This PPV was as good as it could be considering EVERYBODY knew who was gonna win the ME the best match IMO was the Miz/Morrison match definitely solid Punk & Morrison carried this 1 no doubt...overall shitty booking shitty endings good matches & a nice twist with MVP/Hardy...
6/10

The booking was just abysmal.

It was just one of those where you think "What could have been, had we not have another fucking PPV 2 weeks from now?" PPV's.

judgement day was a pretty good ppv

the first match was cena vs jbl and i expected it to be deeper in the match card. anyways, this was a pretty good match. jbl was beating the shit out of cena all match long. but in the end, jbl tried giving cena the clothesline from hell but cena countered it and turned it into the FU and cena won by pinfall. 7/10

the second match was john morrison & the miz vs cm punk & kane. i didn't like this match at all. it was a Blue selection to put on the match card. morrison & miz ended up winning by morrison doing his moonlight drive on cm punk, and kane didnt even help at all. 3/10

third match was jericho vs shawn michaels. now this was a very good match. jericho ended up giving hbk the walls of jericho but hbk reversed it into a pin and hbk won. 10/10


fourth match was mickie james vs beth phoenix vs melina. now this match was ok and it was cool seeing beth phoenix lift melina and beth phoenix at the same time. mickie james pinned melina after giving her the jumping ddt.7/10

fifth match was undertaker vs edge for the world title. this match was pretty borring. but taker won the match via countout and vickie came out and told taker that the title is still vacant because there is supposed to be no dq...:smh it was bullshit Blue-ness 4/10

sixth match was quite surprising because mvp comes into the ring and says he could take on anyone and beat them. matt hardy comes out and points out that he already beat mvp and shit like that. so he brings out jeff hardy and jeff hardy pins mvp after a whisper in the wind. 5/10

last match was hhh vs randy orton. great match. orton had so many oppurtunities to win this match via over the top but hhh kept pulling him down because of slowness.. :/
hhh ended up winning by giving orton a pedigree on the chair. hhh retains :happy: 8/10

and thats my judgement day review and overall i would give it 7/10

So, what happened to Mark Henry V Big Show then?


Fell asleep waiting for the Edge V Taker match to start.... :eek:/

Will have to watch the re-run tonight, but for now; damn I enjoyed HBK v Y2J... Wanted it to go on and on and on...

Wow, I thought Beth would have easily won that one.....


Oh, wow, Tripe H won! REALLY! I never would have seen that coming!!![/sarcasm].


Man, I used to like Triple H but now, I'm so tired of him winning. If he wasn't sticking his pole in Stephanie, I'm sure someone else would be able to step up and be the main star.

You mean someone like Cena, Orton or Batista... Or should I say...

THE WRESTLERS THAT HHH PLAYED A MAJOR PART IN BUILDING?


He's held the title for less than a month in total over the last two years+ so quit with all this no-one get's a look in bullshit...



Maybe he should put someone else over, I dunno.... Maybe Jeff Hardy? : P

I don't mean all the big names. Other guys don't get a push because of guys like Triple H and Cena. You can pretty much predict that the same guys are going to win. You have the same guys in the events, blah blah blah.


It's either that or they resort to bullshit storylines like McMahon having a love child...NO WAIT, IT'S FINLEY'S SON!!!!


Meh, entertainment is entertainment but I'd like to see more of the other talent step up than the same big name guys.

DAMN! You guys have probably heard of "filler shows" where it seems they serve no real purpose.. This is what JD felt like.

Don't get me wrong, there were no bad matches on the show, but there was nothing must-see either. Nothing has changed since we last saw RAW/SD and ECW. The champions are still the same, the WHC is STILL vacant, JBL and Cena, Edge/Taker and HHH vs Orton might still be going, and you could say the same about the Batista/HBK/Jericho angle.

Now on to the actual matches.

John Cena vs JBL was a weird choice for the opener. It was good for a while, then we got a LOT of restholds by JBL. I hated the finish with JBL dominating 90% of the match then getting beat with the FU out of nowhere, but I guess this will lead to a rematch at ONS (Hopefully, another I quit match between the two).

Miz and Morrison vs Kane and Punk was very good... but it only lasted about 7minutes. I loved that we had tag title match on a PPV, but these matches need to go longer if they want to establish the Tag Titles as something important. All 4 men brought their A game and Punk managed to turned the few boos he got at the start into cheers, mostly due to his in-ring work which was on point all throughout the match. I liked that Miz and Morrison retained the titles, but.. WHY IS CM PUNK JOBBING AGAIN!! I mean, really! We're supposed to believe that this guy is a threat to HHH, Edge, Taker or even Kane?

Shawn vs Chris Jericho was a GREAT match. Not as good as their WM 19 encounter, but easily the MOTN. I didn't like the anti-climatic finish, especially after the last 5 minutes which were just amazing, though to be fair, it keeps Jericho "somewhat strong". Fun fact.. Other than a couple of DQ wins against Orton and JBL, Jericho has yet to win a match on PPV since coming back... Take that for its worth.

The 3-way Women's match was good, but again, too short (About 5 minutes). Beth hitting the Double Canadian Backbreaker was one of the highlights of the show (For me, anyways) and though not as impressive as Beth hitting a Death Valley Driver on two dudes (She did it in her Indy days) it was still a sight to see. Mickie retaining was expected, as was Melina getting the pin. With that said, I'm actually looking forward to see what happens with Mickie in terms of her future opponents.

The Batista promo was short and to the point, I'm guessing we'll see a match between the two at ONS... Though I wonder where that leaves Jericho.

Edge vs Taker was well on its way to being as good as their Wrestlemania match (And better than their Backash match) but the finish just ruined it. Not only that, the finish seemed to have deflated the fans which weren't nearly as vocal for the matches that followed. I will say that Vickie got a TON of heat for the post-match announcement. I expect to see either a TLC or a HIAC match at One Night Stand.

MVP vs Jeff Hardy was just there. It was nowhere near as good as MVP's matches against Matt. It looks like Jeff is now using the Whisper in Wind as a finisher (He beat both Umaga and MVP with the move this week). But I have to ask this... WHY IS MVP GETTING JOBBED, AGAIN? Or an even better question... WHY IS HE JOBBING TO THE DRUGGIE? Did MVP pee in Vince's coffee or something? They guy is so talented and he's being wasted away (Much like Punk) for seemingly no reason.

HHH vs Orton was good, not great. It looks like both men were going for an old-school Cage match (IE:No Blood, no over the top spots) but it just felt flat. Some of it was lack of crowd reaction, some of it felt like Orton and HHH were just going through the motions. Cage matches are usually meant to be the big blow-off for a feud, but this just didn't feel like it. Because of that, I see another rematch at ONS.

All in all, if you bought the PPV, you got your money's worth. If you didn't watch the PPV, you didn't miss out on anything. Thumbs right in the middle for Judgment Day.

I didnt see the PPV but by the looks of it, it sounded like a pretty bad PPV and i can watch it (have it recorded) but i dont think it was worth the money
