Winners- Bayley, Bianca Belair, Iyo Sky, Naomi & Rhea Ripley
Grade: B
This match started off slow as all get out. It didn’t pick up until the match officially started once Morgan entered the match. Way too much time was spent searching under the ring for weapons. When did WarGame become about how many weapons you can bring in the ring? It’s just lazy. Big ups to all the women in this match. They did their best to try to kill each other out there tonight. Also, happy birthday, Naomi! The party hat on the way to the ring was funny. The big spots in this match were huge; Stratton and SKY’s insane dives stand out, but Ripley’s Riptide off the top is a solid 1C for insane moments in this match. Side note: the failed cash-ins are growing a bit old. Not because they keep happening but because they have run out of creative ways to make it happen.

Winner- Shinsuke Nakamura
Grade: C+
The right guy won. Debuting someone with a new look to have them lose is illogical. If that was the case, have Nakamura attack the Miz or someone like that. Knight was a bit sloppy here, but if you listen to Graves and Cole on commentary, that’s because of Nakamura’s mind games. Counterpoint: Knight is just sloppy. Just saying. Knight will likely win the title back by the next PLE, but that’s not the point. Knight is getting stale, and chasing the title again gives him something to do. Also, and this shouldn’t be understated, SHINSUKE NAKAMURA HAS GOLD ONCE AGAIN! *Does a back bend my old tail has no business doing*

Winner- Bron Breakker
Grade: B+
This match was great. Kaiser, Breakker, and Sheamus had their working boots on tonight. Breakker’s agility is insane; he flew through the air like a cruiserweight while possessing scary power. Breakker tossed Kaiser and Sheamus around the ring like they were rag dolls. Every near fall in this match had this writer on the edge of his seat. Kaiser’s pin after the DreamDT was a 2.99999 count. Breakker had to pin Sheamus here as another pinfall victory over a former world champion is just another notch in the Bad @$$’s belt. Breakker is going to main event WrestleMania within the next three years. Mark that down.

Grade: C+
This match was better than the first match between these two. With that, this wasn’t any better than your standard Raw main event, complete with Judgement Day interference. This writer popped when Gunther booted Bálor in the face. This is OLD. Can we see Priest have a match that doesn’t end with an appearance from Bálor just once?
