Rob’s Note: What a fun main event. I enjoyed this a lot and am a big fan of the 5 on 5 matches. They usually always deliver since they’re given time. Everyone also looked great in this too (except Woods).
I was fine with the DQ finish. There’s no reason to give away a pinfall ending before Rollins vs. Reigns at Survivor Series.
