Hell In A Cell Match - Jeff Hardy vs. Randy Orton:
Awesome opener. Orton slowly beating down Hardy, being highly focused on the back of Hardy and inflicting more and more damage on it using leather belts and chairs etc. And when he used the screwdriver I thought I was watching a Jun Kasai deathmatch. It was gnarly. And Jeff did what Jeff did, jumped off something crazy. Good match with some vile moments which helped in a situation like this where you want to save stuff for the main event. Loved psycho Orton. ***½
WWE SmackDown Women's Title Match - Charlotte Flair (c) vs. Becky Lynch:
This was a fine match. Good exchange of technical holds throughout the match. It just lacked the heat and intensity the feud was seemingly built upon. The feud ain’t over yet so it’s not a big deal. **½
WWE RAW Tag Team Title Match - Dolph Ziggler & Drew McIntyre (c) vs. The Shield (Dean Ambrose & Seth Rollins):
The finished obviously ruled and they had a great finishing stretch. It took a while, around 10-15 minutes or so (unsure of the time) but it turned into a good match with the crowd loving it. But it was very boring for a lot of the match, nothing wrong with it but they seemed to be going through the motions for large parts of the match. **½
WWE Title Match - AJ Styles (c) vs. Samoa Joe:
Decent match. Loads of tension felt but the lack of crowd interaction harmed the match. Some parts of the match was in silence. Wasn’t into the finish, to be honest but it means the feud continues to great! ***¼
Brie Bella & Daniel Bryan vs. Maryse & The Miz:
Really enjoyed this match. It was not surprising that the match was at its best when bryan and Miz were facing off. Thankfully it was like that for most of the match. The crowd was crazy into this match as well. Had very little expectations but they exceeded them. ***½
WWE RAW Women's Title Match - Ronda Rousey (c) vs. Alexa Bliss:
I thought this was really good. Bliss did a great job at tagretting the ribs and pelvis area. Ronda did a great job at selling it too. The comebacks were a bit corny but fine enough. Ronda is really coming along on her own. Bliss was great in the match, IMO. ***
WWE Universal Title Hell In A Cell Match - Roman Reigns (c) vs. Braun Strowman:
I didn’t like this at all really. I found myself disinterested pretty quickly and they never brought me back until the Brock bits which were awesome. Don’t know what else to say. *½
