Just finished the reaction show and I just thought about something... Brock was clearly dominant in the bulk of the match but Reigns gained little victories because every time he was able to make contact with Brock, he made him bleed. First thirty seconds, he busts him by his yee, then the knee to the face and his mouth is bleeding and then after getting destroyed, ramming his head into the ringpost. A little touch that made this feel like a classic.

You wouldn't have got that from Roman Reigns capitalizing on his lucky break with the ring post dazing and bloodying Lesnar, throwing every finisher he has at him and finally slaying the beast against all odds? That is about as definitive a culmination as you will get. Yes, I would have. That was my point. I would've been perfectly happy with that. We're arguing on the same side. This is the funniest thing I have read tonight.

It was the right booking.

I am right about a lot of things!!!! Like predicting most of tonight's matches!!!!

Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Riegns - The first minute was sick… great fight with Brock bloody…. German… .F5 - Oh shit… SUPLEX CITY BITCH!!!!! - Oh fuck… that clothesline!!!! - Brock is bleeding from the mouth from the kicks to the mouth - Man, that kickout of the 2nd F5 leading to Brock being busted open to Brock staggering after every Superman punch was EPIC! - The fucking blood!@!!!! - The fucking MONEY IN THE BANK CASH IN WAS GREAT AND BOOKED PERFECTLY!!!!!!!

SUPLEX CITY BITCH!!!!!

Probably smart not to make this match too long.

I am dumb. Roman's music came on and the crowd starts booing and I'm thinking "Damn, they are booing Brock". I got the theme music confused.

Taker vs. Bray Wyatt - I laughed when he was called the greatest striker of all time as his punch looked soft as toilet paper - Man, Taker looks old here more so than at any other time - I thought it was over after the first Tombstone because I thought they were just going to give Taker his win and save time - I marked out for the Spider and Sit-up… until Lawler called it a Wrestlemania moment - Oh well, another old man wins tonight. Yay for old men!!!! - If last year’s theme was New Blood, this year’s theme is Grumpy Old Men

I guess they axed a super Taker entrance. It looks pretty normal.

NO chance

The Ronda stuff was epic. It went too long but it felt special and the slap setup her entrance perfectly. I also think they are going long because this Bray-Taker match is going to last 5 minutes since Bray was injured earlier today.

Except, they kinda did. Accolade, broken out of. STFU, broken out of. I was underwhelmed by this match (I don't mean who won - I'm okay with that). Last month was better. Completely different. Both were set up when neither guy was worn down enough to pass our tap out. I have no problem with people breaking out of submissions all day long.

Come on people... we complain about self conscious epics in wrestling and when they choose not to do finisher kickout finisher kickout finisher kickout reversal finisher, we complain about it?

John Cena vs. Rusev - Lana…. Cannons… A TANK???? He would have done Stalin proud - Fighting the Cold War a second time…. I already loved through it once!!!! - Great touch with Rusev requesting to be announced first - Great spot… Missed stomp into a back kick to Cena’s face - Both guys pulling out new spots. - Another awesome match and if you didn’t like this match, you and I have nothing to talk about when it comes to wrestling.

Cena's rebuttal is a great video package... Fighting the Cold War a second time…. I already lived through it once!!!!

FUCK YES@!!!! LANA!!!!

- First section, AJ knocked senseless on the ground. No tag partner. Played up as missing partner in action. - AJ gets in, no damage, just moves. - No drama or teases leading to the finish. - No more interaction between Paige & AJ at all teasing what the announcers were playing up

AJ & Paige vs. Bella Twins - There were some nasty bumps but this was so disjointed. About what I expected.

I hope they give the divas 20 minutes only so there is no curve for Dylan to rate the match

Sting vs. HHH - OK, this crowd loves them some Sting early on - Poor Sting’s hairline - Man, that hot opening sure died down once HHH took over with his lame offense. - Wrestling wise, a complete shit show. - The entire DX vs. NWO thing is 15 years too late but this would have been hot in 1998. - The first thumbs down thing for me on the show but this wasn’t put on for me. Unless they had a bloodbath or a brawl, I wasn’t going to like it anyway

OKO, I marked out for Conan the Terminator

Wow.... going with HHH-Sting now. I guess they don't want the crowd too deflated with the Sting loss

Randy Orton vs. Seth Rollins - I missed the early portion of the match. The 2nd half was pretty hot with the big finisher kickouts, J&J getting the RKO’s and Seth getting huge air on the curb stomp into the RKO. I have no complaints. It wasn’t a classic but a good match that kept me entertained. However, it doesn’t feel like a Seth cash-in but more like HHH-Sheamus.

It just isn't for you Parv.
