I thought this PPV was better than expected. I missed a few matches that may have been duds so that could be skewing my opinion but I enjoyed most of the stuff I saw for either being good matches (main event, Ziggler/Ryder) or comedy gold (HHH/Nash)
- The opener was a great match, Ziggler is on fire right now. Crowd was awesome. As happy as I am that Ryder finally won the title I was actually hoping that they could somehow stretch his hunt all the way to Wrestlemania. I guess it would be too far but it would have been a really nice midcard Mania moment. Seems like those are missing these days. Still awesome though.
- Tag match and Divas match are basically rinse and repeat matches so they were what they were (shitty)
- Barrett vs Orton was decent I think? I missed some of the match but it looked alright. I was hoping Barrett would win but they probably needed to make Orton look strong since he's been jobbing quite a bit lately
- HHH vs Nash was enjoyable because of how hilarious it was. Nash is such a fat ass. I guess most people thought it was boring but it was like a black comedy for me. I'm pretty sure Vince made this match just to remind the IWC that he can and will still troll. Nash took a big bump and it will only go down as the second best of the night
- Show/Henry wasn't anything special but Bryan winning was BITTER SWEET. Awesome moment and Punk/Bryan as the champs? What is going on. Seems to good to be true, maybe this is all leading to HHH squashing both of them at Mania and unifying the titles followed by him and Stephanie renewing their vows ceremony for the main event (Rock/Cena gets Rock/Hogan treatment?)
- Missed some more matches before the main event which was very good. I might be overrating it since I just watched it but it seems like a genuine MOTYC. I really, really like Del Rio in the ring. He may be bland and boring on the mic but he is such a good aggressive heel. I noticed this at HIAC and he's been fantastic in the ring especially tonight. Props to Ricardo for the Golden Bump of the Night (Silver to Nash).
Solid PPV. 7.5/10
