[Chiral]

Raw/SD are just in a funk now, IDK if it's Vince looming but it feels like they've been cruising on holiday mode for months before this so I don't wanna say it's all him.

["Evil Brood" Jackson Vanik]

4 - there was some good wrestling at times but there was a lot of confusing and odd booking choices. I don't especially feel compelled by any of the stories they have building to next week.

[Schizo]

f*** it, 10

I was pretty much enjoying the whole show

[theironyuppie]

I'd say around a 6.5 to 7, generally solid without being outstanding. The Bayley/Becky promo felt a bit off with the meta-stuff being forced and not hitting as it should have.

["Evil Brood" Jackson Vanik]

That might have been the least amount of women's wrestling in the Hunter era so far for one show.

[chronocross]

I caught the first hour or so, then nodded off. I liked Ali getting a nearfall on Solo but he never had a chance.

I wasn't crazy about the Rhea/Solo staredown as I thought it made him look weak backing down from her like that IMO.

I saw clips of the main event and liked the storyline with Lashley/MVP and the U.S title shot next week.

[YAKMAN is ICHIBAN]

I skipped it entirely to watch The Last of Us because I wasn't able to watch it on Sunday.

[msc]

Elias walked into an obvious trap out of 10.

Nah, I liked the main event. It was quite fun.

[Duke Cameron]

Only watched the main event.

[Celgress]

6 out of 10, IMHO.
