So lets see: Cena wins but no cash in from Rollins or Lesnar coming out? Meh, lame...

Though I seem to read that Rollins is injured and Lesnar probablly will come out tommorow as "Plan C"...
 
Worst pay-per-view so far this year by a landslide. Horrible show.

Actually that's probably right as the first three pay per views of the year rocked, Extreme Rules and Payback were really good and Money in the Bank wasn't bad at all.
 
Lmao at all the people complaining about no cash in from Rollins. Didnt he just win the MITB last ppv???!

It was just another show building to Summerslam...no complaints here.
 
hmm, I lost my love for random PPV's I think. I still adore watching chikara, puro etc. and oddly, still really enjoy watching oldschool WWF - been working through, just hit 1997 and loving every show. I just find myself drifting out of the product at the moment and I don't know why. I can't even make any real criticisms of the product, I love the direction they are heading and generally like everyone near the top of the card. I think I'm just a little burned out after 10 years+ of being a huge fan.

I'll watch summerslam. I'm sure i'll be pumped for that. Just tonight, after the incredible Uso/Wyatt match i found myself bored and wanting to do something else on the other monitor. Been that way a lot. I don't find myself pulling for anyone anymore, I think that makes a big difference. Completely indifferent to all. I watch and hope for an iconic Lesnar return. Enjoyed the brawls between Rollins and Ambrose. Loved the Stardust skit. Wanted Bo to win the battle royale actually. But the majority I just don't engage with anymore.

Maybe a break after Summerslam, we'll see.

Solid show I guess?

I didnt complained that he didnt cash in, didnt really expect him to win title. Just that he didnt even try and that after all that "Authority plan B,C" we didnt get nothing tonight in terms of storytelling. :rolleyes:
 
Storyline-wise, tonight didn't need to happen at all. The only match that advances any story was the World title match (and even then, the whole Plan A, B, C stuff wasn't even there). Every other match was either filler matches to make up the card or place-holders for the blow-off at SummerSlam.

Oh, and the Tag Team title match was very well done and a great match. If they extend this match for SummerSlam then that match will have to be a cage match or something.

It should happen tomorrow. No worries.

Rollins was probably plan B and he was chased out of the arena.

Heyman posted a tweet or something that said he was on his way to pick up plan c "Just in case" and hash tagged it Raw.

This next comment isn't directed at you Kodo. Just so there's no confusion.

I enjoyed the bulk of the show. The tag team match stole the show.
Paige/AJ were sloppy as fuck in their match. Primarily Paige.

The Goldust and Stardust segment seemed like random filler but I wasn't bothered by it.

The pre show was horrible match wise but I don't hold that against the pay per view itself.

I wanted Bo to win the IC title but predicted the Miz to so I wasn't too bothered by it. It makes sense for them to put it on him because of the current push they're giving him.

I was hoping Swagger would go over Rusev but I don't like him enough to be upset.

Overall it was an enjoyable show I guess.
 
Obviously, USO's/Wyatt's stole the show. It was just a great tag match and had a good classic feel to it. The lack of Ambrose/Rollins to build for their match at summerslam was good. I thought the idea in general was brilliant the only issue is that there were not many matches on this card. I really had high expectations for Paige/AJ and they were not met at all. I liked the ending to Rusev/Swagger and thought the match was decent. Would have been better if it was a double count out. Jericho/Bray was a good match. I don't mind Jericho winning he will put Bray over the next time they meet. The battle royal was meh. I hated that you could see Miz hiding in about every camera angle. When Dolph/Sheamus were the last two the camera showed the IC title and you see Miz just lying there lol.... Horrible way of it being sneaky. Would have rather had Miz hide under the ring for a bit or do something to make himself less obvious. The final match was a big bleh. I really agree with Smith Hart in that this match will be easily forgettable and is just a filler main event.

With that said the show was for sure the worst this year but it had one of the best matches of the entire year with the Uso's/Wyatt's so just that alone is great in my book. Plus, Sumemrslam time is back and so is Brock. Dolph/Miz will probably be a IC match on the card. I wish they'd give my bro Ryder a push too....
