edit: Wade Barrett looks like he took a horrible injury tonight and could miss Mania. Ziggler too...? Ziggler eating the announcer table on his way down from being lawn darted out of the ring by the Big Show was so scary I didn't even notice Wade Barrett's injury until the EMTs started coming out. But then Cody Rhodes eliminating Santino by throwing him out of the ring mere inches away from Wade Barrett's broken arm topped that minutes later as the scariest moment of the night. I'm sure Barrett is out of Mania, which sucks because Smackdown is so thin right now that they were forced to give Santino a serious push because their previous last resort for the EC was the Great Khali even though the dude can barely take a step without the pain showing on his face right now. Does Cody Rhodes' elimination of Big Show mean that Shaq won't be taking on the Big Show after all?

Raw was really good tonight.
First, Eve gets called out like the trick she is, LOL. Someobody here called this (forgot who it was though). Nice job on that one! Zack is going to be over even more when he returns. Ho-ski, LOL.
Was it just me or did Sheamus-Henry only last 5 minutes?
Nice to see Ron Simmons going in the HOF. Well deserved. Been a fan since his jerry curl days in the NWA.
I'm pulling for Cena against The Rock. His promo was great. Had me convinced.
I thought it was kind of a letdown that Taker never officially accepted Triple H's challenge for HIAC and we had to hear it from Cole when they came back from commercial. I'm not sure how I feel about the HIAC though. I think it might actually limit what they can do. Career vs. Career would've been a better sell, but like Triple H is ready to retire.
Did anyone NOT think Jericho was winning the battle royal? There was no point. However, it was the most entertaining part of the show. Barrett breaks his arm and then Santino almost lands on it! Someone's jobbing on Superstars next week.
At first I thought Ziggler broke his neck with how he landed...neck-first(?) on the announce table. OUCH! You knew something was up when everyone in the ring started calling audibles. Too bad for Barrett. Worst time of year to get a bad injury like that, especially after the great year he's had.
Then, LINE OF THE YEAR from C.M. Punk...
"I know this is totally unrelated to anything, but one of these EMTs looks just like 'Rock & Roll' Buck Zuhmofe." LMFAO!!!! Major props to Punk for a seriously deep pull from the archives! Effing hilarious!!! I love when he does commentary.

The Cena parts of Raw were the best tonight IMO. Cool to see Eve turn heel then freak out when she gets caught scheming against Cena.
1st ever HIAC at WM should be huge and very fitting for the 20th UT win, but I gotta say, I don't care to see either of these 2 guys wrestle ever again. I wish I was more excited for this match, but I'm not.
Definitely pulling for Cena in his match vs. The Movie Star. Everything he says about Rock is spot on. I feel like Rock's promos against Cena are very low brow and childish.
Punk vs. Y2J should be good. I can't wait to see these 2 start cutting promos on each other. Daniel Bryan vs. Sheamus could end up stealing the show.
Speaking of show, maybe we'll see an I-C Title match with Cody defending against Big Show.

[\quote] I fell asleep after the Sheamus/Henry match (I work a lot of early shifts now, so it's harder to stay up unless i'm playing a video game or something). Yeah, their match was pretty short, but at least Sheamus won clean, giving him some momentum going in to WM. This may be the first time ever that I'm cheering for Cena. Going off on Eve and then calling Rock (Who to me is the next Hogan in too many ways) a spoiled, self-centered b**** won me over. Oh and Payback, didn't UT fight Bossman in a HITC at WM 15?

Okay, I just watched it on Youtube. That's the Daniel Bryan I want to see! I don't care if that match was short; it showed DB cleanly winning, which he needs going into WM.
I liked Miz' performance in the BR. Too bad he won't be in a high-profile match at WM, but I'll be happy if he faces Kofi. They could put on a good match.
Unless the rumor of Shaq holds true, looks like we're getting Big Show/Cody at WM, which also works for me.
Too bad about Wade and Dolph. It looks like Wade won't make it to the ppv, but hopefully Dolph will.
Jericho winning was not really built as a surprise, but I enjoyed the match anyway. Great showing by Santino. I don't mind that he's a goof as long as he wrestles.
We might have to order WM again this year.

Oh and Payback, didn't UT fight Bossman in a HITC at WM 15? Oh yes you are right. I forgot about that. That was the one where The Brood showed up getting lowered from the ceiling feeding a noose into the cell and UT "hung" Bossman. Good call.

I have more interest in Punk-Jericho, Bryan-Sheamus than I do with Cena-Rock, I used to really enjoy the Rock...I also liked playing with toy cars as well. As for Cena my distaste can only go so far as my daughter(7 years old) thinks he is great. HITC could be excelllent. I am more interested in seeing the Ziggler vs the Ringside table rematch as the table seemed to have whipped his but last night.
