Rating: **
Analysis:
That was a decent match, and Paige plays the underdog champion character to perfection. She found a way out to retain the title, and still remains on the top of the food chain. The Wyatts appeared on the big screen, as Bray Wyatt said that Cena stood alone now, and his allies have joined the Wyatts. He then gave the sheep mask to “Jimmy” who put it on. WWE aired a promo for the Daniel Bryan – Kane match in the main event, which captured Bryan’s journey to the top of the world and how his world came crashing down due to Kane.

Winner and still the WWE World Heavyweight champion: Daniel Bryan
Rating: **** ¼
Analysis: That was yet another outstanding mainevent, and the second 4+ star rating I have given to a match on the PPV. The psychology was brilliant, as Bryan dug deep to retain the WWE World Heavyweight championship against the demonic Kane, who has set out to destroy Bryan and everything he loves. Their chemistry was impeccable, and the match itself was top notch. The ending could’ve been better, but in the end, that came out great.
Over – all rating of the show: **** ¼ (Out of 5 stars)
Although the show delivered in every aspect, a lot of deserving superstars were let off the card, and a couple of things could’ve been booked better. It’ll be interesting to see what happens with John Cena, now that his fans have turned on him. Also, what will Kane do next to Daniel Bryan? Have The Shield seen the end of Evolution? A lot of things will be answered tomorrow, as we now head off to Monday Night RAW! That does it for the live review, and we hope you enjoyed the show.
