I would of to. I dint really care for the build up.
It didn't match up to their New Japan classic, but it wasn't bad.
it was average, by the standard they set prior.
Who talks about average?

They NJPW outing was hard hitting, dramatic n mad competitive.
I woulda been happy if they just phoned it in n copied that for Mania.

It wasn't horrible but aj was clearly still injured. That's why the match fell flat.

And like I said in that thread...
I said this last year
I thought they were gonna turn him then but saving it until Mania was a good call. I think it was unfair to expect them to put on a 30 minute face vs face classic when the build was a friendly rivalry where they didn't put hands on each other
I felt like the Mania match was the appetizer and the next match (their 3rd at 1 each with Naka playing heel this time) they'll go all out. I think Nakamura expected the match to go in his favor again and underestimated AJ, hence why he snapped and why he toyed with him during the built.
We dunno how the agents planned the match out. I don't think it was a dud because it set up what might be a blood feud for the next 6-12 months
WWE (main roster...not NXT) just can't seem to pull off these work rate heavy matches successfully. I'm not sure why, but they always come across as disjointed and pedestrian. Maybe it's the match agents.
But yeah, it wasn't trash but it had none of the electricity of the Wrestle Kingdom match.
