Sooo, I understand Undertaker will never get booed. But, that was kind-of a dick move on his part. He lost fair and square to Brock. Why attack him now? Why the low-blow?
And that was it, really? Why not have Undertaker tombstone Brock, *fade to black* than Rollins comes back in the ring to pin Lesnar?

Prime Time Players retained Cena beat Owens and won the feud, again Big Show looked strong in 2015 again Undertaker made Brock his B*tch Why are the Buys and Ratings falling?? IT'S A MYSTERY!! (At least the Divas match was good... it's come to the point we can say that...) You're really going to moan no matter what happens but very sure Undertaker was brought back to counter bad ratings and for summerslam. He'll probably put Brock over again. Need to keep him at least viable as a threat for Brock. Big Show/Miz only happened because Ryback is injured and Miz is a hateable heel. Owens still came up looking stronger than any Cena opponents in recent years. PTP are good I don't know what is there to complain Main event should have been better and the TAKER shenanigans could have happened post match, I give you that

Only positive outcome would be if somehow Brock gets a re-match and just when Taker tries to intervene again, Sting shows up to stop him.

At the end of that ppv I feel... After everything that happened, that's how I feel. The first match was boring, Brie obviously made the Divas match look bad, Owens lost to Cena cleanly even by tapping out, Big Show looks strong in 2015, New Day lost and finally Taker jumped into the final match, took out Lesnar and Rollins is scott free. There's some other small stuff in there too but overall it gives me a "meh" feeling. I'm not interested in watching Raw tomorrow. I don't care why Taker's trying to get his win back. Owens doesn't deserve another title shot, I just don't care which is what a ppv shouldn't allow you to feel like. Annoying ppv.

In 2015!

SETH ROLLINS VS. BROCK LESNAR FOR WWE TITLE
Well, this was a weird one. Obviously it's about drawing a rating tomorrow with Undertaker. So Lesnar gave Rollins 13 suplexes in nine minutes and hit the F-5. At that point the Undertaker's gong played. The referee and Seth Rollins both disappeared into thin air when the lights went out. Undertaker was in and laid Lesnar to waste with a high choke slam and two tombstone piledrivers and the show went off the air. The crowd loved the idea of Undertaker being there so it worked live. As far as a main event went, it was pretty bad as far as going anywhere. The action was fine but it was way too short. They didn't announce a finish or anything. The show ended almost 15 minutes early.

Well, we knew Brock would get hosed, I prefer the Undertaker to J&J by a long shot

Not a satisfying PPV, but at least Raw will be interesting tomorrow. We should get fun promos from Heyman and Rollins at least.

Just for the record, Cena vs Owens involved 8 finishers (counting the STF) and 17 kick-outs and lasted 22 minutes.

...I don't know what you guys are talking about here. Yes, there was that "Sasha and Charlotte making Brie look stupid" thing they randomly aired from some house show, but that's it. There was no show. Stop making things up.
I repeat: Nothing happened.

Cena vs Rollins and to add star power to the match Justin Beiber is the new J&J security who helps Rollins scrape by with an other flukey win.

Ratings and sales are slipping. Cena's drawing power has been hurt since his title win...it was logical from a business standpoint.
Can anyone give me a rundown? I fell asleep and don't really care to watch. Anything interesting?

So many issues... 1. Part-TimerMania now adds Summerslam apparently. It's never a good strategy to pad shows with guys who work limited dates that go over the guys that work full-time. Punk in the AOW podcast summed it up correctly. Using part-timers should be done (1)sparingly and (2)to put over this generation of talent, not each other (i.e. Sting/HHH, Lesnar/Taker). I know, I know people. You're probably thinking that would devalue the past superstars which sap them of their immortality in the wrestling ring? Yes, that's exactly the point. Their time is in the past. Stop fixating on the past. It's like people who bought tickets to that 90s rock cruise starring Everclear and Sugar Ray. C'mon guys! It was barely cool to like those bands at their peak. Why get sea sick or live with the fear of the boat capsizing and the last thing you see before you plunge into the mild Atlantic waters and die is the lead singer of Collective Soul reminding the frenzied crowd they'll be selling their CD over at the seafood section of the buffet? 2. Owens should've gotten over. I mean, it's not the end of the world. Savage did pretty good after he 'jobbed' to Steamboat at WM III. The WWE has a real issue trying to trade wins and keep Cena looking strong even though, at age 38, he's looming closer to a Rock schedule than most realize. Not only because of the mileage on the body, but because America is falling in love with him as the dumb, yet likable boy-toy of Amy Schumer in the romantic comedy "Trainwreck", in theaters now. 3. I think my greatest concern overall is that the quality of wrestling is so solid, that I'm becoming numb to it. I'm realizing that it actually boring me. Hey! This match is 20 minutes long. And there were 24 finishers used. And 75 kickouts at 2 and 3 quarters! This playbook works in moderation. Not in four or five matches a show. None of this is awesome anymore. It's losing its luster. 4. And what are half these guys fighting anymore for? R-Truth is walking around with a plunger. HE'S MOCKING BARRETT! A MAN OF ROYALTY EARNED FROM A FOUR-MAN TOURNAMENT! I guess that's better than feuding over a Japanese shampoo commercial. No, wait....NO IT'S NOT! There has literally never been a better reason for two men to want to break each other's necks than that.
