They're managing to kill Becky Lynch, you know the expression turning chicken s**t into chicken salad. Well this company turns chicken salad into Chicken S**t. Also i'm at the point where they honestly should take the title off of Rollins, i'm sorry (and i've been consistent with this) he shouldn't have been rewarded for his horrible performances during his feud with Dean and out of the three big title changes, his was the most meh at mania.

I mean i don't think Bayley is losing the title but i am intrigued with a Bliss vs Cross non title feud (then again WWE doesn't do non title womens feuds anyway).

Strowman vs Lashley hopefully is good, and i hope they restore Strowman (honestly, just give him the universal title and do a double turn there, or at least turn Rollins heel).

Shane McMahon should never be on tv in a wrestling capacity ever again, make him a manager or just get him off the screen (in fact, get all McMahon's off the screen and return to the days of Tunney tbh).

I'm quietly hoping Joe wins, Kingston has been very good but i do think its time, Kingston ultimately is a mid carder (a good one with a good reign) and now would be the time to pay that off. Have Joe reign until mania i say.

AJ Styles vs Ricochet should be MOTN easily, hell, it is more of a main event caliber match then anything on the card (then again, its cause it has AJ Styles). I kind of hope he wins the title also cause he will do well with that belt.

Daniel Bryan deserves so much better than the tag team titles, hopefully his contract is coming up soonish (him in AEW or New Japan/CMLL, actually him doing the New Japan + CMLL loop would be amazing and a perfect fit). In saying that, if Kofi is dropping, it wouldn't be a bad idea to get them as tag team champs again or even Heavy Machinery (via pinning Rowan) as champs. Otis being a comedy guy aside, smackdown needs more legit tag teams.

Revival vs Usos should be a very good match but ultimately i think the Usos are getting those belts back. But this is what they need from the tag team division, actual tag teams teaming up.

Strowman vs Lashley hopefully is good, and i hope they restore Strowman (honestly, just give him the universal title and do a double turn there, or at least turn Rollins heel).

I'd be so down for heel Strowman as Universal Champ

Yeah Monster Heel Strowman would be amazing. If he gets over then he can be monster face strowman (which is more or less the same thing tbh).

lol this has got to be the least "Extreme" Extreme Rules PPV I've ever seen...

I mean on one hand I get it they've had a lot of injuries the last few years and this is the PG era and
SummerSlam is a month away and they want everyone healthy but this is a joke and it's even more
comical that its in Philadelphia. They should just scrap this PPV and bring back Great Balls of Fire,
Vengeance or Fully Loaded or one of their old July PPVs. Hell I wish they would bring back Bash at
the Beach maybe Bischoff can pull some strings.

As for this PPV this has gotta be the first PPV in history where the main event is the least interesting
match on the card. Does anybody really think Lacey and Corbin are gonna win? and the more important
question is does anybody even care?

I'd be shocked if Roman/Undertaker don't main event

They really shouldn't. Shane and Taker can't work at all.

Though i applaud WWE for getting Roman hated with a few months of returning from Cancer of all things.

Seriously you'd almost think WWE was trying to bury him instead of build him up.

Seems like a no win situation for fans lol

[improper]

Imagine watching your ratings tank for years now and still thinking Corbin or Reigns should be main eventing a PPV at this point.

It's like they want to fail.

[Flames24Rulz]

If the PPV doesn't end with Wyatt, it's a massive disappointment for me.

[heatwillbeback]

If Undertaker is going to be forced down our throats for ratings it’s best that it is in a tag match. He could sit 95% of it, do his three moves (old school, choke slam and tombstone) then leave.

He could still hurt people (especially with the Tombstone) but it’s less than a full match of safety issues with a guy who can’t cut it any more.

C'MON KIA!!!

[The_Brecht]

In case I don't see the KIA:


— Aleister Black vs Cesaro

— Becky Lynch (c) & Seth Rollins (c) vs Baron Corbin & Lacey Evans [Last Chance Winners Take All Extreme Rules Mixed Tag Team Match for the Raw Women's Championship and Universal Championship]

— Bayley (c) vs Alexa Bliss & Nikki Cross [SmackDown Women's Championship Handicap Match]

— Bobby Lashley vs Braun Strowman [Last Man Standing Match]

— Drew Gulak (c) vs Tony Nese [Cruiserweight Championship Match]

— Drew McIntyre & Shane McMahon vs Roman Reigns & The Undertaker [No Holds Barred Tag Team Match]

— Kofi Kingston (c) vs Samoa Joe [WWE Championship Match]

— Ricochet (c) vs AJ Styles [United States Championship Match]

— The Planets Tag Team (c) vs Heavy Machinery vs The New Day [SmackDown Tag Team Championship Triple Threat Match]

— The Revival (c) vs The Usos [Raw Tag Team Championship Match]

3 title changes
no cash in
Owens interferes in the Shane match

[iMoreland]

They added Finn (c) vs Shinsuke to the kickoff show... I don't get it. Why not just have them main event SmackDown in 2 days?

man what a waste

[Scott Hall]

Balor jobs on the preshow in a 5 minute match woof...

Would never happen but they should probably move him to NXT UK and make him the franchise guy there
especially if they're serious about that brand and want to make it relevant. Although I'd try him in the
Club with AJ and the Good Brothers first.

[Dominator83]

All kinds of waste going on here. You have Nak winning the IC belt and nobody gives a **** about it. That should have been how you closeout this week's smackdown. Not only that, but tomorrow on RAW I would've been hyping up "tune in tomorrow night can't miss our main event Finn vs Nakamura IC title on the line".

But nah. Let's just waste it on a pre show that nobodys watching or cares about.

That was actually much better than I expected.
