Legit, if Becky and Bianca had a full on back and forth match that helps build them both instead of the extra segments from the Olympic Medalists and Miz and Morrison, I think people would be okay with it because Bianca would still be able to look strong in defeat and we’d still get the feel good moment of Becky being back and being champ again.
Exactly my thoughts, it was so out of character of becky to just bury someone like that, atleast have a proper match with Bianca, she deserves it and it wasn't like that the champ was Eva Marie or Lana who you can just defeat just like that.
I actually really liked the Priest Vs. Sheamus match. Both guys did a serviceable job and the whole thing just felt like a classic, old school mid card match.
I totally agree with you, the US title looks like a World Championship... so treat it like if it was a world title. Even make a type stipulation that would be like a main event for a world title, even though it's not. That would elevate and make things interesting
That's cause every other match was underwhelming, when that happens you become desensitized and rationalize what the most average match was the best match of the show.
It's my personal head canon that the whole time Brock was thinking to himself "well shit...this is a lot more fun when they're happy to see me, I should've done it this way from the start lol"
This show was the perfect example of a mixed bag. It had some good, some bad, and some that will make you scratch your head. Especially with the decision to bring back Becky and have her squash Bianca. That instantly ruined the moment and the entire night if I'm honest.
@@noahp1124 Didn’t realize that her weight stopped her from deserving respect and love. Besides to each their own you know! I mean let’s just look at your name…👀…
They pulled a Kofi Kingston vs brock lesnar moment with that bianca vs lynch finish. We can see a trend with the people who get squashed like this just sayin'...
@@prj7894 uhhhh where you getting that info? The overall general consensus is this ppv bombed badly. Even if we go by your view of things wwe did worse than Aew.
Becky coming back was amazing. But them doing Bianca dirty like that just sucks. Then Freakin' Brock Lesnar comes down, looking like a damn Viking and for whatever reason, shit stomps John Cena.
Vince: ‘Everyone will be CM this, CM that this weekend. Well B is one better than C and L is one better than M. Get me everyone with a name that beginnings with a B and a L.’
Well off those 3 women in the match you can’t deny that Charlotte is the most athletic ,better in ring performer ,better mic skills and looks and walks like a champion….plus daddy Ric flair trending
@@nathannneji17 but shes earned plenty of titles, she really dont need another after another. literally 2 reigns in in the space of a month. shes had her time in the spotlight she should be helping put other superstars over, like cena has been for like the last decade and still doing even though he quite rightly deserves his 16th title at this point
@JustBecause Gaming So what do you want for WWE to do? To step aside charlotte? They always use Charlotte’s potential to take over every match, they use Charlotte’s capability to make the match more interesting, other woman like Nikki ASH won’t shine without the help of big stars, WWE is a business, it’s a way of making money and they really know how to use charlotte, her skills, promos, every match she’s in were always considered as top tier, If charlotte will be taken out of the line, the roster would be boring.
The whole becky-Bianca ordeal was horrible, furthermore how many more times are we going to make Charlotte champion? Another issue I had is the stoppage finish for a wwe championship match at summerslam. Besides that, I have no problems. Main event and Seth vs Edge were good matches, others sufficed and results were good except the women's matches
Really WWE? Doesn't it make sense to bring Becky back for a faceoff with Charlotte considering it was the RAW WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP that she had to vacate? Also doesn't it make more sense for Brock to confront Lashley because that's the match we actually want? This was so easy. Hoow did you mess it up?
Speak for yourself, I thought that was the perfect match for Brock to come back. Not sure who ‘we’ are, but I have no interest in Lashley facing Lesnar, or Lashley facing anyone tbf
Wholeheartedly agree on the Becky part, but I think the reason Brock’s going after Roman has to do with Paul considering Paul’s always been Brock’s manager in modern day
I’m willing to bet Vince shit his pants over cm punk so he begged Becky to come back early and her terms were winning the title. But Vince being Vince didn’t want to produce a full match so we got that garbage squash that buried poor belair
Nah probably a smart move, they probably gonna make Becky heel and because people will see this as bullshit, Becky will get heel heat without officially turning heel
At this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if they have Big E cashing in on Charlotte just so we can have Charlotte’s 13th title reign at Extreme Rules 🙄 Could have had Becky return at the end of Bianca vs Carmella match for a stand off. Or have it be triple threat and Carmella eat the pin. Either way, this would automatically book a feud between Becky and Bianca. 🙄 cannot wait for another Charlotte vs Becky at Survivor Series!
