I figured you and I might be one of like 7 around here haha.
Same (Rollins/Ambrose)....I don't usually care who goes over in matches but hopefully Brock beats Cena.
I expect Steph/Brie to be very entertaining.

I expect Cena to win, but I'll still be pissed if he does.

At times, that Rollins/Ambrose match was super intense; definitely preferred their one-on-one stuff to the lumberjack shenanigans (although I did like how for the most part, there wasn't the usual distinction of heel lumberjacks only go after the face and vice-versa).

They are dragging this Rollins/Ambrose feud out and I love it. I'm assuming they will meet in the cell at Hell in a Cell.
I know some are cooling on him but I'm loving Bray Wyatt. Guy can fucking work for a big guy.

Without question. I'm not even a Cena hater. I just find Brock more entertaining. Brock should win and hold the title until Mania.
Worried this PPV is too Heel-ish so far though. I guess Brie can go over and then Brock can still win?

"The Beast Incarnate" is an awkward nickname.

That was incredible. Brock just manhandled Cena. 16 Germans? Good lord.
Fun ppv.

I thought Lesnar would win, but I didn't think it'd be a no-doubter.
Solid card throughout. I'm definitely reupping my network subscription...did you guys know it's only $9.99?

Anyone else notice Rick Rubin right behind Cole, King and JBL?
Not sure I have ever seen a title match that was pure domination like that.
I'm curious what is next for Lesnar? It'll be interesting. They really need Brock with no Punk or Bryan and Reigns not quite ready to be the guy. That is just my opinion.
I'm sure we will get Rollins/Ambrose again at Night of Champions. Maybe Ambrose wins and wins the Brief case and Rollins wins it back at Hell in a Cell? I'm really hoping we get Rollins/Ambrose in the cell!
Nikki Bella and Lana are really wonderful at doing squats.
Just $9.99? That's it? I had no idea. I'd pay twice as much for the network. I think it's great.
I'm going to the Smackdown taping after Labor day. My friend is taking a sign that says I only paid $9.99 for my ticket.

Usually, I'm pretty anti-Orton, but he had a couple of good spots last night (like reversing the spear into a powerslam) that take great timing and concentration. It's funny that he's looked better in a loss than he did for months as champion.

Last night was them making up for fucking things up in the first place when they had Lesnar lose in his first match back two years ago

Yes and no.
No way Cena was going to lose two big matches in a row after losing to Rock at WM 28. Brock still came out of that looking like a beast. Especially after not wrestling for 8 years.

That's such faulty logic, and that logic is one of the things I hate about the current WWE product

I don't disagree it's faulty logic but yes that is current WWE for ya.

I fucking fell asleep during the Stephanie/Brie match and when I woke up Lesnar was holding up the belts. Looking forward to seeing what I missed after work today.
Also, I am officially in love with Paige.

That main event was more of a "story to tell later on" kind of match. In that it wasn't great to watch, but it now gives Heyman the juice to go on about Lesnar's domination of Cena and Taker.
Paige/AJ is a very different experience inside my head.
Rollins/Ambrose was too short, but they'll obviously do a series now, hopefully building to an epic and brutal battle at the end of it all.

Dude you will love Brock/Cena if you don't like Cena. Brock made him look like a small child.
Paige is kind of awesome. Love her as a heel.

I do wonder where they are going with Brock now. He pretty much buried the whole roster last night with how badly he stomped Cena.
Rollins/Ambrose feud is screaming Hell in a Cell for the breifcase.

Yeah, they kinda booked themselves into a corner--you can feel that the next few PPVs are going to be about Cena training to get another shot at Lesnar. (Get ready for some 80s-style montages!) There really aren't many people on the roster who can stand up to Lesnar: Reigns isn't ready, Orton would create a heel-heel situation, and someone else who's been big time (Big Show?) just doesn't make sense story wise. About halfway through the main event, I was wishing for a Cena victory and a Rollins cash-in just to keep things interesting.
