I really enjoyed the show too! Pretty solid altogether. My only compaints would be the pre-show match (Wade should've won) and that the MitB ladder match wasn't really all that memorable. I would probably have held off Cena vs. Owens II for a later date, and put Owens in the MitB match. I would've prefered Owens winning too, because I like the idea of Owens being the one guy Cena can never beat. A bit like Taker and Lesnar, how Taker's never defeated him (as far as I'm aware).

I actually like Sheamus winning the briefcase. He's a good talent and the only other viable option was Roman Reigns, and I think that would just backfire again as Reigns definitely hasn't won over the crowd yet.
Although, Nikki Bella's startin' to piss me off. 😋 I've wanted her to drop that title since WrestleMania but nope! She retains again... her being champion is not doing a lot for that title. Stick it on Paige, or Naomi, or Natalya, or Tamina, or anyone really, just not her!
Thanks Taker_2004 for the banner!
I am genuinly pissed off right now. I'm in the middle of watching mitb an so far have been very disappointed. The ladder match was frankly boring, especially considering Neville and Kingston were in it. And what the hell... Can wwe creative not think up something interesting for the divas? Please retire the bellas and give that title to someone who can bloody sell a freaking move! Not to mention wrestle....
I hope it gets better....

So yeah, it got better. A bit disappointed that Ambrose didn't win, but was pretty convinced of the fact he wouldn't towards the end anyway.
So yeah, poor start, but ended well. And congrats to the PTPs. about time they won it! :-)

Owens v Cena has to be the match of the year... if a match tops that in the next 6 months I'll be surprised, but also happy as it'd have to be a proper 5 star match. I wanted Owens to win, just thought it would be better if Owens was the one guy Cena couldn't beat, but it was such a good match that I don't mind too much.
Rollins v Ambrose was a bit disappointing I thought. I liked the match, but it was a bit too long (can't believe I'm actually complaining about that since I complain that most matches WWE do feel or are too short)... but it was something like 35 odd minutes long. Shave 10 minutes off and it would have been more intense. Worst part to me was the finish. It was unique, so props to them for that as we don't see creative coming up with new ideas often it seems... but come on, book Rollins like a proper champ. He's going against Lesnar next and they couldn't even give him a strong win on Sunday. It's almost like they talk Rollins up, but don't really have that much faith in him as a champion. The finish should have been Rollins on top of the ladder with the belt held high after shoving Ambrose off the top. Is it really so much to ask that they book Rollins like a proper champ?
It's over now i didn't see a thread for it... if there was one can chux or ben just merge this for me?
anyways i thought it was a good show
I don't like Sheamus at all... but really other then Reigns who else made sense to win the briefcase? Orton? Kane? nobody really... but i have a bit of an idea of where this will go if the rumors of Rollins vs Triple H at Summerslam are true.
The divas match was surprisingly good i think... it was pretty slow to start but then took off.... lame finish but i'm pretty sure that was a dusty finish anyways so it was a tribute.
Cena vs Owens was amazing... i think it blew away the first match... yeah Cena won but Owens will get the rubber match win... because if he doesn't wwe is making a huge mistake.
Congrats to the PTP. they are likeable guys and i'm happy they have a few moments in the tag team spotlight.
The main even was pretty brutal... one of the best and most violent one on one ladder matches i've seen in a while possibly since Jericho vs HBK.... i really liked it and i felt that Rollins was winning but quite a few times i really felt unsure entirely... i liked the end where both guys pulled the title done.
Good show.
