Watching it now, enjoying it so far. At New Day vs Dudleyz
Bit of a slipup from JBL during the match. He said the first tag team tables match took place at MSG featuring Dudleyz for a Summerslam. It was actually Royal Rumble 2000 vs the Hardyz in a great match

Just fast-forwarded through it. Meh. Glorified houseshow. Big Show got the treatment Diesel got when he left WWF. Nothing exciting or unexpected happened.

It IS a house show they decided to let us watch. It's just a network bonus.

It was ok, didn't expect much as it was a house show.

OK, so I'm at the ending of Dudleys/New Day. Can someone tell me how the Midnight Hour/Big Ending through the table would work exactly? Only thing i can can figure is the tag move is basically an elevated/assisted DDt so it would have been Kofi sacrificing himself to drive Devon's head through the table (Big E wouldn't fall as normal).

It was alright. I liked the Owens/Jericho match and I loved Big Show getting destroyed by Brock but everything was just matches I've already seen a bunch of times. One of the biggest problems I have with todays WWE is them repeating matches over and over again. I've always hated rematches as to me it's boring and uninteresting watching something I've already seen countless times. Dudley Boyz and New Day wrestling the almost exact same match with the same finish was ridiculous. At least they had the decency to combine Orton/Sheamus and Ziggler/Rusev into a tag match as those are two other matches that have been done to death.

Surprised there wasn't one mention that Brock FAILED to lift the Big Show on his first F5 attempt. That was an all out botch, son.

I also must point out that I HATE that Show refuses to take a proper bump to the F5 and turns, mid swing, into a back bump. Looks sloppy as shit and not nearly as devasting looking.

I was quite surprised that the first F5 Lesnar gave Show yesterday actually resembled an F5 in that Show almost landed on his face rather than his back.

I thought these were very impressive I think Show has to land slightly side on so he doesn't crush Lesnar's face with his 500 pound ass.

Pretty boring show honestly. Besides Jericho vs Owens nothing seemed fresh. I wish they could have gotten an NXT title match on the show.

It's probably way more dangerous for show to land face first doing it than it is for a normal wrestler i'd imagine.

Bigger dudes always do that. Super dangerous to do a flat front bump at that size. Hell even Samoa Joe avoids those bumps.

I feel like I'm the only person who was satisfied with the show. People are in fact aware that regardless of whether or not it aired on the Network this was still a house show right? This is exactly what you'd find on a house show. Anyone who was expecting a shocking twist in the story or a title change were setting themselves up for disappointment I'm afraid. And damnit, that cage match was pretty damn good. When 2015 comes to a close, it's going to be a tie between John Cena and Seth Rollins for hardest working wrestler of the year. I agree. The best actual cage match I've seen in years and the show itself picked up greatly from when Jericho appeared onwards. Rough start but it got better. I feel like people just give up if a show doesn't start great and then moan when WWE gives up on someone who doesn't start red hot.

Meh, I was really excited for this and was expecting another Beast In The East. So much of this show kinda sucked.
- First off, why is a cage match main eventing a show right before we get a Hell In A Cell ppv?
- The Divas match was poorly booked.
- Too much backstage crap and promos like a Raw episode, not to mention storyline stuff.
- Much as I dug Lesnar crushing Show, I hate that they acted like it was the first time. It just happened less than two years ago at the Rumble.
- This can be a complaint for any current WWE show, but like half the matches featured Attitude Era guys.

Orton and Ziggler vs Sheamus and Rusev Owens vs Jericho - Attitude Era New Day vs Dudleys - Attitude Era Divas Match Lesnar vs Big Show - Attitude Era Cena vs Rollins - Attitude Etra due to Kane's involvement So yea, more than half. Two thirds.
