Indeed it is cool Chad, I dig that out of character stuff.

I have high hopes for this to be on the best PPV's of the year, and there's no reason that it shouldn't be.

I hope I'm not disappointed.

This is the first PPV I've ordered since ONS, so that should say something. However, I will be ordering Armageddon without knowing any of the matches, but I'll be there(and in the third row, wish I had noticed tickets went on sale at 9am instead of 10) so there ya go.

Third row where? Will we be able to see you guys? Well, take that back I'm not ordering Armageddon...I got that night off...

Anyhow...LOP is reporting that Batista vs. Booker is likely to main-event tonight, giving SD it's first PPV main-event on a co-branded event since the Rumble. I guess that's not that long...seemed longer...

I hope those two can step it up if given that slot...

Stinger, didn't you say this feud would end at Survivor Series like 5 months ago?

Am I the only one here who doesn't give a crap if Punk is eliminated or not?

Probably not.

I just don't see where anything good comes from Punk being eliminated whilst undefeated one week before his ECW title shot.

^^ I know what you mean, but I just don't care much for Punk. Don't ask me why, he's talented and all...I just don't think he's as great as people give him credit for.

Punk hasn't had the chance to really show what he can do yet...

I personally think the guy is obviously talented...but I'm hesistant to put any stock in him yet, because I have a hard time thinking he'll get pushed beyond upper mid-card ECW star...

Key word, yet.

If he's given the chance, his stock should rise ten fold tonight when he actually gets more then 3 minutes.

Punk/Orton, Punk/Edge, Punk/Helms, Punk/Nitro would all be greatness.

Punk needs tonight more than anything else. He can't afford to be pushed aside, this could be his one chance to shine before a non-ROH or non-ECW fanbase. He's running with the big boys in this match, and I think he can carry the ball and score a major league touchdown here.


I'm biased because I've been watching the guy for several years, whether treated like crap in TNA or putting on classic hour matches in ROH. The guy has more heart and determination that anyone I've seen in a long time, it just oozes out of him.

He's known among the Indy guys and ROH guys as a true "student of the game", I believe that. I think Triple H sees that too.

Tonight will be HUGE for Punk, and I'm actually looking forward to hearing what kind of reaction he gets on his PPV debut.

LMAO Crim.

Hope so, Stinger...

We need a new crop of great all-around wrestlers like we used to have in Jericho, Angle, and Guerrero...

It's almost impossible to replace guys like that, but those guys bring balance to the wrestling force.

OMG this is just fucking bad...

DX was the lone bright spot of an average night of wrestling with horribly long post-match bullshit and fiinishes...

I swear...this is so disappointing...

I found it very stupid how Team Rated RKO didn't eliminate even ONE person.

Personally, and I'm sure Cav will weigh in later with his thoughts, I found the show pretty entertaining. Not saying there was great wrestling, but just that I was entertained. Also, the show seemed to flow right along to me. There weren't any moments that had me going, "Oh God, how much longer will this last?"

That was a shitty PPV...

An incredibly disappointing night!

I can't believe that they managed such a crappy event with such a good card on paper...

Lita's post-match promo took the life out of me...that segment was just stupid.

Taker's post-match beatdown on Kennedy was a fucking carbon copy of the post-match beatdown he gave him at No Mercy.

The two top tier Survivor Series matches were above average, but still only marginally entertaining...

The main-event was alright...as were the US title and women's title matches...

Not a single match got more than 15-minutes...

Welcome to Survivor Series...IS...Raw!?!?!...where nothing wrestling-related gets time!

i don't think it was that bad, and it was certainly better than summerslam.

-First Blood was pretty good, nothing ground breaking....except that chair shot which rattled my teeth!

-The DX Match was what I expected, and I should have asked the question for predictions, would any team run the gauntlet....because I knew DX's team would....that's the strongest team i have seen in years. Entertaining to say the least.

-The Big Show/Cena match was bad....cena can't work in double team situations....he's just sloppy. Bright Spot: Lashley's Sambo Suplex was PERFECT!

-Batista/Booker was ok for what it was, those two are just sloppy regardless.

-Benoit/Guerrero was good...that feud will continue

-The Legends match, was once again, what it was....although Simmons getting eliminated that early was bunk...DAMN!

-And THANK GOD LITA IS GONE!!! (sorry Jen)

All in all it wasnt terrible, it was entertaining, and it was a step up from SummerSlam, but you are right, it did not reach it's full potential.

I'll take Summerslam over Survivor Series any day of the week for one reason...

As a whole, Summerslam (thanks to the last two matches) was worth a watch. I wouldn't say there was a single match worth watching on this show...

The only thing even remotely worth noting tonight was the crowd's response to CM Punk...

It was a good entertainment PPV. And Punk got a HUGE ovation/chant.

It wasn't a Glory By Honor V - Night 2 show by any means ;)

Outside of the DX/RKO match, I wasn't expecting good wrestling, I was expecting good entertainment, and I think I got that.

Though it's sad when Mickie/Lita could've been MOTN with about 3-5 more minutes.