Was an alright show tbf, Certainly think it had its issues but it was decent. The returns where very obvious, Didn't expect Blair to get destroyed like that. Actually mostly gutted about Cena not getting the record, I think now is the time to do it but now Brock is back on the scene it might not even happen.
Charlotte again. Bianca got kofied. Goldberg challenging for wwe championship is already a sin. And lesnar returns because there is no other person in the roster that they have build up. Cena has passed the torch 2 times now. That’s the summary of 4 major title matches. Don’t you dare call this a good show. WWE sucks 💯
All they had to do was make Becky/Bianca non-title. That’s literally all you have to do. Or if you don’t like that, have Bianca issue an open challenge and lose that way, at least then Becky doesn’t get nuclear heat. Or, here’s an idea, PLAN AHEAD. If Sasha is questionable DAY OF, prepare a replacement match. Liv. Naomi. Triple threat with Zelina and Carmella. Idk, just anything but what they did here, both Bianca and Becky came out really bad.
@@Carolinafan85 like Charlotte deserves it right? Charlotte was also the one taking Ripley's NXT belt which did nothing for NXT's division except making a mockery of it.
Seth/Edge was such a good match, from the entrances to the psychological working of the neck to Edge avoiding the stomp. Priest/Sheamus was a sleeper hit, and the main event was fantastic. Still an average show, even with Lesnar and Lynch return. I also liked the filler segments with Nakamura and Jonny drip drip for some reason
I'm glad I didn't pay to see it. Most of the outcomes were what I expected. I would have liked at least one of the 2 big names to have won regardless of it being Cena or Goldberg (big names become unimpressive if they lose every match they're in). But, that's how it goes.
@@apassionatenerd.3564 I agree that they at least need to follow up with revenge for Goldberg's son but like @Azrael AO1 said, Goldberg has done his 2 matches for 2021. They only have 2 matches left on his contract and I can't see WWE "wasting" those 2 matches left on his contract in this year. So if they aren't going to waste those 2 matches, why in the He!! did they bother with messing with Goldberg's son? Dumb!
Darn, they did Bianca dirty in the streets. Lol. They needed way more build up between her and Becky. For all that, why even have Sasha involved in the first place? WWE be trippin. Smh
Really wanted to like this show, hated it. Edge vs Rollins deserves a rewatch - I couldn't get into it that much because of how drained I was from the Becky stuff.
Just poor booking/story telling. On paper at least 6 good matches to look forward too, 2 surprise former champion returns, 4 title changes, showcasing Olympic heros, biggest crowd in over 2 years and WWE made it so underwhelming. I hope I'm wrong but this will be a sample of how an 8hr wrestlemania will be next year.
@@andyfarmer876 You're right, on paper it sounds like it could have been awesome, but too many things were done in the worst way possible, making it difficult for me to care. Even the, "Roman will leave if he loses," stip took away from that match. I was watching that show actively thinking about how much more I'm gonna like All Out.
AEW: "We just got the single biggest return in years with the single biggest pop most people can remember." WWE: "Oh you like returns huh? Well we have Becky returning to squash an incredibly underrated Carmella. But also one of the hottest stars of the last year that fans naturally enjoy and she's going to get beat in less than thirty seconds. Also Brock is back. And all he did was set up either the fourth Brock v Roman feud or the fourth Brock v Cena feud. Also. A title reign returned for Charlotte as she beat two of the best up incoming stars. So yeah. Eat shit."
As someone who was there live, the Becky return was so insane and her winning got an insane pop too but also major confusion and shock. Like I knew WWE was more for moments but that was something else. I feel bad for everyone involved. No one came out better in that situation. Bianca, Becky, and Carmella all got uniquely put in a shit situation. Oh also watching a clip back of the return and such, the camera angles and audio mixing done for that was a whole different level of bad. I’m so glad I got to see it live to not have to deal with that.
This all felt just a little desperate, full of cheap pops, illogical booking and stuck in a time warp. I'm quite glad I binned off the network sometime ago, Not even worth £3.50
People hated Cena but even when Cena won he put people over I can’t name one person Roman put over since 2015. Maybe Rollins or Jay Uso but that’s it! I really hoped they let Cena win but it was literally no different from No Mercy 2017
To me, Becky's return was legitimately the worst thing of the night which is a shame. When her music hit I admittedly popped for it and then there was her challenging Bianca and it was genuinely a feeling of "Alright. Great. Let's go!" And then she beats Bianca with one punch, a quick slam and a 3 count. Awful. When you can have Eva Marie against Alexa "Ghost Bollocks" Bliss make for a better match than Bianca Belair and Becky Lynch then you've done fucked up big time.
