>>14366724was it? I watched the first 18 minutes of it and it never kicked into third gear. Sometimes second gear but always falling back to first.
The first 6 minutes were spend with awkward looking mat wrestling. At one point Danielson crossed his arms and attempted a weird choke on Osprey, but it just looked like he was tickling his neck a bit. The very first time Osprey does anything of note was the fucking whacky ring rope bounce he loves to do, which was countered in an admittedly fun looking spot. Also whats with Ospreays selling? Daniel attempted a surfboard on Will, but Will just looked bored to the crowd, waggling his finger. Dude, sell that there is now pressure applied to your legs and you cant get out. Dont act smug about it. Or the very first time Will attempts a chop exchange. He had the upper hand, then literally invites Daniel to chop his chest, which takes him a few seconds to realize, he does a single job and suddenly Will had the most comedic sell to the chop I have ever seen. The fuck was happening there?
Also why the fuck did the crowd pay attention to the fucking commentators instead of the action of "best match in the history if humankind!"? They were chanting "love Don Callis" or "Fock don callis". The fuck was up with that? Also why does the commentary at one point talk about chinese high flyers and chinese proverbs?
I stopped watching at some point, because it just wasnt fun. What I saw was 2-3 stars. A pretty mid match getting carried by a (too) hot crowd (since it felt disconnected to what I thought of it all).
If you claim something is the best in the history of all time, it has to be perfect. If its not perfect, its not the best, and what I've seen isnt perfect.
