having been kinda bored with WWE and wrestling in general in the past few weeks, I didn't bother watching the whole show. I looked up the three matches I had any interest in...:
Dolph vs Cesaro - I watched this, thinking it could potentially be great. Best of Three falls, the highlights I've seen of Raw lately made Dolph look like he was on form, and this match lived up to it. I enjoyed it, a couple of great spots - particularly the submission move into a suplex off the second rope made Cesaro look like a beast. What I didn't expect was Dolph winning 2-0 in falls. Cesaro deserves so much better than he's getting at the moment, he's getting tons of title shots and losing the lot of them. Again, if only he'd been turned face after Mania...
Great to see Cesaro break out an old-school powerbomb too.
Rusev vs Big Show - I watched this out of curiosity. The first time Rusev had gone up against a genuine main eventer, and he got a clean submission win. I can't remember the last time Show tapped out. I was half-expecting Henry to turn heel when he appeared at ringside, but good to see Rusev's push continue. Can't help thinking he's got the one-man-push-ending-machine John Cena in his very near future though.
Rollins vs Ambrose - parts of this were just nuts. The biggest compliment I can pay it was that most of what they did would not have looked out of place in the Attitude era. Huge bumps, drama, both going off the Cell, and a nice homage to Foley at the start, this was one hell of a match.
Bray Wyatt coming in at the end makes things a bit more interesting too - has he aligned with the Authority? Where were the Ascension, who are supposed to be joining him?
In the other stuff, AJ retained, Cena beat Orton so we get Cena vs Brock again, Gold&Stardust won, and one of the Bellas did something. Meh.
