The Main Event: A Flat Finish
Dave Simon opened the discussion with a strong critique of the main event’s conclusion. The six-man tag match ended in what he described as a flat and uneventful finish. Solo Sikoa pinned Cody Rhodes after a series of predictable ref bumps and low blows, leading to an anticlimactic end. The hosts were confused over WWE’s decision to end the show this way, especially after Triple H promised a landscape-changing event.
“What the hell was that? Did they forget how to finish pay-per-views?” Dave exclaimed, capturing the frustration many fans felt.

Predictable Outcomes
One of the night’s recurring themes was predictability. Dave, Johnny, and Ben agreed that many outcomes were too easily foreseen, detracting from the event’s excitement. For example, Drew McIntyre’s briefcase cash-in, which CM Punk thwarted, was called out by the hosts beforehand. The lack of surprises left the hosts and fans yearning for more creativity in WWE’s storytelling.
“I’m not that happy about it because I don’t want it to be this predictable and bland and boring,” Dave noted, reflecting the sentiment of many viewers.
WWE Money in the Bank 2024 Audience Reactions and Live Experience
Despite the lacklustre finishes, audience members like long-time channel member, Antoinette shared their positive experiences of attending the event live. She noted the energy in the building and the excitement of being part of a major WWE event in Toronto. However, she also pointed out some glaring issues, such as Tama Tonga’s botched low blow, which added to the night’s messy feel.
“Live was awesome. That is all that made me happy,” Antoinette said, emphasizing the difference between the live atmosphere and the televised experience.
Audience member Harold Schneider also weighed in, expressing his disappointment with the show’s overall quality compared to past events.
“Money in the Bank used to be fun. Not tonight,” Harold commented, capturing the dissatisfaction felt by many long-time fans.
Standout Matches and Performances
While the main event and some matches fell short, others delivered. The men’s Money in the Bank ladder match was unanimously praised as the night’s match. High spots and risky moves kept the audience engaged and provided the kind of action fans expect from a Money in the Bank event.
“Men’s money in the bank for sure. That was the match of the night,” Johnny North declared, highlighting the standout performances from wrestlers like Andrade and Chad Gable.
Technical Issues and Botches
Technical difficulties and in-ring botches were significant parts of the night’s narrative. The event seemed plagued by mishaps, from the pre-show audio issues to Zoe Starks’ awkward landings. The most glaring was during the Seth Rollins vs. Damian Priest match, when Priest failed to kick out, leading to an awkward pause and confusion.
“Seth was looking at the ref like, ‘What the hell?'” Dave recounted, summarizing the chaotic moment that left fans and commentators alike baffled.
Looking Ahead to SummerSlam
As the post-show wrapped up, the hosts shifted their focus to the future, specifically WWE SummerSlam 2024. With setups like Solo Sikoa vs. Cody Rhodes and potential triple-threat matches involving Seth Rollins, Drew McIntyre, and CM Punk, there’s hope that WWE can deliver a more satisfying event.
Join us immediately after SummerSlam for our post-show on August 3rd,” Dave encouraged, inviting fans to tune in for what promises to be a more thrilling discussion.
Scores and Audience Comments
To wrap up their review, Dave, Johnny, and Ben gave their scores for the event. Here’s how they rated it out of ten:
Dave Simon: “I’m giving it a seven. It wasn’t great. It wasn’t horrific. I liked it better than Forbidden Door, but that’s not saying much. The past couple of big wrestling shows I’ve watched have not been good”.
Johnny North: “I think I’d give it a seven overall. Like, I thought they were both enjoyable for their reasons. Neither were perfect shows, but both had highlights”.
Ben Simon: “Yeah, seven here. I didn’t care much for the end or the finish. Boring, but the ladder matches, even in the women’s one, a lot of car crashes, but they were going for it”.
Audience members also shared their scores:
Michael: “Ten”.
Harold: “Six”.
Ryan Katz: “Eight”.
Franco 316: “Seven”

The UFC’s White House card is built backwards — the American headliner is a massive underdog on the most patriotic stage in sports. Our full UFC Freedom 250 predictions cover all seven fights: the chin question deciding Topuria vs Gaethje, the Pereira-Gane pick’em, and a Canadian dog at +320.
Wrestling Uncensored Episode 783 arrives after a full week of WWE television in Italy — and the King and Queen of the Ring is the spine of it. Dave Simon and Johnny North break down a tournament where every first-round match is a fatal four-way and the winners earn a SummerSlam title shot: Oba Femi and Dominik Mysterio advancing on the men’s side, Iyo Sky and Raquel Rodriguez on the women’s side, and a Brock Lesnar shadow hanging over the whole men’s bracket. Then the take that starts the arguments — Roman Reigns is a heel and the crowd hasn’t caught up. Plus the Bron Breakker–Seth Rollins belt-spear finish, the LA Knight King of the Ring story, the WWE glass-ceiling debate, and in AEW: MJF’s knee injury before Forbidden Door, Mercedes Moné’s Owen Hart Cup return, and Redemption coming to Montreal.
No UFC champion has ever done what Sean Strickland is doing right now. Ten days before UFC Freedom 250 on the White House lawn, the two-time middleweight champion — fresh off handing Khamzat Chimaev his first loss — says he’s blacklisted from the event and is publicly torching it, trading vicious social media barbs with main eventer Justin Gaethje along the way. Meanwhile, Saturday’s UFC Vegas 118 main event is a genuine crossroads: Belal Muhammad, 37 and on two straight decision losses, meets Gabriel Bonfim, a 28-year-old Brazilian finisher at 19-1, with the betting markets split almost exactly down the middle. Add the first look at “The Claw” on the White House lawn, Conor McGregor’s July return against Max Holloway, and the official January 2027 death date for UFC pay-per-view in Canada.
WWE Clash in Italy delivered a solid premium live event from Turin — but the matches that were supposed to be the showcase underdelivered, the match nobody circled stole the night, and the most important wrestling moment of the entire weekend didn’t even happen on WWE programming. Roman Reigns beat Jacob Fatu in Tribal Combat and immediately forced his cousin back in line, with Solo Sikoa and the Tongas watching from ringside. Sol Ruca snatched the Women’s Intercontinental Championship from Becky Lynch. Rhea Ripley and Jade Cargill had the best match on the card. Cody vs Gunther and Brock vs Oba Femi left plenty on the table. We break down every match, hand out grades, and lay out exactly where WWE goes from here.