I honestly thought it was one of the worst shit shows I've seen in a long time. I wanted to throw up. From the production, to the cringe child gimmicks and spots, to the set, to the actual wrestling and results and dead uninterested crowd. This was a mess
This show basically sums up why so many people are tired of WWE. Now the positives: Rated RK-Bro winning was great. It was a nice payoff to that story. Edge vs. Rollins was freaking awesome. Priest winning was absolutely the right call. So I did not hate the entire show. Bit WOW did they make some bad booking calls here: The Women were booked ATROCIOUS tonight. The Alexa Eva stuff sucked. They somehow managed to fuck up Becky’s return, which should have been impossible to screw up. Burying Bianca for no good reason. I normally hate the WWE vs. AEW nonsense. But In this case, it’s hard to ignore how perfectly AEW handled CM Punk’s return last night. With how badly WWE fucked up Becky’s return here. Charlotte wins again, why? You killed Rhea’s momentum at MITB by making her tap to Charlotte again, to do this Nikki story, just to make Nikki tap to Charlotte at the next PPV. Vince killed ALL of the good will from Mania in the span of like 30 minutes tonight. Bobby vs. Goldberg. Like I love the crowd being behind Lashley. But FFS, just have Lashley put him in the Hurt Lock and win. Not this lame crap. Roman vs. Cena. Roman won in exactly the way many thought he would. Then they want to do Brock vs. Roman AGAIN. Why? Just so many bad calls tonight.
Friday CM Punk is all elite. Saturday WWE worst summerslam in years. How u wana win rating war with such a terrible booking everything was bad Priest look injured on match ref call for quick finish. Why bury Bianca so much ? Why Charlotte champ again why literally 5 pointless segments during show everything was just bad and crowd was dead as f. why face Lesnar...
Great, so we are not done with Goldberg and we are not done with brock. Remind me again what either of these two did to get title shots, same for cena. Part timers just show up and instantly get title shots.
I enjoyed the pay-per-view from start to finish, especially the main event and what happened afterwards. The look on Paul Heyman's face when Brock Lesnar came down was surely a Kodak moment. Lol
I wonder if the original plan for Bianca/Sasha was that Becky Lynch would show up and the match would turn into a triple threat, and Becky would pin Sasha, saving Bianca from looking weak. Could have still done that with Carmella instead, but I guess they were crunched for time, knowing Roman's entrance would take twenty minutes. Returns that instantly win a belt never make any sense. She could have challenged the winner, like they had Cena do at the end of the last PPV. Vince must be panicking about Fox not being happy with Smackdown if he's in that much of a hurry to get Becky back in the main event.
When Drew swung the sword the way he did I couldn't help but imagine if the sword had accidentally slipped from his hands and it flew into the crowd....Fake or not, let's not swing a fucking sword around anymore, guys.
Bianca's loss was shameful, totally Kofi vs Brock 2.0. Why couldn't they just have Becky come out AFTER Bianca squashing Carmella and then setting up a match for the title in a week or two? Why rush to change the champion? Infuriating. Nikki losing was also awful but that story has been backwards from the start. The best part of the show was Bobby Lashley ruining the Goldberg family as fans called for blood, A+++. I laughed so hard during that.
@@garyblackburn3080 The PPV was good but the Alexa Bliss vs Eva Marie, Bobby Lashley vs Goldberg, and Jinder Mahal vs Drew McIntyre we’re the only low points of the show though I feel like Becky Lynch vs Bianca Belair should have been a full match
@@divine1196 Id love to be proven wrong of course but they had the perfect opportunity to let E cash in and they didn’t. Obviously they’re setting up a rematch lol
May I remind you that we are now comparing a pay per view, and a weekly TV. And the weekly TV literally compete or even better? Jesus WWE need to wake up before they got their ass kicked. As much as Vince doesn't want it, it's literally on now
I think everyone forgets that Edge still had Rollins arm wrapped in his legs when he locked in the rear naked choke. I thought that made it extra nasty, but everyone else was like “oh, it’s a sleeper…” shrug 🤷🏽♂️
With a ponytail like that, he'll probably announce that he's changed his name to "Brooke Lesnar" and that he's not there for Roman Reigns. He's there for Becky Lynch. That's my prediction.
it really bummed me out how they made me pop hard for Becky Lynch and then proceed to ruin it by showing their inept booking by squashing Bianca. They totally Kofi’ed her! RIDICULOUS! ONE MOVE? come on! who booked this garbage?
