A few comments on the show:
- Since Jackie winning the belt totally destroyed any and all remaining credibility, I actually found Chavo Classic's win pretty hilarious. I was against it first, but the way they played it out was pretty comical.
- Eddie passing out at the end was the realization of an idea I've had to create a little suspense on the show. The idea would be to mix a bit of reality into the kayfabe when doing an injury. Most of the time, when a wrestler gets hurt in the ring, it's pretty obviously fake, but I thought it'd be interesting if a wrestler got injured (in my scenario, the wrestler was actually taken out and missed the next few months) and it seems extremely realistic, even to, say, smarks. That was it tonight. The Dudley's, who've been super untame, were confused and concerned, and even JBL was kind of speechless before making a quick pin, but he didn't gloat about it, or at least they didn't show it. To a smark, that could have been construed as him getting the pin to end the match ASAP so Eddie could get help (as if he had really suddenly collapsed). Good suspense, and good blurring of the lines between kayfabe and reality. We need more stuff like that.
