4/10 for me. I've seen tons of positive reviews in the LD though which confuses me. One good match, one decent match with a horribly predictable outcome, and the rest was pure filler.
7/10 for me.
Rhodes/Rybaxel - About what I expected. Would've liked to see the pop on a perfect plex, crowd wanted Axel.
Swagger/Big E was a lot better than expected. Some good spots, I thought it was a good way to open the show.
Usos/NAO - Decent match, could've been better.
Titus/Young was okay. Definitely could've been a lot better, the crowd wanted to shit on it apparently.
Shield/Wyatts - MOTY. Rollins really shined, dat German super plex spot >. Reigns looked like a beast, and the Wyatts were great. Harper's boot to Ambrose was insane.
AJ/Cameron - Piss break
ADR/Batista was better than I thought it would be I guess.
Chamber - Great match, loved seeing Wyatts come in, Cristian's frog splash was dope. Cesaro was great, and Bryan vs HHH being set up it seems like. Orton won, which is a downer.

Decent PPV considering. The PPV between the Rumble and Mania always seems like "low Sunday" to me.
Wyatts/Shield match was terrific. Solid work, great ending. Reigns and Wyatt looked like monsters and gave a glimpse of what the future holds. Rollins was a force to be reckoned with and got the "going through the table" spot we all knew someone would get. I just wondered where Ambrose was at the end.
The EC match itself was very good. It was overbooked, but it's tough not to overbook that type of gimmick match. The Wyatt invasion of the Chamber was basically expected (the debate was whether or not they would be physically involved), but it was a good way to get Kane to ringside to interfere in the final outcome. The only problem I really had with the match was that the crowd was so into Bryan that, in the aftermath of the match, they just looked numb. I'd be concerned if I was backstage.
Batista/ADR was what we thought it would be. If anything, I give them a higher rating for this match because ADR was allowed to get in some decent offense. In fact, his offense was all the offense in the match prior to Batista "hulking up" and hitting his "Five Moves of Doom" (actually, I think he's only got three) and pinning Del Rio for the win.
Swagger/Langston was actually pretty entertaining. It gave both guys a chance to look strong and show off what they could do. I saw this match get crapped on in a few places and I don't know why. If you expected Flair/Sting, you were going to be disappointed.
NAO/Usos was good. It could have been better, but still a decent match for what they were given time for.
Young/Titus - I honestly don't remember that match. I think that was when I was having internet issues.
Rybaxel/Rhodes was pretty decent for pre-show. I loved seeing the Axe out there. I give it points for nostalgia.
The Divas match was pretty random. I would have rather seen AJ win clean, but....whatever.
All-in-all, 6/10.

Iono wasn't all impressed except for Shield/Wyatts and pretty much the first part of the EC.
I'd give the show like a 6/10, they could've use less filler matches

4/10 Wyatts and Shield match sounded like it was the only thing worth watching and of course the ending with Randy and Bryan was predictable and it sucked. When you don't get to see the PPV the fastest place to find things out is on Twitter. People will tell you what happens as it happens
4/10: It was too predictable for me the only good match on the card was the wyatts vs the shield. Its really sad how WWE dosent try to surprise us now wrestlemanias Main event is going to be boring as hell.
6/10, pretty average PPV and even my local pub did not show it! (they have shown the last 5 WWE PPV's) so I took that in to consideration before watching.
- Big E vs. Swagger: Your average IC title defence. The entertaining spots were Big E's athletic moves as expected.
- NAO vs. Uso's - Tag Titles: This match was a predictable defence also. I pretty much made some food during this match as it was so predictable who would win. The only reason for this match IMO is to build moment going in to Wrestlemania, here is where I expect the Uso brothers to take the tag titles from the NAO in some gimmick match maybe for their first Tag-team Championship.
- Titus Vs. Young: Made a green tea at the start of this bout, frankly couldn't give a shit about it, predicting no significance in terms of momentum going in to Wrestlemania. Frankly this match could have occurred on any of your average Smackdown showings on Friday evenings.
- Divas Title Match: A random match but also severely boring. The winner was predictable. Pretty sure this leads to AJ Lee Vs. Tamina at Wrestlemania, calling a Snuka win.
- The Wyatt Family Vs. The Shield: This was my favourite encounter of the night and was far better than I expected, The build-up promo before the match was very well produced and got me very excited for the contest before it began, this for me was the best 6-man tag match I have seen in a long time. It was fairly predictable that the Wyatt's would win on the basis of Bray Wyatt's push and The Shield's potential break-up heading in to 'Mania'. I was pleased with how they used Reigns in this match despite the pinfall loss, it demonstrated his powerhouse abilities.
- Batista Vs. Del Rio: LOL at Del Rio getting pop's over Batista. This was a very average contest that I wanted Del Rio to win by the end! The reality is that this was a glorified squash match leadin in to the main event of WM 30.
Main Event - Elimination Chamber: Overall I feel like this was a pretty good chamber. It was widely presumed that Orton would retain inside the structure and he did so in predictable fashion. For a moment after Bryan kicked out of the 1st RKO I got a little excited that there may be an upset but Kane's interference confirmed the inevitable. I hope to god we do not see Bryan Vs. Kane < poor and predictable WM 30 contest, HHH better step in to change this assumed pile of turd. I think many of us predicted the Wyatt's attack on Cena going in to WM 30, calling a Wyatt win here.
Overall a very very average WWE PPV. Could have done with the extra three hours TBH

7/10, Wyatts vs The Shield was Awwesome, All the Other matches were decent and the EC Chamber matches was good, if we don't count the ending. The Divas match and Batista vs ADR was utter shit, But It was a good laugh seeing ADR being cheered at.
