But also, as always, why didn’t he pin him down with the forks?!

 

I love you Kevin Owens

 

Damn these spots are sick

 

KO is insane. I love him so much. Really sucks that he is going to lose this match and then have WWE creative squander any remaining heat he has from this performance by giving him nothing to do for the next four weeks

 

I was kind of hoping they were going there initially...would have been a nice empty arena call-back

 

Also, kudos to Roman, he’s been great in this too

 

Hahhahahahaha, YESSSSS, they did the spot!

 

He's taken the kind of beating they used to give to him as a babyface, but seeing it as a heel getting his comeuppance is lovely.

 

How has KO not been one of the top 3 biggest stars in the company since debuting on the main roster? His character works in every and any setting, heel or face. He’s the closest thing to an Austin or Punk like character they have right now and they’ve squandered him left and right

 

This match rules

 

God, what an awesome false finish

 

Hahaha that ref spot!

 

Lol Paul can’t get him loose

 

Lmao this match should be over. Ref was at a count of 8 and just stopped because they couldn’t unhook the handcuffs

 

lmao

 

Havent posted in this thread in sever years probably (I'm a ghost), but holy shit this Owens and Reigns match is awesome. Wish it had a live crowd!

 

Boy did they botch this handcuff spot

 

Ugh. Trash finish.

 

After all that, they’re going to have Roman win with a guillotine after he clearly should have lost the match after a botched handcuff spot. That’s a bummer given how great that match was

 

KO is so good at making you believe. I love this version of Roman too.

 

reigns shoulda knocked out the second ref at that point lol

 

Fun match, anti-climatic finish.

 

Heyman’s face right now is that of someone who knows Vince McMahon is about to chew his ass out

 

Handcuffs needed to be cleaner, obviously, but everything about that was perfect. Obviously KO wasnt winning, but I actually thought he was gonna do it. It was such a cool callback to the cage match and would have been basically the one way you could have had Roman lose

 

That match ruled. Best main roster match in years, probably
