I'd say average is being generous. I care more about seeing a good match than the person I like more winning. Neither of the title matches were good, even if the results were right. Brock Lesnar could have had a rematch without winning the Rumble. Especially having him eliminate the one guy who has actually beaten him over the past few years. Ronda Rousey winning was fine on its own. If they had one predictable finish where a top guy/girl won and one where someone new got a big moment, that would have been ok. Having two people now going to Wrestlemania to face people they've already faced at Wrestlemania... well, kind of hard to get excited for that.

Maryse and Miz vs Beth Phoenix and Edge was the match of the night, which kind of says it all.

Yeah, I probably exaggerated on that lol

And ya the Maryse/Miz VS Beth/Edge match was a highlight for me too (though like you mentioned, that wasnt saying much).

I guess the next major PPV event will be the Crown Jewel Elimination chamber event. Wonder how they'll screw that one up.

Well, by having it in Saudi Arabia for one thing. I don't know if I'm 100% against that, but it puts a cloud over the whole thing. 

I'm guessing they'll have a chamber match to see who faces Charlotte (or Becky although I think Rousey vs Lynch makes more sense), and for who faces Lashley. Could be good. I think Lesnar v. Reigns is the match that has to happen at Mania and Becky vs  Rousey could be good if they go that way, which makes more sense than Charlotte vs Rousey. Hopefully they'll use the other two matches to get some newer faces big moments.

Again though, this left a bad taste in my mouth.Hopefully next show is better.
