WWE RAW Women’s Title Match
Bianca Belair (c) vs. Alexa Bliss

A long match that ended up making Bliss look strong and tough. The end continues the story of her losing her mind like she had before. It worked in moments here and will be interesting to see what happens. I can’t see her taking the belt back or anything. 

2.5 / 5

Music City Street Fight
Elias vs. Solo Sikoa

This was a mixed bag. Clearly Solo isn’t losing his streak yet so this was a clear one for who would win. Some of the spots too made it feel more like a comedy gimmick match than a street fight. It did have it its moments though and Elias sells some moves fantastically. Just could have been a few minutes shorter. 

3 / 5

Six Man Tag Team Match
Kevin Owens & The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford) vs. The Bloodline (Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso & Sami Zayn)

Another win to continue on for The Bloodline. Sami winning is good since he lost before. Having Ford be off because of what happened to Bianca earlier too was a nice touch. 

3 / 5

Singles Match
Dexter Lumis vs. Chad Gable (w/Otis)

Gable is super talented in ring but never wins and isn’t particularly interesting. Meanwhile Lumis just isn’t fun to watch at all. 

1 / 5

Non Title Tag Team Match
Becky Lynch & Mia Yim vs. Damage CTRL (Dakota Kai & IYO SKY)

Having the heels win but Becky not taking the pin is smart. A good match though with 4 women who can go together. 

2.75 / 5

WWE United States Title Match
Austin Theory (c) vs. Seth Rollins

A fantastic match with some great story in it. Rollins selling the knee was great here and the constant close falls towards the end had everyone in. Theory winning dirty worked great and was something Seth has done numerous times before. 

4 / 5