I agree about the brock face turn. And I tilt my hat to what Paul and Roman have done. You have to be a HUGE heel in order for a man who left a heel, came back months later and just enter the ring with roman and back him down, and now he is face. Kudos to all the work Roman and Paul and the usos' did.

All these wrestling channels are gonna have to update their "worst/unnecessary squash matches" lists 😐
I actually really liked the Priest Vs. Sheamus match. Both guys did a serviceable job and the whole thing just felt like a classic, old school mid card match.
Sheamus tends to be pretty good at delivering consistent big fella vs big fella slapping meat type matches.
I totally agree with you, the US title looks like a World Championship... so treat it like if it was a world title. Even make a type stipulation that would be like a main event for a world title, even though it's not. That would elevate and make things interesting
Priest vs Shemus and Edge vs Seth only good matches. So wanted a double RKO on Omas
Sheamus always works stiff but in a good, safe way, i love watching his matches.

Charlotte wins again, why? You killed Rhea’s momentum at MITB by making her tap to Charlotte again, to do this Nikki story, just to make Nikki tap to Charlotte at the next PPV. Vince killed ALL of the good will from Mania in the span of like 30 minutes tonight.
Bobby vs. Goldberg. Like I love the crowd being behind Lashley. But FFS, just have Lashley put him in the Hurt Lock and win.
Not this lame crap.
Roman vs. Cena. Roman won in exactly the way many thought he would. Then they want to do Brock vs. Roman AGAIN. Why?
Just so many bad calls tonight.
Xactly cena should've won, I mean why the fuck did they make this mega event so predictable and terrible
@@anshumananand9334 After Friday's Promo you still expect that Cena would've won lol dude. It was clear AF that Cena wasn't gonna win.
A baby could predict this whole card right in 5 mins
Friday CM Punk is all elite.
Saturday WWE worst summerslam in years.
How u wana win rating war with such a terrible booking everything was bad
Priest look injured on match ref call for quick finish.
Why bury Bianca so much ?
Why Charlotte champ again
why literally 5 pointless segments during show
everything was just bad and crowd was dead as f.
why face Lesnar...
I’m with you on that one, Jack.
They dropped the ball giving Becky the belt like that. Just f'ing stupid.
Great, so we are not done with Goldberg and we are not done with brock. Remind me again what either of these two did to get title shots, same for cena. Part timers just show up and instantly get title shots.
Dominic scored the Three Amigos, a tribute to his biological father Eddie Guerrero.
Huh
Really disappointing PPV.
Thanks for coming, Bianca.
WWE Women division is dead because of Charlotte & Becky taking spotlights except NXT
NXT sucks
@@divine1196 NXT is great. You have shitty taste.
@@Sh4dowgale How many stars do they have
@@divine1196 I think they fired all of their stars.
@@actionjackson4982 oh that's a shame
I enjoyed the pay-per-view from start to finish, especially the main event and what happened afterwards. The look on Paul Heyman's face when Brock Lesnar came down was surely a Kodak moment. Lol
Personally, I consider it the worst ppv of 2021
It wasn’t that great but it definitely could have been a lot worst
It's was an Average PPV only certain matches were good.
I wonder if the original plan for Bianca/Sasha was that Becky Lynch would show up and the match would turn into a triple threat, and Becky would pin Sasha, saving Bianca from looking weak. Could have still done that with Carmella instead, but I guess they were crunched for time, knowing Roman's entrance would take twenty minutes. Returns that instantly win a belt never make any sense. She could have challenged the winner, like they had Cena do at the end of the last PPV. Vince must be panicking about Fox not being happy with Smackdown if he's in that much of a hurry to get Becky back in the main event.
“Rollercoaster of emotions but not in a good way” might be my go-to bit of review for anything now.
When Drew swung the sword the way he did I couldn't help but imagine if the sword had accidentally slipped from his hands and it flew into the crowd....Fake or not, let's not swing a fucking sword around anymore, guys.
