[Cleavy]

so I guess all you need to do to break the 5 match PLE format is to be a rich Saudi King/Prince???

 

[RossFC]

Orton vs Owens, Rollins vs Reed and Cody vs Gunther the matches I'm looking forward to the most.

 

[nobbyiscool]

I'm sad to miss Bronson's big break out match, but that card certainly aint the one that will be breaking my Blood Money duck.

 

[Cleavy]

so Tiffany to cash in MITB and win the Women's title AND the Crown Jewel title?

WWE Crown Jewel Champions to receive ‘massive ring,’ title belts will stay in Saudi

WWE’s inaugural Crown Jewel Champions won’t be bringing their new title belts home with them

that's not as exciting

 

[Blackhawk42]

Been a bitter-sweet week for Australian wrestlers.

Buddy Matthews, Kyle Fletcher and Mark Davis all had mic time on AEW Dynamite in the first hour of the show.

Toni Storm will be starring in a Mildred Burke biopic.

Rhea Ripley has a broken orbital bone.

Indi Hartwell got released.

Now Bronson Reed has the biggest match of his career. I'm confident it will absolutely deliver.

Also, this is the best WWE PLE card on paper in ages. I am personally partial to the 'more matches' format, so I'm interested to see if this will be a Saudi only thing, or a slight change in how they produce all PLE's moving forward.

The 4 women tag match will be meh

you would assume it's for the "major" PLEs

So much for Tiffy Time

 

[RossFC]

So over this Bloodline stuff. That tag match sucked. As did Liv vs Jax.

Women's Tag match was ok.

Bronson Reed badly needs a big scalp, he's lost to both Strowman and Rollins now. Wish he won that.

Disappointed Owens/Orton didn't take place. That brawl could have been done on a Smackdown before the PLE.

US Title 3 way and the main event were both solid, would give the US Title match the edge of match of the night.

Overall that was a bad show. Contender for worst PLE of the year.

Agreed with most of that. Both matches that sucked just felt like it was 99% about the storyline and 1% about wrestling and that was the wrong balance for both.

Womens tag match was fantastic and better then OK.

Reed needs a win badly. He should have beaten Rollins

Apparently Owens was a bit banged up from a dune buggy accident so suspect he wasnt able to go for a full match.

US title match was underwhelming to me. Main event was very good and match of the night

Id give it a C- type grading. 2 of the biggest 3 matches got lost in telling the story and forgetting to wrestle

 

[CasuallyDressed]

Could they just put someone over Rollins once... lol.

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Could they just put someone over Rollins once... lol.

Especially now when he needs to slow down for a bit. I would have had Reed squash him basically

 

[RossFC]

How come Cole kept saying that no Rhodes has ever won a championship outside the USA?

Dusty was a tag champ with Dick Murdoch in Australia, and Cody was WCPW Internet Champ in England.

Also just noticed that Kevin Owens was wearing a Cowboy Bob Orton shirt lol.

 

[Cleavy]

need a better picture, but first impression is that the rings look pretty meh

 

[YeoShuey]

Could they just put someone over Rollins once... lol.

They won’t even put someone over their golden boy Cody. Not even the other World Champ Gunther.

I’m not happy with 80% of the results on this card and thankfully didn’t watch the event.

 

[Ry009]

Yep, piss poor event. Not Nia's biggest fan but should have won against Liv. End of Bloodline match was stupid. Cody/Gunther deserved more than roll up reversal pin for the win.

Biggest issue for me was Rollins going over Bronson. Like Gable, undid a lot of good work building him up.

 

[nobbyiscool]

After such a good, intricate, detailed first 4 years of the Bloodline story, this second act stinks. They're rushing it to get to War Games at Survivor Series without really bothering to explain why Jey and Sami would forgive Roman, when Roman didn't even apologise.

 

[burge13]

Disappointed in the bloodline match

Reed should have won

Wasnt really fussed about the other matches. Especially when you knew Gunther wasn't winning

Saudi starting to get some atmosphere at their sports at least (boxing and wwe). Maybe they'll grow up enough to let the women wear their ring attire rather than pyjamas soon
