Even though it may sound unimportant, the match order plays a crucial role in determining how good a PPV is.

Throughout the year, WWE always got the match order wrong during PPVs. While it feels logical to have the Universal title close out a PPV since it is the kayfabe top title of the company, it isn't around much. In those situations, either the WWE title or the match with the most steam heading into the event should close.

Just take Crown Jewel as an example. Rather than having the World Cup final close out the show, WWE had a rather slow and underwhelming match between four seasoned veterans close the show.

However, this time WWE got it perfect. Without an iota of doubt, the SmackDown Women's title match was the most talked about match heading into the PPV. Thus it deserved to close the show.

Other than pushing the cruiserweight title match to the kickoff show, the match order was impeccable.
