Of all the matches going down at tonight's WWE Pay Per View, the one match I thought I had figured out was the CM Punk versus Undertaker match. Surely because it is a Cell match, that fact does give the Undertaker a heck of an advantage.
But I didn't believe they (WWE) would hand CM Punk a lost this quickly. I mean from what I've read (and from what little I've gotten to watch), CM Punk has been a hell of a bad guy since turning during his feud with Jeff Hardy. Why allow Undertaker to get the title victory so quickly after returning?
The other logic behind my thinking is the fact that Undertaker seems to always end up injured after winning the world title. I mean for nearly every instance that I can recall over the past few years, 'Taker has always ended up leaving on a injury after winning the big one. And considering how he just returned after being out since WrestleMania, that would be a bad, bad thing.
John Morrison versus Dolph Ziggler... eh... I like Morrison, I think he could be a hell of a long running Intercontential Champion. It would be kind of cool to see the title stay with one wrestler for a while, rather then switching it all over the place every other month. But that's just me. With that said, this victory he picked up tonight is a step in that direction.
As for Ziggler... I couldn't care less to be honest.
Mickie James defeating Alicia Fox isn't all that awesome, just because of the fact that I don't think Fox has much wrestling experience. Why the WWE even has two divisions is beyond me, especially when they couldn't even muster a decent division when they had only one title out there. Anyway, maybe this will lead towards a rekindling of James's feud with Beth Phoenix, this time for the Divas Championship.
I feel a little bad for Batista. I feel bad for the guy because he jumps back to Smackdown and ends up right back into a tag team with the returning Rey Mysterio. Don't get me wrong, that isn't bad and the fact that they are facing the Unified Tag Team Champs Chris Jericho and Big Show, certainly helps matters. I suppose this will be the start of a new feud, though I can't help but wonder what is wrong with the few other actual tag teams out there right now (Legecy, Cryme Tyme, Hart Dynasty or how about even MVP & Mark Henry?)...
Randy Orton and John Cena are still beating the living hell out of each other? Wow. I would think that these guys would have managed to kill each other by now, considering how long these two guys have been at each other. Like Punk vs. Undertaker, I am surprised to see Orton winning the title back so quickly. I guess they'll continue on and beat the sh*t out of each other further?
I agree with some fans saying they are tired of seeing these two in matches against each other. But really, who else can fight for the title now? Triple H and HBK are doing the DX thing (again) and basically everyone else hasn't quite been built up to step into the big picture yet. Maybe Edge could...?
I like Kofi Kingston as United States Champion. I like the fact that there are actually legit contenders after him in Jack Swagger and The Miz. I think if given enough time, this feud could potentially make all three guys into top level stars. Wow, did I just say that?
R-Truth and that Drew guy... yeah, just like Ziggler, I couldn't care less about this match all together. Maybe they could form a stable together? They could call themselves R-Drew McIn-Ziggles. Classic! Sounds like a law firm... or a new, futuristic McDonalds sandwich.
DX versus Legacy reminds me of DX versus the Spirt Squad. Wow, I just insulted Legacy that time. I mean this feud kind of reminds me DX's battles against the cheerleaders in that they tend to lose a lot to the pair of veterans. Then again, Legacy did beat the crap out of DX last month so...
So I wonder where this is all going?
Overall, I am glad I don't spend money to watch these Pay Per View shows like I used to many, many years ago. I am content with just reading about what happened, rather then spend $30 to be disappointed with a craptacular show. Believe me when I say that I've fallen victim to that many, many times.
