Super ShowDown, the third Saudi Arabia PPV in two years, was on expected lines, as we saw some predictable results and an overall average show.
It wasn't one for the ages and neither will it have any big repercussions on WWE RAW or SmackDown programming. The Super ShowDown PPV was more like a B-grade PPV rather than the WrestleMania-like PPV that it was billed as.
The main event of the match was between two pro wrestling legends who are way past their best, which was rather underwhelming. The battle royal was chaotic and didn't add much to the show, while Brock Lesnar's Money in the Bank contract cash-in was a failure.
How will Super ShowDown impact RAW and SmackDown, and the next WWE PPV, Stomping Grounds? Let's take a look at the fallouts from WWE Super ShowDown.
#5 Seth Rollins vs Baron Corbin rematch with Lesnar cashing in
In the latest WWE NEWS, the first match of the main show was for teh Universal title between Seth Rollins and Baron Corbin, which ended with a win for Rollins after Corbin remonstrated with the referee which gave Rollins the time to take advantage and a quick roll-up cover to get the win.
Following the match, an angry Corbin landed the Deep Six on Rollins, which led to Brock Lesnar making an appearancealong with his Money in the Bank contract. Lesnar wanted to cash in the contract but a stumble by Paul Heyman led to Rollins taking advantage as he low blowed Lesnar and then brutalised him with a chair, which resulted in Lesnar not being able to cash in the contract.
Backstage, Corbin was angry at being robbed off the Universal title, as he dominated the Universal title match, but could not get the win. We will see a rematch between Corbin and Rollins at this month's Stomping Grounds PPV. Perhaps, Corbin could win the match at the PPV and Lesnar could cash in and win the title once again before Rollins and Lesnar feud at SummerSlam.
#4 New feuds
The Super ShowDown PPV could see the end of a few feuds in the WWE. Finn Balor once again defeated Andrade to retain his Intercontinental title, which could result in the end of the feud as the two have been in the feud for quite some time now.
Balor, who is over on SmackDown Live, could perhaps have a feud with someone like Daniel Bryan or Kevin Owens, both of which would make for blockbuster matches.
Braun Strowman and Bobby Lashley have also been feuding for quite some time and with Strowman's win over Lashley, this could maybe mean the end of this feud as well. Although it has been quite interesting, but with no title at stake, it has been rather boring. Strowman should feud with someone like Samoa Joe for the United States title and win his first belt on the main roster, before targetting the Universal title.
#3 Viking Raiders vs AOP vs Heavy Machinery potential tag team match
Time and again, WWE fans have criticised WWE's booking of the tag team division, which is currently an afterthought both on WWE RAW and SmackDown Live. Two of the best teams in the tag team division, The Revival and The Usos, were in a match on the pre-show at Super ShowDown, which was quite a travesty.
But we could see things change in the weeks to come. Super ShowDown saw the return of AOP to WWE television as both Akam and Rezar competed in the 50-man battle royal, and we also saw them tease a feud with two other talented tag teams in WWE - Viking Raiders and Heavy Machinery.
This could certainly be an interesting feud, with all 6 men having come from NXT and put on great matches there. This could be the revival of the tag team division.
#2 Goldberg retires from professional wrestling
WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg wrestled in the main event of Super ShowDown when he faced off against The Undertaker, in what was the first match between the two legends, and perhaps the last time they would face each other too.
The match in Saudi Arabia could have also been the last match for Goldberg in pro wrestling as he fulfilled his one dream match that he had never been a part of, which was against The Undertaker.
Goldberg has achieved everything there is to achieve in pro wrestling and WWE, and at 52 years of age, he doesn't have a lot to offer in the ring. The main man in WCW's rise to the top, Goldberg will go down in the annals of pro wrestling history as one of the most important pro wrestlers of all-time.
While the stage could have been bigger, say WrestleMania or SummerSlam, Goldberg facing off against The Undertaker in his farewell match was probably the best way to sign off.
#1 Brock Lesnar turns on Paul Heyman
Brock Lesnar looked like he was set to cash-in his Money in the Bank contract on Seth Rollins after the Universal champion was brutalised at the hands of Baron Corbin, who was unhappy at the outcome of his Universal title match.
Lesnar could not capitalise on Rollins' condition due to a slip by his advocate Paul Heyman which resulted in the briefcase falling out of his hands.
This brief confusion also helped Rollins take advantage and attack Lesnar with a low blow and then a chair. Lesnar missed out on a huge opportunity to cash-in his contract and win back the Universal title which he lost at WrestleMania 35.
Lesnar could maybe turn on Paul Heyman who cost The Beast the win, on next week's RAW show. Heyman has been by Lesnar's side for a long time but this could be the end of the Advocate's run beside Lesnar.
