I'm interested in seeing how Cain looks in the ring, how they pull off Lacey and Natty, and falls count anywhere match since I like gimmick no DQ matches. From a technical wrestling perspective this may be the weakest card of all time outside of the AJ match I guess

Another terrible Saudi show from what I'm hearing.

Though Lacey and Nattie was well received at least.

This feels like an episode of Raw and not a PPV

The Bliss Nikki trade...

So they planned to give Bray the win here at Halloween weeks ago.

Probably should have just scrapped the HIAC match altogether and saved it for CJ

People are already speculating that "Bray Wyatt" will be on SD, but "The Fiend" will be on RAW.

Big of the Saudis to allow women to show some face skin

It has never been a "PPV' (not that those exist anymore - but I know what you mean). These events have been glorified house shows from the very beginning. They're just getting paid a ton of money for them.

Yeah, I'm legit shocked that Wyatt won today because of the glorified house show feel that these have given off. Has there even been one title change at any of the Saudi shows before this one?

I think Brock won Roman's vacated title at one.

Yeah, if the plan was always to give him the title here, in no way should they have done it at Hell in a Cell. Should have had the Fiend versus someone else for the title shot at Crown Jewel and had Rollins wrestle someone else. Then you can build the Fiend up and also give Rollins a big win prior to putting over the Fiend. Instead, Rollins just looks like crap and the Fiend starts off his title push with two of the worst matches of the year.

Another idea floating around is Rey beating Brock to get the WWE title to RAW. I mean lol Rey beating Brock, but this is pro wrestling and it would solve the title issue.

Did anyone see the water bottles thrown at Nattie and Ric Flair?

Agreed about the red lighting its awful and makes me lose interest in Wyatt matches. I also
thought Tyson Fury looked awful in the ring even for a celebrity. I also actually like Mansoor
I'd like to see him get some more burn. Kind of cool to see the Fiend win on Halloween though
I guess interesting how they get a world tittle back on RAW.

Also not sure what to make of Velasquez getting destroyed by Brock quickly and if it damages him
going forward. He's signed for awhile now right?

Bothers me more than it should that a red title could be the main title on the blue brand
