Gonna watch it when I wake up sometime late this afternoon.

This opening match is OK, but once again watching Smackdown just before RAW made it a little odd considering they just had Shamus and Bryan in another of these kinds of matches with Miz and Punk instead of Kane and Orton.

Still, that's just a staple of the pre-PPV build, especially pre-WM.

Anyways decent match, though the ending is how I thought the WM match with Shamus/Bryan would end, so now I have no idea where they are going to go and I could see AJ costing Bryan.

So glad Hornswoggle and Cole are involved in this Johnny vs Teddy thing. I'm sure they won't end up both in the ring during or after the match, and won't lead to a dumb comedy spot where Cole gets his ass kicked by the midget. :smt011

Hopefully it leads to JR taking over for Cole, that would make it worth it.

On the most positive side, it really does seem like they are allowing Santino to do a little more in the ring and actually show some wrestling skills. Not a lot mind you, but a little tiny bit more. Maybe they are finally realizing the crowd loves the guy and that he could be a much bigger deal than what they've used him as. I'm not saying he should be a world title guy or anything, just that he should be something more than a total joke in the ring.

Miz on the team is cool, Ace fucking up was funny, I hope Miz costs them the match and then flips off Ace.

Jericho saying Punk is a bastard made me think of Big Boss Man, which made me laugh.

Jesus fucking Christ, Punk is murdering Christian. :shock:

I didn't like the opening match....Kane should be destroying everyone just for entertainment not teaming with someone at random, they always do this to him. However I am glad WWE put Chris Master's entrance to good use

I was thinking Rey would come out for Team Teddy but not, I honestly don't know what they are going to do, Team Johnny looks strong with talent while Team Teddy looks like Job Squad version B. Miz costing them the match would be sweet though. I hope Christian is not legit hurt that would suck.

I think both champions will retain, there is so much more that can be done with them, and Daniel's gimmick works better as a champion anyway.

I can't get into HHH vs. Taker, I would have rather seen him fight someone new. I guess it will be interesting to see what Vince respects more HHH's ego or Untertaker's streak

Cena cut a great promo but so did Rock, if I have to pick a favorite I'll go with Cena, I agree a lot with what Cena is saying about Rock to an extent. I was always a huge fan of the Rock'S mic work but never of his ring work.

That was good stuff. Punk fucking murdered Christian, and his insane ranting towards Jericho was great.

I hope Christian can wrestle going forward and this isn't a way to get him back off TV for another few weeks/months.

Even if it was just for a moment, it was nice to see Hawkins get some offense in on Clay. Hopefully he faces a non-jobber soon and has a real match.

Boo, Christian is out for Sunday.

Hopefully it's not going to be much more than that and he can return next week or whatever.

I am enjoying the Cody vs Big Show feud solely because of Cody's promos. Tonight was another good one.

The new Albert promo was awesome.

Punk's interview was fantastic.

There is no way I'm watching any of this Kali/Henry match beyond the finish.

Teddy getting tossed in the ring was cool. Liked seeing the rest of the team block the ring so Henry could murder Teddy. I also liked the guys showing up at different times so they could knock people over, and then the Kofi move to get in the ring was awesome, but the catch for the World's Strongest Slam was a great surprise.

Booker as the final member of the team is a nice surprise. I feel he can still move pretty well in teh ring, especially for a short period of time like what would be asked of him in this sort of match.

Wait, The Rock is out here, but we haven't seen Undertaker, HHH, or HBK yet. Are they really not going to be on the show, or will they combine these two things into one segment. I know there was a video earlier summarizing the feud, but this is the last show before WM.
