legendkiller13 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I'm confident Del Rio will win at Mania, so they're building up Edge with the stronger momentum to make a Del Rio win look more impressive. And he'll probably retain against Christian down the track. I'd like to see Edge and Christian unite to take the tag titles off the Corre and give the tag division a boost. Most enjoyable Smackdown in a while, IMO. Highlights: Cody Rhodes/Mysterio angle, the unexpected Intercontinental Title match (and unexpected result), Christian/Del Rio match (2 of my fav wrestlers right now). I see it going a different way, with Christian costing Edge the title at Mania, finally setting up the long awaited feud between the "brothers". And allowing Del Rio to move on to a new feud.

And allowing Del Rio to move on to a new feud. They aren't brothers anymore. Now they're just best friends. Remember, we're wrestling fans, we have the memory of a gold fish. Edge has never done that submission move before and Hawkins and Ryder weren't the Major Brothers a few weeks prior. Oh, and the big one is Triple H isn't one of Undertaker's Wrestlemania victims.

Of course Wrestlemania X-Seven never happened! I wasn't sure if WWE still acknowledged Edge and Christian as brothers, or if they were just considered friends now a days.

Zeel1 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I read somewhere (Maybe in this topic actually) that Vince made it so that the Majors weren't portrayed as brothers, after learning that they weren't actually related... so perhaps he's developed some sort of disdain for kayfabe brothers? I guess Kane and 'Taker still get a pass due to only being half-"brothers", but... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think back on all of their storylines, there's no difference. Kane and Undertaker on the other hand, if they arent related their entire backstory makes no sense.

milamber Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Looks like they're letting Sin Cara use most of his famous moves. According to Wikipedia his moves are: Finishing moves La Mística (Tilt–a–whirl headscissors takedown transitioned into a single arm DDT floated over into a Fujiwara armbar) Signature moves Arm drag, sometimes from the second or top rope or preceded by a tilt–a–whirl headscissors takedown El Péndulo (Tiger feint kick) Hurricanrana, sometimes from the top rope or preceded by a slingshot Leg trap sunset flip powerbomb Slingshot corkscrew crossbody Springboard moonsault Superkick I'm sure the Top Rope C4 is a new move. I hope they're letting him use his CMLL entrance theme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C4 was the first move name that came to mind without saying Moonsault Side-Slam/Uranage. Sorry Kaz. I will remember Flux Capacitor next time...I swear.

steesh07 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I see Mistico being a replacement for Rey, he is getting on a bit. Hopefully though we get to see a Del Rio vs Rey vs Cara match *crosses fingers* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OctoberRaven Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Not "an armbar", a flying headscissors into an armbar. It looks great. Didn't know he also did the Shiranui Kai, I'd be amazed if they let him do that on WWE television as that's an insanely dangerous move (the guy who invented it nearly killed himself AND his opponent twice trying to do it but slipping off the top rope and to the floor) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OctoberRaven Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Yep. He used it both in the end of KENTA's 7-match trial and their GHC title match; both times they spilled to the floor in a nasty way then got back up to try it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
