No, not at all. Having Roman kick out of a Styles Clash on a steel chair (after having received another a couple of minutes before) was total bull****, especially when Roman just hits one spear and gets the pin. They just want Roman to be the new superman. Rollins could have attacked either guy and people would have gone nuts

Nathan, they had to do it like that to set up Rollins. And don't forget, Styles got his arse kicked the whole match until the Club showed up.

---

Did he though? He dragged reigns around the arena throwing him in **** for half the match before being thrown into the tables

Reigns is the most protected superstar of all time. Not even cena is booked this strong.

People would have been more excited to see him take styles I bet

Sure. I'll be Roman, and you'll be Heath Slater

It has to be Rollins vs Reigns. WWE creative is actually getting it right for once. They see the hatred for Reigns and realized how much people liked Rollins. This is going to be an amazing feud to watch for the next three months leading up to Rollins winning at Summerslam. I know everyone hates the way Reigns wins but they do that for EVERY face holding the title. Try and remember a face that was completely dominant for an entire title match. You can't. They are always come from behind, outta nowhere wins. Only heels dominate like that. But like I said, the WWE just got a whole lot more interesting. Money in the Bank will be a triple threat match with Styles, Reigns and Rollins. And then in July, we will see some sort of Reigns vs Rollins match and then Summerslam will change it all. And in the meantime Cena will compete against Rusev again. C

Rollins vs Styles makes no sense. Styles vs Balor will be what's next.

They both make sense. Styles and Rollins fought in the indies and they could have played that up like with Owens and Zayn. You'd just rather see Roman and I'd rather see AJ

AJ is a really good wrestler but he's brutal on the mic.

Id like a long story line of KO and Sami becoming tag team partners by end of year, and Rollins getting the title back at next ppv

Actually, I want to see Styles vs Balor more than anything. The Rollins vs Reigns is just icing on the cake. Both make for a better storyline. If you had Rollins vs Styles, where would that leave Reigns? Taking on Cena? Hell no. Who wants to watch that crap again??

Here's my breakdown for Extreme Rules:

Big Cass vs Dudleys - Not an actual match. And I understand they're trying to make due without Enzo, but I'm getting a little tired of throwing Big Cass out there every week. Hopefully they just did it to give a nod to the NJ crowd - C-

No DQ - Dolph Ziggler vs Baron Corbin - I missed it, but I didn't miss it - INCOMPLETE

Tornado Tag Team - Usos vs Gallows & Anderson - Decent match overall, glad the Club won. - C+

U.S. Championship - Rusev vs Kalisto (c)
Make Rusev Strong Again! And they definitely did. Lana's hot. - B

Tag Team Championships - The New Day (c) vs VaudeVillains
Decent match but obviously very weird they had TND cheat to win with Kofi interfering a tad bit. I would have liked to have seen the VV go over, but I'm okay with TND keeping the title and breaking the record for most consecutive days holding the titles. This'll give VV something to hang onto, so I don't think we've seen the end of this storyline. At least until Enzo comes back. - B

Fatal 4-way - The Miz (c) vs Kevin Owens vs Cesaro vs Sami Zayn
Freaking amazing match! They made everyone look incredibly strong (except Miz) but it's a tie between Sami and Cesaro on who looked the best. Cesaro kicked out so much and it seemed like he spun the Miz forever. Sami's helluva kick to KO right at the bell was greatness. Also his near win when he took out Cesaro (I'm still trying to find the .gif but this move was awesome!). My 2 complaints are the camera work at the end where we very nearly missed the pinfall, and the Miz actually retaining the title. I can't be too mad about the Miz winning because of the superb quality of the match, but I would rather have had anyone else win. So naturally he won. MOTY candidate - A+

Asylum Cage Match - Jericho vs Ambrose - Man this drug on for. ev. er. The only redeeming quality to this match was Jericho taking the bump on the thumbtacks (and hey! we saw some blood!). But besides that, this was a very underwhelming match. - C-

Women's Championship Match - Charlotte (c) vs Natalya - This match was a little underwhelming too. We knew something was going to happen to allow Charlotte to win, and I guess they made Dana Brooke part of this new Flair group. They set it up that whoever actually beats Charlotte to get the title will get a huge pop. - C+

WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match - Extreme Rules
Roman Reigns (c) vs AJ Styles
So I'm going to try and give a fair review of the match itself and not the outcome. I actually thought it was a pretty damn good match. Didn't mind the march around the crowd, AJ took bumps off of two announcers tables (which seems to be WWE writers go to move now), and he went crazy with the chair at the end. But I can't help but say I thought it was bull**** that Roman could withstand 2 'Style Clash' with one of them being onto the chair, being hit multiple times with a chair, a tag team finisher (when G&A came in), and all of that within 3 minutes of eachother. And yet Roman speared AJ once to end it and pinned him. I'm really tired of Roman and how they're writing him. And JBL, stop telling us "whether you love him or hate him, he draws a huge response!". NO! They're not booing Roman, they're booing the writers pushing him and making him look strong af. Horrible champion so far and it's becoming very apparent to everyone that he infact cannot wrestle. Hope Seth takes it from him at MITB. That'll give Roman a rematch at SummerSlam, where he'll lose again. Then send him to the mid-card and have him feud with Brock. Just get him out of the title picture, make him look a little weak, and give the crowd some time to come around to him again. But I'm afraid it might be a little too late.

Oh yeah, Seth Rollins came back after the match and pedigreed Roman. Big pop from the crowd, but will be even bigger on Raw tonight when they play his music.

Match - B+
Roman retaining the title - D-

Extreme Rules Overall - B
Power Rankings:
1a. Cesaro
1b. Sami Zayn
3. Rusev
4. Seth Rollins
5. AJ

Adam Rose is gone....saw that one coming a mile away

Rollins/Roman at MITB. Cool. Intended to see who fights who for the next 4 weeks.

Sami was good
Sheamus....snore

New day with some impressive moves. Triple kick in the corner was good. Completly forgot social outcast was a thing.

Also Shane o Mac tonight. Really interested in that.

WWE.....WTF are you thinking? Rollins comes back with an incredible pop and can be your legitimate #1 face. It's easy...quit force-feeding us the Roman Reigns Debacle.

Yeah but Roman is "the guy."

That's so awesome right?! And as they said last night...love him(5%) or hate him(95%), everyone has a reaction.

So it totally makes sense to continue and force him on everyone!

Roman seriously needs to go Hulk Hogan like heel in the NWO. He needs to be an enormous ahole. It'll work because people already hate him.

I wish Stone Cold was interviewing Shane but should still be interesting

2 predictions

1. Y2J wins
2. If I'm wrong and he loses, this ends his time on this stint and he disappears for 6-8 months. Think he was ready to a month or so ago but then Bray got hurt

When talking about moves that have been made completely irrelevant the walls of Jericho has to be at the top of the list. Nobody has tapped to that in 7 years.

Well there goes my second idea

Boo!

So does this mean Balor will come up and have support from gallows and Anderson?

AJ is a good wrestler but I'm happy he's falling down. Not enough room at the top now that Rollins is back.

Hope KO wins MITB but my buddy thinks Ambrose will win to inject himself into the Roman/Rollins storyline

Shane hates Triple H

I'm just happy Enzo is back!

Pretty meh show last night for me. I thought the MitB qualifiers were all pretty predictable. I did think the Charlotte stuff was interesting, but that may just have been me. I'm curious as to where they go with it. Glad that Enzo is back, also.

That segment went on too long. And the crowd absolutely killed her. Also I don't like seeing ric cry. Not because it's ric haha but because it's an old man blubbering and crying. Weird. Now why they chose Dana Brooke to be the female counterpart to Charolette? Idk. Maybe they'll have a strong girl match.

I'm curious on who's Gunna fight who up until MITB as far as Roman and Rollins go.

Agreed that it went on too long. I'm more wondering (hoping) if Charlotte is trying to start a *new* horsewomen as heels or if Ric tries to do that with some of the other women as faces.

Puts on foil hat...ric debuts bayley at SummerSlam to take down charolette.

The only reason Dana Brooke is with Charlotte is because Emma is injured. Dana was going to be Emma's backup, so to speak, like she was in NXT. They didnt want to send her back down to NXT for something that she had no effect over, so they paired her with Charlotte. This also allows them to not use Ric has much.
