He was trying to do the "smiling with acceptance as death comes for you" that they do in films but it doesnt work because in those films they're normally bleeding out or about to be blown up and die instantly, rather than actively having their throat crushed.

right? i watched back and right before he taps he "relaxes" and then has the slow acceptance to smile
but the dude is literally in an rnc, a hold that squeezes the life out of you. if you have the time to relax and smile then you don't need to tap. it made no sense.

If Gunther hit him with like 10 finishers and then John was on his knees and smiled before taking the final one, it'd make more sense if that's what they were going for. But a sleeper sub just doesn't work with it

i mean i get suspending belief but I genuinely thought the smile was just bad acting in real time because Cena doesn't often "go out"
Then I realise it's supposed to be an actual smile and it somehow makes it stupider.

Seen people calling the ending beautiful and a perfect ending, critcising others for not "getting" the story beat but I mean holy shit that is not the hold to do it
Smiling during any sub is stupid because you're supposed to be in active pain. An RNC is the worst of the worst because it targets your breathing, so wtf are you doing smiling

When you break kayfab every week, you can’t get heat on wrestler during a match. Everyone knows the shit is predetermined, so they just hate you instead. You can really only get good heat these days outside the ring, but WWE only cares about matches now. So Paul’s fucked.

Yeah it is obvious. The bad guy won so people are upset. That's not a fumble, that's as basic as wrestling gets.

wwe ruined gunther so they had him tap out cena

>>19478272
>Am I crazy
Yes. It was supposed to be some moment of relief thing, where he finally realizes he's stuck and has nowhere to go. The way he did it was less cinematic than what he saw in his mind beforehand I'm sure.
>>
>>19478272
he wanted Vince to book his retirement and Triple Gay said no, this was his revenge

>>19480965
>people don't like it when you take a massive shit on their heroes.
Cena went out losing, which is the main thing. Now, we could argue that he didn't go out on his back looking up at the lights 1-2-3 so that's maybe a little unconventional, but it was hardly a Janel Express.
>>
>>19480994
It's pointless anyway because he will never be the top guy they trust to hold the main belt. He's already hit his ceiling so this did nothing.
>>
My issues were with the shit selling, the fake as fuck sleeper (weird fumble?) And the "whatever I'm done" no sell tap out. Seen Gunter winning it a mile away but the delivery, much like this entire tour, has been pretty awful.

Alot of it stems from John's in ring performance overall since he returned.

I would bet money that the finish was Cena's idea.

heat is supposed to be on the heel, not the booker. that's 20,000 fans who won't be coming back, I guarantee. those people paid huge amounts of money to attend that show and HHH threw dog shit in all their faces. I don't even like Cena, I just can't believe they would piss all over their fans like that. They have fans who are willing to pay thousands to attend shows and this is how they get treated?

Welcome to the era of Stockholm syndrome. They got carnied out of thousands of dollars for those tickets with this shit, yet I doubt those fans stay away.

I'm inclined to think Cena went out on his own terms with this finish.
HHH isn't a genius but he's not retarded either. And Cena has a history of doing business for himself and having it blow up in his face. I'd bet the finish WAS supposed to be a knock out but the dumbass was caught in the moment thought he could pull off a >>19478906 then failed miserably at acting it.

He ruined his own retirement

>>19481675
I do not believe that he came up with it in the moment, but I do believe it was entirely his idea, and that's why Triple H was so annoyed that people were booing him.

The entire sequence had Gunther swapping between tight and loose. Cena wanted to turn and that's how you can tell it was Cena's finish.

And yet they're making more money (adjusted for inflation) than ever because the name of the game in the 2020s is maximizing dollars per fan. If pro wrestling were capable of growing at this point, then AEW would have grown the audience. But they didn't.

All roads lead to Rome no matter how much you want to deflect and troll and be a bitch about it. Either you argue wrestling is growing, in which case WWE is doing the best while other companies are improving, or you argue wrestling is declining, in which case WWE is doing the best while everyone else suffers. There is no scenario in which a non-WWE company benefits by WWE substantially declines. That ship has sailed.

You make this mewling, faggoty little shithead post while completely ignoring that Tony Khan could easily put every single PPV on MAX instead, free of charge. No more $50 PPVs, only however much AEW fans pay for MAX, ad-supported or ad-free. But he doesn't do that because he'd rather grab you by the throat, yell out
>GIMME YOUR FUCKING MONEY
and throw you against the wall

Won't stop you from being a little cocksucker and pretending WWE is the only wrestling company in the world that wants money though

>>19488374
He won't do it because AEW is in far more serious financial trouble than they're letting on. AEW PPVs only make the company about $30M/year after platforms take their cut. If the TV deal launched AEW firmly into profitability, then why not put the PPVs on MAX for free and take the hit? Or why not cut the price from $50 down to $30, or $20 like outside the US? It's pocket change to Big Tonedog, right?

>>19488388
See above, fag boy. AEW is in deep shit and so far away from profitability that Tony Khan wouldn't even imagine converting 2-3 yearly PPVs into free MAX specials, and lowering the price for existing PPVs.
