I was kinda disappointed with this PPV. I realize it wasn't a big PPV, but I was still hoping for one of the 4 titles to change hands. Instead, everything felt very squashy or heel pushy with the exception of Hardy and Henry. Here are my ratings.
Mark Henry vs Hardy: ** Just ok. I liked that Hardy focused on a body part and it really took Hardy to a new level of wrestler for me. But, the match dragged in places (as every Henry match does). I agree with the previous comment on a Twist of Fate knocking out Mark Henry.
Divas Match: 1/2 * Santino being involved is half the rating here. This math was stupid as are most diva matches. I really wish we could remove the diva division and reinvent the cruiser division. So much more entertaining.
Kane vs Rey Mysterio: ** 1/2 I was pissed with the ending here and felt that Rey should have went over on Kane. Rey has been misused as of recent in my opinion and having him win this match would have helped him alot considering hte match was decent.
Promo time: *** Decent promo, even though there were a couple of botched lines and the 'boring' chant. Dibiase and Rhodes do little for me, but they were all right here.
Batista vs JBL: DUD. Squash. Here is the 'W' you asked for, Mr. Baptista.
Taker vs Big Show: *** I was not happy with how they allowed Show to 'Knock out' Taker, but other than that it was a good match between too behemoths. Couple intresting bumps taken by Taker, but I would expect that from him.
HHH vs Hardy: **** A good back and forth match. Had Hardy actually gotten the win there at the end, I would have went with **** 1/2. You could feel the crowd pulling for Hardy and both guys did a good job of selling if you asking me.
Kozlov segment: DUD. This promo ruined the pop for HHH winning for me. Kozlov doesn't intrest me.
Y2J vs HBK: *** 1/2 Very slow at points. I wish they could have kept a faster tempo, but I understand that a brawl can be like this so it's cool. The bump with Jericho falling out of hte ring off the ladder was pretty insane. These two gave a bunch, but I felt like I wanted more when it was done. Cade should have stayed out of the fuggin ring as well. He came in and I was like..."GHEY". Trips and Hardy was better IMHO.
