**FINAL ANALYSIS**

While I was not eager for the card itself, the show delivered in terms of high quality matches. I thought every match on the main card delivered well and given enough time. I was surprised by some of the finishes, some that disappointed me a bit, but all in all, the show was much better than I anticipated. I will go into more details in my wins and fails.

Wins
- Sheamus vs. Cesaro: This will be on both lists, but as far as the match was, it was their best match by far. They got lots of time, lots of physicality, and lots of spots different from their other matches. This match and the main event tied as the best matches of the night. 
- TJ Perkins vs. Brian Kendrick: The very first Cruiserwieght match on a Raw Brand PPV, and the very first match of TJ Perkins on the main roster. In my opinion, TJ Perkins will be the future of the WWE, not just in the Cruiserweight division. I always liked Kendrick, although I am not a fan of his new finisher, the Captain's Hook, as it just looks like another headlock. At one point in the match, I thought he had put it on TJ, but Cole said he has him in a headlock, and I was thinking, it doesn't look different.
- WWE Universal Championship match: Owens proved tonight that he can deliver as the champion of the brand, if not the company. That was a physical match, and has such a presence in the ring. He and Seth delivered such a great match.  

Fails
- Sheamus vs. Cesaro: The finish was just dumb. After such a great match, and even after Cesaro nearly killed himself in the ill-worded Suicide Dive, if the match wasn't stopped there, why stop it after a clothesline over the barricade. We have seen that move thousands of time and they never stopped a match for that. It was my only gripe for that match. 
- Tag Team Championship Match: It was the only match I thought was disappointing. No offense to the New Day which I like, but they needed to lose tonight. The match started great in my opinion, with the attack on Big E on the outside before it started, but then, they still managed to finish and leave the ring like they didn't break a sweat. Karl and Luke needs to up their game as well. The comedy route is not for them. If they would have won that match after attacking both Big E and Xavier and hitting the Magic Killer within 30 seconds, I would have loved this match
- WWE Women's Championship: Compared to their match in NXT, and many other matches before, this one did not deliver. It felt liek it had no rhythm to it, and I felt it ended awkwardly. Not the best women's match they've had. 

Honorable mentions
Win: Zayn/Jericho on their great match
Fail: No Triple H yet. I was expecting him to show up

Well that is all for tonight!! Thanks for reading!
