How dead was the crowd last night, too? Unsure whether it was nerves over the whole ISIS speculation, but they were so quiet. It was especially noticeable during the Charlotte/Paige match, which was easily one of the pair's worst ever.
Reigns and Ambrose were tearing the house down, the match should have gone on longer imo. I was dreading a sheamus cash in, guy just doesn't interest me at all. Although the majority of fans in arena wanted Ambrose to win, I'm damn sure they would rather reigns than sheamus. With the fireworks and confetti coming down I didn't think there'd be a cash in tbh. Takers match was good I guess, expecting Sting to show up was out of hope rather than expectation lol. Felt like takers last match but hope he makes it to this mania.

Match was cut short to make room for all the antics after, so I knew a cash-in was coming as soon as Reigns pinned Dean. Such a shame to cut the match short.
The Sheamus cash-in will lead to such a failure of a title run. We've gone from Rollins who, despite being badly booked, was a superb worker and a refreshing champion. He was new, ground-breaking and carried the company at the start of every RAW for about seven months straight.
Now, we've got a stale character and stale gimmick. It makes no sense. Dean should have turned, become the champion, and gained traction as a heel. That would have seemed more organic than this scenario, where Vince and the Creative team are ramming Reigns as a babyface down our throats.

The New Days Power Of Positivity isn't working on you, eh.
Can't wait Mania. Sheamus vs. Randy Orton main event, with John Cena winning the rumble and being shoe-horned into a triple threat match where he emerges victorious.

**** sake, WWE.
Here's to hoping Reigns invokes his rematch clause and recaptures the title. Never gonna happen though unfortunately.
