Within the last couple years or so, the booking swerves you're supposed to find awesome you see coming a mile away, and the guys you want to have the belt jerk the curtain.

Lets be fair here. Just because some of us think Cena sucks doesn't mean him winning the rumble was shitting on the rumble. In fact, it was far more shocking and fresh (exciting) than previous years where the winner was labeled from a mile away and followed a clear path to the win. At best, it was between two guys (one from each brand).
Even though Cena sucks, at least it was a swerve. Taker winning again would have been pointless. |

I may be in the minority, but I thought the limo angle could have been cool. It certainly started off good.

Incidentally, it isnt just Cena's win that constitutes defication here, it's also pissing away the title shot a month later at a lower-tier PPV that was the BIG insult. |

Wow.
I completely forgot the PPV was today... and now I'm pretty angry about it. So I checked the 'highlights' package of the main event on WWE.com and JR's commentary was outstanding. |

I don't know which was worse. Hardy winning, or Orton losing.
Gonna be interesting to see what goes down on RAW tonight. |

Probably has to do with HHH. Either they didn't want to job him, HHH didn't want to job (which I actually see as the least likely believe it or not), or they're saving the Hardy over HHH job for a later date i.e Mania. I see the latter as the most likely, but who knows.

One of my biggest pet peeves of brand extension is when a new champion or big event occurs in the world of Smackdown, and it isn't the lead off of Raw.
I know this is because of the seperate brands, but Raw traditionally captializes off of buzz like this before brand extension and was always great because it adressed the topic while it was hot. In a better time, todays buzz would be culminated with Jeff Hardy kicking off Raw, and maybe even a big answer to the hotel attack. Thing would go places while they were still fresh in peoples minds. Instead, we watch a show by the same promotion that has nothing to do with the PPV's defining moment, and the buzz is lost. It's practically an afterthought by the time friday rolls around. |
