Lethal vs Haas: A nice opener, but it was obvious who was going to win lol. You used Haas technically like normal, and the match flowed well because you kept both using their right styles.
Lethal promo: Kinda generic new guy stuff, but the interruption from Chavo was welcome. This should be a good feud between the two.
Orton/Excell: Orton was pretty down well, and I guess the Excell character is just a generic face, so that worked well. I thought this was a nice promo, and it gives us two big matches for next week.
Lance Cade vs Londrick: Interesting billing of Cade as the ‘Lone Ranger’. Cade was pretty dominant throughout, minus when Londrick used their speed. Interesting finish with the F5. I’m seeing a big Cade push here.
Cryme Tyme promo: This was awesome imo. It really felt like I could see it happen, and it just seemed so natural. I’m guessing Shad may get a push as a heel out of this eventually.
Shad vs Mark Henry: You sold Shad as being amazingly strong throughout the match, with things like Shad actually taking Henry down with a shoulder block, being more powerful with a push and using the Dominator. Was a lot better than I expected, and I was fairly impressed with the action.
Morrison/Miz vs SGS: Really surprised you had Rhodes and Smith go over here. I really felt as if Miz and Morrison would go over throughout. Finish of the match was kind of unique, and I’m not sure I have ever seen Smith come off the ropes with a double axe handle. Besides that it was good.
CM Punk promo: Interesting. It was well structured, with each man coming out. For some reason, I think neither of these four men will leave Backlash with the title. I’m guessing Lance Cade will be champ.
MVP vs HBK: Wow, this was a nice long match, and is MOTN so far. The ending was a classic heel finish for MVP to get the win, and it did shock me a bit, especially after he worked over the leg of HBK. Match flowed pretty well, and sets up a future match, which is always good.
Orton promo: Orton came off as the smug, arrogant heel he is.
MVP promo: You are really having MVP come off as ‘dangerous’ in this feud, and I am liking it. Nice promo from MVP, laying down the challenge.
Undertaker vs Jeff Hardy: Wasn’t filled with as many spots as I thought. You had Jeff go for the leg drop off the top of the ladder, and the Swantom, but not too much else. It didn’t have to be too spotty to be good though. I loved Orton’s interference and him taking the briefcase down. Aftermath with Cena getting RKO’ed was good, and Taker came out on top. I’m guessing that won’t happen at Backlash.
AC: I think this was a good comeback show, which either enhanced talent or set up Backlash. You were very smart in the way you wrote it and it was a joy to read. Great show mate.
