I'm not usually this negative of WWE, but tonight was just a big mess. The biggest show of the year, just seemed rushed. I guess Vince has completely lost his mind and seemed to do whatever he could to piss people off or confuse them. There were way more negatives than there were positives to this show. And if I worked in WWE, I would be really upset over these past few days.

The undercard gets completely shat on. Usually some of these guys not on the WM card will get basic matches on one of the shows. But with the exception of RAW, both ECW and SD were mainly recap shows! So the only chance these guys get to be on WM is to be involved in a lumberjack match, then that gets bumped off the card!

The women got robbed as well. Those who were excited to be returning, dont even get introductions, or barely last 30 seconds in a match. Then the winner is Santino Marella in drag. So these women dont even get to win their match.

The celebrity appearances this year sucked as well. Nicole was fine in doing "God Bless America" since they do have someone sing that every year. But Kid Rock and Mickey Rourke seemed to take their good ol time being out there. Kid Rock gets about 10 minutes, and Rourke cant decide if he wants to get in the ring, he does slowly and gets 1 shot in on Jericho.

The IC title gets defended for the first time since I believe '02, and that gets turned into an under 30 second joke. So JBL's history making moment is quitting?

Most of the rest of the matches went fine, even the World Title match, which I expected Cena to win. Surprised CM Punk won MITB again. But with his win, I think he maybe the first guy to cash in and not win it. Steamboat really surprised me in the Legends match, even though Snuka and Piper looked horrible. Of course Shawn/Taker is the showstealer. Shawn's entrance was cool, and Takers suicide dive was unbelievable.

But the main event between Orton and HHH now should have not been the main event. IMO, this has killed Randy Orton's momentum, and I dunno what can be done to regain it. The finish even left me with a "what, that's it?" reaction, which should not be a typical WM reaction.
