Hell in a Cell 2018 Twitter Poll Results: The #'s Don't Lie

To finish up coverage of this week's Hell in a Cell event, I'm including the results of a couple Twitter polls I posted on Twitter @cdub1898. Thank you to any and everyone who voted in these polls. If you want to vote in the next polls, check on Twitter to see the latest polls that are up. (For example, there will be at least one poll tonight for SmackDown Live.) Here are the results (along with my thoughts)


Best Match

I'm in complete agreement with the result here. Looking back, that tag team match was the highlight of the show in general. And I understand why Hardy vs. Orton ended up in 2nd Place. No one chose to give more detail on why they picked "Other (Write)" on the poll. As is, I think this is a very good representation of the best matches of the show.

**I decided not to do a Worst Match poll since I thought the pool might be poisoned thanks to the ending of the main event.**

Overall Grade

Obviously, the bad taste of the main event altered people's thoughts of the overall show. But consider this: 63% of voters determined that the show passed some sort of test. (A-C typically show mastery or above of whatever criteria.) But more people chose the bottom option than chose either of the other three. I think that's indicative of a PPV that failed to live up to its promised marquee of "Cell matches with a finish."

Again, thank you for checking this out. For further polls and other thoughts on wrestling, check out this blog and Twitter @cdub1898. Until next time, take care of yourselves. Spread some awesomeness.

WWE TLC 2018 Review- Tables and Ladders and Chairs, Oh My!  

        HERE WE GO!    Pre-Show   1) WWE Cruiserweight Championship   Buddy Murphy (champ) vs. Cedric Alexander   They started this match early. Apparently, they wanted just as many fans in the arena as there usually are in 205 Live matches for this to give it the authentic feel.   The bell rings. A lot of tie-ups and switches to start up the match to a good reaction from the crowd. A Loud 205 Chant. Alexander takes down Murphy to the floor. Really good back and forth action here with both men moving quickly. Alexander catches Murphy with a dropkick for a 2 count. BIG KNEE to the head of Alexander sends him to the floor. Murphy flies off the top rope and hits a Meteora (maybe that’s what they were going for?) for a 2 count. Murphy has the advantage for a few moments, including a power choke on the corner on Alexander. He jumps off it to eat a SUPERKICK to the chest. Crowd seems invested in the matc...

UnWrest Focus- Survivor Series: Team Cena vs. Team Authority (Survivor Series 2014)

A feud between those who abuse power and those who try to overcome their abuse. It's a classic storytelling trope that has been used time and time again throughout fiction and history. In 2014, that trope was brought back as The Authority looked to cement its power through their "Chosen One" Seth Rollins and his team. Meanwhile, John Cena and other disgruntled WWE employees sought to end the "Reign of Terror" of The Authority once and for all. Putting their jobs on the line, Team Cena hoped to get an opportunity to send Stephanie and Triple H away. However, fans didn't expect a traitor in the midst of Team Cena or the debut of the Franchise of WCW in a WWE ring. This is the latest edition of UnWrest Focus: Survivor Series, and it's going to be a memorable one at that. Let's do this! WWE Survivor Series 2014 11/23/14 Survivor Series Match Team Cena (John Cena, Big Show, Ryback, Erick Rowan, and Dolph Ziggler) vs. Team Authority (Seth Rollins, ...

UnWrest Focus: Survivor Series: Bret Hart vs. Shawn Michaels- "The Montreal Screwjob" (Survivor Series 1997)

Welcome to another edition of UnWrest Focus. For this edition, I'm going to be watching random classic moments from Survivor Series past. This can be traditional Survivor Series matches or classic moments from the Survivor Series event in general. And I'm starting this off with perhaps the most famous/infamous moment in the history of the event. It's 1997, and the WWF has its back against the wall. To make matters worse, Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels aren't exactly seeing eye to eye and have had an on-air/off-air heated rivalry that has left both men trying to undermine the other. Around this time, WWF Champion Bret Hart signed a deal to leave WWF to go to WCW... at the request and urging of Vince McMahon who could not afford to pay Bret's contract or match the offer WCW was offering. But here's the problem: Vince wanted Bret to drop the title to Shawn Michaels in Montreal at Survivor Series. After some major back and forth negotiating and drama, the decision ...
