Just a really fun show. Glad I got to catch most of it while at work.

The only reason Dwayne should even be involved is to pass the torch, he has no business beating Roman at all

Rock vs Reigns will happen eventually… hopefully It would have by now if it was going to. Rock is only interested in himself and making bad movies and being a one dimensional actor Give it 2/3 years or 5 lol

Actually don't know how I feel about Roman getting pinned before he losses the title but can't deny how incredible of a moment that was for Main Event Jey. Just seems like Cody's moment getting less and less big as things unravel with the Bloodline but its been great tv the entire time,so I can't be mad I guess. Every time I get a little fatigued with the story,they throw something else like this at the fans,no wonder the ratings are the biggest in the business when this story just keeps evolving like this.

I like iyo and priest holding the cases. They both have stories even if I don’t care for the concept anymore

Loved the show
I think both MitB winners was the right decisions,no doubt Knight is over huge but I think the better next step for him is to be US champ. As long as that happens before the end of the night at SummerSlam,I see this as the right move,just dont waste his momentum. If done right the JD split can make Priest a great new main event face.
For Iyo I thought she was clearly the right choice and I'm glad they went with her,I know its not as big as Knight but Iyo been getting big reactions from the crowd. Let the Asuka/Charlotte/Bianca stuff work out and get Iyo away from Damage Ctrl asap and then we get that classic with Asuka/Iyo in a 20+ minute PLE match.
Still disappointed in Finn not getting the job done but still a fun match.
Also disappointed in Shayna turning on Ronda now,just a week earlier and Alba&Dawn could be the top of the divison. Also do they really think people gonna cheer Ronda?
Gunther/Riddle was good and the Drew stuff was a surprise. Thought next time we seen him he would've been A heel.

Hopefully nobody pins Roman clean again until the Rock does for all the titles at WM40

I think Roman Reigns beats Jay Uso at Summerslam, and then The Rock shows up to close the show. Rock ain’t coming back lol This.
I don't know why people think Rock will come back. He's larger than wrestling now. He might do a guest spot in the ring like Cena did today ... but he will never wrestle again. It's BELOW him now. Massive Hollywood stars don't belittle their career by doing WWE. Second tier stars do that. He owes the WWE nothing. He's done with it.

Hopefully this is the end of the bloodline stuff. It’s beginning to get stale if they don’t end it here Yep. It jumped the shark. We lived the story for what, a year or more? Time to move on. They need to close it properly, but don't go nWo where they force it on you for ages.

Rock was "larger" than wrestling when he returned against Cena almost a decade ago. It's very simple. If Rock wants to come back, then Rock will come back. It is not a matter of if WWE can pay enough. He simply has to be interested. Also, the Rock's movie career has seemed to peak. WB was not satisfied with Black Adam's box office performance and his attitude. I also read that Netflix is unhappy as well.

So we think Ronda is leaving? They seemed to have all these plans and then boom Shayna turns. Shayna vs Ronda at Summerslam and then she is done.

Still the greatest story in pro wrestling history. This is so damn good. I wouldn’t go that far lol I actually would. The commitment and attention to detail is amazing.

Men's MITB was good. Figured Priest or Knight would win and that's who I wanted. Logan and Ricochet nearly dying was VERY scary
Good Women's Tag Title match, but why couldn't Shayna just turn on Ronda during the Unification match. Alba & Isla lost for literally no reason now.
Surprisingly short IC Title match. Gunther chopping Riddle's foot was incredible lol. McIntyre's return was cool, although I hope he doesn't beat Gunther. Gunther should beat Honky Tonk's record and have the longest reign ever.
Cody Vs. Dom was a fun comedy match. Surprised no Brock appearance.
YOOOO JOHN CENA! Wrestlemania in London is so sweet, it'll be a nice change of pace crowd wise. Grayson Waller
Apparently Bayley represents the Judgment Day now lmao. Love Bayley's gear. Trish being in a MITB match is insane. Becky's gear is sweet too, Phoenix/Siryn? inspired. Zelina doing the Andrade spot from 2019 was a good callback. IYO winning was 100% the right move.
World Title match never really got out of 2nd gear I felt. Also, Seth taking 2 Coup de Grace in a row, then immediately getting up to hit a Stomp and win was dumb.
The shot of Kayla's interview with Sami and Kevin was so cool looking.
Natalya getting squashed in every match since Night of Champions and still getting another title shot. Raw Women's division is in the dirt lmao
Announcing the match as "The Bloodline Civil War" makes this sound extra serious, which makes me think this should've been an Extreme Rules match. You could tell Jimmy was trying hard not to smile once the bell rang. It must be really cool to team with your brother against your other brother and your cousin. Roman hit the Apron dropkick here and I feel like he hasn't done that in forever. The Samoan Spike/Spear combo was SICK! And the double kickoff afterwards was awesome as well! The lowblow kickout! JEY PINNED ROMAN!!! What an incredible match, the storytelling here was immaculate.
Rumors going around that Jey will face Roman at Summerslam and this makes me actually hype to see that now. I can't wait to go to Summerslam next month.

I thought the show was fun. That crowd was awesome.
The IC title match was a bit too short and the main event was a total bore. I think Roman being pinned before he loses the title was a bad idea, but it is what it is.

Enjoyed this event.
Priest was the right choice but they gotta do something with Knight...& quickly. He's over huge.
It was obvious to me that someone disposable was gonna win the Women's mitb to be fed to Rhea. I knew Becky wouldn't win...they're saving that.
I was slightly disappointed in Gunther vs Riddle. I thought it would have been longer & Riddle would have pushed him harder. I enjoyed it though & Riddle being more serious suited him.
Bayzler on Rhonda was weird to me.
Liked the Priest wrinkle in the Seth/Balor match. Good match but nobody thought Balor was going to win.
Enjoyed Bloodline match but the end felt strangely flat. Especially with that crowd.
Enjoyable enough PPV that should stir interest in TV
