    It's about 60/40 with 60 being the promos and backstage segments, and 40 being wrestling. They constantly rehash matches too.

    If i were you I'd just watch SD Live.

    I normally don't watch raw at all, which is a shame bc they have alot of really talented wrestlers on their show

    I lost all hope in matches not being rehashed after the whole Cena vs Orton 1,474,790 times debacle.

    Just some quick thoughts on the show:

    1. I thought all matches were entertaining. All matches on this day stood out, because all had very clear match stories, which isnt a normality in modern WWE. Also all had enought time to shine. So wrestling-wise the event was pretty solid, keeping a 3 3/4 or 4 Star level throughout the show.

    (btw: I dont rlly like the star system, thats why I use numbers. I am more of a numbers guy you know)

    - Chris Jericho vs. Kevin Owens - 7/10 - cool in ring work, with nice psychology (finger work), also those flash backs to their older matches were pretty nice, but nothing too special

    - Austin Aries vs. Neville - 8/10 - great match story, great finish, great heel / face work, I liked it, if it would have been a lil longer it woud have been great, but overall nothing special

    - Hardyz vs. Cesaro & Sheamus - 7,5/10 - some cool spots, Cesaro & Sheamus look strong, since they were dominating in the match, also the finish sequences and everything after the match was awesome, but again nothing too special

    - Alexa Bliss vs. Bayley - 8/10 - great heel work by Alexa, she def is one of the best divas since turning heel, Bayley needed to do the most wrestling part, some cool spots, a nice finish, but overall nothing special again

    - Seth Rollins vs. Samoa Joe - 6/10 - I expected prolly most from this match and got disappointed, nice idea with the leg of Rollins, but he didnt rlly sell it, which made Joe look kinda weak, Joe rlly showed of his brawling ability, while Seth showed more of his high-flying style, which mixed well, overall too long and too boring

    - Bray Wyatt vs. Randy Orton - idk how to rate this s---/10 - seriously how can you rate this?

    - Braun Strowman vs. Roman Reigns - 8,5/10 - pure awesomeness, rlly will entertain you


    2. This event celitified Braun Strowman as a massive force to be wreckon with. He looked awesome, not just in the match, but in the pretty good built-up aswell.

    3. The event led to nothing tho. Nearly all feuds will 100% continue , so booking wise the PPV was unnessarcary and led to nothing. Austin Aries will continue going after the Cruiserweight title , after that screw finish. Hardy Boyz will be fighting Cesaro & Sheamus, after they beat them up (btw, it was so cool seeing blood in the WWE again). Bayley will get her rematch. Samoa Joe will be pissed , cause Seth Rollins beat his undefeated record. And Roman is going to return in 1 maybe 1 1/2 months and will beat the s--- out of Braun obv.

    4. The House of Horrors match was pure trash. The pre-recorded stuff was cringey to watch imo, bc it felt like a trash horror movie, with the filter and shaky camera. The only real down point of the show imo. Only positive from the match, was Ortons amazing selling (and facial expressions), and the fridge spot.

    Overall: its alright, its a solid 7/10 show. Check it out, if you want to. The wrestling was pretty alright, but the PPV led to nothing, so you rlly wouldnt miss anything if you skipped this PPV

    Yeah the matches were decent. You were right about seth rollins selling his leg. How the h--- is this guy leg "hurt" and he's flying all over the place like a mad man?

    I also liked how Strowman was a beast. The crowd for me, made that match even better.
