I didn't think it was that bad of a show. I thought the wrestling was generally good, just the results weren't all that. If this is the worst PPV of 2015, it shits all over the worst ones from either 2014 or 2013, whatever they were.

The action was good, the only bad parts in my mind were Cena winning and the Lesnar/Rollins snoozefest. I just can't get excited by ten German suplexes in a row.

It was a pretty decent show other than the Cena/Owens finish and the main event idiocy. Money in the Bank was basically awful from beginning to end, so it for me is the worst of 2015 so far.

At arm's length, I love the story it told - the sacred cow, murdered, with barely a hint of comeback at all. I do love that. It's a great story. But the match is absolute ass to watch. It's just suplex suplex suplex suplex suplex DONE. |

At least Royal Rumble had a great WWE World Heavyweight Championship match.
This had nothing! So, yeah... worst PPV of the year so far.

If this is the worst PPV of 2015, it shits all over the worst ones from either 2014 or 2013, whatever they were. I definitely agree with that, IMO the wrestling was very good minus the main event. If Owens would have won or passed out instead of tapping, I bet it would be MOTY candidate. |

I found it really enjoyable actually. Bray/Roman was a surprisingly good match. Cena/Owens was great even if it was the weakest of their three match-ups and had an annoying finish. It had a good tag team match that got good reactions and the women's match was pretty fun. While it didn't have any matches that I would consider the best of the year, it did have a surprising amount of depth to it.

It's a great story. But the match is absolute ass to watch. It's just suplex suplex suplex suplex suplex DONE. They've booked Lesnar into a corner, too. He HAS to be dominant. He annihilated Cena, so there's no way Rollins can pin him clean. And with Kane and J&J being out of action, there was no way Seth could have won on his own and make it be believable. Hell, tons of people on here cry foul when Lesnar got teamed up on during the build up to this match. |

He can't be invincible forever it will get boring fast. |

I've watched every PPV so far this year - and I'm struggling to remember one from the other. Is anyone in a better position than they were six months ago?
It doesn't help that WWE use the same lights/set/production for every show (I long for the days when each show had a different theme/feel to it).

I liked seeing Rollins find out ways to tackle Lesnar's invincibility and fight back, but it could have been way better. Was very excited for that match, hoped Seth would flip out of most of the Germans, but he didn't. Brock should mix up the suplexes a bit. I still want Lesnar dominant and I enjoyed Seth fighting back. Match needed another ten minutes.

It really built on the 'Brock is unstoppable' story on top of Brock breaking the streak. |

Nah, the Divas segment was awesome.
The PPV before this was real real bad.
