Now that Jeff Jarrett is around, they're going to take a cue from TNA and have the entire night be Money in the Bank ladder matches.
One for US Title, one for IC Title, one for Universal, one for WWE Championship, one for SD Tag, one for Raw Tag, one for Raw Women's, and one for SD Women's.

I will say that I love having the co-branded ppvs so that they don't have to fill up a show with potential "feud ending" or random ass shit matches thrown together just to fill the time. Can kind of pick and choose certain matches to have from both shows and not run every angle into the ground after 1 month.
Like, there are alot of dudes not on tonight's show who otherwise would be shoehorned into some crap match. Finn Balor vs Baron Carbin, Usos vs Bludgeon Bros, Sasha vs Mandy Rose would be the type of shit matches we'd be getting if this was one brand or the other.

Reigns would be way better off if WWE simply got rid of their fetish to book him as a Cena v2.
That Cena style booking got stale after a couple months and yet they still did it for well over a decade with Cena and Reigns.
Don't people have to generally want you to win in order for you to let them down?

Also, lol @ No DQ match ending with a double countout.
It's heavily rumored Brock will defend the belt at MITB and then disappear until the Royal Rumble so he can go train for UFC and have a UFC fight...
If that happens I really hope they don't do Roman/Brock again...just go with Seth or Braun vs Brock and for the love of everything just let Brock drop the title
Could 100% see WWE having Brock retain at MITB and then disappear as champion the rest of 2018 w/o any explanation.

If anything is wrong with Alexis Bliss's new titties, Nia Jax needs to be fired.
rewatching the Bliss/Jax match to make sure Alexa's boobies are ok. At one point Jax has her on her shoulders in a samoa drop position. She walks her to the corner and you can here Nia say " Choke me.... GO TO TO THE CHOKE! " lol Then Alexa puts her in a choke hold.

Seems like a re-hashing of Christian's "One More Match" scenario, except way more drawn out.
What I mean is, if Christian were the babyface at the time, it would have gotten way better reactions. But he was the clear heel. And he kept getting screwed over and backdooring his way into yet another title shot. But he was the heel, so who cares?? If he were the good guy, that would have been a rallying point, but being the villain just reeked of "go away" heat.
Roman's the same. They have had the perfect heel for the last two years or so, yet they insist on spinning it like he is the sympathetic character here and it's EVERYONE ELSE - the company, the fans, Brock Lesnar, Samoa Joe - who is the asshole.

this is going to seem like the dumbest thing to bitch about, but go back and watch the end of the Carmella/Charlotte match. Charlotte came off the rope with the flip and hurt her knee and Carmella kicked her or something and rolled her up for the pin. that's all fine.
But as Carmella is pinning her, Charlotte is literally stiff as a board not even trying in the least bit to kick out. She kicked your leg, she didn't knock you out. If you're fighting for your Title, wouldn't you make an effort to at least kick out. and the story would be she couldn't kick out fully because of her knee. Sympathy for Charlotte.
Shit like that kills me.

• It was kinda weird how many times Michael Cole kept commenting on how "Hot" Seth Rollins was.
I know he was using the word as a way to show how popular Rollins is but still, hearing Micheal Cole constantly tell us how hot he thinks Seth Rollins is, just came across as pretty gay after the second time he said it.
He must of said it about five or six times.
It was a good match though. Now that The Intercontinental Championship is out of the picture for The Miz, I now really hope he works his way towards the WWE Championship.
• They still announce Nia Jax's weight. Why?
This match was also pretty good but I was a bit surprised how dominating Bliss looked during it.
She was pretty much in control of the entire match and Jax came across as kinda weak. Bliss came across as a veteran compared to Jax. The ending was kinda lame though.
Jax's promo after the match was obviously just a PR move, but I think Cole chose the wrong words after the promo.
Jax: A bully always gets their ass kicked!
Cole: Nia Jax echoing the sentiments of the WWE's B A Star Campaign!
• The Elias thing was was an up and down affair for me.
Elias was alright, I still haven't really "warmed" to him but The New Day showing up was just "ugh", but then it got good with English & Rusev. It then got "ugh" (or "super ugh") again with No Way Jose showing up with Titus Worldwide, but seeing Breezango dancing at the end of the conga line actually made me laugh out loud.
Breezango are great comedy. Fandango more so.
• Hardy/Orton was a good match and I think this may be the beginning of Orton's heel turn (if the rumours of an Orton heel turn are to be believed).
I was actually expecting an RKO "outta nowhere" after the match.
• Styles/Nakamura was probably match of the night for me, but it just kinda sucks that it ended the way it did.
A No DQ Match ending in a no contest is just not right. I was wondering why this match wasn't the main event but I can kinda see why, as ending the PPV in that way wouldn't have been good.
But neither would have ending it with Reigns winning a singles match with nothing on the line, which happened, so the WWE aren't really doing themselves any favours, as either way they're going to get boos and unhappy fans in the arena.

