| Decent enough PPV with the end to be honest the way it should be. Cena lucky to get the win, and Nexus with a lot of credit took out a chunk of a team with a massive number of title reigns between them. Bret couldn't be pinned so that was a good way out, and Edge/Jericho kept their characters intact. Bryan was put over after taking half Nexus out himself. So Cena can't sell, there's been many of the top names that never could.
Looking at the Raw tapings for the next 2 weeks they are doing a good job of still putting them over. Top marks to Jericho for all he's doing in this. I fall in & out of liking him but he's doing a great job. Plus Miz is breaking the glass ceiling at last.
The house shows are booking Nexus in 2's & 3's against the likes of Orton/Cena, plus Smackdown stars. I think the taking otu of the firt match will lead to them spreading on Smackdown.
On another note, Taker looked rough .. I said a few months ago that the match with Mysterio where he broke his cheek was the first time he's stunk the place up. I hope it was a one off as I'm a top mark for everything he's done.

His merchandise sells to the kids who nag their parents for it.
For the rest of us it's annoying as he's booked like Superman.

Wrestling-wise? Probably nil, like most of us. However, money-wise:
T-shirts
Caps
Wristbands
Belts
Posters
Etc etc
If people stopped buying his merch, they'd be no reason for them not to turn him heel.
Not seen it yet, but like the sound of this Bryan return.

| WWE love Cena's work ethic in the ring. I've seen him have great matches in main events despite his lack of talent. CENA CENA CENA!

Had classics against HBK, but as Jim Cornette said - Shawn Michaels could have a good match with the couch...

Sweet, thanks mate. Hey just out of interest, who would people rank as the 3 best ever wrestlers that they've seen (either live or on TV)? Mine would have to be:
Shawn Michaels
Bret Hart
Kurt Angle
Appreciate the results are going to be largely influenced the age and era that you grew up in, but just thought would be interesting.
