Not a fantastic PPV, but some decent entertainment. Felt the end to the main event was a bit sudden. The Strowman vs Reigns ending was really well done. The tag team match was my match of the day. Fantastic last two minutes. Wyatt/Rollins was boring.



I thought it was the best PPV WWE's put on in quite some time. People were complaining about Joe/Brock but I thought it was awesome and had no problem with the finish.

good show all around. highlight was slater/hawkins. :haha:

joe was 'made' in this feud. yeah, he lost, but he/they took a given (losing to lesnar) and still were able make it compelling and gave joe a huge boost. fans were chanting 'joe is going to kill you' at brock f'n lesnar. great stuff.

strowman got the face treatment last night with all the concern and attention (plus him walking away on his own making him look resilient), and roman got the 'what was he thinking' heel commentary. nothing is different about them, really, so it was a nice change of pace from the 'roman is just the best, guys, for real' approach, and perhaps officially solidifies roman's 'tweener' status as far as his character presentation goes.

hardys/the bar was great. enzo on the mic was just great, too, and the match was what it needed to be, but probably could have been a bit better if cass was more ruthless and enzo a little scrappier. i dunno, it just felt like it was missing some extra attitude considering the participants. i had not seen alexa do the arm thing previously, so i got worked good there for a minute. that was a decent match with a sensible finish, imo. bray needed a win and rollins could afford a loss, but i've no real interest in seeing these two do anything else unless they can get a much better match out of it.

great balls of fire - awful name, good show.

I look forward to Roman, a baby face who just tried to murder his opponent because he lost to him, getting a title shot at the next PPV.

let's hope they don't actually do that - i certainly have no huge interest in another lesnar/roman. if anything, after last night i want a roman/strowman/joe/lesnar 4-way beat down fest. make this happen, wwe.

Didn't they already announce Roman in a title match at Summerslam? Obviously they have an out if they want it, but I just will assume they will continue the Roman train.

I'd love to see Brock-Balor at SSlam. It's a completely different match than Joe was, but has a chance to be really good as well.

Braun will face Brock and probably win the title

Braun has won me over. Didn't think he could in the beginning. Now he's legit, and does a great job.

Really hope they don't go with a Reigns title run as a face. It won't work.

she's an amazing heel and you shouldn't reduce her to just her amazing ass.

I can't remember a PPV with less hype or that mattered less than tonight's:

Punjabi Prison- Jinder
US Title- Owens
Tag Titles- New Day
Women's Title- Naomi
Nakamura/Corbin- Nak, but by DQ or something like that that protects Corbin
Zayn/Bennett- Bennett

Agreed. It just feels weird that there is a ppv this weekend.

Worst ppv I can remember. WWE really seems to be hitting a bad streak now, though the Samoa Joe vs Lesnar stuff was good, and they have some amazing talent (Styles, Nakamura etc).

Really good predictions numbers.

Aiden English vs Tye Dillinger - no direction from wwe, just throwing these out. I don't really believe in Dillinger anyway, but he did well in NXT. Now he's a clown on the precard and even lost.

The Usos (c) vs New Day - we've seen this a million times before, and the match was mostly cliche. Still it was perhaps the best match of the night. New Day champions again.

Baron Corbin vs Shinsuke Nakamura - mediocre match ending with a typical dq from Corbin. Nakamura is a great talent, so this was disappointing.

Women's #1 Contender For SmackDown - Becky Lynch vs Tamina vs Lana vs Natalya vs Charlotte - had to fast forward here. Surprising winner. Can't see where they are going with Natalya. She's done imo.

AJ Styles (c) vs Kevin Owens - this should be great, yet it wasn't. Why? Bad ending to a slow match. Owens champion again. Hopefully Styles regains or goes on to better things.

John Cena vs Rusev - flag match. :roll: Awful, just awful. Of course Cena won.

Sami Zayn vs Mike Kanellis - felt like a Smackdown match, not a ppv match. Strange with Kanellis losing his first ppv match.

WWE Championship Punjabi Prison Match: Jinder Mahal (c) vs Randy Orton - absolutely awful from start to finish. Jinder retained after records amount of interference.

To avoid just being negative. Do any of you have memories of great matches that you would like to share?
