[tagteammatchplaya]

They may have lost, but we saw Madcap Moss and Von Wagner in the same ring, gotta start that build early, because that's gonna main event Wrestlemania 40, 6/10, 4 points lost because they lost

["Evil Brood" Jackson Vanik]

3 - it was very dull and nothing in the ring really clicked well for me. I don't think these brand split RAWs are going to be great until they strap the rocket to some of their lower card talent.

Also I am so over Bloodline heel shit and it's still on both shows.

[asuka007]

I’ll go with an 8.5/10:

The opening segment was fun.

Rhea is awesome.

We got some decent character intros and/or story profession.

Zoey vs. Candice could be fun potentially.

The Imperium through line throughout the show was well done.

Etc.


Honestly the only major downside I can think of is that I don’t think the Ronda/Shayna beat down worked at all. The whole thing looked bad.

[A Little Doo Doo]

6, it was alright enough.

[polarbearpete]

9, I thought there were a few really good matches throughout (the main, Nakamura-Miz, the battle royal, and Dom-Woods), two great promos with Becky and Cody, storyline progression and new storylines started, some returns, etc. Great pacing to the show too.

[Celgress]

6 out of 10, IMHO.
