I think the matches were good, endings were weak.
I like Corbin but he was a distant 5th on people who I wanted to win

Mahal on Talking Smack "the haters hate me because the color of my skin". Fantastic.

Was a good PPV.
As for Corbin, I just dont see it. Im fine with him wining I guess because you need to take a chance to build new stars, but I am not impressed with this guy at all.

Re: Money in the Bank (June 18th, 2017)
Anyway, PPV was a bit rubbish. Their was one match that was above average (Tag team title match)
Pleasantly surprised they gave the case to big banter. Match itself was not nearly as good as it should have been. I mean it wasn't the best option either (my pick would have actually been AJ Styles or Ziggler if you wanted shock factor) but they clearly like Corbin and he's miles better than Jinder.
Not so pleasant though for the womans one (yes, have Ellsworth make a mockery of the concept cause lols). They need to have Daniel Bryan return and go off on that finish, the case should be on the line. Match was sub par also to be fair. Also Charlotte or Becky where the only right options here (as they're the only ones worth a main event women right now to be honest, Natalya, Carmella and Naomi are all mid).
Lana vs Naomi, basically what i expected, maybe a bit better because it wasn't Eva Marie bad. Lana isn't a wrestler and it showed though and Naomi isn't carrying anyone to a good match. Also that finish, why would you run the distraction finish then not have them finish off. Also No Rusev = no buys.
WWE title match was all kinds of boring but its an Orton match, of course it was. I think Jinder also fits into the category of being boring as anything.
So the Ascension did it? Ok fair enough. (they're dead to be honest, as a tag team they've been dead for years).
Hype Bros vs Colons was typical pre-show fodder (WWE need, and i mean NEED to bring Carlito back if they want this to work, he's the main talent out of this gen).
Usos and New Day honestly might have been MOTN, not that it really says much. Was probably the only really solid match on the card.
Fun Fact: Smackdown has 1 face champion (Naomi), the rest are all heels.
they need to hit reset again, properly this time.

What they should do is have Zayn become the number one contender and win the title from Mahal, only for Corbin to cash in and screw him over right after winning. It gives the audience a huge pop when Zayn wins, but keeps him the underdog when he's immediately screwed over.

I just liked it because it's a fantastic heel thing to say and something I wouldn't really expect from the WWE.

Re: Money in the Bank (June 18th, 2017)
Oh. Then yeah i guess, its kind of a weird thing with Bret Hart being face overseas and heel in the US (though in this case, Jinder's a face in India and heel everywhere else).

Re: Money in the Bank (June 18th, 2017)
Corbin cashing in on Sami as soon as Sami wins the title makes too much sense. Jinder (c) vs Sami at SummerSlam, Sami fights through the Singh Brothers, barely manages to beat Jinder. Then before Sami can even touch the title, out comes Baron.
It's perfect.

I'd give him a minute to celebrate first to make the crowd think it's legit. Kind of like how Triple H had them show the credit graphic at the last Takeover so we'd think the Ciampa turn wasn't happening. Then Corbin slides into the ring, Zayn turns around and walks right into an End of Days, Corbin cashes in the briefcase, then pins Zayn for the 1-2-3.
