Wrestle Review: Money in the Bank 2018

Roman Reigns vs. Jinder Mahal

For the way, WWE treats the Chicago crowd with fan-friendly matches and results, it's shocking they would try position two of their most vilified recent figures into one match. Then again for all his claims of knowing the product, Vince McMahon is often delusional and stubborn to a fault.

Sadly so are the fans, and for all those complaining that the Chicago crowd acted childish with 'CM Punk' chants and Mexican waves. Being the interactive sport that it is, such fan disdain enhances the engagement to the product for a hopeful change. Then again for all his claims about listening to fans, Vince McMahon is often delusional and stubborn to a fault.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

Had he been acutely aware of anything then Roman Reigns and Jinder Mahal would not run the paces in a lethargic contest full of rest holds and barely any explosives. The fun of the match is seeing Jinder's cohort Sunil Singh rise from his injuries, to attack Roman, a payback played off very well late into the match again. Yet that's all, when the fans are not into it even average begins to look like mediocre.

Roman Reigns spears Jinder Mahal for another win!
