Riley could use some sort of Spinebuster as a finisher, he does them so well

Lots of near falls here.

In all honesty, does anybody see Riley holding the belt? I don't. Yes he's good but he has at least three years before he will even get a belt around his waist or so... I don't see him holding the WWE Championship, maybe the US yes...

He seems destined to be stuck in the mid card scene, He will probably hold a fair amount of IC/US titles in his career...Maybe even a few tag team titles with someone like Johny Curtis?

Holy shit that was a nice apron drive-by kick!

Riley & Rey win, that was an excellent tag match. Good way of using Riley near the end

I have been watching but not commenting because this show hasn't been that great. HOWEVER, that may be the best WWE tag match I have seen in at least 3 years. That was a hell of a match.

That was a good tag team match and they were given a good amount of time. Riley is still using that lifting DDT as his finisher.

Cena vs. Truth is still to come and there is only ten minutes left plus overrun.

TheZig - I cannot take Curtis seriously, maybe Riley/Rey as a tag team works... was proven tonight and WWE are known to throw in random tag teams...

I'd rather The Uso's be champs first before anything. The Tag Division needs more utilizing but Riley should work more Tag Teams if that's what's going to get him over a bit more... he literally jobbed for a year and he's getting a push. Tag matches will help him carry a match

Just shows that tag team wrestling could mean something in WWE if they gave tag team matches ten plus minutes on RAW, Smackdown and PPVs.

R-Truth vs. Cena in a Tables Match...

How the hell will this finish on time?

Cena's gonna get GOT...

If Truth wins this, it'd make him credible around the main event even if it means CM & Nexus coming out.

Mainevent is a Tables match. Excellent I like Table matches.

They always run over by about ten minutes so they is enough time for them. Punk should make an appearance in the mainevent.

WWE promoting the Cage match DVD as well. Some good DVD compilations released in recent months by WWE.

I agree Troy about the tag match, Riley would be a good addition with Rey... after all Rey isn't doing much besides feuds here and there and he could really help Riley out in a match like this. That tag match worked really well, I wouldn't mind it'd be a good way of putting Riley over here and there.

Mark Henry is getting a push because he will be winning the WHC most likely after Survivor Series, his contract runs out next year and I've heard he's getting one last run before he retires.

Yeah i see where your coming from, But it would give Curtis something to do and maybe get use out of that tag title oppertunity he won for finishing first in NXT. With Riley has the mouth piece and the eventual break out star it could work. Far fetched i know but just a suggestion to get use out of a guy they had in development for like 4 years.

That tag match was awesome

I do see Alex Riley holding the belt. Did anyone think Cena or Orton would be World Champs when they debuted?

Looks like Christian could face Kane and Orton vs. Henry on Smackdown after watching the preview...

That'd be quite interesting really.

Time for Truth/Cena
