A) JoMo -- ADR was a great match even though we knew what the outcome would be. A few times, I thought JoMo was going to win. If JoMo wasn't up Melina's ass and horrid on the mic, he'd be gold! His in ring talent is superb. ADR was ADR, and ADR is awesome.
B) JR needs to know the difference between a German suplex and a back suplex. As a matter of fact, JR is annoying. I like the Thwagger -- Dolph -- Vickie situation. Riley, minus his theme music, isn't doing much for me, but his spinebuster was awesome tonight.
C) It seems like guys are wrestling more these days and pulling out different moves.
D) I knew the tag titles would change hands, and I think that that was a great idea. Now, WWE, keep it going! Also, the tag titles are beautiful. They should show them off more. Oh, I really think they are going to bring back the tag division. They have so much talent, you know, so why not? I wonder if Miz -- Truth will become a tag team?
E) The Punk -- HHH -- Nash angle is great! People saying they killed the Punk angle / push... LOL! WWE is so awesome right now. Johnny Ace makes for a good 2011 Patterson/Brisco.

The Miz-Truth alliance is oh so awesome. I absolutely loved the in-ring promo they both cut with the crowd, and the interaction. I wonder if Kingston-Bourne (the Bourne Kings?) are merely transition champs to get the belts to Miz-Truth who can dominate the tag division on both shows until the main event scene clears up for one or both of them to headline another pay per view?

You know, the night Punk won the WWE title at MITB, some writer on WWE.com referred to Johnny Ace as Vince's 2011 Stooge -- and was forced to retract and apologize for that comment a day later!

Punk and Cena work so well together. This is an amazing match!
Nash vs. Punk at NoC. Blah!

You know what the silliest thing that stuck out at me the most? How unprofessional and clueless Kelly Kelly is. She was supposed to be the corner person for Eve and when Eve was introduced Kelly came out holding the belt overhead and doing her thing like she was the focal point. Then she took the spotlight at the end, too. I know it was just because she doesn't have a clue, but when someone is the second they're supposed to lay out and let the other person get the attention. The selfishness and hogging the spotlight looked almost like a heel move when it wasn't supposed to.
By the way, as soon as possible I'm replacing the oak table in the kitchen with one of those conspiracy tables Truth and Miz were talking about.

The selfishness and hogging the spotlight looked almost like a heel move when it wasn't supposed to. The thing that sticks out most is that someone would write this much about the WWE Women's Division. Ick. But anyways. Truth/Miz promo - awesome. Really awesome. Kofi/Bourne - awesome. They kept teasing me by babbling about tag wrestling, I was expecting/hoping KOW was going to show. The Cena/Punk/Nash ending - TBD. I like the implied tease of Cena being somehow involved when he nails Punk but I'm pretty sure there is no chance they are going that direction. Mystery texter - also TBD. HHH looking less likely. Johnny Ace looking less likely because that would've been too obvious. They need to resolve this one in short order. They drag it on too long and next we know, it's gonna be Rikishi.

If it does come down to Nash/Punk at NoC, I wouldn't be surprised if Nash suddenly gets 'injured' right before the show.

What a great job of keeping me wondering just what the heck is going to happen next. Ever since Punk first gave that initial promo, WWE has been on the ball. This is how the show should be. So many questions and possible ways they could go with Cena, ADR, Punk, HHH, Nash, Lauranitis, Steph.
I really like the team of Bourne & Kingston. It was obvious that they would be the next champs after they came out last week with matching gear. However, it didn't take away from their win last night at all. I thought they would win the gold last week. Then this week I thought there would be a funky finish so they could save the title change for NOC. Guess they'll do a rematch at NOC now. With all the rumors of HHH wanting to build up tag team wrestling again, following the tag division is getting interesting again. One of the trademarks about the Attitude Era was this division and all the great matches that up and comers like Edge & Christian, Hardys, Dudleys, etc. were putting on in an attempt to be recognized. It's time for the next generation of tag teams to shine and work together to get themselves over.
I'm torn on Ziggler, Swagger, Vickie. On one hand, I think it would be great for Vickie to have a stable, and Ziggler and Swagger look great together as stablemates. On the other hand Ziggler and Swagger would also have some tremendous matches if they were feuding too. IMO, can't go wrong either way.

C) It seems like guys are wrestling more these days and pulling out different moves. I definitely think what we are seeing lately is everybody stepping up. Punk shook things up and now more people are tuning in. So what you have is the entire roster doing their part to step up, shine, be recognized, and keep the ball rolling. Changes are happening and nobody wants left out. It's step up or get passed over time. And we, the wrestling fans, are benefiting because of it.
