Randy Orton vs. Sheamus

[4.0] "This is so boring, I wish Randy in this time would try even a little bit, this is basically a TV match with 0 heat or suspense. Nothing interesting happens at all and it does nothing to grab your attention at any stage. Even Randy's hometown crowd isn't really into this"

[8.0] "Really good match that really picked up in the second half with several believable near falls before orton got the win which is the correct decision as hes from St Louis and its a good way to pop the crowd. Money in the bank winners also regularly lose when they have the briefcase"

[6.0] "Solid showing from these two, kinda weird to have your money in the bank winner lose clean, not that that thing means anything anymore they will never build anyone correctly with that thing. 6.25/10"

[4.0] "It was quite okay, one of better orton/sheamus matches for sure. First half was dull and boring, nothing much special. Second half was better, crowd woke up for their boy - orton. Some nice counters from both, which made the match pretty okay. The rko finish definitely popped the crowd hard."

[6.0] "Slightly better than your ordinary WWE PPV match, probably because of the fired up hometown crowd of Randy's. Both Sheamus and Orton brought nothing new to the table, so I wasn't impressed at all. All in all, this was an okay opener, I guess."

[5.0] "An okay match with really underwhelming build-up. These two have had little chemistry but this was a decent match to kick off the show. Just really disagree with the outcome of this, when Sheamus had already been a questionable MitB winner - not to get a win here is so damaging, and I have no particular excitement to see this match happen for the title down the line if that's where they're going."

[6.0] "A decent match between the two, best match for sheamus since his matches with cesaro last year, the crowd was hot for orton and it was a pretty decent match and a good opener. My rating ***1/4"

[6.0] "It was an OK match but I wasn't invested into it. This match was boring most of the parts. This is the better match of Randy Orton vs Sheamus than the previous one. This match occurred couple of time weeks before this PPV which made me not want to see this again."

[7.0] "Sheamus & Randy Orton have never really had the best chemistry with each other in the ring, so this was definitely better than expected. Very physical opener, Sheamus was as good as he usually is and Orton was on FIRE. Good way to open the show. ***."
