That was an okay main event. Brock actually did some different stuff for once.

And Brock bled the hard way and it was from a nasty gash.

Wouldn't be surprised if they audibled to that "surprise" finish to protect both men and close up that nasty cut. (More the former than later, though.)

Definitely should've had Bad Bunny vs Priest close that show. You could tell after that match the crowd wasn't as into it as they were before (not that they weren't great the entire show, but the entire show was building to that match, just to do it with an hour to go afterwards.

When Cody reversed the hold for the pin, Brock just laid there dead for a 3 count.

Fun show. Crowd was real hot and that always makes the show better. Don't think any celebrity should ever go over your main talents though. Bianca and Io was excellent. Zelina seems like a genuinely decent, appreciative, humble person. Happy Cody won but incredibly boring and uninspiring match because Brock Lesnar is a soul-sucking cancerous loser who hasn't been interesting in any way since he wrestled the guy with a broken freakin' neck 20 ****ing years ago and even then not really. All that nonsense for the last month for a 10 minute match at ultimately what is tantamount to a throwaway PPV. I have no idea what people see in having this guy come around for these "big matches" still. Fast forwarded through the Bloodline stuff. Kind of sucks. They had such an amazing build to Wrestlemania that now they're suffering from fatigue keeping it going. Probably should pull the plug soon. Or maybe it just needs Roman around.

I only noticed during the show when they had the promo that Night of Champions is a Saudi show. Smfh. Definitely not watching that one. Guess you can't even start your new belt that you shouldn't even have to an audience that actually cares about your product huh. SMFH.

One of their better PLE to me. I had a blast from start to finish watching it. The crowd helped a ton.

Amazing show and really fun which is what wrestling is should be all about at the end of the day.

Only real complaint is not booking the street fight main event. Triple H is a good booker, but that was an L. How anybody can see this shot and not see that WWE trademark in the bottom corner of the screen as the money closing shot as opposed to what we got is a mystery to me

I wonder if that was always the original plan or something changed (Lesnar wanting to go on last? Vince having a hand in the match order?)

Even the final video after the show seemed off. I get it's hard to edit live videos into a recap video, but during that recap video the music just cut off after the tag match and they quickly played the ending of Rhodes-Lesnar and the show just cut off after that. Usually they edit in the final match highlights into the post show video recap.
