⭐️Kayhan: “Nice start to the show. So they’ve begun the march toward Jade & Bianca’s breakup. The tease of both of them wanting a title shot is a good start to breaking them up. Liv did FANTASTIC heel work getting Bianca to attack her. That’s as good as it gets… The impromptu battle royal was a nice idea. Nice job Adam Pierce. That one deserved a mic drop… Liv & Raquel eliminating Jade & Bianca was perfect. Idk what they’re gonna do with Io Sky, but I guess Damage CTRL could use the win.”

⭐️Kayhan: “I don’t think New Day was that great to have some special break up story. The way they’re carrying on with this!🙄 New Day was prominent in a very bad era of WWE and had/have a horrible gimmick. I was annoying by Xavier & Kofi arguing, although I give them credit for memorizing their lines. Other than that, I was happy when their interview got cut off by the Wyatts.”

⭐️Kayhan: “This is wrestling! 👏 This is wrestling! 👏😆 Oh man. Poor Miz… Well even though I enjoy this type of wresting, I gotta point out the logical flaws. None of the comentators even mentioned or commented on this crazy wild thing. Nor did they give any reason for the New Day promo getting cut off and what they said at the end of their promo.”

⭐️Vlad: "This was funny.”

⭐️Kayhan: “I thought it very interesting Gunther’s somber mood. Kinda seems like they want to turn him Babyface. So accepting that Cody was the better man. If I didn’t know any better this could be the start of a face turn… Reed causing havoc in the main event was spot on… I kinda wanted Dom to win. I thought he woulda had an interesting little program with Gunther, but I guess they’re going a more serious rout. That being said, if there’s a face turn for Gunther, how bout a heel turn for Priest?! ‘Cause he’s been a pretty boring Babyface.”

⭐️Vlad: "👍 For Reeds interference.”

⭐️Kayhan: “If Rey was there why didn’t he just come out with Dragon Lee? What was he doing in the back that was so important. These guys cost LWO all the time and they always cheat. I think they sold out the logic here for a cheap surprise pop.”
