Some good matches, some duds.

May not have been as impactful as CM Punk debut in AEW but Becky Lynch and Babyface Brock returns redeemed them a bit.

Lol forgot it's today not Sunday!

WWE going all in on Roman I see, though I'm afraid having Brock return is a foreshadowing of Heyman turning on Roman. I don't want Reigns as a face

If they did the surprise angle ala Goldberg to Brock it's more believable. But Becky who hasn't seen action for months and looks like who lost a ton of weight going over Bianca who has steamrolled over the SD competition? Should've built this up and have Becky return next SD

Curious if they'll let him talk or have a mouthpiece with him

My thoughts exactly. Roman is killing it as a Heel. They need to have Heyman turn on Brock instead

A solid, solid PPV. I was watching last night until Boogz appeared on my screen and then I called it a night. Can’t stand the sight of him. It turns out he wasn’t on screen for all that long, but couldn’t take any chances — all his **** is annoying.

Becky returning and then winning like that… seemed like they bungled it. Bianca didn’t need to be beat like some scrub.

Glad they kept Lashley super strong like that. Seems like their feud is continuing, which I’m kind of okay with. There isn’t another premier ME level guy for him to feud with now anyway. Goldberg looked great physically. Better than his last several outings.

Roman over Cena was the obvious decision — especially after Roman’s “if you win I leave WWE” stipulation. Good match, and Brock coming back at the end was dope.

I did expect much less from Goldberg. He did show his age a bit when picking up Lashley but overall he wasn't horrible by any means. This only helps Lashley grow more.

I hope they keep babyface Brock and have him lose to Reigns. Let him win the Rumble and challe ge Lashley at next years Mania.

They'll eventually run out if bosses, no? Ultimate boss should be The Rock at WrestleMania

I wonder how far this title run with Roman will go. He’s a few days shy of a year right now. Does he drop it to Brock and then beat him back before WM vs the Rock? Does he carry it straight through? If so — if it’s not Cena or Brock or the Rock that beats him for it, then who?

I wonder if they have anyone in mind at this point. Either way it’s fine because I don’t think anyone’s complaining.

Forgot about people mentioning Trips as another "boss". Bur damn could you image Roman going through all those legends? They should be building someone up in RAW or in SD to challenge Roman. Closest would be Nakamura and Big E from SD and Drew and Bobby from RAW, although the latter 2 wouldn't be a fresh face

That's what I'm guessing the play is, and then I can see Rock winning & Big E cashing in at the end. Gives E his moment on the main stage, gets the title off of Roman in a believable manner, and then you can start the E-Roman feud for a few months.
