Charlotte Flair was all over the place during this segment. I’ve mentioned this before, the women need to stop crying after every high-profile match. Zayn held his ground and even garnered a handshake from Booker. Raw Talk and Talking Smack are both indicators and opportunities to show or gain experience. Thumbs Up: Sami Zayn. He handled himself extremely well when grilled by Booker T. Considering his proportions, his standing flips are breathtaking. Thumbs Up: Kevin Owens. Owens might be carrying a couple extra pounds but he is so damn agile. Too many title changes, too close together have colored this rivalry in a negative manner.ħ.) Universal Championship: Kevin Owens (c) defeated Roman Reigns by disqualification when Chris Jericho interfered and gave Owens a Codebreaker. Thumbs Down: Yet another title change. As much as I like both women, I’m glad this is the last meeting between the two for the foreseeable future. Thumbs Up: The match. This was an entertaining, well-executed bout with a suspenseful ending. Maybe the return of a heel Neville is the missing ingredient that will set fire to the division.Ħ.)

Cruiserweight Championship: Rich Swann (c) defeated Brian Kendrick and TJ Perkins to retain the title. A heel being cunning, sneaky, or desperate is one thing. Thumbs Down: Friendship. Portraying the Universal Champion in a backstage segment begging another wrestler to be his friend doesn’t sit well with me.Yes, the segments have been a bright spot on the otherwise dull weekly programming but I get nervous when the champion is portrayed as needy. And if things work out, both can come out of this feud the better for it.Ĥ.) Seth Rollins pinned Chris Jericho after a Pedigree. Massive, but green, Strowman needed to move beyond jobber opponents and Zayn is just the guy to pair with him. Thumbs up: Zayn getting a push. It is about time that the WWE has finally figured out where he excels…as an underdog. A break from television followed by a heel turn is in order for the trio.ģ.) Sami Zayn defeated Braun Strowman by avoiding defeat within the 10-minute time limit of the match. Their act expired before they even had the belts and it has only gotten worse. Thumbs Down: The New Day. Yes, I applaud that champions were given a long title run, but I just wish it wasn’t them. I hope the creative department takes note.

The backward booking of the feud puts it behind the 8-ball in the first place. The countout finish to the Rusev-Cass match was a total waste of airtime. It will only help the performers grow.ġ.) Rusev (w/ Lana) defeated Big Cass (w/ Enzo Amore) by countout. Thumbs Up: Wrestlers on the panel. Bayley and TJ Perkins were given valuable time in front of a live camera in a non-scripted manner.
