Completely forgot about this. Missed Cass vs. Bryan and most of Lashley vs. Zayn.

Actually quite pleased about that. Horrible feuds.

Time to walk with Elias.

Cass vs Bryan was poor. Gallows & Anderson V Bludgeon brothers did have its moments but was predictable but still deserved to be on the main show over Bryan V Cass

She only just lost the belt, surprised she won but her character does suit winning it

Yeah, I expected it to be someone else, but I'll take it. She could have been more involved in the match, though. It felt like she was barely involved in that match.
 
Best match between aj/nakamura. Finally delivers but nakamura should have won. What was the point of him turning heel? Having said that Joe v. Aj please now. Aj is phenomenal, no doubt.
 
Took them 4 attempts but great match.

Don't know what they do with Nakamura now though. 4 attempts at the title and 4 failures.

Strowman didn’t need the win, but as long as he cashes in at SummerSlam I will be happy

Yes exact feeling, they could have given it to Joe or Miz. But it makes summerslam fun to watch and hopefully finally braunn gets the title. He fecking deserves it.

He could have challenged at Summerslam without the briefcase though... I mean, it's not exactly hard to build Strowman as a legitimate contender is it?

Daft booking if you ask me.

She is just awful.

You state this like it's fact but that's you're opinion. I quite like her, one of my favs.

I agree but with the way he has been pushed, it is not that bad he won. Although someone else would have benefited better with the MITB.
 
Now wwe have to make sure braun cashes in clean, meaning he announces beforehand and beats Lesnar clean 1,2,3. Feck roman. Braunn is the one who should beat lesnar. Roman can win the title down the road but now it's the time for braun, no waiting till mania bs. It is Braun's time NOW

Its always funny to read smarky comments like this stated with confidence as though they were facts. Check out her entrance last night and see the pop she got, it was louder than any other participant in the match. And its not just last night, she's mighty over and her character work is top notch. Not everyone wants to see just pure technical wrestlers, it takes more than that to keep people entertained.
 
Alright PPV on the whole. AJ/Nakamura match would have felt more epic if it wasn't their fifth match in 2 months, one of which was a no DQ they pitched as being decisive. No idea where Nakamura goes from here though. And while the Nia/Rousey match was good(probably best I've seen Nia) and the cash in really worked, do they really have to make Alexa champion again. She's essentially been champion for her entire main roster run bar her first 5 months and hasn't had a single stand out match in that time. Don't get why they keep the belt on her so much. Glad to see Ellsworth back but part of me thinks he's back to make Carmella more interesting because she's just not very good. And I'm with everyone else with regards to the men's briefcase. Strowman should be winning the title in straight up match and doesn't need the briefcase to get a title shot, should have gone to Miz or Joe instead.
 
Considering how bad the build up was and Raw/SD were both so bad going in to this. I thought it was pretty good.

Do I need to qualify everything with "in my opinion"? I'm not claiming to be the all-knowing oracle, take it as given that's it an opinion ffs.

Ronda was great. Thought without Angle and HHH calling the shots, she might be lost, especially with Nia but she looks totally comfortable after 2 matches.

An opinion is something that can be discussed. You call someone the worst thing to happen to women's wrestling in the last few years, that doesn't leave much room for discussion. So don't blame others for calling you out on that.

Nah that’s Bayley and thats a fakt....

Don’t mind Alexa, think the character and promo work is probably the best of all the woman. She actually performs in the ring and reacts with the crowd. All that is good stuff. Isn’t a terrible wrestler but could be improved certainly. Should have pulled a twisted Bliss off a ladder last night but i’d imagine the reason she wasn’t really involved in the match was due to them not wanting to risk an injury for her involvement later. Kinda intrigued as to what is going to happen with her Nia and Rousey but I’m sensing a three way at the next ppv.

Men’s ladder match was ok. After seeing that NXT one a few months ago all future ladder matches will be ruined until one nears that or surpasses it quality.
 
If you haven't seen it, watch the Hardy's 24 documentary. A really good watch.
 
Thank feck Braun won. He should have been the one to end Lesnar's title reign way back despite people claiming he didn't need the title. Hopefully now he finally goes over Lesnar clean to end a title run that's been as bad as Mahal's.

Also apparently announced they're launching NXT UK and the first tapings are next month 5 minutes from my house in Cambridge. Pumped would be an understatement.
 
Rousey destroying bliss could be so much fun tho

Braun defo needs to cash in like rvd. And he needs to win. About time they do that.

Not sure what nakamura can do tho
And asuka just seems like a standard person now
Gotta give wwe credit for doing that so effectively and with no effort lol
 
There was a story last month saying he went off-script when he beat down the Daniel Bryan dwarf (little person? I dunno). Apparently he was told to do just a big boot and that was supposed to be it but he started punching the guy on the ground after it.

Maybe they knew he was gone after that but wanted to finish Bryan's first feud back properly.
 
He must have really pissed somebody off to be fired so soon after being brought back for a feud with somebody as high profile as Bryan.
