I think that was the most bafflingly booked show WWE has done.
IC was good. Nak/AJ was great until the finish. The Elias segment was fun.
The rest? Bleh.

All i know is that the woman who led No Way Jose's conga line was smoking hot. But more than that, Fandango's dancing was mesmerizing. Fandango and Bobby Roode should have a danc off to No Way Jose's theme.
That's all i got.

Well, I didn't have the opportunity to watch Backlash live, so now it's time to quickly check out the poll thread to see if it's worth watching afterwards.
...
Oh.

I just thought about this show and now I'm going to beat the hell out of my pillows.

It nuked my last remaining WrestleMania goodwill, I've cancelled my network and am going on another sabbatical.
So because 0 isn't an option, I'm forced to give it a 1 which is exclusively for Seth and Miz.

3. 1 each for Bryan's return match, Seth vs Miz, and the awesome Elias/every other entertaining character segment. Other than that it was awful. Also a 3 for the exact same reasons.

To be fair I really wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people don't actually know anything about that. It was a pretty out of nowhere story that basically played out over the course of a single afternoon then completely vanished.

4. Seth/Miz was outstanding. Everything else was mediocre at best.

Solid enough 7/10 from me, I had enough fun watching it.
Miz-Rollins was fantastic.
WWE Title match finish and Roman going on last and stinking up the place are definite negatives.
Everything else was OK to Good.

I went to bed shortly after the Bobby/Braun tag match and am glad I didn't lose anymore sleep with that pointless main event.
The show did fall off the cliff once Carmella beat Charlotte CLEAN, but as least the show overall wasn't as bad as the Greatest Royal Rumble that literally had one good match.
Most of the matches were decent with the exception of Hardy/Orton being kinda boring, plus that dance segment was really fun.
Not the best pay per view, but certainly not as horrific as people are making it seem. 6/10

IC title match was great, Styles/Nakamura was good until the horrible finish. Roman/Joe was a better match than people think but it was pretty predictable who was going to win. Other than that the show was pretty bad.

6/10, Miz vs. Rollins was MOTN by far, it wasn't going to get any higher than that unfortunately.
Though the Elias segment was very entertaining and this guy has the crowd eating out of the palm of his hand.

4/10
Seth vs Miz, Elias, Ruby Riott and Daniel Bryan/Cass were very good/solid matches.
However when your two feature matches have horrible booking and the main event is absolutely horrible leaving the crowd pissed off I can't give the show a good rating at all.
End of the show made December to Dismember booking look good by comparison.

In the defense of the crowd 1-They are probably casuals that dont know his hometown boy got accused. 2-Accused,dont say he is a rapist when there was no veredict and there is a chance he is innocent,that is how misinformation spreads. 3- There were No We Dont chants.

Pretty nothing show. Great opener and the rest was the definition of filler. But what are you gonna do when it comes on the heels of two Wrestlemania-sized events in the prior 4 weeks?
