It was a hot night in the Nation's Capital, as all the top stars of the WWE made their way out to The Verizon Center, in Washington D.C., for what would be the final pay-per-view event before the brand split.
This particular event featured nine big matches, including six-man tag team action, where John Cena, Enzo & Cass defeated AJ Styles, Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows of The Club. We also saw an epic grudge match in which Sami Zayn defeated his former best friend Kevin Owens, and The Wyatt Family took down The New Day.

However, the major focus of the show surrounded the main-event.
In the night’s main event, we would finally see all three former members of The Shield in the same ring, at the same time. However, this would not be the reunion that many fans wanted. Instead, this was a triple-threat match for the WWE Championship, which was held by Dean Ambrose.
In the end, it would be the Lunatic Fringe who came out on top, retaining his title.

Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
