I think people are being way too hard on this event. With 17 PPVs a year, the WWE has to do something to keep people hooked, and that sometimes means starting THREADS people! Threads!

* Rusev and Big Cass are both the future, and possibly a future WrestleMania main event. It makes no sense to have Rusev beat Cass or vice versa. By using the countout you protect your equity in both men. Genius.

* The New Day have been champions for ages and beating them actually means something. Cesaro & Sheamus as your new RAW Tag Champs proves that they are worthy team and a team for the ages, instead of being just two guys pushed together in a tag team. Very European Champs, baby! Genius.

* Sami Zayn proved that he can hang with the big men. It's a good thing too, because I was starting to lose faith in him. The WWE have told a brilliant story of Sami choking at crucial moments, and just as we're about to give up, he proves he can hang with THE UNDEFEATED Braun Strowman. Now I want to see them fight again and again to see if Zayn can actually win. I doubt they will fight at the Rumble, but I expect them to interact. A lot of people are saying it will be Reigns vs. Strowman at WrestleMania, but I wouldn't be opposed to these two men facing off in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal to prove what gladiators they are. Genius.

* Seth Rollins needed to beat Chris Jericho, who has been so well protected, beating AJ Styles and Sami Zayn in crucial PPV matches this year. Rollins will continue to call out Triple H, who is a few grades above Jericho (no offence to Jericho), so he needed to win this to look like he belongs in the main event with The Game. Given how many able talent they have on the roster, a Fatal 4-Way for the Universal Title at the Royal Rumble would not be out of the question and could possibly be an early Match of the Year candidate. Triple H will cost Rollins there and help his boy win. But who is his boy? Genius.

* The cruiserweights are still struggling, but that is just because they aren't as special as they were in the 90's. But people are easy to manipulate, so I'm sure the fans will eventually care. A lot of people don't see the logic in having a small guy division when your main event is filled with smaller guys, but what people don't get is that it makes them look BIGGER and that helps the real stars of the show. I think they could have switched the title here to keep things interesting though. Maybe back to TJ Perkins, since he's going to be a future star and people will accept him if he keeps winning championships. But they now have Heel Neville which is great and it will allow Neville to get good at acting, which he sorely needs if he is going to be a future WWE UK Champion. Genius.

* I'm a bit iffy on the Women's Title match, just because I think they should have swapped the belt again to keep things interesting, but I suppose they need to keep Charlotte's one-on-one PPV streak alive. I felt the story was good though, and I just wish these two could have more rematches, because I think they could change the world with the stuff they are doing. But if Sasha can't get any more rematches, I hope they get Sasha on SmackDown for a match against Alexa Bliss, Becky Lynch, Nikki Bella, Natalya, Naomi, Carmella and Eva Marie for WrestleMania. The more hot girls the better. Genius.

* Such a clever ending to the show. Now fans are biting to see Reigns get the Universal Title. With Rollins in there, there will be drama as to who gets the shot. I'm actually wondering if instead of doing Triple H vs. Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns vs. Braun Strowman and Kevin Owens vs. Chris Jericho, if they do The Shield vs. Triple H, Kevin Owens & Chris Jericho at WrestleMania. Now THAT would be a special attraction. I don't even think they need to do a Universal Title match at WrestleMania this year. Give the WWE Title match room to breathe and have the Uni Title locked around Owens waist for even longer. Given that he's the champion, you can probably have him take the pin at Mania in order to set up his post-WrestleMania challenger. Genius.

So as far as WrestleMania is going (at least from what we can gather from this show, I hope it looks something like this:

* Triple H, Universal Champion Kevin Owens & Chris Jericho vs. The Shield

* An Undertaker classic

* Alexa Bliss vs. Sasha Banks vs. Becky Lynch vs. Nikki Bella vs. Carmella vs. Natalya vs. Naomi vs. Eva Marie for the SmackDown Women's Title

* Braun Strowman vs. Sami Zayn

Starting to look like a real Supershow.
