That was a horrible finish. I'm waiting on the 'refreshed spoiler'. Orton/Sheamus = DQ? Yeah. Sheamus brought in a chair, ref grabbed the chair, Sheamus threw the ref to the outside. Orton RKO'd Sheamus on the table after the match. Didn't save face imo, that was a stupid booking decision. Kane vs. Mysterio hype video is on now. So sick of seeing this video, I've seen it like 30 times. IT WAS YOU KANE With the stips involved, no excuse for a DQ finish. Lazy booking That's exactly what I think. Orton had a ton of momentum going into this match, and given the stips involved, what purpose does the DQ serve? Orton didn't lose, so he gets a rematch now? Why not just give him the title here.[/quote] Undertaker returns, it was Kane, feud, ta-day. Right?

Kane's bringing the casket with him. I guess they are going with Taker coming back after the match by emerging from the casket.

so Kane-Mysterio get higher booking at SS than the other two matches? I find nothing exciting about it.
What other matches are left ?

The dq thing has been annoying for quite a number of years now. The dq is only used in today's wrestling when they want it for a story. Otherwise there are no dq's anymore. DQs used to mean something back when.

They just announced the Miz. My mistake

Ahhhh, earlier I thought you said it already happened. They just announced the Miz. My mistake I just looked back and yeah, I did imply that the match had happened. Sorry about that. Nexus vs. WWE hype video is on now. They've got 52 minutes left on the PPV, I'd imagine that the video and entrances will take about 10 minutes, which leaves 42 for the match, which is plenty of time for a seven on seven match, in my opinion.

Team WWE won. Cena pinned Gabriel after a missed 450, and then almost immediately locked Barrett in the STF. IMO, it was a good long match, but had the completely wrong ending.

Glad I did not order. This sounded even more stupid than I thought it'd be.

Just read the results...
Glad Danielson is back, but did they have to bury the Nexus to have him back?
Very, very, very odd.
I hope there's some sort of explanation as to why Miz didn't use MitB.. as that's ridiculously poor logic, even for wrestling.

Glad I did not order. This sounded even more stupid than I thought it'd be. Pretty much other than Danielson's return, and the main event topping out at really good, the show itself is worth skipping. EDIT: My thoughts on the show: - Kofi/Ziggler: They were actually going really good until the Nexus ran in and beat them down. I'm not sure what they had to gain here. The crowd was into what they were doing, but the non-finish followed by the Nexus promo wasn't exactly smart. - Melina/Alicia Fox: Shitty divas match was shitty. - Big Show/SES: Basic match, pretty much what you'd expect. Heels try to take out the giant, but can't. I really, really hate the Big Show. - Sheamus/Orton: The first good match of the night. Stupid booking behind the finish, but other than that, it was good. - Kane/Mysterio: They milked the casket at ringside for all it was worth. Bad match, post-match was interesting with them going from the perspective that Taker is now weaker than Kane due to him being in the vegetative state. - Team WWE/Nexus: Really good, long match. Daniel Bryan was one hell of a good choice to swerve the fans. I didn't like that they clustered the eliminations together most of the way. The ending kind of makes me question why they even bothered to tease Cena turning heel, or even trying to build Nexus as the new stars. I'd guess that, all in all, it was a pretty forgettable show other than the Taker/Kane angle, Orton/Sheamus, and the main event. If you didn't watch the PPV, and like a good, long, story driven main event, I'd say the $15 you'd pay for the DVD at Walmart or Best Buy or wherever is a fair asking price. EDIT #2: And this is the new Cena shirt. It's pretty awesome, especially compared to the crappy orange shirt he had from Survivor Series last year. I'm probably gonna get that shirt. I've got all of the Cena shirts from the 8-bit one to present with the exception of one.
