The night started strong, kinda lulled there in the middle, and while the Cena/Reigns match was a good match, it kind of ended flat. Seeing Becky Lynch come back, as well as Brock Lesnar, was a nice surprise, I don’t think she should’ve been put in the championship match with Bianca, but, I give it up for Bianca for being a fighting champion (at the time) and adjusting on the fly. She was prepared for Sasha Banks and even Carmella. Just a shame how it all went down.
I wasn’t a fan of how the Goldberg/Lashley match ended. I get that injuries happen, and can at any time, but, still, I would’ve liked to see Lashley get knocked down a peg or two. But, I guess it shows that even though a legend comes back to compete, he doesn’t need to win a championship every time. It was the same thing for the Cena/Reigns match, the only difference is, that that match was a bit more hard-fought. After that match, Lesnar comes out, which made things awkward between him and Heyman. Interesting story that got started. Be wondering how that will turn out. Would love to have seen Reigns lose, but I really don’t want Lesnar to be the one to do it.
Edge bringing back the old Brood theme was amazing. He and Rollins put on a good match. There were times where I thought that Edge was going to lose. I was hoping that Nikki A.S.H. would have retained her championship. But, that was a good match as well. Overall, it was a good night. A long one. Full of suspense and surprises. The next event will be “Extreme Rules”, which will happen on September 26th from Columbus, Ohio. Hope to see you all, then!
