Hunter should have jumped him right after the match so he never got the chance to hold the belt up. Don't just screw him out of the title, screw him and the fans out of their special moment.

Well.. their kayfabe way out of it is that Hunter was a biased ref, so he could screw the rules however he wanted to.

Personally, I'm quite happy Orton won and Triple H and him are heels, I've missed them as heels, and I'm honestly all in for an Evolution reunion at some point.
Also, I can't remember Cena losing the title soo cleanly, and with a KENTA knee....nice.
Re: Kiel's thoughts on Summerslam as it happens!
Thanks! Couldn't remember a specific time for the life of me. I'm just thinking of all the teased cash-ins that have been broken up while waiting for the champ to get to their feet so the bell could ring.Big Red Machine wrote:Right.cero2k wrote:they change this rule whenever they feel like it.

If rumors are to be believed, Hunter's heel turn is supposed to go along with a Vince face turn. A good start would be using that loop hole to strip Randy of the title...

I'm just trying to figure out where Vince goes from here. I mean, he got what he wanted. How does Vince get sympathy?Big Red Machine wrote:That would work.cero2k wrote:he can try, overruled by Steph's heel turnBig Red Machine wrote: NO! That would kill everything!

Re: Kiel's thoughts on Summerslam as it happens!
That's why I think Vince needs to be a heel, too. Maybe he could say that Dragon won him over, but I think it works best if Hunter and Steph both came out and said that Vince's way of thinking won them over.Bob-O wrote:I'm just trying to figure out where Vince goes from here.

Because when the pyro hit I legitimately thought that was it and we were safe. Randy's not coming. Dragon's champion. All is good.

Re: Kiel's thoughts on Summerslam as it happens!
it also made Dragon look stronger since it wasn't like the other cash ins where the champ is fallen, Dragon was ready to run the gauntlet again, you knew that if Orton got in, Dragon still had a legit chance to fight and even defend the title, which was necessary for Hunter's swervekiel297 wrote:
