm brainbuster look that dangerous.
    A terrible match that is quite frankly embarrassing to watch in the last week we've had.

    Creating stars?

    Taker has been ****e for at least the past decade and a half and Goldbergs career ended when WCW did

    Their new stars are the indie guys they hired to bury and the Rocks cousin that got over for approximately two shows when people thought he might actually die.

    The Tombstone was bad too, Goldberg landed on his head. Both of these should have retired long ago

    Match was grim but still prefer it to anything on AEW's abortion of a show.

    He spiked Aiden English a bit too this time last year. Imagine if Aiden did that

    8 more years of this Saudi rubbish to go. WWE sold out big time. Mansoor winning the battle royal was the icing on the cake.

    Shingo vs Ospreay and Taker vs Goldberg, contenders for best and worst matches of the year within the space of a few days.

    The nerve of that pot-smoking, Von Erich wannabe talking trash about a genuine star of the business - something Riddle will never be.

    8 more years of random Triple H matches and wheeling out the legends

    These events are comedy gold but fun too watch (so bad there good).

    I wonder will the UK or even here get something like this but at a smaller scale.?. The Aussies got it for no reason last year

    The tombstone spot was scary. Hope it was a big payday so they both walk away. The older guys need to know their limits or there's going to be an injury as happened with Sting. WWE also need to put their foot down like they did over Lawler wrestling.

    Taker should have retired at Mania when he left the hat in the ring. Goldberg doesn't need to wrestle any more either; the Lesnar match was the ideal farewell.

    Taker should have retired after the Reigns match, it was a perfect send off for him, and ruined it by coming back, hopefully that tonight makes him realise that its time to give it up

    Wow, what a night. Just about got my voice back. They promised an event the calibur of Mania, and we got it.

    Sting vs Taker ha

    Cena would be in that 'legends' bracket now. Christ imagine if the host of the last event Hogan came out of retirement ****. Kane, HBK (for another big pay out).

    at the next event it will be Triple H vs one of his NXT guys or AJ Styles

    Charlotte and Lacey will be thanking the old men for quickly taking that award from them.

    I'm sure I wasn't the only one watching that Battle Royal and reacting with "Oh yeah, I forgot about him" Sin Cara and AoP as examples. Then they have AoP, Heavy Machinery and Viking Raiders all fighting each other, which will probably be quickly forgotten so we can continue to have Usos/Revival.

    And where was Truth? He flew over there for nothing?

    While the other matches were good, this show will be remembered for that disaster of a final match. Jack Hammer suplex? The first tombstone had Goldberg wrapping his legs around Taker's head. Maybe he was just stopping himself from falling
