No, she lost to Bayley at the Rumble last year (I think), and they made virtually no fuss about her loss. What a bloody waste.

Worse, FastLane. And it was screwy, even though Charlotte was the heel. They fucked Bayley so hard, they really did. Even before they jobbed her clean to Alexa in her home town.

I watched the main. Some of the action was fun, but them trying to act like Ziggler is a big deal really grates on me and it suffered from the same garbage about "going to Mania" (vs winning the title) and Cena's "no clear path to Mania" as Elimination Chamber.

This Money In The Bank card looks stinking. Seriously, look at this:

Money in the Bank Match Card:

  • Daniel Bryan vs. Big Cass
  • Nia Jax (c) vs. Ronda Rousey (For the Raw Women's Championship)
  • Carmella (c) vs. Asuka (For the Smackdown Women's Championship)
  • Roman Reigns vs. Jinder Mahal
  • Bobby Lashley vs. Sami Zayn
  • Seth Rollins (c) vs. Elias (For the Intercontinental Championship)
  • The Bludgeon Brothers (c) vs. The Good Brothers (For the Smackdown Tag Team Championship)
  • AJ Styles (c) vs. Shinsuke Nakamura (Last Man Standing Match for the WWE Championship)
  • Lana, Natalya, Alexa Bliss, Charlotte, Ember Moon, Becky Lynch, Naomi, and Sasha Banks (Money in the Bank match)
  • Samoa Joe, Kevin Owens, Bobby Roode, Braun Strowman, The Miz, Rusev, Finn Balor, and one member of The New Day (Money in the Bank match)

If you can find anything on that show to get excited about, other than the men's ladder match, then you're a whole good 'un.

 

EDIT: Bray and Matt Hardy Vs The B Team is on the show as well, bringing it to 11 matches at this point.

Imagine not giving a shit about Styles vs Nakamura. That’s what it’s come to. 

The excitement level for seeing these two with each other has been sucked right out of this feud completely. A lazy build to their first encounter, followed by a let down of a match at Mania, with terrible finishes in the subsequent PPV matches have left me not willing to get interested in this match now. Which is a shame, as WWE's Last Man Standing matches are nearly always very good or great.

Seriously hoping that the mens MITB match has someone get "injured" beforehand leading to a last-minute mystery replacement. The other seven are in the ring, the announcer says "and the last participant is..." and a few seconds later 'Cult of Personality' hits - huge crowd pop only for Roman Reigns to come out as the last minute entrant who goes on to get the briefcase in less than five minutes after the bell on his first run up the ladder having taken no big hits or bumps. Reigns then immediately announces he's cashing it in straight away for the WWE Championship (Styles or Nakamura) after that match earlier in the evening ends in a bloodbath with both men barely able to walk back through the curtain. Bell goes, quick superman punch then a spear, cover, gets the pin, new WWE Champion! Fans are a little upset, Chicago PD riot squad called to the arena.

Probably not happen though.

I fucking hate them.

"Great idea for a match lads. The nearfalls last three times as long."

Nah, probably not.

For the best, I reckon.

Take out all the CM Punk bollocks and I really think they have missed a trick with not having Roman in the ladder match.

Have him win it, then build up to a Rollins/Lesnar match at Summerslam, Rollins becomes the guy who finally overcomes the beast with multiple curb stromps (the one move that you could actually buy finshing Brock off), only for Roman to cash in straight away and beat Rollins.

It would be a great tie in to Mania 31, and would set up your Mania 35 main event of a heel Reigns and a face Rollins chasing the belt, maybe giving Rollins the rumble win or something.

Instead, a smackdown guy will win it, and Reigns will beat Brock at Summerslam in front of complete apathy as no one cares.
