While, I'm not a huge Cena fan, I believe this match, silence a lot of his haters. It was a fantastic fight that will live down in history. That title goes to AJ Styles Vs John Cena for the WWE Championship. It has some jarring plot-holes, like how is Reigns ribs and chest can be, in so much pain, during the match, if he's wearing a bulletproof vest and how ridiculous was it, for him to able to kicked out of a Superman Punch with brass knuckles. It was an alright match, but it did seem like WWE is trying to sell Mattel's Crash Cage Playset, more than the story logic of the match, itself. Next, Kevin Owens defended the WWE Universal Championship against Roman Reigns in a No-Disqualification match, with United States Champion Chris Jericho suspended above the ring in a shark cage. Hopefully, this would stop the hot potatoes that been happening with the title, as of late. Heel Neville is the best thing to happen to the cruiserweight division since the Cruiserweight Classic. After that, Rich Swann defended the WWE Cruiserweight Championship against Neville in a match that I found to be OK. Also, I don't mind the storyline PPV streak that WWE is going with Charlotte, but however, it will get, pretty predictable, in the next couple of months. Even if that division seem down, at least, the women division has been steady with Charlotte Vs Bayley starting the main show. Don't get me wrong, the match itself was good enough to be on the main card, but the title change barely justify how much momentum the 'RAW' tag team members and division has lost, since the draft in July. Added that to how much, I dislike the idea of Cesaro & Sheamus, teaming up, and you got a match, I really couldn't get into, even if a title match was indeed on a preshow. Because of this, I found their lukewarm tag matches to be mediocre, at best. Second off, I didn't like, how WWE has misused Anderson & Gallows by having them, look weak, the last several months. One, I never like, WWE lame attempt to capitalize on a NJPW promotion's stable, as I found their 'Club' to be a total rip-off. Anyways, this brings us to the last match on the preshow, a 'Raw' Tag Team Championship match between the champions, Sheamus & Cesaro Vs 'The Club' (Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows), which I wasn't really looking forward to, because of two reasons. While, this match was mostly a squash, this ladies feud deserves to be, on the main show. Talking about the ladies of 'RAW', it's sad to see, how far, Sasha Banks has fallen since December PPV 'Roadblock: End of the Line' and furthermore, Nia Jax who had a great run in NXT, but so overlook in the main roster. While it wasn't terrible by any means, it was simply there for the sake of getting the 'Smackdown' women on the show, so it doesn't look like, all of the talent in that division went to the 'RAW' show.
A mishmash of a whole bunch of individual story lines, being put into one with a strange bed-fellows match that will solve nothing, until the next single match. Without spoiling the match, too much, this is exactly what you expected from a preshow women tag match. Let's start with the first pre-show match, Becky Lynch, Nikki Bella, and Naomi facing 'Smackdown' Women's Champion Alexa Bliss, Mickie James, and Natalya in a three women tag. Sadly, the pre-show matches weren't part of that of the deal. The card featured some of the best entertaining matches, I have ever saw in one show. Hailed once again from the Alamo Dome in San Antonio, TX, last being 'Royal Rumble 1997'. This year's event had limitless potential, with a variety of big matches scheduled to change the face of WWE in major ways. 'Royal Rumble' has always been one of the most important pay-per-views in the WWE, because of the fact that the winner of the main event will earn a title shot at the biggest wrestling show of the year, 'WrestleMania'.
