I won't be ordering. If it doesn't have London & Kendrick confirmed, I don't order. They're the only guys that really motivate me in today's wrestling scene.
Chris Benoit vs. MVP will likely be good, but it will be up on Daily Motion tomorrow, so why pay for it? If CM Punk vs. Elijah Burke is any good, the same will go for it. The only other matches worth watching sound like Shawn Michaels vs. Randy Orton and The Hardys vs. Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch. Neither really captures my imagination, though, and I can live without seeing them.
This tri-brand stuff is shit. The main events are weak, and the WWE takes it as an excuse to go at a snail's pace with their storylines. It's disgusting that we are seeing the same watery "ECW" main event twice. The Great Khali does not count as a challenger to the WWE Title, and my prediction is that Edge vs. Batista will be worse than people think it will be. It's kind of funny that Kane is on the poster for the event, yet he isn't even slated to be on the card. SmackDown! has a bunch of matches set-up, yet most of them aren't even on the card.
* Edge vs. Batista
* Chris Benoit vs. MVP in 2/3 Falls
* Kane & The Boogeyman vs. William Regal & Dave Taylor
* Finlay vs. The Miz
* Chavo Guerrero vs. Jimmy Wang Yang
* Matt Hardy vs. Mark Henry
* Deuce & Domino vs. Paul London & Brian Kendrick
There's a Judgment Day card, and it didn't even need to dip into RAW's roster. Would it be as successful as this Judgment Day is going to be? Probably not, but it would be better, just for the mere fact that it has layers, which is critical to a good show. It can't all just be main event.
