Damn nice seats! I just got done watching a replay of it...great matches (IMO of course) but the thing I was happy about was the stage, I'm happy with what they went with size and presentation and it made it look a hell of a lot better.

In my opinion, Legacy went over HUGE. The WWE (and Legacy themselves) really established themselves last night. -I love how Legacy, while not "friends" (i.e. Dibiase dislikes Orton), are all decidedly on the same page and are operating as a major unit. -I love how Dibiase and Rhodes "knew their roles" and helped Orton out at all times. -I loved the in-ring psychology displayed by Rhodes. Dibiase was amazing as well. -I loved how in the end, Orton brought in Rhodes and Dibiase to celebrate his victory. I am so glad that Team Legacy has dropped Manu. The dude just didn't fit. Overall - team legacy looks great...and they really went over last night. ![]() |

I liked how they booked Cody eliminating Goldust. It was almost as if Orton made him do it, but then was telling him trust me on this. Ted had the crap beat out of him but he kept surviving. One of the better booking/build up jobs they've done in a while. |

I am dissapointed. Some homeless guy promised me that Jesus would return live on PPV so I expected this with bated breath.
When he didn't come out to align himself with Jack Swagger, I immediatly reported my displeasure to the local authorities, noting that prediictability was my main concern. Vince McMahon will be hearing from my lawyers. |

I agree. Three is the way to go. It reminds me of when they eliminated Slaughter from being one of McMahon's on air cronies. Four is just one too many. Three really works well for something like this.

Wasn't able to watch it live last night, but I stayed away from any wrestling sites until I had the chance to watch a repeat stream earlier today. I came in right at the start of the WH title match, so the first time around I was able to see the two world title matches and the Rumble, which were the only things I was really interested in anyway.
I loved the "Let's Go Cena"..."CENA SUCKS" chants throughout most of the match, and for the first part of the match the chants were more interesting than the in-ring stuff itself. The ref bump was pretty inevitable, but the match at least got interesting after that point, if not only to see what would happen with the HBM storyline. Had a feeling Michaels would give the SCM to JBL (sort of called it in Tipsters), but the finish was pretty obvious once Michaels also hit Cena. Whatever...at least it progressed the storyline, even if it went on a bit long. Edge/Hardy was good as it usually is, since they know each other so well. Everything's pretty much been said about this match already. Matt's turn was executed perfectly...I kind of had a feeling of it happening when he came in and Christian didn't make an appearance before that, but it was still great. The staredown after the chairshot was priceless, as was Edge's expression after it happened (never taking his eyes off Matt and keeping the look of disbelief on his face the whole time). I liked the Rumble overall, since there were smaller confrontations throughout most of it. I liked Legacy working together as a team and making it to the end, and actually liked the fact that it was Trips that eliminated Rhodes and DiBiase instead of Orton making them jump over themselves or whatever...they were booked to look pretty strong for once. The only thing I didn't really like was the giant clusterfuck the match got to be for awhile...too many guys in the ring for anyone to do much else than finishers and punching up against the ropes, and too much to watch at once. Santino getting eliminated immediately and then crying "but I wasn't ready!!" was priceless. Last edited by RatedGSuperstar; 01-26-2009 at 04:40 PM. |

The only low-point for me was the fact that it was too obvious that Orton was going to win (i.e. on the verge of being 'fired' by Vince the RAW before the rumble, Jericho's backstage stuff with Orton, etc.).
I also think it's obvious that Orton will go over Cena at Mania. |
