The Good:
Undertaker vs. HBK: This match was perfect. 30 of minutes of back and forth brawling and by far the most unpredictable match of the night. Taker going 17-0 is what I hoped and predicted and I am pleased with the result, the only remaining question is is this a heel turn for HBK.
Hardy vs. Hardy: First of all, it was good to see Matt in real action since January and an Extreme Rules match did the trick. I felt there could have been a bt more to this match, I was hoping to see some sort of explosion but whatever. The only real problems with this match is it was too short, less than 15 minutes, this could have easily been a 25 minute match. What really pleases me was that Matt won. I have thought about Matt's promos, and you know what, he's right. Score one for Big Brother.
The Bad:
Tag Team Match as the Dark Match: WTF. This match was one of the few on the card I was looking forward to, the buildup has been great and we don't even get to see it. This was a crap move by the WWE and I hope they think about all the fans they ticked off next time they try this.
Christian Not Winning the MITB: I was willing to put money down, in fact I did put money down that Christian would have won the MITB and challenged Jack Swagger on the spot because for some weird reason there was no ECW Championship match on the card. Add to that CM Punk winning took all he momentum out of the MITB, because as muich as I like him, he's just a transitional champion.
IC Title Match: Again, WTF. A squash match. You have to be kidding me. This was JBL's last match and the WWE screwed him. I like Rey, but I thought JBL would retain and retire as champ. The WWE has really been an ass to it's retirees this year, first Victoria, then the Boogeyman and now JBL. Bradshaw, I hate you, but I salute you.
Cena as Champ: Now, I don't hate Cena, but I am sick of him as champion. He had it from November to February, and he'll have it until at least Backlash, which is a good month. We all knew he would win, but I'm still dissapointed.
No Batista: I thought for sure he would return and maul Orton. I know he's been injured, but if you've looked on WWE.com, he is appearantly healthy enough to promote in the Phillippines.
HHH vs Orton: The whole DQ stipulation ruined the match, this should have been a hell in the cell match and so much buildup amounted to very little.
Diva Battle Royal: Santina Marella, you're F***ing kidding me. What a waste, funny, but a waste. What should have happened is have Santino run in there and get mauled by all the Divas. And no Trish or Lita, what the hell. Good to see Molly and Victoria, but do you care about Joy Giovanni or Miss Jackie, I don't.
Overall Show: What a disappointment. The card had so much potential and the WWE blew it. I had a feeling with the Rumble and No Way Out being so great, the WWE was due for a dud, it's a shame it had to be this.
