5- Intercontinental Championship Match: Cody Rhodes (c) vs. Big Show

6- 12-Man Tag Team Match: Team Teddy Long (Santino , Kofi , R Truth , Zack ryder ,Khali ,??)
vs
Team John Laurinaitis (David Otunga, Mark Henry, Christian, Dolph Ziggler , Jack Swagger ,??)

7- Divas Tag Team Match: Beth Phoenix & Eve Torres vs. Kelly Kelly & Maria Menounos

8- Randy Orton vs Kane

Is it just me that is pretty unenthusiastic about these matches? Randy Orton vs Kane is a terrible fued, that started because of a fucking handshake. It is such a pointless match and both superstars should have been utilised better - Randy/Bryan/Sheamus as main event for example.

The Divas match should have been either - Beth/Kharma , Beth/Natalya or Beth/Trish. Instead we get the usual crap with some random celebrity.

Santino , Kofi , R Truth , Zack ryder ,Khali. What a bloody awful team. Why the hell did they go for this over the Money in the Bank match? So bad and it will be an absolute travesty if team Johnny don't win.

The Intercontinental match is a total waste of Rhodes as well. You have a guy with great wrestling ability so you put him in a match with Big Show. The storyline was already there for a Goldust Cody match which would have been a lot more entertaining. To be honest though I would have saved Booker's return for 'Mania against Cody.

The undercard could have been so good this year, but instead they give us this. Absolute crap, I may as well just not watch the first half (I will of course) because I don't find myself remotely interested in any of those matches.

What's everybody else's feelings on this?

Not the greatest undercard.

Ceebs with Big Show

The tag match i admit I'm intrigued as only see Johnny winning it unless we're going with the massive underdog storyline

Divas not arsed

Orton/Kane could be a better buil d shoul d be a good match but not massively interested as the build up has been poor.

5- Intercontinental Championship Match: Cody Rhodes © vs. Big Show - Cody could make this bearable. I doubt it but he could.

6- 12-Man Tag Team Match: Team Teddy Long (Santino , Kofi , R Truth , Zack ryder ,Khali ,??)
vs
Team John Laurinaitis (David Otunga, Mark Henry, Christian, Dolph Ziggler , Jack Swagger ,??) - Should be comedic to say the least, hopefully a multiman finisher fest happens.

7- Divas Tag Team Match: Beth Phoenix & Eve Torres vs. Kelly Kelly & Maria Menounos - Meh I'll go make a sandwich.

8- Randy Orton vs Kane - Should be a decent match.

Over all I'm looking forward to the tag and Orton vs Kane.

Apparently the plan was for an MITB match, and after the winner got injured they scrambled to create all of this. I don't know why they couldn't just throw Rhodes in there and let him win MITB.

Orton/Kane is what is wrong with WWE right now. Enough "You interfered in a random irrelevant match and attacked me for no reason whatsoever! I hate you now!" feuds! Build a storyline about something!!! The Teddy vs Johnny feud is good and has a whole lot of talent involved, but Teddy's team is horrendous. Assuming ADR and *random face jobber* are the last two, Johnny's team has a 7-0 world title reign advantage. The finish should be interesting, but it will probably be overbooked as all hell and it won't put anybody over. Big Show vs Rhodes may surprise you guys, they've shown a surprising amount of chemistry together and "Big Show Selling" works very well with Rhodes. If Show wins, he's the perfect guy to get the IC belt off of Cody so you can elevate him, as Show's always on TV. Cody retaining would be great as well. Divas' match is, well, a Divas' match, and it really speaks volumes when we get virtually the same match from Tribute to the Troops at Wrestlemania.

Unless you're Cena or Punk, we don't care about you.

Welcome to the mid-card, brother!

That really feels like a mid-card match though, and ever since Christian got hurt, it doesn't feel like Sheamus accomplished anything since Christian got hurt. #Ortonbookingdoesn'twork
