I don’t think IO needs it the most even though the story of the feud is that she is an afterthought.

Defeating Rhea clean for the title in the middle of build is a big win in itself.

Bianca getting her moment with the potential heel turn will hit harder.
I hope they go with the Bianca win/heel turn angle, but I can seem them having her beat Bianca clean too, just to crush the "Iyo as an afterthought" perception. She'll have clean wins over both of them. That would cement her spot at the top. I think that would end up hurting Bianca the most though, given the way she's been booked, and how she's being positioned in this particular feud, and the fan reaction. I can't help but to feel she is only there to put over Iyo. I hope I'm wrong.

Missed/skipped the tag match so excluding that I actually liked all the matches. Just my thoughts.

Jey/Gunther - I liked Gunther tapping out quickly, it made for a bigger surprise than drawing out the submission. I wish Jey went a little quicker with all those finishers to get the crowd hype, him going slow between the powerbomb/spear/two splashes, I dont think crowd was anticipating the sudden sleeper

Really like Jade/Naomi, moreso Naomi. She was killing it and you can see the experience difference. Hopefully she'll get to bring Jade up because she still looks green to me, with some of the sloppiness. Good match though.

LA Knight/Jacob was my favourite mainly because Jacob won :pachaha: Crowd was rocking with him.

Tiffany/Charlotte I expected a complete clusterfukk but they did their thing. Even though it was messy at times with the missed spots, because they were going so hard it almost fit the theme of the match. This one actually surprised me.

El Grande Americano intro was :ohlawd: - loved this match with Rey

Triple Threat - MOTN, clearly. For whatever beef Punk/Seth have they sell their ass for each other like Shawn/Bret did. Add Roman in an this was an all timer triple threat. Did catch Roman check on both Seth and Punk each, after he flew into them into the crowd. Was hoping that Seth/Heyman ending would happen, even if predictable, but it was great :pachaha: I am curious if it will carry over into tonight.

I was entertained for sure. Not sure I'll double back on New Day/War Raiders after seeing the feedback in here. Sounded like a Raw match lol.

Bianca getting her moment with the potential heel turn will hit harder.

It feels like they're recreating Cena/Triple H/Orton from 2008, with the champion going in as the underdog that nobody thinks can win and they pull off the upset. Rhea/Bianca was clearly the match they wanted to do, but they got cold feet and wanted Iyo to be in the title match, so they went with a triple threat.

If Iyo pins Rhea one more time, it justifies her winning the title and it humbles Rhea. She can't blame Bianca this time because she lost clean in front of 60,000 people and now, she has to reevaluate what she did wrong. It also protects Bianca since she still has the streak and it gives her a reason to get a rematch one-on-one.

But I wouldn't have a problem with Bianca winning, especially since it's going to piss the crowd off and expose their racism.
