Banks vs Rousey was pretty damn good

[Abdullah]

I don’t talk about Sasha or Ronda that much but that was a pretty compelling match where, for the first time in a good minute, I saw what made Sasha so great back in NXT.

Intrigued by the moment at the end too. Four stars.

[TWERKIN' MAGGLE]

I didn't like how much damage Ronda tanked through at the end. That was a little much.

[häšhtå.gdālėÿ]

You missed the thread then. Rhonda is not only a horrible person but also a terrible wrestler. Negative match!

...

I agree with you completely. People let their negative feeling for Rhonda out during her matches. It’s silly at this point.

[Dat Dude]

It’s good to have glimpses of old Sasha back

[PKO]

Sasha looked amazing. She hasn’t come across like that in such a long time, she had such an aura to her.

Ronda held in there, but I’d place the sloppier moments on her shoulders judging from the first watching. Honestly, it’s the first time I think someone has outshone her in a match; she usually comes across so different from the other women on the roster.

[Mozenrath]

I do not like Ronda as a person, but if she's ending her WWE tenure at Mania like believed, then I think she can look back on it with pride.

It was a good match that looked like it was going to be great based upon the first 5 mins

They slowed their momentum down and got a little clunky and never really recovered the pace they had but it was still a good match

Sasha Banks looked amazing and as motivated she has been since probably 2017. Ronda looked okay but it was certainly sloppy for her but we know she can do better. Felt like people were looking for stuff to nitpick on her but she did fine and is still one of the better performers on the roster but she wasn't wowing people like she usually does

Overall, I enjoyed the match. They seemed to be teasing the 4 horsewomen vs 4 horsewomen but with Ronda leaving and the other 2 not named Shayna being green as shit idk when that happens

[ISO Mid Thigh Pull]

It was alright when it wasn't Ronda flailing around like a nerd looking for judo throws.

[Mayonnaise]

It was good but I'm so sick of Sasha in this role that it dragged the match down for me. Her playing a cocky bitch that is a loveable underdog face just didn't click with me. I did like the story told with Ronda having to pin her/not being able to make her tap.

[Rican]

I enjoyed it a lot. There were some clunky parts but overall I thought it was fun.

Ronda matches are always fun and Sasha looked like her old self so thumbs up from me.

Yea, she conflicts with herself and while Graves was annoying she does come across as a very poor sport sometimes

They made her stronger by having Ronda pin her instead of sub which was the build up to the match but they really have to figure out a direction for Sasha

She had a good night but she's had a lot of good nights that go sour fast

[kingoftheindies]

I was actually bored during the match but mostly cause of Sasha (and I like her). I just don't think she clcked well with Rousey, but I also think the story of the match was kind of half assed

[Deleted]

I thought it started out pretty good but then they lost the rhythm of it and it turned into a total botchfest. Also Sasha looked pathetic both tapping out and being pinned all while Ronda basically didn't sell what all she did for a second.

[schma]

I thought it was an excellent match and Sasha looked like a million bucks even though I knew she wasn't winning. Some of the armbars she did to Ronda looked legit nasty. The bit at the end where Ronda went from a painful submission on an arm that had been worked on all match to suddenly grabbing Sasha and hitting her with a couple signatures was my only real complaint. It was just kinda 'oh right time to end *forgetting to sell*, win *back to selling*. Really though I did enjoy the match.

When Sasha gets a chance, she always reminds us of why she was the top prospect and most popular of the Four Horsewomen when they got called up.

Great match.

[Mid-Carder]

Agree with those who said it looked like the old Sasha. I've gone off her so much over the last few years, it was great to see a reminder of how good she can be.

[King (Super) Dragunov]

The had very little chemistry in my opinion, but even then it wasn't the worst match I've seen from both women.

I loved that Sasha was out submission wrestling Ronda, and Rousey had to pin her instead.

That almost rings of Saturn looking armbar submission by Sasha was brutal and should be her new finisher, looked WAY better than the Bank Statement.
It looked like something Zack Sabre Robot would do.

[abjordans]

I like when Sasha’s mean streak comes out, that was what really set her apart in her NXT run.

[blscks]

Nah. They tried but nope. Funny cause any Ronda/Nia match was better than this.
