They gave it a good 25 minutes. The reason I think it failed was because:

1. No matter what main evented that evening, it wouldn't of been as hot as Taker/HBK, the crowd were burnt out (see Mania 18, HHH trying to main event after Hogan and Rock stole the show)

2. Hitting both finishers in the first minute destroyed it for me, what else was there for the crowd to pop for? No teasing of it or anything. What are they? Backyarders, it makes no sense that later on they are reversing the finishers after 20 minutes, when they shouldn't have as much about them as they do in the first minute of fucking match

3. Considering that HHH was trying to avenge his family, there was very little actual intensity shown IMO

4. Like 3, if someone had done all this to me and my family, I would of been fighting more and wrestling less, too much attempted wrestling psychology for my liking, this should of been much more of a brawl

5. HHH, just isn't that over, time to except it
Spot on. There's just no way HHH is going to be a babyface if he's tied to the McMahons. Even more so against a heel as cool as Randy Orton.

HHH is in the main event because Vince and Steph love him. Steamboat vs Jericho would have been a better main event for chrissake.

No, it's not because of the McMahon thing, the, it's because I don't buy him as a main event face period anymore

I understood, point was that combined with the McMahon thing ment the crowd didn't know how to react, if they had any interest at all.

The McMahons are over, no doubt about it, Raw last Monday was white hot, hottest I've seen in years, the problem was the match structure and placement IMO
