I personally think the issue with match wasn't it being cut short. But the overly excessive use of Super Kicks, and the back and forth superkick trade off. If they talked more to each other in the match, then it would've worked for the story telling regardless of the cut time. One brother trying to talk sense, the other brother felt betrayed.

[@anthonyanderson9303]

I doubt Jey will ever see this but I gotta be one of the minority voices that shout out that he has NOTHING to be ashamed of in that Mania match. **** the haters, the emotion was there. That "I am NOT my brother's keeper" video package was one of the best match promo video shots of all goddamn time. And the emotion when he held that kick short as his brother was in the middle of the ring holding his hand up was THERE. I know you want to see banger matches, but it's not always about the moves used, it's about the story you tell and the emotion you evoke. I'll die on the hill that it was a great match and a great moment for two brothers who grew up in the business. Hold your head up Uce.

[@syvajarvi2289]

I’d like for them to show their actual move set instead of the three moves of doom. Let the talent get creative and mix things up. Time can be an issue so some set ups have to be cut. I like Jey and Jimmy. Both need a submission hold of some kind and move past the spear and super kicks. Let them grow their move sets into singles sets, let one do a version of the Samoan drop as a signature……. Something different so they can move out of the bloodline shadow. Edit: Give Jimmy the Thez press as a set up to his splash since he is heal and shows a vicious streak.……. Jey, the Samoan Drop. Give them their own signature move outside of what has been seen in years. I like watching both of them and they are both really good. Give them the room to shine.

[@jackfranzino7887]
