I will give it a 7
All the matches delivered in some way but Shotzi/Ronda was f***ing ugly. There was a little lull period in the middle of the PPV but overall pretty decent show

Going with a 4/10 since of the five matches on the card, I only enjoyed the two WarGames matches. Finn/AJ had some okay moments but by and large felt like something I could've seen on Raw, Ronda/Shotzi lived down to my expectations, and the triple threat was technically fine but I don't care about Seth and actively dislike Theory so it would've taken a miracle to get me invested at all.

Matches were fine outside the Rousey match but it feels like the wrong winners happened in EVERY MATCH. I can at least take the men's WarGames mistake because Sami being loyal yet seeming somewhat conflicted adds a new element but while I am not gonna consider Damage CTRL RUINED FOREVER that team dearly needed the win tonight but nope, LOLBIANCAWINS and LOLBECKYWINS.
I think they just wanted to wrap up the story from Summerslam. Sure it had CTRL getting their butts kicked by Bianca and Becky at every turn when it counted, but that was the story. I do think Kota put in a very good performance, though.

WarGames matches were both excellent. Triple Threat was excellent. Finn/Styles was solid but didn't pop. Ronda/Shotzi was awful of course but the show was good enough otherwise to survive that lol.

Going for 7. Both War games matches and The US Title match were great. Wasn’t really into AJ v Balor or the Women’s Title match.
The main event alone was close to a 10 I thought.

This was tough to rate. The two war games matches were fun, as was the triple threat but I couldn't get into AJ/Finn and Ronda/Shotzi was a mess. Overall I'm glad I watched it though so gave it a 7

9/10 very good show. The opening women's wargames was fun. AJ vs Finn was a very solid match. Rhonda vs shotzi was God awful. The triple threat was very good and I am starting to come around on Theory. The men's wargames match was the match of the night and I dig the story they are telling with Sami.

Went with 7.
The Women's Wargames match was fine. I know it's unpopular but give me THIS version of Nikkeh Cross any day of the week. Beyond tired of SuperBianca though. I know it was Becky's first match back, but still. You would think Damage CTRL are being punished with the way they've been booked. A team with Becky and freaking Iyo (who was your workhorse for so long) being treated like this is baffling. Outside of Drew losing on his home turf, this is the second worst HHH booking blunder I've seen (how he's handling them). I don't get it. And now with Becky back, ugh.
Thoroughly enjoyed AJ vs Finn. Both men are fantastic wrestlers, and sure it didn't kick into a next gear, but it was a fine wrestling match. I don't like the Good Brothers, and have lost all respect for Karl Anderson, but AJ winning was fine. And I liked the match well enough.
Ronda vs. Shotzi. Ronda needs someone competent, or athletic to have a good match again. Shotzi is neither of those things. I get her thing is that she's a daredevil, and it works for her, but she just isn't good at the athletic side of wrestling at all. Her hops might be worse than Becky's. Worst match on the show easily, but I was honestly expecting worse.
Triple threat was well booked, and all three men worked well together. I don't like Theory, but I get him winning here. Entertaining match, but there was a lot of mileage left with Seth as champion.
The Men's Wargames match was FANTASTIC storytelling. I'm sick of Roman winning everything as much as anyone else, but goddam was this laid out really well. Easily the best storyline in WWE at the moment. I'm just sick of the Usos and Roman having both sets of titles. It's stagnating everything else. But that last 5 minutes were masterful, and saved me from being pissed about the decision. It worked.
Nothing mindblowing, but a solid show.
