Main Event taping:
The Revival d. The Club
Anderson pinned after hit with finish. The Club wrestled as babyfaces tonight, probably a one off PWG crowd adjustment.
RAW:
Off all the anti-Roman crowds I've been in this one had the most fans on the same page . Boo'd out of the building! I would say Roman only had 65% of the women & children. Braun beats the crap out of Roman via ambulance. Crowd chants "Please Retire", "Go Away" & "Thank You Strowman".
Hardy Boyz & Finn Bálor vs Elias Sampson, Sheamus & Cesaro. Crowd loves the babyfaces. A lot of "DELETE" and " Brother Nero" chants. Balor wins with the coup de gras. Cesaro was selling well or got banged up.
Goldust talks a lot and they play a ton of commercials. I go for food and merch and can hear Samoa Joe threaten Paul Heyman from the beer line. This trip took about 20 minutes. I sit down and Miz TV starts. Another 20 minutes of wasted life. Probably 40 minutes between matches and then we get.
The Miz, Skinny Rhyno & Curtis Axel d. Dean Ambrose, Heath Slater & Real Rhyno.
Nothing much going on here. Our 2nd six-man of the night. Rhyno gets ECW love. I think Dean Ambrose is over but the segment wasn't.
Another talking segment. But it's Enzo Amore. He calls out Big Cass. The "WHAT?" chants are here. The BFF's make up after some really good mic work from both guys. Fans are warning Enzo he's going to get clobbered but he doesn't listen.
Seth Rollins is next! But Curt Hawkins is first. Basic jobber to the stars match for Rollins. Bray Wyatt talks gibberish again. Guy behind me says "who cares, you're just going to lose".
Brock Lesnar has arrived. Paul Heyman gives a promo about Joe not fearing Brock. He calls him a "Samoan dumbass". Lesnar does his entrance and is attacked by Joe. Crowd digs that.
205 Live change over is pretty quick but it's another down period after a talking segment.
Lince Dorado vs Neville
My son is hungry so I "missed" this.
Our main event is a guanlet match for the WWE Women's Championship. Out first is Bayley and she faces Nia Jax who dominates. Jax with the Samoan drop for the 1,2,3. Mickie James is next and it's more of the same. Long bear hug spot. James getting in some offense but it's not enough. Dana Brooke is the next victim, she's knocked down and gets the Hogan leg drop. 1,2,3. Emma is in, Samoan Drop, 1,2,3. Sasha Banks time and business picks up in the crowd
Banks tries to get some quick arial attack but is foiled. Jax back on offense, Banks spending a lot of time outside the ring back in and a sleeper attempt by Jax. Sasha escapes via stunner but Jax recovers. Dominate, Countout attempt, Repeat.
Sasha slips away from Jax hits her with a shinning wizard.
Finish sees Sasha climbs like a tree and secures the Banks Statement for the tap out win.
Your new #1 contender Sasha Banks
Kurt Angle comes out and raises her hand. Alexa Bliss is out. She taunts Banks with the title and gets a drop kick for her time.
