Didn't get to watch it, and it probably isn't as good as it seems, but one thing I'm SO glad to see... EDGE IS WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION AGAIN!!!  Ah, that guy is great. Pulled a Kurt Angle routine it seems haha. Triple H losing to Jeff Hardy... Yeah, that was slightly a shock! Especially since it seems Hardy won't be participating in the Rumble, since he has a WWE title shot  That's definitely something surprising... Jeff Hardy having a WWE title shot at a PPV. But yeah, good on Triple H, I think. Jericho losing wasn't a surprise. They pushed him way too fast. But a feud with him and JBL will definitely be interesting, seeing as both are great on the mic. |

I didn't get to watch either but like what I've read mostly...
Edge as World Champ is just amazing. Here comes Edge vs 'Taker in the Main Event.
And JBL vs Y2J seems to be in the works for Wrestlemainia.

It was a fairly good ppv for the most part. The pop Jericho got when he pulled Orton back to the center of the ring with the Walls Of Jericho was insane. People were going nuts thinking he was going to win.
I kind of missed out on the whole Edge thing as my attention was diverted. I know I was listening and thinking "fuck, how is Edge running in every 2 seconds and getting destroyed?" I then heard the 3 count and look at the screen to see two Edges crawling for their life to the back with the real Edge holding up the title.
Hardy vs HHH was really good with Jeff still trying be somewhat buddies and going for the whole handshake thing. Triple H just slapped the piss out of him a few times lol.

Jericho actually got a good pop for once? Jeez, the fans have SUCKED ASS lately live. It's a shame that true entertainment has been replaced with Cena entertainment to the "new" generation of fans. Bunch of retards. Glad to hear he got a response tonight, though. He's been ace since his return.

meh, Edge as champ.....I'd still rather have Taker, but anyone is better than Batista....even Khali lol.... Jeff defeating 3H was definately a shock, I expected 3H to go over on Jeff....now it will be interesting to see how this plays out, I bet 3H will be the one to win the rumble after all he does want to own every record just about in the WWE...... JBL and Jericho, looks to be interestin, JBL is good on the mic, he just yells out everything lol.... but still looks to be a good matchup. Where oh Where is Umaga, just when I was begining to really like the character he just disappears off screen for no reason  Why don't they just let MVP go over cleanly on people, he is a good wrestler and has a good gimmick going, but it will only be a matter of time before he is World Champ, and I think he will get the WH title before Kennedy. |

Why Taker? He's good to have to make a match a main event but I can't see him being a very active champ anymore. Edge deserves a proper run as champ, he's been shit on enough...so screw Taker.
You really think MVP has a good gimmick? He's a good wrestler but that's as far as it's gone so far. Otherwise, he's all very 'meh' and boring...the segs with him and Hardy were very beginner efed style for me. World Champ? I seriously hope not...Kennedy actually has the presence of a champion, MVP does not.

Kennedy, presence of a champion....I don't think so. Kennedy at first I thought he would be a good champion, but lately he's been.....Meh.....so so.
Taker has been the one who has been placed in the title picture to put over all of the past champions during his career(Bret Hart, HBK, Lesnar, Batista, Yokozuna) and he's been screwed out of all of those matches, maybe it's just the storyline who knows, but not to take anything away from Edge, Taker is number 1 in my book, and I'd prefer him over Edge until he retires, then Edge can have it all lol......But I guess the match up served it's purpose and that was for Edge to form his faction, either way, i'm still happy with a new champion, just as long as Batista doesn't go to raw and piss on Ortons title run......

To each his own... Edge's win sets up the Streak/Title vs The Streak at Mainia.
Kennedy and MVP both have bright futures... Kennedy's feud with Michaels if continued and done right could be a BIG match come Mainia.

That JBL/Jericho bit on Raw was incerdible. See... Why can't they put together more great mic workers like this more often?

heaven forbid that Vince was ever clever lol.....
I'd have to watch that segment on youtube cause I missed Raw.
but I think that Jeff Hardy is ready to become the WH champion, or at least he's on the brink of it, since his return IMO he's alooot better than his brother Matt.

Actually, I kinda agree that he's been WAY better since he returned. I think giving him a chance at the scene is great by WWE, showing that they can actually push the "unexpected". He's showing small shades of getting better on the mic, too. He won't be WWE Champ, obviously, but I think it's nice that he's being given the chance.

Main event jobber, ay? He's hardly done anything with the IC division to warrant that step up lol. He's one to get the crowds pumped, nothing more. He has no personality outside of his image, no mic skill at all, and being a glorified backyard wrestler removed from his element doesn't help, neither does his history of not taking his job seriously...main event my arse...
