Yeah, but I had a mindblock about something that WOULD sound good that wouldn't be a bad ripoff of a current ppv. Now I'm stuck with it.

• Paul Barer on commentary interesting choice.

Paul was a temporary fill-in. Taz's regular partner should be returning soon and things will get 'splained when he/she does.

• You seemed to have forgotten Wade Barrett’s entrance.

When I look at the show, I see Barrett's (and later Serena's) Impactrons under a nested spoiler tag. Taz and Paul just didn't have much to say about them.

• Not sure what the Danielson/Barrett match was supposed to show, we got no back story on either man so we don’t know if this was a filler match or this is part of a bigger feud. I like, however, that Danielson wins via cattle mutilation. • Edge/Harris seems to be another good match but we’ve gone through two matches now and neither of them progressed a story. Harris was trying to win to make Dustin feel better, well that’s not good enough I want storyline progression.

It's coming, fear not.

... • Jey/Ki seems to be an interesting match that is designed to make Ki look good, but maybe a promo after the match to let us know where is head is at would have helped there. I don’t know what he’s about just that he can beat one half of a mediocre tag team. • Kane allied with Abyss, I’m intrigued. Apprently they are both allied with Paul Barer which is good for a creepy little crew. And you put Kane’s mask back on? Why is that, I hope we find out.

Things will be revealed in time. Can't let ALL the cats out of the bag in week 1.

... • I have absolutely no idea why Lacey was so pissed at Serena. If I know some back story there the ending would have made sense otherwise it didn’t. And you missed a good opportunity to at least mention that members of the Family are losing and perhaps they’re falling apart with the loss of Orton.

I guess I DID miss that chance. Oh well, next time. There are plans for the women's division (not as many as UCE has) that will develop.

... • Were you trying to be comedic by making everyone stop once Jarrett uttered “Slap Nutz”? If you weren’t than that’s just silly.

I wasn't trying to be comedic. It was meant as a big sound that gets everyone's attention and then they realize who's talking.

• Not a big fan of the whole “no touching” policy, but sometime it can be used well to further tensions, I hope this is where you’re going.

I think the payoff will be worth it. Hopefully you will too.

Thanks for your feedback.

UCE, even with the semi ridiculous name was immemsely entertaining.

They all are at this point, excellent job guys.

Thanks for your feedback on my feedback. I encourage all other bookers to defend their ideas. I write my little bullet points as I read the show so some early complaints might be explained later on. I just want the bookers to get a stream of consicisness view of what I'm thinking while I'm reading for the first time.
