Top three matches confirmed, wonder if they're still doing the thing where every match has a stipulation. Wouldn't make sense to drop out of that now, I guess.

There are the stipulations for the main event

That is the fucking dumbest stipulation ever.

That is the fucking dumbest stipulation ever. Makes perfect sense, tbh. If Orton can't use the RKO he's screwed, right? If Rollins can't have his cronies run in he's screwed, right? Granted Rollins was in that one cage match where the stooges ran in and so did Brock. Oh, Reigns vs. Show Last Man Standing added. Have no idea how this is supposed to work. Lesnar couldn't keep Reigns down so we're supposed to believe the fucking Big Show can?

and I'm pretty sure they're not even trying with that stipulation for Sheamus/Ziggler.

Big Show can knock him out with the worst finisher since the Heart Punch was a thing!

I don't hate that knockout punch in theory. He's the world's largest athlete and he's punching you in the face.
The problem is that it's 2015 and Big Show hasn't beat anyone of any significance with that in a match that actually mattered in like two and a half years.

I don't hate it in theory but it's kind of absurd that he doesn't break it out in about a million situations during the match and it's a double standard as closed fists are illegal. I just listened to a podcast that pointed out the flaws of the move.
Plus, he does a nice choke slam.

Yeah but the chokeslam doesn't beat anyone anymore.

No. He did one to Ryback on the NXT show and I was surprised by how great it looked. I had forgotten how great a move it was when it was still credible.
That Reigns/Show match kind of shows how tone deaf the company is and how thin the roster is. When's the last time someone got over by working with Big Show?

1997?
That match is my most anticipated on the show for no other reason than the Chicago crowd is going to tear that thing apart.

WHen was the one where he fought Mark Henry and the ring fell apart? That got Henry a ME push, if I remember correctly.... not that he necessarily needed help if that was what WWE was doing, of course.
I think they should embrace the fact that he turns at will and make him have Multiple Personality Disorder.. that would be awesome.

Someone did the counting and Big Show has turned 36 times in his career.

So have they dropped the thing where every match has a gimmick? The card looks good, hopefully they don't do anything dumb.
