Is it just me or does every match on this PPV feel like 5 minutes or less? Aside from Roman Reigns and Lashley, every match felt pre-maturely ended. I hated how early KO vs. Strowman ended, it was starting out like a classic. HIAC would have been better.
And despite the horrible reaction of the crowd, that Reigns vs Lashley match has been the most satisfying so far. It wasn't extreme rules, but I enjoyed it more than the other matches so far.
Still to go, the Iron Man match and Rusev Day.
I mean, I liked the Attitude era for a lot of things it started - but leave the past be the past; it's 2018, not 1998. As much as people say they want the Attitude era back... go back and actually watch it - the 10% gold is what people remember, but there was an enormous amount of garbage - particularly in the 97-99 era; 2000 and 2001 were actually really good, though.
Also branding the PPV "Extreme Rules" when the only extreme rules match was a 5 minute women's match was bullshit... and it wasn't all that extreme. The LAST PPV was 5X more extreme than this. This is their idea of what an ECW-style show should be?
Michael Hayes probably booked and produced this.
