I didn't find it was a bad PPV, just average. Pretty much what I expected as everything has been building towards SummerSlam.
Tag match was extremely good though, definitely have to give it praise.

If you want a "YAY WWE YAY" echo chamber, try the WWE Facebook page. I don't facebook. I want a place where people go in liking the WWE product knowing what the WWE products is and figuring odds are they'll be happy with it. Try Tout

Say what you will about the lack of Ambrose vs. Rollins, but what they did was far more effective than just a match, imo. I won't even give the main event too much grief because it was kinda obvious Cena was winning. Even if you ignored the leaks, Roman Reigns was the only other guy that really had a shot and I'd rather them wait for a better time. But man, did they kill the crowd after the opening match. Seriously, who thought that was a good idea? Usos vs. Harper and Rowan was fantastic, but they were done after that.

Makes sense. If you want people who'll just eat up whatever the WWE serves, then Youtube or Facebook are honestly your best bets. EDIT: Or the aforementioned WWE Magazine.

This forum is usually one of the most positive wrestling communities on the net.

It is the renewal period and Brock will most likely be defending the title so I think it will probably be stacked. You think it would be Brock vs Cena rematch? It's sad to me because it's the first ppv here since 2002 and I'm on the "not going" side of the fence.... Makes the most sense but I am not sure they'll go with Cena taking two PPV loses in a row like that.

How can WWE be so clueless about their own product? this is what they have to offer. There's not much they could do to change it, due to injuries and age and retirements. They tried to put a new guy in the main event, everyone says he's not ready. Maybe some people want Ambrose or Rollins instead? People talking about loose cannons when they talk Ambrose mention Pillman way more than Austin. Pillman never exactly carried a company. And Rollins is doing a pretty good job being overshadowed despite being very entertaining If they want to change it, how about spending their enormous amount of available airtime building multiple new stars, instead of the "well we're pushing X so Y and Z will have to be cooled down and placed on a waiting list" approach?

I'm like 99% sure WWE has it's own forum. There's a letters section in WWE Magazine. Really they got it all covered. Shame they apparently discontinued WWE Kids, because you imagine it would probably be even more ideologically pure.

No, people here like WWE when they occasionally break their predictable booking pattern, with something which actually makes sense, although it tends to come either by accident, or fan pressure forcing their hands.

"when it serves up exactly what they think is a good idea". That 'good idea' = A well booked, thought-out PPV. There.
