Quite an entertaining show.
Match of the night was without doubt the fatal 4 way, with all the wrestlers putting in excellent performances. Closely followed by the raw tag team title match (though the beating down of the revival just made no sense to me).
The triple threat match was excellent and I even enjoyed the sheild match.
Downside was the treatment of Kofi Kingston in this pay per view was mystifying to me. And made very little sense story wise, and whilst I understood what and why Ronda did what she did, I do think WWE are over cooking this storyline.
But as I said, generally enjoyed it,and was far better than I expected.
