That was a good kickoff match.

Cedric Alexander vs Kalisto - Cruiserweight Championship

I don't watch 205, so I don't know the storyline behind it. I like Kalisto. Hopefully it is a fun match.

Cedric Alexander keeps title. Good action filled match, but would have liked to see more working with the crowd.

It's weird having JR and the King there and not commentating.

So apparently Brock speared Roman through the cage, Reigns feet hit the ground first, but somehow they still say Brock won.

Reigns feet clearly hit the floor first, Brock was still laying on the cage.

Also, nice use of zip ties. :burt:

5 hours is way too long for a PPV. They didn't need the non-title matches or Cruiserweight, or include them into the kickoff show. It should be no more than 4 hours long, and that sometimes gets old. I was actually pretty disappointed by the end of it. It might be I was ready for the PPV to be over by the time the RR match began.

I like Lesnar as an attraction who is hardly never there, but I am tired of him now when Heyman barely shows up to do promos. They need a new champion right now.

They should honestly use the footage of Reigns feet touching first to strip Lesnar of the title so we can have a real, not part time champion again. Lesnar is gonna disappear until SS anyway like he always does so strip him and then he can come back all pissed off for a rematch in August.

They could go that route creative can do what they want. But if they are going the technical route Reigns kinda botched that. When you break the frames down frame by frame.Reigns feet start off on the broken section of cage. On top of Lesnar. When Reigns rolls his feet never actually touch the ground. They go from the cage to propped up on the ring apron. Where Lesnars touch the ground first when he rolls the opposite direction.

I’m bored with a Lesnar holding the title too. But I think it’s time to move toward a different challenger to take the title. They have plenty of options especially after the shake up imo

Altogether PPV was kinda boring

Why can't they be consistent with their booking? First they give us a good episode of RAW then an alright episode of Smackdown but then all their PPVs are complete dumpster fires. SMH

Because Vince who has the last say creatively is senile but owns the company so everyone is afraid to tell him most of his ideas are old, outdated and suck.

I thought the idea for the last minute match between Cena and Undertaker was pretty creative

Wasn't last minute at all or Cena calling UT out for a month makes no sense without the payoff. Plus that's old school booking 101.
