I'm disappointed there wasn't the supposed United States match....wonder what happened to Daniel Bryan?

The "replacement" match was on before the event started properly!

Main event time. Miz (c) v John Cena for the wwe title. Great video packages for their entrances.

The us title match was bumped to a dark match (match before the televised portion of the event starts). It was also turned into a lumberjack match. The lumberjacks started brawling and so Teddy Long made it a battle royal. The Great Khali won the battle royal. I'm unsure if that means he is now the us champ, or if the battle royal was non-title.

EDIT: I think I misunderstood your post and you may have known what I wrote any way. Sorry. It's late, I'm tired. Given all the time they've wasted on lots of unnecessary things this evening, they could have easily included the sheamus/bryan match. I have no idea why it was bumped in favour of the beat down of a car that del rio was only using tonight, a talent show that wasn't particularly entertaining, a rock promo filled with long pauses, backstage vignettes that add nothing, and an overly long cole/lawler match

Was non-title, seemingly most of that time alloted to the us title match went into the afters of cole-lawler, and taker-hhh.

Also, orton was allegedly very very pissed at the order in the show and cutting the length of his match! Mainly because the likes of "SnookiMania" and COle-Lawler were ahead of their feud which had been a big part of RAW since the Rumble, which is understandable

Well that definetly sets up a Rock return to wrestling, was a joyous moment, but to me it still felt like a 4 hour RAW rather than the biggest event of the year for the comany overall

I agree about the overall "feel" of this event being disappointing with no "WOW" moment.

I still enjoyed the Undertaker match far more than any other though....I really wonder is this was his retirement match?
 




Agree with that, the only match that at the end felt like it deserved to be on the card, the rest really just felt out of place!! The sooner Vince McMahon hands the reigns of the company over to Stephanie and HHH the better IMO

I also thought after 4 matches with over 2.5 hours still to go "how are they going to fill the remaining time?" but in the end there was not enough time as several matches were cut too short (the 8 person tag team was almost a record quick time).

Where was the tag team, divas, intercontinental & United States championships?

I thought at the big PPVs all the belts were defended?

How on EARTH they actually manage to sell this stuff is and will always be completely beyond me. But each to their own I guess.

Enjoy.

You think this is surprising? Some people STILL watch X Factor and swallow it as REAL.

That.....sucked.

Not quite as bad as WrestleMania IX, but still pretty shit. 7

Orton/Punk, Taker/HHH and The Rock hitting Cena with the Rock Bottom were about the only bearable moments for me.
