you can't complain about people complaining if people don't complain in the first placeWhat's worse: the people complaining or the people looking to complain about people who are complaining?

It's fine to complain. But people be complaining because the event didn't go the way they would have booked it on gm mode.What's worse: the people complaining or the people looking to complain about people who are complaining?

some random thoughts:
-this was the first ppv ive gotten to watch live in a long time...wasnt necessarily expecting it to be good but it surprised me! i actually thought a lot of the booking decisions were solid and some of the matches were great.
-the miz tv segment with balor was MUCH needed. miz made balor look like a million bucks and you can also see balors mic work picking up a little. he needs something to build his momentum and i thought this was a great place to start
-i didnt catch much of owens jericho but what i did catch was just headlocks and kind of boring. cant speak on the rest of it or the ending. dont know where theyre going with this one
-cruiserweight match was damn good with a solid finish. aries winning the belt here didnt feel right but he needed a win somehow.
-tag match was fun. i would have preferred the titles changing hands because the hardys without the broken gimmick seem kind of stagnant, but the in ring work was very good and it was a lot of what i look for in a tag match. the turn and beatdown at the end was excellent. i like that cesaro and sheamus got time on the pre and post show
-the womens match was good. i LOVED the ending. i thought the shoot looking ring post spot and the ddt to finish it were great and it didnt weaken bayley at all
-the house of horrors match was terrible but id be lying if i said i wasnt entertained. i laughed the whole way through it and actually liked the jinder interference. it got a fukkery video into the ppv, intertwined the angle for the next title match and got wyatt a win. that's a lot to accomplish in one 'match'
-though the crowd was dead for joe v rollins, i thought the storytelling of speed v strength was well played and both guys looked great. im not happy about the ending..it seemed kind of dumb, but ill let wwe cook on the direction theyre taking joe in
-the last match was just kind of there. glad strowman won and looked strong but it was basically your standard roman reigns match without the underdog victory and confetti flying everywhere. strowman is a beast and one of the best up and coming talents on the roster by a long mile. hes got a real throwback monster feel and im honestly shocked theyve been so good at building him over the last year

Excellence was achieved tonight.
Highlight of the night is definitely the tag team match.
Booker t really knows how to bring passion to these types of matches.
That Cesaro & sheamus heel turn is gonna take the tag team division to the next level
Strowman/reigns fued has been lit. Fued of the year so far.
Only thing that aggravated me was the stipulation for the Jericho/ko match. Whoever wins the title takes the title to smackdown?????View media item 12439Even tho we had some smack
down losers getting some PT, the show was still able to flow well.

They def should've used atleast a little blood in the horrors match, especially since it was filmed beforehand
Could've and should've been used in the kitchen part
