Wow, just came back from the show. It was incredible! A couple of duds, but man, the good matches were GREAT. It was a hot opener with Punk and Orton, Punk showing his wonderfully sadistic side as usual with all the little things, like slapping Orton in the face after that knee against the turnbuckle. I was scared for a second that a punt would happen and we wouldn't see Punk for a long while (what with this contract harumph going on), but thankfully I was wrong.
In what I thought was second best match of the night, the once Dashing Cody Rhodes really showed he can hang in there with the best of them. His promos are out of this world, on a freaking Mankind level, and tonight's match with Rey just propelled him forward. That Boston Crab on the guard rail up the steps was one of my favorite spots of the night. It also helped that they fought literally TWO feet away from us, twice. I was at the floor, just before they went up the stairs and the same time when they came back down the steps and Cody threw the trash can. Great stuff.
And of course...Christian winning. What can I say? Those were real tears being shed by those two in that ring, and I was a part of it. Match of the night.
The last match was meh. Some good spots, but Cena won which sort of ruined it. But after they went off the air, I could see Cena mouth to the camera man 'can I say it?' Then he ran towards the announce table, stood on top, and grabbed the mike. He told us how winning tonight was amazing, but something even better had happened today, and then he announced that we had captured bin Laden. That was a truly amazing moment. I couldn't believe it. The whole crowd started shouting USA! USA! It was buzzing. Phenomenal.
You were there? Man, despite my frustrations with Cena winning the title, I bet it was a fun PPV to be at live. There were some really exciting matches.
And you know what? Hearing about Cena's announcement after the show went off the air, and your arena busting out a USA chant, makes it worth it to see Cena have another reign.
Glad you had fun.

To anyone thinking that Cena will hold the title til WM next year and face The Rock for the title.
