[The Rick Jericho]

Jimmy sums up how we all feel.

5/10.

[Gus Richlen: Ruffian]

3 and that's largely for the main event. Rest of the show was dire and boring and Cody's response to Roman made him sound like a wuss.

["Evil Brood" Jackson Vanik]

4 - some decent wrestling and a solid opening promo but also some bad stuff mixed in with highly questionable booking.

[Chiral]

I'm not treading any new water here or saying anything surprising but this show is just "the bad guys win over and over and over." It feels so pointless to have Sami lose so easily to Solo, and that was just one heel victory among like 15 tonight.

[Schizo]

8, really enjoyable show overall, the Cody/Roman promo was amazing imo

[Deleted]

6/10. Show fell off pretty bad after the first hour

[BRV]

It very much felt like a “moving the chess pieces on the board but not advancing any” kind of night. Are we any further along in any of the feuds than we were about two hours ago? Rey Mysterio is still conflicted about fighting back against Dominik, The Bloodline is still in disarray, Jey Uso is still unsure of where he stands within the family.

They’re four weeks out from WrestleMania. It’s time to start advancing these feuds.

[chronocross]

6/10, liked the opening segment with Cody/Roman but that’s it.

[XIII]

5/10. 2 of those are for given up on life Kross and his Vice City side quest.

Kross is slowly becoming the best part of the show.

Shit, I just said that.

[asuka007]

9/10:

The Roman/Cody segment was awesome. Roman going full dickhead heel. And clearly being shaken by Cody just shrugging it off. And clearly being rattled for the rest of the show as well. If the idea us that Roman’s usual mind games won’t work on Cody, I’d be all for that.

Rhea vs. Liv was a fun match. Rhea is awesome and Liv is legit good now. But Liv’s booking is very frustrating. Runner up in the RR (and only lost because she was blinded by mist), but is then booked to lose almost ever TV match after that. Refuses to tap in the EC to two submission holds, but is booked to tap to three straight TV matches when it wasn’t needed. A little consistency please. Also it would suck if they have nothing for her at Mania as well.

Dom is such a great little douche heel. And Santos’s face turn has been cool to see.

The Fatal Five Way should be awesome.

Sami vs. Solo was fun.

Good show overall.

[welshpenguin]

9 from me! Great show. Time flew by. Awesome opening promo from both guys, especially Roman, dude is on another level right now. Happy we got to see lots of Roman & Heyman throughout the show.
Fun surprise appearance from LA Knight during the little fall out between Sheamus & Drew.
Rhea winning as she should & Cole hating on Dom like he should!
Sami giving a speech amongst the people was fun & enjoyed his match with Solo. Didn’t mind who won.
The unintentional hilarious promo from Bobby Lashley was also a highlight. Never change Big Bob 😀

[theironyuppie]

I'd say around 8.5, the first hour in particular was really good. Roman/Cody segment was tops, and the rest of the hour was a strong Rhea showcase, which felt like a test for how she'll be leading the SD women's division given that Charlotte (curiously) wasn't used. (She had a dark match with Sonya). Sami losing the match then getting his heat back was also a contentious call, but shows you how strongly they're protecting Solo.
