NOT PERFECT,BUT SO VERY NEAR.
So after wrestlemania comes backlash and this is in PUERTO RICO,can it live up to the written card?Well it certainly tries.One heck of a start to the show as BIANCA BELAIR defends against IYO SKY.The fans were clearly cheering for IYO and there was even booing for Bianca.The match was solid with loads of impressive moments,both women looked brilliant.I would have changed the end,but that is a personal thing,the match was a must watch.SETH ROLLINS has a match with OMOS and though it came out of nowhere,it does just about work.No it in't great,but it's perfectly fine and better than the mess it could have been.A tripple threat as AUSTIN THEORY defends the U.S. title against BRONSEN REED and BOBBY LASHLEY.It's a short but sweet match,not long enough to be special but enjoyable.RHEA RIPLEY defends against challenger ZELINA VEGA who gets a massive pop from the crowd,which is a lovely moment.The match though fine feels very much like a filler,disappointing,but the feel from the crowd for ZELINA made it worthwhile.Hero of the show BAD BUNNY gets his hands on DAMIAN PRIEST in a street fight.So can Bunny pull of a great match? Sure does. Cracking match full of great moments.Certainly a must watch and boy were the crowd behind Bunny,tthe atmosphere was awesome.THE BLOODLINE take on ZAMI SAYN and KEVIN OWEN and MATT RIDDLE. This was a great match but the story is getting a bit dulll now and though worth watching,we need something new.The main event ahould have been the street fight,sure,but it still worked,just.CODY RHODES takes on BROCK LESNAR though why Brock turned on Cody is never explained.This could have been a 2 minute squash,so i was very happy to see a cool match. Brock gets busted open pretty badly and no one dares tell him to get it sorted so we have blood.It was a pretty good match,just not what should have been the main event.The event as a whole is absolutely worth watching.Some matches could have been greatly improved but when it was good it was brilliant stuff!
