I really liked that tag match, New Day didn't annoy me for the first time somehow, I did have it on mute, maybe that had to do with it. I bet you could listen to old commentary from the 80s and 90s with the show on mute and it would be a much more enjoyable experience. Doesn't matter it doesn't match, I'd much rather hear "I'm Jim Ross alongside Jerry 'The King' Lawler" over images of Lawler and Cole. Designate different old wrestlers to current ones, like Bossman comments for Roman Reigns. Roman comes down the stairs and you hear "OOOH the Bossman is looking large GO-Rilla." I'm on top of things, head on straight.

Luke Harper Vs. Dean Ambrose
Why ?! Just WHY ?!
They had the potential to give us a "Show Stealer" and gave us THIS ?! Seriously?!
I did not care about the result i just wanted to see a EXTREME Match at EXTREME Rules... But instead of the Lee/Moxley Match i wanted we got a over 50 Minute long parody of what they did in the Indys...
New Day Vs. Cesaro & Kidd
Again... WHY ?!
Sheamus Vs. Ziggler
And one again... WHY ?! Who in the blue hell though that it would even be a PPV worthy Match Stipulation?
Naomi Vs. Nikki Bella
It was okay but not as good as it should and could have been!
Rusev Vs. Cena
I just watched the ending because i don't care about Mr. Obviously winning a Title Match.
Roman Reigns Vs. Big Show
Another Match i did not watch because it also was obviously as hell that Reigns was going to win it !
Seth Rollins Vs. Randy Orton
I'm glad Rollins won but that Match IMO just was crappy... It had a few decent Spots but J&J & Kane interfering and them not letting Rollins using the God's Last Gift, Phoenix Splash, Paroxysm etc etc was just completely stupid ! I know he is a heel and is supposed to be a **** but on Title Matches they should let him show what he is capable of.
I just was disappointed with this Show! IMO the build up was crappy and the Show as well.

I'm probably going to get some flack for this but Roman/Show was MOTN. There i said it. The match i had absolutely zero interest in turned out to be pretty damn good. The fact that the crowd was pretty into the match with a smark crowd like Chicago speaks volumes about it. I was expecting them to crapall over it.
Matches that i had high expectations for but flopped: Ambrose/Harper. They couldve done something very cool with this, Perhaps have them randomly pop up on Raw still going at it or atleast have a camera crew on them while they left the building. Have them end up in a grocery store or something. Would have been great. Instead they go back to the ring and end the match 2 mins later.
Seth/Orton. I dont know why, This match just didnt click, Cant put my finger on why but it just fell flat for me.
Other notes: Rusevs nail in the coffin has just began, Its going to be hammered shut when he quits at Payback because we all know Cena isnt going to. Was stupid as hell taking the belts off Cesaro/Kidd so soon. They just started really clicking and getting the ball rolling and here comes Kofi Kingston tag team of the month title reign #24.

I was suprised at how good BigShow/Reigns was! Reigns is starting to really win me over, he still looks a bit nervous at times but he has gotten a lot better recently!
The Main Event was pretty much what I expected, and I'm SICK of Kane in the Main Event! He and BigShow need to go away as soon as possible... I'm also a bit disapointed that we didn't see any Top Maneuver from Rollins, I expexted at least a Moonsault or something...

Between 360 and laptop. They both lag, but at different spots. Have you run a speed test on your network? I wouldn't be surprised if it's on WWE's end, of course, but it's important to rule out your end too. What is acceptable? Download speed came in at 58.89 Mbps

Reigns vs. Big Show was great stuff and MOTN for me. Seeing the crowd reactions to Reigns also made me very happy.

I'm glad to see that people finally realize that the people reporting Big Show and Roman Reigns were putting on super entertaining matches on the house shows weren't just huffing paint. Did I miss a Wyatt promo? He had a promo on the kickoff but I don't recall him having one during the PPV.

I just want an epic three-way tag match between the Luchas, New Day and Cats N Facts at Payback.

I just reviewed the show. Solid but unspectacular. The Divas match, Chain match and main event were the three matches that I didn't like. Everything else was good to really good. Not a bad way to spend three or so hours.

IMO the build up was crappy and the Show as well. I get that you weren't happy with the result of the Tag Title match (me either) or the stipulation in Ziggler/Sheamus, but they were both strong matches. And while Cena/Rusev was dull, Show/Reigns was far better than expected. You kind of crapped on the show without giving a chance to one of its best matches and saying "WHY?" to matches that were actually good in most people's eyes.

I didn't really enjoy the PPV. It felt like a mediocre episode of RAW or Smackdown. Nothing special.
Luke Harper vs. Dean Ambrose was ruined by it being so gimmicky. Having them drive off was stupid, and the whole thing was pretty much chairs and kendo sticks. I would have liked to see some more actual wrestling, because both guys have the potential to be show-stealers, but but match was ruined by how gimmicky and campy it was.
Sheamus vs Ziggler was a mediocre match and had an awful stipulation. They wasted way too much time having Sheamus stall and the ref screaming "YOU GOTTA KISS HIS ASS".
Cesaro/Kidd vs. New Day was pretty good. Not PPV quality though. It was nothing different than what they do on RAW/Smackdown.
Naomi vs. Nikki was ok but nothing special. Naomi does not impress me.
Rusev vs. Cena was ruined by the chain, and of their 3 matches this was the worst one.
Roman Reigns vs. Big Show was match of the night. It wasn't spectacular, but given the right environment, it was entertaining. That match without tables would have been a disaster. Here was on case where the stipulation actually HELPED the match.
Seth Rollins vs. Randy Orton was ok, but I feel like not as good as it could have been. Their Mania match was better.
All in all, the show in my opinion was very disappointing and I think it's time to get rid of the Extreme Rules PPV because with the exception of oman Reigns/Big Show, these matches were actually hurt by the stipulations. Extreme Rules is a joke. Russian Chain? Kiss me arse? Come on....that's just bad at this point.
The Post-Wrestlemania let down has started, so it's going to be pretty hard to watch from now until MITB/SummerSlam, I would assume.

Have you run a speed test on your network? I wouldn't be surprised if it's on WWE's end, of course, but it's important to rule out your end too. What is acceptable? Download speed came in at 58.89 Mbps Almost certainly them, then. Include that information when you email them. As a general rule of thumb, 2-3Mbps down will allow you to stream SD video with minimal hiccups. 4-7Mbps will handle 720p (the Network's max rate) well. The faster you have, though, the better off you'll be. You're well beyond the requirements. Unless your speed was dipping dramatically during the broadcast, for whatever reason, there's no reason your end would cause the hiccups with that speed.
