Lesnar needs to drop the title to Braun.

That should’ve been the Main Event. That little segment was cute, but they wasted Braun this year when he was Red Hot. Top face in RAW Hot

After it's all said and done. My favorite performer tonight was...


Rousey.

She was far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far better than I ever expected. Her style, facial expressions, timing, in ring charisma, and overall ring ability were all exceptionally better than my expectations. She is terribly wooden on the Mic, but if she does that every match, it won't matter.

WWE just needs to stop the 7 hour Manias.

I say do what NJPW does and make it two nights. Do cities like SF/Oakland, DC/Baltimore or LA/SD that are right by each other.

Yeah Rousey is the MVP tonight. No doubt. Do they do Nia next or Asuka?

Yes, when the match is hot garbage like that, and both participants are not well liked. There were maybe 5 moves in that entire match.

I realized what a different class of athlete Rousey was the second she walked in.

The speed, the strength, holy shite.

Let's not forget that the New Orleans buttfricker club accompanied Finn Balor for his entrance to kick off the show.

Both are top 5 highest paid dudes in the company I believe. Brock’s #1 and performs like 3 nights a year

Think my favorite match was Charlotte/Asuka, just on a 1 on 1 basis, they told a great story imo.

Only base pay I believe. If I am not mistaken, Cena is still #1 overall because of merch sales.

Just getting out. Man that main event sucked balls. That main event felt like the WM31 main event except without Seth Rollins. So fricking trash.

That’s more of an absurdity. Cena at some point put in work to get his name at the level to make that money. Pretty wild that those guys are tops in salary, making 10-50 times more than the dudes that are putting in 300 days worth of events.

Overall, I thought there were good moments but I wasn’t engaged really except for the Rousey match. My wife hates wrestling but after 2 minutes she goes “I hate Stephanie. I hope she breaks her arm.” That’s how I know it’s good if my wife actually likes something.

I still think it’s bottom 5 mania. I didn’t see the preshow but there were no surprises, no old wrestlers coming back (I actually like this in small small doses) but more importantly, not many storylines to carry over into next year. I guess Nak turning heel but they had to do something with him. Despite charisma, he is getting lost in the mix.

I mean, Roman is not a part timer. He puts in a ton of dates. It was literally part of his short feud with Brock.

People buy tickets to see a Cena or an Undertaker. They don’t buy tickets to see a Curt Hawkins or Fandango, both who are iron men of house shows.

Still think Nak v. Styles should’ve ended the show. That Heel turn would’ve been the perfect ending sending your viewers to SD Live for the explaination/payoff
