Roman/Uso was great. Roman's turn gets better every match.

I agreed with everything besides the finish in the Miz match. Typical WWE angle but atleast the briefcase is off Otis and that storyline is finally over.

All three cell matches really delivered. Really good show! Roman has done great with the heel turn so far, he has been so good that I think fans will still hate him when they come back. He has been such a bastard so far.

The only thing I am not happy about with Randy winning the title is an odd quirk of mine. And that is that itβs his 14th reign and unless the number has a 2 in it or if it starts with a 5 or 9 I HATE even numbers. So now he needs to drop it and regain it to make it 15. lol

This was basically a three-match show, and all three really delivered.
Reigns-Uso was so, so good. The storytelling in the match was incredible. Reigns has never been better than he is right now.
Sasha-Bayley was awesome. It was one of the best HIAC matches of the PG-era. It was awesome from start to finish. Now we'll see if Sasha has a first successful title defense.
Orton-Drew was really good. I'm not overly thrilled with Orton as champion, simply because I thought Drew was a great champion. We'll see where they go from here. It's a shame that Drew's reign never had fans. Hopefully, he will get another run when fans are back, whenever that happens.
Miz with the briefcase is fine. I just don't see him cashing in on Orton, unless he tries and a mistake by Morrison costs him.
The rest of the show was nothing special, but the three HIAC matches made sure the show was good overall.

Some guys are just born heels and THIS Roman is who we always wanted.

This. Iβm fine with Randy winning the title as long as he drops it before Edge gets back (maybe Edge costs him the title). Randy is over regardless of being the champ or not. Edge is a part timer who got hurt in his second match back after a near-decade retirement. Like Randy, he doesnβt need the title, nor can he be trusted to stay healthy for any length of a title reign. So Edge wins the title, Miz cashes in on him? I feel like thereβs a few possibilities as long as Miz successfully cashes in... - Edge wins the title, only for Miz to cash in - Edge returns, beats down Randy, and Miz cashes in - Drew wins the title back from Randy, only for Miz to cash in - Randy defends against βx opponentβ and Miz cashes in during the match They may also have Otis ruin Mizβs cash in, or the WWE just has Miz fail at his cash in without anyone screwing him.

THEORY: The Fiend last week pulled out that red cross thing when he was unpacking. He used it in his feud with Orton. And Fiend taking out Retribution last week COULD have been the beginning of a face turn, so maybe Orton vs Bray is upcoming?

Just about everything the Fiend has done has dealt with people from his past, and he and Orton sure do have a past.

As the Fiend changes everyone he's in a feud with, I look forward to seeing Orton in trousers when it is all over.

I'm really over that fall off the cell from mid cage through the table bump
it's became the new spear through the barricade near the time keeper's desk
wish drew had won.

So ... they take the case off the joke that is Otis ... to put it on the joke that is Miz. Ok.

While the fall from mid-cage is over done by this point, I thought that Drew and Randy made it look the most realistic of al of those falls weβve seen over the past decade. Usually it looks super contrived and set-up when they pull that spot off. Randy clawing at Drewβs fingers gave it some realism.

Randy Orton is going to have slim pickings in terms of a babyface challengers who are full timers Only the main event or semi-main Braun Strowman - I don't think these two had a one-on-one match. Drew McIntyre - We had three ppv matches. Jeff Hardy - How many ing times these are going to have a match against each other. Keith Lee - Had a few matches but Lee has lost so much momentum at the moment. The Fiend/Bray Wyatt - That match at WrestleMania was crap and the movie style match was pure crap. The Fiend should be a used as special attraction and should never been in a title match. I would put Edge on this list but he is a part timer and I hate when they put the title on a part time performer. I honestly don't want to see Edge win the title. I believe The Miz will cash in and lose the cash in match.

I thought it was so weird they opened the PPV with Jey Vs Roman. It was so emotional and such a tense story. Definitely not that 'show opener' type of match. I get they wanted to span out the Cell matches the best they could. I think Bayley Vs Sasha with Sasha winning the belt would have been a better way to open.
Great PPV, though! If only we had some decent undercard matches going on. The card away from the Cell matches was DREADFUL. I would have maybe done a Hardy's and Street Profits Vs Cesaro/Nakamura/Elias, and maybe Riddle Vs Braun, or something. Matches that could have been kept short but still delivered something exciting.
Thank God this Otis storyline is over. Ugh, please don't make me watch Otis Vs Tucker. Miz as MITB seems odd in 2020 but I think he has been long overdue for a world title run. Still surprised he didn't hold it somewhere in 2016-2018.

Opening with Reigns/Uce was so stupid in hindsight. Got everyone's hopes up for SOMETHING happening in the main event and all we got was a pretty routine Orton win that fell flat.
Still pissed McIntyre lost, I get Orton is on his best run in years and deserves another reign, but no one has really come out of the feud looking great. Drew could only beat Orton with a back slide and with the help of a bunch of old guys while at the same time it took Orton THREE attempts to beat him.
Hopefully it's a short reign as his eventual match with Edge doesn't need the title, would be overkill, and hopefully Drew isn't forgotten and is solidified as a main eventer now.

I don't find randy to be crazy entertaining, but his and Drew's feud has been absolutely one of the best things in wrestling in 2020. it's a serious feud with two legit guys going for the belt that have a blood feud. I will take that in wrestling when I can get it. lol

Everyone knows how good Orton/Roman/Drew are and they are at the top of the card for a reason...but can we all take a second to appreciate just how much Jey Uso has stepped up and made himself look like a credible fn threat lately. I never could get behind the random ass Kofi Kingston push, but Iβm completely on board with this Uce push. Iβd prefer to see a new finisher than the splash from the top, but Iβd completely buy keeping him (maybe Jimmy too) in an upper card role, occasionally stepping into the main event scene if need be. I honestly never thought Iβd say that, as Iβve never been big on them...but Jey actually has me invested in this whole story with Roman.
Roman, on the same hand, is absolutely knocking it outside of the park...however I think we ALL knew he would excel as that bastard heel. Heβs sooo good in this role, itβs insane.

I know a lot of people are out right now but I canβt believe anyone wants to see Miz in the world title picture these days. I donβt hate Miz but heβs been stale for a long time and is one of the weakest world champ ever imo.
