BP: This was the perfect way to handle this match and it was really entertaining. It got everyone involved the right way, so it wasn’t too overbooked, and it saves room for another rematch. (I’m thinking Hell In A Cell, maybe skipping over Night of Champions).

BP: This was a good follow up to the last match. It was a good fight, with a few brutal looking spots, but not overdone. Bray’s theatrics and mannerisms are still a great highlight on the shows.
