The Black vs Cesaro match was every bit as good as I thought it would be

I would've preferred Finn-Nak in the main and the Mixed Tag Champ Match in the Pre Show.

Surprised Bayley won after her "controversial" interview.

Wasting that Finn -Nak match on a effing pre-show made zero sense. Only way it would make even a little sense is if Finn helps AJ win and joins the club

Even then it doesn’t because a big loss would make that make more sense. Him turning is a story in itself if it happens. Needs to make sense. An off screen loss (for most people) doesn’t do that.

So the New Day holding the world and tag team titles at the same time has to solidify them as one of the greatest factions ever, right?

I mean, in kafaybe, yes. in reality, not really (maybe in WWF/WWE exclusively, but the NWO exist, then you have other major factions that have been huge or are huge currently).

Ahhhhh.

So we're going back to this huh. Unless this leads to Bryan as world champ i ain't interested tbh. Not that I'll miss the universal title, the worst thing they ever did was get rid of the big gold (possibly the best wrestling belt to ever exist) for this flaming pile of red trash (i know it wasn't directly a replacement in timeline but it basically is). Hopefully with AJ as U.S champ, they make him the centre piece of raw and the main event (as he should be, he's the best wrestler in the entire company alongside Daniel Bryan). If its Roman again though, I swear....... Common sense it should be Braun since this was the first time we've seen that side of him in a while. Just let Braun do Braun things and have him win the title at Summerslam and go from there (hell, turn Roman heel even, its about time they followed their own formula to building a superstar anyway).

PPV wasn't bad i guess but by no means was it good either. Main event was so boring, may Corbin not be seen near a main event ever again (seriously, he was basically Jinder 2.0 waiting to happen) and may they send Lacey back down to NXT to learn how to wrestle properly.

I give this ppv a thumbs up. Missed the first 30 mins though. Have to go back and watch it.

Was a really good show. I didnt dislike any match to be honest. Taker performed well. Styles/Richochet and Joe/Kofi were awesome.

As for Lesnar, meh. I hate the infatuation with this guy. The title being defended once every four months and ignored almost every Raw simply made the product worse. And it will again.

I mean, nothing is better than Corbin as champ to be fair. Maybe not better than Rollins though. Hopefully Brock is a transitional champ otherwise raw isn't going to have a world champion (again).

Vince truly is a horrible booker though, honestly current vince is getting comparable to Russo as a the WOAT booker when it comes to logic.

Other than that ending, this was a pretty damn good show from top to bottom. Can't remember the last time I was able to say that about a wwe ppv

Enjoyed the mixed tag interactions. Lacy pummeling Seth and Corbin with the End of Days to Becky was refreshing. Mixed Tag Titles perhaps?

And interesting to see how Heyman's new role will influence Brock's creative direction.

Subtle semi PG details with the middle finger, zooming in on Evans' butt, uncensored promos, etc also elevated the quality.

A bit concerned with Bryan doing diving head butts again and KO basically doing Sami rants on Shane.

Shockingly, letting wrestlers go out and wrestle works. Who would have thought?
