Brock/Ambrose should have gotten more time. They were clearly weren't in a rush.

This show felt like a longer version of fastlane except not as good because they main event wasn't as good.

Takeover > Raw tomorrow > Mania
My guess that will be the final verdict when all is said and done. Can't see Ryder being champ past tomorrow night . Really didn't get AJ or Sasha losing decisions but who knows maybe all corrected tomorrow night as well. Shanes bump was sick but rest of match was meh. Ambrose / Brock deserved more time then the Battle Royal. Women had match of night by a mile. |

Reading the live updates, I figured the PPV was pretty good?! I disagree with people being upset over LON's and the Wyatt's. Any time you get air time with a Stone Cold, Foley, HBK, Rocky, Cena, etc., you are getting a gift. I agree with Road Doggy Dogg that the Wyatt's have been in this instance one too many times, but it will be easy to repush them/re-establish credibility if the WWE so chooses it. Why aren't more people happy to see Ryder going over big time?.........or that Kalisto guy getting a solid win over Ryback? Can't please em' all? |

Legitimately conflicted. Serious question: it seems like the only way to really voice dissatisfaction would be to cancel the network, but NXT is great and deserves support, as do a lot of main roster talent. Do we just bend over and take a Reigns-dominated future because other things are good?

Any time you're getting squashed by someone you're not getting over.

Damn so they were on the verge of having a "new regime" control raw (even though it would have just been the same peeps booking the show even if Shane McMahon had won) and the worst guy ever in probably his long term run as WWE World Heavyweight Champion... seems really really bad

I'm glad I finally get to say the Womens title match on the main roster on the biggiest PPV stole this show.
That is the only light here You won't know that tho after Vince's minions edit this show to make Reigns look like fucking Daniel Bryan. |

Mania felt odd overall at least for me. Lots of odd booking decisions but the show itself wasn't terrible nor was it great. Also didn't feel like the extra hour was worth it for the show.
Didn't have that feeling of being a big surprise in goodness from an awful Road to Mania like last year. IC ladder match might have been the best match from start to finish tonight. |

It helped him? Because I remember him completely changing gimmicks soon after. Unless there was an explanation that the beatdown turned him retarded and made him go from a genius to a guy who just impersonates people, I don't think it helped him.

Trying to focus on the positives, the best parts of the night to me were:
IC ladder match was aight. Ryder winning is a cool moment though I thought it was a weird booking decision based on his total last minute addition and all Women's match: was great. Not a fan of Flair being involved in the decision. Let Charlotte be get her own heat, she's capable Corbin winning the battle royale that spear on Steph (and Steph's attire in general, smokeshow) AJ/Jericho was a good match, don't fully agree with Jericho going over but hell he's jobbed to everyone lately so it's good to get him a "big game" win. AJ will recover from it New Day's entrance Austin 'ell yeah Rock's jokes about Wyatt family were funny even if the segment sucked and buried them |

Interested to see where they go for Extreme Rules. What will The Authority do? AJ/Jericho 5, Women's division going forward, Cena returns?, Shane gonna disappear? Ryder with title, KO vs Zayn on the big stage, etc.

Has he really been 'squashed', or do the WWE see a red flag in him which is preventing them from pushing him to the heights that they want?
You can't just push someone because it looks good on paper? In 2004 - none of us could understand why Randy Orton's push was derailed so quickly after his Summerslam victory. In the year's following, he was also held a step below the likes of Cena. No one could figure out why. As it turned out, Orton was a huge dick backstage and was extremely immature. He didn't have the leadership qualities needed to be a leader in the lockerroom. Perhaps in Wyatt's case, perhaps he has a few holes in his wrestling? |

Wyatt has flaws of course, but Reigns has shown nothing that warrants him getting the push he has (hence every single person's problem with the whole affair) |

I get what Heyman is saying and I agree with it in a vacuum - being featured every week is the goal. However, at some point you can't just be a side piece all the time or you won't be featured every week. You need to evolve in some manner.
