I'm more disappointed than surprised that R-Truth beat King Barrett. I would like the King of the Ring tournament to have more value, but right now, it doesn't.
The Money In The Bank Ladder Match was real good. I'm surprised Bray Wyatt cost Roman Reigns the match, even though I heard the rumor of that potentially happening. I think they will have an intriguing feud all leading up to Reigns getting back into the WWE Title picture. I'm fine with Sheamus having the briefcase. I think he can do well with it.
Surprised that Paige didn't win after her pre match interview. Glad she didn't because I am more interested in a rematch now with the Dusty finish, done in his memory. I don't know if Paige will be the one to give Nikki what she has coming to her because of her saying "no one has offered to help" in her interview. Maybe someone helping her take down The Bella Twins will be the key to Nikki getting her just due.
Hot start to the Intercontinental Championship match. Things were good when they slowed down. I'm fine with The Miz interfering in the match. I figured Ryback was going to retain, but not win clean. I just forgot about The Miz variable. I guess this will be building to a triple threat match? I think I'm more interested in seeing Ryback squash Big Show at the moment. Ryback should be built up like The Ultimate Warrior. The Intercontinental Title could benefit from it.
I just don't think I am as high on the John Cena and Kevin Owens matches as others. This match felt more like a collection of moves with nothing else really to it, except for Owens mocking Cena with his moves and Cena paying him back for it. Cena getting the win is fine. The post match angle makes up for it. Owens laughing about it was sick and twisted, delightfully evil. Loved it.
I'm not too big on the decision to put The Prime Time Players over The New Day because I think the trio had much more mileage, but we will see where it goes. It was enjoyable match. Perhaps a little too one sided for a title change, but I enjoyed it.
I really enjoyed the Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose match. Good and logical story with Rollins targeting the leg of Ambrose and the maniac coming back from the dead multiple times. Logic was sort of thrown out the window when Ambrose chased after Rollins up the ramp and into the crowd, but it makes sense from Rollins's perspective of playing the human chess game and him knowing that Ambrose would not be happy with him running away. Brandon's idea of Rollins murdering Ambrose being the finish is one that I thought was going to happen with the "symbolic burial" (that'll get em riled up!), but I'm happy with the finish because this feud is going to be one revisited for years. Just like the Hell in a Cell finish. Rollins won, but he didn't beat Ambrose, he survived him by the skin of his teeth. My match of the night.
