I liked the idea of Kurt Angle teasing his retirement earlier during the show. If he had not done the same, there would have been significantly lesser heat for the eventual tag team main event match, I feel.
Kurt Angle has been suffering a string of humiliating defeats this late in his career. I am glad that the losses were not forgotten as they are in WWE and that this was used as a device in the eventual main event match.

Kudos also to Baron Corbin who has improved by leaps and bounds in the ring to the point where he's an athletic big man. McIntyre and Strowman were always great in the ring but Corbin was always a step behind them in the past, but thankfully not anymore.
And do I need to speak about just how fluid Angle is in the ring, to this very day?
