Solid segment, good confidence, and he steps right up to the champion. That’s how you introduce someone.They main event—good match, Cody wins—but the real story? Gunther jumps him after. Sleeper hold, stands tall with the title. That’s your money feud.Charlotte Flair loses thanks to interference—fine match, but the bigger story is Rhea Ripley cleaning house. She still feels like a top star.Tag titles—Truth & Priest retain. Nothing special.Bloodline story? Still the best thing going.Solo Sikoa, The Usos, and Jacob Fatu—it’s chaos.

Very strange. Not sure what we’re doing there.Women’s tag match? Also weird. Not clicking.Main event angle with Fatu? Strong. That’s how you close a show.Overall?
