Christian also thought it was strange to see Xavier Woods lifting Big E on his shoulders, when Big E is the defined ‘strong man’ in The New Day. He thought that by having Woods execute this power move, it took away from what Big E brings to that group on a nightly basis.
Edge really loved the A.J. Styles/Brock Lesnar match. He points out that this made Styles an even bigger star and that was no guarantee going in, since Lesnar matches can either be great and competitive or average and quick. He points out that Lesnar was really selling for Styles, especially while catching him for the F5 at the end, and this drama made for some fantastic television.
Christian thought Charlotte and Alexa Bliss had a good match but he thought they left enough on the table so that a rematch still has a lot of potential, perhaps at WrestleMania. Edge agrees and thinks these two women have another great match in them somewhere down the line.
Edge was blown away by Velveteen Dream’s performance at NXT Takeover: War Games. He thought Dream had a great match with Aleister Black, and points out that there were several terrific false finishes during this bout. Edge says that it’s hard to believe that Dream has only been training at the Performance Centre for 3 years because he has such a terrifically defined character and his work is very good in the ring.
