Triple H on the Damian Priest botch 

I know wrestling is planned but damn. It’s like a boxer knocking out his opponent and naming the knocked out guy the winner.

Ref's job is to pretend it is real. Seth should have been awarded the pinfall, and then they can improvise to get to the expected final result with Punk and Drew, and then have Priest win the title back sooner rather than later if they really want him to be the champ.

It's clear that Priest was out cold for a second. Can't call that a botch

I would have pulled a “ref had Dwayne in his ear” work. That adds a little flair to the final boss still being out there.

Bro what? That was an epic failure. The title should have changed hands and you guys just have to wing it from there. Have Drew still cash in and then have it be a triple threat with Priest and he somehow gets the title back and everything is still as is.

Shit was one of the most embarrassing moments in Priest’s career and the refs as well(I understand it was not his fault)because that was terrible, Priest figured his music would hit prior to the pin I’m guessing but wow, fyi imo still was some of the best writing as far as screwing over DM over and over and over again lol Everyone knows it was coming and I still laughed out loud legitimately which is why I didn’t use lol haha

One of the few good things about wrestling now is when things can become real. They should have improvised and went with what was real at the time. Instead, they remind people to question why they even watch this anymore. HHH isn't running the show like a GM should. He is still thinking like a wrestler, and it's why the product will still remain lacking.

It was bullshit, one of the biggest botches ever

Triple H might be better at running the business than Vince McMahon 🤔

Just to give cm punk this big storyline they made the money in the bank contract a non factor till another year. They could have had cm punk screwing him out the money in the bank win and had someone like LA Knight or Jey Uso win it. They trying to build this big bloodline story with Cody Rhodes as the target but to truly make it work they need Cody Rhodes without half the main event roster in his corner and have an unlikely saviour, thats how you create a bloodline civil war. At the moment their heel vs face storylines are like AEW with so many groups you know whats going to happen. Vince needs to teach these corporate fools how to write storylines.

The referee counted to three and everyone present could clearly see it. The referee just needed to give this information to the ring announcer and management. Next, Plan B would be used in case of unforeseen circumstances and bookers would work on the fly. Damien lost, there was no doubt about that. The referee shouldn't have blindly followed the first scenario because there is always an alternative plan for such events. Some blame should be placed on Damien, but the referee's actions were far more egregious and unprofessional. As a last resort, in similar situations in the history of wrestling, the restart of the match was announced.

I'm pretty sure Drews music should have hit sooner. Still Priest could have understood but I'm almost positive it was the delayed music which was probably supposed to interrupt the count

It could have been fixed by having a Cm punk segment talk to the ref before the match and the having the footage show up after the botch.

Just put the title on Gunther already.

Need to make it right. Seth needs another title shot

Refs should be encouraged to call it like the audience sees it, looks incompetent now. Take the L, he was knocked out, work it out in the back and resolve it on TV

Bruh that’s not a mistake he didn’t kick out so he shouldn’t be champ what doesn’t triple H understand about that

He is just covering up the mistake of Damien Priest. HHH is a Damien fan.

Strip off his title

One of the worst botches ever exposed the buissness to everyone you CANNOT be forgetting to kick out during a world title match in the main event damien should lose the title soon

They didnt play drews music in time not on the ref or wrestlers

Scolding people because they noticed an obvious botch? It DOES define the match. It doesn’t make either of them bad workers, but acting like fans are silly for talking about it is nonsense.

Who screwed up more, Damian or the ref?

Not priests fault. They didn't play drews music in time. I think it was supposed to be 1...2... Drew music plays they all stare at the entrance

Liv morgan worked the ref to have priest keep belt - just do that

Not a mistake he was kod mistakes dont happen why you're supposed to rehearse

Priest sucks. I don't know what you see in him, Paul. He lags everywhere. Corbin is better.

Bootleg taker😂 boring corbin

Why is he world champion to begin with?... fans don't seem to be into him much. He has the look of a pro wrestling champion for sure, but his mic is weak and needs to improve his in ring work.

He lost

All these blunders, when Vince was here…it never happened. Get Triple H out of there!!!

HHH is a great leader

God that match was awful lmao
