Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 4230267, member: 1969"] After thinking about it further it was more than fairly good.. it was a good entertaining show. Obviously not great like recent AEW PPV's. It clearly surpassed expectations -- although that is helped by low expectations going in due to poor build and it being a WWE show. But it was entertaining and had some great wrestling in spots. And going through this in PVR, rather than live makes it an easier show to enjoy. Can't watch a WWE live for the most part. Starting from the end - The Austin/Owens match was not great wrestling but it clearly passed the entertainment threshold. The WWE actually benefitted here from setting the bar low. Have to commend Owens for leading that match to make Austin look as good as possible. This was better than say the Bret Hart return some years back. Rousey/Flair was fairly good wrestling. But it really suffered from no heat as there was no face here. Not a good build. And you need both to have a really good Wrestlemania match. This was not that, but not bad either. Cody/Seth was a great match. Very well produced and it was dramatic despite everyone knowing it would happen. Perhaps a few too many false finish spots but still a good finish. WWE did not tinker with Cody's AEW character for the most part. If we can start getting some good talent from AEW/heading to WWE and the WWE upping their product is a good thing for fans. The AEW roster is great but its too bloated. They will be able to do even more with less. Belair/Lynch was at a great pace. good wrestling, and they had a fairly good build on this one. Match 4/5 of the card were an outstanding hour or so of entertainment. The best WWE hour in an at least a few years. First 3 matches were "meh". I thought the Myserio - Paul/Miz match was fairly decent entertainment. The celebrities they have got the last few years (Paul/Bad Bunny) added to the show. Paul was actually good at as a heel - which of course the WWE decided to make him a face at the end in some sort of future match -- which is dumb but so WWE. Drew/Corbin was OK I suppose -- nobody cares and everybody is tired of it, so it could have been worse. First match was nothing great even before the injury. Boogs is such a VInce thing. Don't get him even if he is strong. Makes me thing of Ted Arcidi many years back -- that being sad to see him get injured in that way. [/QUOTE]