Bianca's loss was shameful, totally Kofi vs Brock 2.0. Why couldn't they just have Becky come out AFTER Bianca squashing Carmella and then setting up a match for the title in a week or two? Why rush to change the champion? Infuriating. Nikki losing was also awful but that story has been backwards from the start. The best part of the show was Bobby Lashley ruining the Goldberg family as fans called for blood, A+++. I laughed so hard during that.
WWE PPV's just get worse, and worse, and worse, and worse. At this point they're not even a shit TNA PPV.
I don’t like Reigns but I have to admit, they were some of the best close calls I’ve ever seen so for that I’ll congratulate him
I was pissed when he kicked outta the Super AA it was the same Finish from No Mercy 2017
Thought the narration was on point in this video good work Jack
Becky vs Bianca could be longer but you know, we need Alexa vs Eva and Drew vs Jinder at Summerslam, both the most anticipating match of the night
Like seriously, cena should have won the Universal championship
Wish Becky lunch would’ve gone to raw to take the title from nicki ash. Would have made more sense than Bianca losing her title.
I was literally waiting for this to be posted lol
Bianca vs Becky was the dumbest booking besides Alexa Bliss.
Becky Lynch squashing Bianca Belair like was such a weird booking decision.
I was there and your gonna have to trust me…. It was soooooo LOUD
Don't matter with how obviously bad this was....
@@garyblackburn3080 The PPV was good but the Alexa Bliss vs Eva Marie, Bobby Lashley vs Goldberg, and Jinder Mahal vs Drew McIntyre we’re the only low points of the show though I feel like Becky Lynch vs Bianca Belair should have been a full match
Set up for Goldberg to beat Lashley at Saudi Arabia, that’s what.
No God please no
@@divine1196 Id love to be proven wrong of course but they had the perfect opportunity to let E cash in and they didn’t. Obviously they’re setting up a rematch lol
Then big e will finally get his match against Goldberg by cashing in… and based on tonight’s booking… lose -_-
@@edwardtorai3545 Yh but Gage has more balls cause he actually took a hurt lock
Becky Lynch had a Hogan like shovel out tonight my God. Bayley and Sasha builds, Charlotte and Becky destroys.
Straight facts
May I remind you that we are now comparing a pay per view, and a weekly TV. And the weekly TV literally compete or even better? Jesus WWE need to wake up before they got their ass kicked. As much as Vince doesn't want it, it's literally on now
I think everyone forgets that Edge still had Rollins arm wrapped in his legs when he locked in the rear naked choke. I thought that made it extra nasty, but everyone else was like “oh, it’s a sleeper…” shrug 🤷🏽♂️
With a ponytail like that, he'll probably announce that he's changed his name to "Brooke Lesnar" and that he's not there for Roman Reigns. He's there for Becky Lynch. That's my prediction.
Brock Lesnar has overstayed his welcome so hard on his last run I can't get excited for his return at all.
Brock destroyed Cena off the air
The good thing about this sumerslam is edge pinning Seth,rkbro winning tag team titles and Brock returning to wwe
it really bummed me out how they made me pop hard for Becky Lynch and then proceed to ruin it by showing their inept booking by squashing Bianca. They totally Kofi’ed her! RIDICULOUS! ONE MOVE? come on! who booked this garbage?
Edge V seth was by far the best WWE match of 2021 so far, jack I guess you need to rewatch the match
Cena needs to be an ic champ. It's the last one he needs to be a grand slam champion
that booking of bianca was disgusting
The only way that lynch/Charlotte angle makes any sense is if they are trying to build up a survivor series match.. maybe..?
biggest return of last decade?!!!!!!
My hope is that it leads to heel bianca, She was a great NXT heel. or at the very least a cool program between her and becky.
Jack sounds so happy that Becky is back
I agree about the brock face turn. And I tilt my hat to what Paul and Roman have done. You have to be a HUGE heel in order for a man who left a heel, came back months later and just enter the ring with roman and back him down, and now he is face. Kudos to all the work Roman and Paul and the usos' did.
Its been a year and a few months since Brock has been in wwe
I think Xavier chose Scott Hall / Razor Ramon because he used to be Oozing Machismo. And I think that goes well with the drip stick scenario.
Funniest part was goldberg got booed and lashley got cheers... I know they didn't think that was gonna happen
CM Punk
