WWE Extreme Rules 2019: Grading each match from the show

Modified Jul 18, 2019 13:46 GMT

Only one of these two stars walked out of Extreme Rules with their title.

Aleister Black vs. Cesaro: A

As expected, this match was one of the best of Extreme Rules.

Aside from the triple threat match for the SmackDown Tag Team Titles, this was the match of the night. It wasn't overly long but properly showcased both Aleister Black and Cesaro as fearless strikers who dished out as much as they could take.

From kicks to European Uppercuts to multiple strikes, this was a great way to have both men look great. Unfortunately, the crowd seemed dead during the duration of this match. There were a few moments when they perked up, but it was only for brief periods.

The audience did chant "this is awesome" at one point but before and after that, they appeared uninterested. And as it usually does, the Black Mass kick is always crowd-pleasing. Black proved that he shouldn't be given the slow track to the main event whereas Cesaro proved once again that he should always have been there.
