I'd give tonight's show a C-. Very lackluster overall.

That fall from the prison through that table was BRUTAL.

KO was good on Talking Smack. Renee was also good.

Hey, New Day vs. Jinder and Singhs is that much closer to happening.

Remember back in the day tag teams would get involves in singles' title programs? Or at least have a storyline for a week or two that involved a good match with a dusty finish for the heel, which triggered a clusterfuck after the bell with the babyfaces going over.

The WWE delivers another amazing PPV. I mean, maybe not amazing in the same way that the smarks want, but the business model has changed, people:
* The New Day vs. The Usos I do have to complain about first. The match just went too long and tried to outshine the other stuff on the show. If they were the main event, this would have been fine, but they got too show-offy. * Baron Corbin vs. Shinsuke Nakamura was a brilliant stroke of booking. See, they've put this gold star next to Corbin's name, so he can put talent over constantly while holding the briefcase. The DQ ending makes you want to see another match between these two. It wouldn't surprise me if something was on the line for that one... * Natalya is a great wrestler, so it is good to see her get her due. Naomi is a good babyface and Nattie is the best heel she's got. Your move to try and keep up with them, RAW. * Kevin Owens winning the US Title back keeps this back and forth with the championship going, which is for the best. You've got a nice long classic heel reign in the main event, so the other belts moving around keeps things exciting on the undercard. It wouldn't surprise me if we see another title change very soon. * John Cena as the American hero vanquishing the evil foreign threat is classic storytelling. Rusev can now move into a story against Shane while Cena potentially moves into US Title contention. * It's great to see the new talent from Japan doing the time-honored tradition of losing their first huge match. Sami Zayn definitely needed the win. * Mahal is such a great WWE Champion. I know a few people complained that they couldn't see the match, but that's great heat. Bringing back Khali and the Punjabi Prison is retro too. Some people will bitch about how Khali and the Prison were hoohah the first time, but they happened so long ago that they are basically classic nows. I just hope Ricardo Rodriguez becomes Jinder Mahal's personal ring announcer. |

This "Orton screwed by Jinder" thing is getting old.
After it was reported Khali arrived in Philly it was way too obvious what's gonna happen. Guess the internet is to blame for that, but even if it wasn't for that, you just knew Jinder would cheat his way too win yet again. |

I think Noid's post may have been a bit sarcastic. Not sure.

Really hope the finish to the main pulls Orton from Jinder. He's got good heat but Orton bores me to tears.

Randy Orton needs to start acting real wild and crazy. Then he can be rebranded as Randy Savage, oh wait.

WWE's only hope of garnering any significant interest amongst non-smarks is to re-unite The Shield and push them hard as fuck.

I did end up watching the Destruction of the Shield collection on the Network after I watched Battleground last night for some reason.

Hmmm the object of the flag match was to take the flag from a very visible front and center spot and put it in a vertical stand in a less visible spot.

I thought the ppv was really, really good. 4.5/7. It wasnt perfect bc Khali of Greatness didn't do a Swanton bomb off the Punjabi Prison

Kinda wish we could switch title storylines, AJ vs Mahal and (Assuming soon) Cena vs KO. Face of America Owens can go line for line with Cena, and honestly I think AJ/Mahal would be a better match going 15-20.
