>>18272019>But Sting probably had the best retirement a "legend" has ever had right?Honestly asking, do you think this because the tribute to his roles over the years and bringing in his two sons to join OR.. is it because he won his final match?
Goldberg got to do his handful of moves and no-sell with a man not only prepared to try to make Goldberg look good in the ring but also calling the spots for what might have been 'berg's longest match of his career. That part I thought was just fine for taking a submission rather than a pin. Anyone can fall to a submission so it didn't destroy his "monster" persona like what done in the say Taker/Brock match to end the streak.
Cutting off the speech was rude, but WWE could have posted that in full on YT afterwards because NBC has that hard cut for time. Not being a PLE is silly. That sounds like wanting a bigger Payday when being on SNME offers the chance of a wider audience to see it for free from anywhere in the US rather than need Netflix or Peacock. There used to be prestige to SNME, but an article the other day pointed out Antenna TV viewership is down to just 20% of the country now. They only tune in for the Super Bowl.
>Think about most of them compared to what Stinger had. Even The Undertaker, who I thought had a decent send off, was still just a video file played in COVIDMANIA I liked Sting's, but Taker got a fair not-entirely-planned-but-still-fitting send off with the cinematic send off. He's built for a ring match and listening to him talk about taping I'm shocked it turned out as well as it did. It's fucking memorable if nothing else seeing the Deadman kinda function like his early years again. Could have been shot better, but that's nitpicking
