[Gus Richlen: Ruffian]

Loved it but -1 for Logan f***ing Paul. 7.

[theironyuppie]

I'd say around 7.5, helped by that great main event. Bayley/Raquel was quite good too, though Liv trying to sound serious was a swing and a miss.

[mistery]

The bad:

Logan Paul

Liv's Promo

The Good:

Damage CTRL (they are over, despite what reddit likes to claim)

The Tag Team Contenders Match

Shotzi's face turn

[msc]

It all flowed together very well.

[asuka007]

8.5/10:

Logan Paul as a filler defense for Roman is fine. At least a full timer doesn’t have to lose here.

Solo Solo feels already like the most interesting part of The Bloodline. He feels like he should be a babyface. Him and Sami as a team for a bit could be fun.

This was probably Raquel’s best match, so of course it was with Bayley. Also babyface Shotzi again, YES!! Now just give her her tank back please.

I don’t even hate Ronda, I LIKE her stuff with Pearce and Shayna.
But if she just beats Liv, that will be a really lame “payoff” to all of our this.

The ME was awesome. And it’s great to see how over Sheamus is.

Good show.

[Fade]

Sami dancing outta 10

[msc]

Sleeping on it, I gave it an 8.

The crowd wanted Roman to murder Logan Paul and he wasn't even there. Sami Zayn was over huge. The flow of the show was better than it has been in ages, with many segments building into the next one. People interacted with each other. Drew McIntyre called out Kross without needing his theme tune to play first. The main event was great, and even Ridge Holland was over with that crowd. The Alabama Slam on Top Dolla was a nice example of a simple spot done to audience satisfaction.

Also, blimey, Ricochet is super protected and over upper midcarder on an undefeated streak. How did that happen?

[Jonathan Michaels]

I love the fact that Sami actually does have some respect from the Bloodline.

[Deleted]

Me when the confused reaction to Shotzi coming out to help Raquel turned into a small pop:

[Celgress]

8 out of 10, IMHO.

[Rudy Gobert Weather Machine]

It shouldn't be legal to bump these threads I literally forgot what day it is

[Duke Cameron]

Didn’t watch