Fans need to throw garbage at Roman Reigns whenever he does a promo in the ring.

I really hope Lesnar/Reigns is the main event at Money in the Bank.

I hope theres a gif of Vince counting their $ he made from them tonight.
Dont get me wrong, the number of people leaving was very normal but if they were leaving due to displeasure (doubt it for the most part; traffic beaters most likely) he would be losing money in the long run.

If the main event was good, people would want to stay regardless of traffic.

They did. Traffic beaters exist at every show. The arena didnt empty.

I really hope Lesnar/Reigns is the main event at Money in the Bank.
I THINK they will throw in a 3rd guy and make it a 3 way. i can't see them letting it ride as Roman/Brock in Chicago.
I hope they do though. that would actually be entertianing just for the crowd

Would be funny if they did Braun vs Brock and Braun won the belt and Roman won MITB earlier in the night and then cashed in on Braun and won the belt
Wouldn't take much to injure her considering she's built like the edge of a bus ticket.
YOU SHUT YOUR WHORE MOUTH!
Lol damn right man she's a fat bitch who deserves to be insulted for it :y::y: cheers
Glad we agree.

You know who absolutely loves this Jim cornette
I'm pretty sure that was philosophically the opposite of what Cornette would advocate for in wrestling.

What a brilliant show!
* I was a bit disappointed by Seth Rollins vs. The Miz. Still, two former WrestleMania main eventers and WWE Champions going at it in your opening bout. The IC Title might not have meant as much since the days of JBL as champion.
* It's great little girls have a role-model they can look up to in Nia Jax. My niece is incredibly ugly, so it's nice that she's got bigger women on TV representing her and dumb face. It's a shame that Alexa Bliss got injured though, because she is such an amazing performer and I could have really used more matches out of these two.
* Jeff Hardy and Randy Orton are two old pros that have such great chemistry. Is it 2008 again? Holy cow. This was a main event a decade ago, and it's cool to see two legends of sports entertainment go at it. I don't think the US Title has meant this much since the days of JBL as champion.
* The New Day segment was pure gold. Not everything can be a match, or else children will fall asleep because they are big nights, and that's your target demographic falling down stairs at WWE shows, which is a lawsuit and bad headlines waiting to happen. I don't know how New Day do it, but their comedy never gets old. No Way Jose is already on PPV after just debuting with the company -- expect big things out of that blue chipper!
* What a big opportunity for Big Cass. It would have been nice to see him get a win in his hometown, but what a surprise giving it to Daniel Bryan. How can anyone be disappointed seeing Bryan lock up with the stars of tomorrow TODAY? Like No Way Jose, expect big things out of Big Cass. No Way Jose vs. Big Cass might be a WrestleMania main event waiting to happen.
* Carmella is a star. The way she commanded the stage out there was awesome. I am glad they are giving her a turn with the SmackDown Women's World Championship. Charlotte losing does nothing to hurt her. Why not have her lose and continue to put over the rest of the division? They all deserve it.
* Two World Title matches in a row! Holy cow, did I think this was going to be the end of this epic rivalry, but egad, it keeps going on! What drama! Honestly, you never know what is just around the corner in WWE. I cannot wait to see these two have more matches, and I personally do not care if we never get a finish.
* People watch WWE for its unique blend of drama and comedy. Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn getting frustrated with one another and slapping each other is the perfect blend of that. I don't want to tell two pros how to do their job, but maybe it would have been funnier if Sami Zayn pulled up Kevin Owens' shirt and twisted his nipples a little bit? Just a suggestion. Bobby Lashley and Braun Strowman are two young stars on the rise.
* The crowd was very disrespectful during the Samoa Joe vs. Roman Reigns match, and I think they should be ashamed of themselves. I don't think they really know why they boo Roman Reigns, who has had such a good story of success and failure told. A big main event win for the man that I do believe will unseat Brock Lesnar as WWE Raw Universal World Champion.
I came online after the show and I was surprised to find so much negativity. You had heroes winning epic battles, great comedy, drama and four hours of content. Sure, if you were expecting a finish to your matches or wanted Charlotte to win the SmackDown Women's World Championship, I can understand why you might be a little disappointed, but objectively this was a brilliant show that keeps the Roman Reigns experiment chugging along nicely. When he's the WWE Raw Universal World Champion, people will have no choice but to accept him as the biggest star in sports and entertainment.
Good job, Vince. You did it again.
