I'm not convinced this match is live though.....

That's a good point

Ok he looked like he took the table bump bad.

He didnt seem concussed but it doesnt mean hes not. The first stoppage makes me think he really is.

But then they continue and go straight to the finish. Again makes me think they wrapped it up quickly.

But why have a concussed man climb a height .... its irresponsible

That was frightening. No way that's a work. Pity their feud was marred with botches/legit injuries/TNT ads. Christ I thought things were gonna go seriously wrong at the end there.

Reminded me of Matt v Edge after Matt was hard way busted open.

Very odd letting them finish if he was concussed.

Matt Hardy is an idiot.

Even if it was a work it just seemed sudden end

One dizzy spell from Hardy or a blavk out and it would have been grim

You would think at near 46 years old and given the career he has had, and more importantly the money he has earned, that he wouldn't be wrestling anymore.

Furious-Red

The way he couldn't even walk after the spot makes me think it was a real concussion. There is no way that was the plan for the match to just fight to the the stage and send Sammy through the table to finish.

Thunder or Hikaru. Who would you rather?

Thunder for me

I think it was a pretape, matt got legit rocked, was checked out, given the OK, and they taped the finish...... There's definitely a middle section missing.

I assumed at first it was selling and the way they stopped it with Sammy being restrained I felt it might be a work stoppage. But the way it was wrapped up suggest its a legit head injury.

He should not be climbing a ladder with a head injury at his age and career.

That makes more sense.

Cherry_Cola

Interesting to see if it is but the tone of the commentators indicated it was legit I think. They were borderline calling it irresponsible.

Yea he looked a lot more with it for the finish actually but was still dangerous

beakerjoe

I am glad it ended early. Not a fan if backstage brawls and we already had one with Baker and BS.

Was hoping for more House Hardy nonsence. Ah well.

Hopefully the Jericho v OC match is more comedy than brawl. Jerichos defo losing it

Cherry_Cola

Crowd is horrendous volume wise. I was tempted to head for this and all!

beakerjoe

If the Hardy match was taped and he was legit concussed at the start, they should just leave it and not show it.

It was so bizarre, Hardy looked ****ed on a second view. I hope hes ok, looked like he could have broken his skull

Agent Coulson

Loved that match.

The women put on a great showing.

Furious-Red

This women's match isn't too bad, i really enjoy shida but it's a pity she has very little charisma. Also thunder Rosa is fairly decent too

beakerjoe

Kip Sabian is very Tom Cruise in Jerry Maguire.

Thats not a bad thing

sky88

Best match of the show so far

It was nothing on the JE vs The Bucks IMO.

Agent Coulson

So who has a best man gimmick that is a free agent.

Fairly close between them but rest of the show hasn’t been great

Loved the dig at wwe

It will probably someone on the roster.

beakerjoe

This 8 man screams 'get everyone on the card'

Agree that only the womens match and the Bucks match are the only bright spots of the show.
