Thanks!

[LionDen]

Yeah, I was not especially impressed with this show. Alot more to say but to tired lol.

I'm going to have nightmares all damn night now. "HBK taps! Cena is the champion, Cena is the champion! My god what a match!"

Did the announcers even watch that match? It was a wreck. I thought HBK could carry anyone, but it seemed that Cena just couldn't keep up when it was pure 101 wrestling.

[Nick, Your Indie Lover]

My god! You guys are complaining about Kennedy losing? He is probably the best thing to happen in the WWE in a while MITB is huge and he deserves it.

MVP not going over was just a waste of time. All of this hype and build up and storyline that came out of nowhere, and Beniot wins. MAkes no sense.

Ashley vs. Melina, waste of time.

ECW Originals vs. New Breed was okay. New Breed not going over was weird since just about all of the Originals are in the Dog HOuse and NEw Breed actually has talent.

Kane vs. Khali was how it was expected = short domination on Kane

Taker wins, best move of the night. Lashley wons, which was good.

Now, there was a nasty rumor about HBK leaving FOrd Field when he recieved the news he was losing. I dont blame him.

thanks for the live play-by-play!

I loved the PPV!

I dunno why everybody over analyses it. Just enjoy the thing for what it is!!

BTW Kennedy winning was IMO always going to happen. I just hope Edge is OK. Jeff should be, but Edge looked BAD.

[Platinum_Lies]

If that is true then the WWE really needs to clean its act up. If you have HBK pissed, then you likely have guys like HHH and probably Benoit pissed. Was that sign of no respect at the end of the match a legit event? It is unusual for a face and a legend the stature of Michaels not to "respect' his opponent. He shoke Hogan's when Hogan beat him.

I would have had little problem (some yes, but not as much) if Cena had pinned HBK. But instead, they have to do the ultimate "f*ck the fans" and have HBK tap to Cena.

Detroit didn't seem to pleased either, I heard quite a few "bullsh*ts" from the fans, especially when the mics were focused closer on the crowd.

Only let down of the night for me was MITB match becuase edge was taken out of it

Way too many high impact spots. Not only was that one just nasty to watch, but it stopped the match for a few minutes. Most of the spots after that also tended to slow the match down too much. More people, more ladders, and more dangerous moves does not mean a better match. They need to trim it back down to 6 men next year, and only have one, maybe two ladders available.

[apex]

The lamest looking move of the MITB was the spears all in a row and the spear to punk i think it was when he had the ladder around his neck. But Randy did pretty good i though plus i like the rko from the ladder. They could have just not had Booker and Finaly in there and the match could have been better to.

[LionDen]

The spear from Edge on to Punk while the ladder was aorund his neck was good IMO, Punk seemed like he was having trouble either controlling the ladder around his neck or it was just to heavy. Edge got him out of that which was good.

I was wondering what was up at the end of the HBK vs Cena match. When Cena went to shake HBKs hand and HBK refused and walked away. Scripted or not? I thought it was bullshit that he tapped to Cena. I hate Cena.

I liked the Cryme Tyme segment. It had Jimmy "Mouth of the South" Hart, I.R.S., and Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat.

[apex]

I was wanting a SCM right ot cena when he tryed to shake his hand hopefully a rematch at backlash and HBK wins.

I am wondering about the handshake to. It could be to start a feud, we will not know till the rumours are proven.

[~Burning Hitman~]

WOW yes atleast Kennedy and Taker won at Mania. I was Hoping for Kennedy to win the MITB for so long. I hope he cashes it it aganist Cena at his weakest point like edge did. SO he can be known as Mrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. WWE CHAMPION.......CHAMPION

[yakreig]

Has anyone seen any news on Edge's injury?

[LionDen]

WOW yes atleast Kennedy and Taker won at Mania. I was Hoping for Kennedy to win the MITB for so long. I hope he cashes it it aganist Cena at his weakest point like edge did. SO he can be known as Mrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. WWE CHAMPION.......CHAMPION

lol having to hear Mrrrrrrr Money in the Bank is going to bad enough :kellie:

I have not seen anyhting on Edge yet. I wonder if the match had to change since he got hurrt or was it a 'work'. If i find any news I will post it in latest news as I am sure anyone else will.

[Bad Boy]

looks and sounds like a good PPV.... many spoilers gave it away before hand, and damn its bout time Batista lost that damn title, interestin to see Taker as World Champ... and Kennedy as MITB is good too... good PPV overall... and some of the losses were unexpected, but still awesome job Lion...
