I stayed up until 4am to watch the Hell In A Cell match, nothing else on the card truly interested me, besides whether or not Jericho and Benoit could carry their opponents.
I sat down, putting aside the fact that I find both Michaels and HHH extremely dull, and sat hoping that the match was gonna be brilliant, because I knew that they were capable of pulling out a classic, much like Summerslam.
I ended up going to bed extremely disappointed by a slow match, with absolutely nothing memorable occuring at all. I watched the first 10 minutes, and slowly they completely lost my interest. It got to a point where I was reading the paper, looking up for any crowd reaction or JR orgasm.
The big spots in the match have happened a thousand times, the ladder/table spot could have been a truly memorable moment if they'd built it up as something major. But you just knew that Michaels was gonna come off with an elbow, and get the close 3. It was blatantly obvious, and the general feeling I had watching was that they were going through the motions, spot to spot, and you know what, the crowd were feeling that.
I will watch that match again to truly determine whether it was good or not, but watching it live, I was very unimpressed.
