Kind of, but I think this is just a transition phase while they build AJ up as the top face and introduce Nakamura. Hopefully.

I have not watched either, but I don't see Balor winning here because I've read the winner of this is just being fed to Brock while they build Brock vs. Strowman for Summerslam.

WWE has been absolutely awful lately. Strange, because they have all the tools to be great. Nakamura and Styles are top performers though, in and out of the ring.

Hopefully Extreme Rules wil be ok. Will watch it tomorrow morning.

Saw somewhere Joe has the best gambling odds to win.. makes sense because it's just a holdover opponent for Brock til he faces Braun at ss

Scored tickets to raw tomorrow night in Wilkes Barre

Bayley really needs the win today. She is a great talent, and did so well in NXT. Can't understand why they are booking her so poorly.

She desperately needs to improve her mic skills.

I don't think that is the real problem. She was way over in NXT. She has been totally neutered on RAW. She should be the female Daniel Bryan, but they give her poor Roman Reign-lines, and no logic to her booking.

Joe-Brock intrigues me more than Balor-Brock.

Fatal 5 Way- Samoa Joe
Tag Titles- Cesaro/Sheamus
Women's Title- Alexa
CW title- Neville
IC title- Miz

The IC title was what you would expect, but mostly in a good way. Entertaining.

The next three matches sort of went by in a blur, nothing special. A shame they didn't go with Aries, as he could use a title run. Cesaro/Sheamus was the surprise, but the ending was really poor. Bliss is hot these days, really performing well. The Bayley interview was the worst part of the entire show.

The 5-way was really good. Lots of good spots, storytelling, and a good ending.

The 5 way was awesome, I'm really pumped for Joe-Brock. Most of the rest of the show was shitty and marred by awful booking. Alexa is the total package and, I think, the most promising female wrestler the company has ever had.

The Joe/Heyman segment was the best thing they've done in a long time. When Heyman was talking I said to myself "The perfect thing to do would be to have Joe choke Heyman out, but they aren't smart enough to do that."

I'm really surprised at how well done Joe-Brock has been thus far. They've done exactly what they should have done 2 weeks in a row, which is like unprecedented in modern day WWE.
