18 WWE WrestleMania 36 Impulse Reactions
7. Aleister Black Vs. Bobby Lashley
Some of the more flippant amongst us might have suggested this meant absolutely f*ck all going in to the 'Show Of Shows'. That's probably why Aleister Black's win carried about the same value.
Lana, the stupid bloody woman - this is Paul Heyman's Raw, that's precisely what we were asked to think - told him to drop his planned Dominator and go for the spear. We knew this because of an appalling acting display from the 'Ravishing Russian' (who, incidentally, returned from a stint on the set of a feature film) and because god forbid Aleister Black win a match that matters without some odd banana skin for the heel to slip upon first.
You'll notice the lack of a description of a first or second act before the finish, but as the second match of the second night, it was becoming increasingly difficult to take something from the absolute nothing on display. Not the fault of the wrestlers, but another dreary reminder that this entire show most definitely wasn't what it was billed to be.
