![]() ![]() Jinder Mahal: WWE Fastlane 2017 (WWE Network Exclusive)Īnd then Big Show beat Rusev clean in another bonus match that was only a step or two above a squash. Who in the world needs an eight minute Mahal match on “Main Event”, let alone here on a pay per view? At least we got done with the bad idea first.Ĭesaro vs. Above all else though, I don’t get why this match was put together. I didn’t get it when he and Rusev were put together in the first place or why they were split up so soon. He goes out there looking INSANELY jacked up and has the same boring matches he’s always had. Here’s the problem: Mahal is one of the least interesting characters I’ve ever seen. For some reason that means we get to see this, which followed Mahal beating Rusev down in a one on one brawl. I’m sorry what now? Yeah this was a bonus match thrown onto the card because Rusev and Mahal split up (after being together all of a month and a half) and wanted to show that they were able to win singles matches. NOW we get to the really weird/bad stuff. That stuff has all been mostly fine so far. The wrestling was fine but I really don’t understand what WWE was going for. Jax isn’t someone who can really take losses like this and I really don’t get the thinking here. In theory this was designed to have Banks get annoyed and ultimately cost Bayley the title but for some reason Banks just wins. Banks won off a fluke rollup in the end, which made a lot of people scratch their heads. This is a match that changed things for later in the night and not in a good way. Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson - Tag Team Title Match: WWE Fastlane 2017Īfter listening to Stephanie McMahon say she’s stuck at the airport and watching the show on her phone (yet for some reason she didn’t know Foley had her on speaker phone which was shown on camera), we had another match with an annoying ending. Watchable match, really dull ending.Įnzo Amore & Big Cass vs. The ending made it feel like a way to keep the feud (if you can call this a feud) going, which continues the theme of this show not mattering. I’m not the biggest Amore fan in the world but he and Big Cass winning the titles would have given the belts a short term shot of energy. They come in, put “ski” at the end of random words in a joke that a lot of people probably don’t get, and then have pretty bland matches. No matter how you look at it, Anderson and Gallows are not very interesting champions. While the match was fine enough, the end result brings everything to a halt. Raw Tag Team Titles: Enzo Amore/Big Cass vs. We’ll skip the perfectly acceptable pre-show match (cruiserweights in a ten minute match are always going to be fine for an opener) and the completely fine (albeit slightly underwhelming) Sami Zayn vs. I’m only focusing on the bad/questionable stuff here as there’s only so much you can get out of praising a match, especially when it’s perfectly fine.
