I really thought Strowman was gonna win to build Strowman vs Brock. They still got him over big, Brock didnt suplex him once.

Good main event, rest of the show was pretty flat.

hope Joe doesn't get lost in the shuffle

WWE has long-term plans for Strowman and Reigns but gotta make sure Joe has something to do at Mania.

I thought the finish made sense if this ends up leading to a Brock & Braun match in the future. Like the match with Joe at GBOF, it once again told the story of Lesnar barely getting out of this "war zone" of a match. Fukk it, this shyt was entertaining beginning to end. Felt like a classic old school match. Can't always please everyone. :yeshrug:

The show was alright to good overall :manny:

The good was really good and the bad was ehh bad. There you go!

2 of the 3 pre show matches were good with one of them being a MOTN candidate.

The matches on the show as follows -

THE BURIAL :blessed:

Match itself was ehh but who cares.

Nattie and Naomi was good. Don't care for Nattie winning but the match was good.

Cass and Show - :stopitslime:

Orton and Rusev - :stopitslime:

Banks and Bliss - :manny:

Balor and Wyatt was actually pretty good in my book.

Raw tag match was fantastic. Loved it!

AJ and KO was another great match. Those 2 and Shane brought it.

Maharajah and Swagsuke was okay. Glad Mahal retained.

Fatal 4 Way was :fire: albeit the ending.

For those who hate Brock not being around and the belt not being defended all the time, can you please explain to me when the product was miraculously better when the Universal champion was on TV all the time.. raw still sucked when KO was on TV with it all the time ....at least now it feels like an "event" when Brock is there....i don't get this obsession with having the title being on tv every week...it makes it less special
