Not sure how I feel. The first tag match was a bit slow, but decent. The ECW and World Title matches sucked, but I didnt have high expectations. How apropo is it that the new ECW's title match ended on a countout...

Did Batista blow out his knee or was that a work, if so it sucked to high hell because the match was terrible. Didn't make Kennedy look strong at all except for maybe the early going. John Cena vs Umaga was naturally the best of the 3 title matches, but doesn't really mean it was good. Was about what I expected, with those 2 it could have been worse.

Now here's where I'm torn. The Rumble Match itself. I was really pleased in the early stages. Liked the way things were going. Glad to see how Edge entered early, loved Kane in it and Sabus elimination, thought sandman got shit on but wasn't suprised. Personally, I think it was well booked for CM Punk for the most part since they made him look strong. Liked how they let the ring fill up with a lot of real stars. Rated RKO eliminating the Hardys may play into who they drop the tag titles to, Kane/Booker..okay fair enough....

Then...Khali enters...I knew this would be shit. I knew he'd piss me off, and the first thing I'll say is thank god he didn't win the goddamn thing. But he shit on 6 or 7 of the top young guys. All for nothing but to make him look strong, lame. That pissed me off but since Edge and Orton were still in and Khali went out I rebounded.
Then Orton and Edge go out like chumps back to back. HBK and Taker in the final two. I'll give them credit that its probably the best final 2 in a while if not ever since it turned into a match in itself. But... Wow, two 40 yr olds shit on the 2 most promising young heels who should have gotten the win. At this point all I can hope for is Shawn Michaels to get the hometown win, but no. Anticlimactic and lame. Could have been much worse.....but could have been MUCH better.
