Shane McMahon suffered his first loss of the last few months.
For all the hype behind this match because of its combatants, this was nothing special in my opinion. It was supposed to be a "No Holds Barred" match at Extreme Rules, but it was basically a match that seems like it spilled over from RAW.

It only had two "extreme" spots (Elias using his guitar and the trash can "Coast to Coast") and Shane McMahon's usual spots that he always hits in his matches. It wasn't anything new and there wasn't anything done during the bout that made it feel like a PPV match.

Roman Reigns and The Undertaker worked well together and the highlight of the match was the photo above. While using The Undertaker in this manner could help prolong his career if he wants it, it was still a match that failed to deliver on the hype that was built around it.
