I expect a comedy skit involving Santino and a movie plug... if they do better, I'll be excited.
I did read the spoilers... they're indeed terr-a-bul (worse than regular terrible... Charles Barkley terr-a-bul)
Somehow though Vengeance is looking like a pretty good card.

I expect a comedy skit involving Santino and a movie plug... if they do better, I'll be excited. I fully expect much more than just one skit for this show featuring the Muppets. I have read that they have already started working on the show and hopefully they go all out, because it could get some good interest. Not sure Lauranitis will be a good figure head for the show...Triple H would have been better to play off of. |

Really? I thought it set up the pay per view pretty well. Reading the spoilers made it sound terrible, but the actual show was pretty good. No offensive matches really, and one that I thought was actively good (the opening tag). |

The opening 6 man tag match was ok, Punk/Miz was fine, the rest bleh...

There were so many things on last night that i tuned in and out. However the Main Event wasn't as bad as i was expecting. i mean, well after the set up i was expecting HHH to win the title or something else truly abominable. Seemed like the average RAW main event to me.

I agree.. the impact of JR and Cole was minimal.. so much so I wonder why they bothered with it, actually. Maybe someone thought that were 'making up to JR' after they embarassed him (again) in OKC.
This is definitely the best set up PPV in a while, IMO.

The opening 6 man tag match was ok, Punk/Miz was fine, the rest bleh... I mean, not to get into an argument or anything, but if there were two matches that were watchable, why was the show total garbage? I sometimes think that we are unnecessarily tough on WWE. If this was the go home show for a TNA PPV, people would be saying the company had turned itself around. |

I didn't watch the end but from what I read Ross got the win over Cole in the Main Event. I do not get this at all. Number one they just dragged this same feud out for 4 months earlier this year along with Jerry Lawler. Nobody got over then and no one gets over now with another "announcers feud". F the announcers. I want to see wrestlers. Crazy idea, I know. We don't need two "separate brands" when you're regularly using Jim Ross, Micheal Cole, Jerry Lawler, Bret Hart and all these other non-wrestlers - as wrestlers. It's not that hard to figure out. Wrestlers wrestle, announcers announce. You don't see this ridiculous shit in any other sport why the WWE does it all the time is beyond me. These are two MAIN EVENT spots that can be given to so many other guys.
The PPV looks like a good show to watch for free online. If CM Punk doesn't turn on HHH and get a major rub from this storyline I'm not sure what I'll do. I watch CM Punk now and he appears to be kinda just floating around waiting for something big with him involved to happen. He's not being pushed down the card but the hard focus is def no longer on him. It's like they have him in the picture but he's off to the far left. I feel like something is about to give.

I didn't watch the show, but I read the report from last night's RAW and it seems that Triple H is still the storyline COO, he's just been removed as GM of RAW (removed by Vince McMahon who was let go from his official duties with the company a few months ago, but that's neither here nor there). NOW, how is a guy supposed to be an effective COO if he doesn't even have control of part of the company he's supposed to be running?
Makes my head hurt.
