Rey dressed as Mysterio from Marvel is awesome.

Shame the ankle meant he couldn't put a match on.
Indeed.
Kevin Nash wanting to finger a bloke’s arse was the sign I had to go to bed. That was so unsettling.
That was actually Fake Diesel.
Dr Thuganomics back
Fuck me.
Fucking hell, that was both incredibly sad but brilliant.
Don Cena looks like he has cut weight.
Big Dave even botching the ring entrance, hero.
Pete Dunne was loving that wrench spot.
Feels like HBK is gonna get involved in some way.
Batista looks worse than me after a walk up a couple of flights of stairs.
He's been gassed to fuck since his ring walk.
Wooooooooooooooo.
It's been nearly 5 hours. Why would we want Carmella and R-Truth at this point?
Bold prediction before the womens match starts, 2 of them have a submission applied to the other one at the same time and there's a tap out. Probably Charlotte and Becky on Ronda.
Do we really need this long ass entrance?
Becky must be cold.
Becky
Botched finish, ugh.
That was a very good match and a very good idea. Shame the ref didn't see it as he could have extended the count one and it'll have been fine.
Ref Hawkins would have seen it.
Felt like they overran though as they quickly ended after it.
I only caught the arse end of the pre-show. Hawkins winning was fine but I bloody hate small package finishes. They don't convince me when the build is, "He's proper out of it and the guy he's fighting is fresh." Ali's face smashing the announcers table was good.
Didn’t bother watching but seeing that The Iiconics won makes me happy. Was the overall show worth fast forwarding through?
I enjoyed it, but it was definitely too long. 5 hours 20 mins or so just for the main show. A lot of that was in-between matches or taken up with entrances though.
For example the Rollins v Lesnar, Joe v Rey and Balor v Lashley, the entrances were longer than the matches themselves. There was a fair bit of other shit inbetween matches.
Decent card though. No match was particularly shit, save for Joe v Rey but we know why.
My 2 biggest complaints were that 1, I feel they made The Miz look quite thick at the end of his match and 2, the womens match seemed to end quite suddenly. It was quite a fast paced match but it felt like it needed another 5 mins to build to it.
I was drifting in and out of sleep for most of it, but managed to catch all of the main matches. I loved Rollins battering Lesnar. Kofi winning was the moment of the year, and possibly even tops Bryan at 30.
I thought the women's match was a bit of a botchfest. I was expecting to it to be the best women's match of all time, and it just felt "quite good" to me. At least the right person won.
Agreed on the women’s match, it was nowhere near as good as I had expected though it was alright. Too many botches and I didn’t care for the finish.
Kofi vs Bryan was incredible, the rest was average at best, and I still can’t suffer through “the demon” so I skipped that.
Cena was another highlight.
Wait... people are acting like the Ronda thing was a botch? I felt her angry reaction and Corey pointing it out made it look like it was planned. Many other botches sure, but I didn’t think the finish was, I felt they were keeping her strong.
I really enjoyed the show. Damn near all of my favorites won including THE IICONICS
It was definitely a 'botched' finish like the Roman/Lesnar cage one. It just felt weird though that they cut so quickly after it.Originally Posted by Browning
I was pretty entertained throughout, none of the matches were really that great bar Kofi/Bryan and parts of the Smackdown tag match but I enjoyed it.
I'll also see who the winner in the pick em is later unless someone else wants to do it for me.
That Andre The Giant statue is so cheap it's incredible. What a piece of shit.
In joint last place we have:
Bruhnaldo, Gray Fox and Mike on a grand total of 5 points.
In third place we have:
Master of the Pleb Roll, Pleb on 6 points
In second place we have:
Ian the bastard on 7 points
The winner and BEST IN THE WORLD at pick em:
Mahow on 9 points.
Only Gray Fox picked the BEST IN THE WORLD to win as we're all idiots and Bruh was the only one to pick Tony 'I count my abs' Nese. No one got Carmella to win the Battle Royal or Jezza to beat Angle in his last match.
So everyone though Kurt Angle who could barely move wasn’t going to put someone over? As much as it sucked that was incredibly obvious I thought.
I think the only proper shock outcome was the Iconics, but I’m glad they won. I originally thought Sasha and Bayley would retain but when the match started I was convinced Nattie was getting it with the Hart Attack.
Alright Captain Hindsight.
My extraordinary pessimistic view of creative finally doomed me but in the best way
IICONICS
KOFI
BECKY
SETH
beautiful.
The IIconics winning was brilliant. You could see how much it meant to them. I feel like they deserve it too, as they feel like the only "proper" women's tag team.
I also loved the way that they won, it fits them perfectly.
I didn't even see Billie Kay make the tag live. It was very smartly done.
So how long before Kofi loses the title?
Can’t beluve Don Cena wasn’t fighting Kurt Angle in his Thug Life gimmick since it was his debut match.
That's Doctor of Thuganomics Waff, Don Cenah is dead.
Just finished watching. Kofi vs Bryan was amazing. The rest was alright.
As WWE can't decide if there going to do a Saudi show or not on the Network, Money In The Bank is next and you would of thought considering putting the New Day lot up for consideration or god forbid Drew McIntyre for both men's ladder matches.
Who else we got for the men's then? Corbin?

Batista has also come out on twitter confirming his Sports Entertainment retirement.
Don Cena.
While they got a surprising amount of the results right that was a very, very bad show.
Bork losing (not a good match though it amused me that he lost to 5 moves), Usos retaining (not a good match), IIconics winning (not a good match but a good finish), Becky winning (weak match, crap finish) and the WWE title match as the only good match top to bottom.
Oh, and hearing Cena's old music was good.
I did like that Michael's Cole voice jumped off a cliff by the end of it.
I imagine he's barely going to be able to speak on RAW which could enhance the inevitable shitshow.
Cena was the best bit about that show.
Kofi v Rollins in a Title v Title match on RAW.
I know I said I wouldn't care if it was only for 1 day or not but come on...
If they didn't have a Shakeup arranged for next week I think then I'd believe that they're doing away with the dual brands.
Hopefully/I assume that it will end in a double count out or a DQ or something.
My assumption was going to be Lars comes out and causes the DQ but I guess that isn't happening now.
