Buehrle>Wood Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Awesome Raw I thought. Cena/Jericho and HHH/Orton were both awesome. The latter was much better than what they put on at Mania. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Edge wins when Show interferes and throws Cena through a huge spotlight. Very very good matches tonight. The 6 man tag was old school. Lots of psychology, back and forth, great finish. Christian running into Edge after his win was cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitetrain8601 Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Honestly, overall, this PPV was better than Wrestlemania. Nothing beats that Michaels-Undertaker match, but all the matches tonight were beyond solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing beats that Michaels-Undertaker match, but all the matches tonight were beyond solid. Gotta give WWE credit for getting it right Orton goes over, clean, and is the new WWE Champion while finishing what he started and taking out each member of the McMahon family. I thought it shoulda happened at Wrestlemania but its better late than never. Edge ending with a victory over Cena to close out their feud was also great. Mainly because I hate Cena, but more so to solidify Edge as THE top performer on Smackdown. Another good choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I also liked the slight tease of possible tension between Edge and Christian. This could lead to some interbrand feuding or it could flip over and lead to some sort of alliance, either of which I'd be absolutely fine with. It was time for Orton to go over, and credit H for agreeing to a clean finish. It mops up that storyline for now, while obviously leaving the door open for H to return for retribution later. All in all, a satisfying outcome for all three brands. Nicely done by the E tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHizzle85 Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 GREAT show tonight. I'm hoping that this will lead to some fresh new angles/programs on both shows. Shows how much the fans really dislike HHH at this point with the singing of "na na na nah, goodbye" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitetrain8601 Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Very nicely done. I think the Edge and Cristian angle will lead to an alliance, but I wouldn't be mad either way. Also, Jack Swagger was ten times the champion that Cena ever was. Seriously, I hate his gimmick and such, but he's a hell of an entertainer in the ring. That Orton vs HHH finish was pretty good. That's how they should've finished wrestlemania. I also wished that had Edge win cleanly, but at least he won. I think this will lead to HHH vs Batista for the number one contender match. For Cena, he'll fight someone and be champion again by Summerslam most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longshot7 Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 GREAT ppv last night - way better than Mania imo. Terrific matches given the time they needed. Loved the heels walking out with the belts - Edge is theman, and props to creative coming up with something newish for the end to that match. Loved that HHH took the pin in his match - wonder how long both guys will be out. Cena/Show on Raw, with Cena leaving in a month for a movie. Edge/? on Smackdown good good stuff.

The Critic Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I wonder if this was done to spice up their reality show? http://www.lordsofpain.net/news/2116.html Earlier today, we reported that Ric Flair's son Reid was arrested again over the weekend in North Carolina. Police records have now been released, revealing new details from the incident. According to the Mecklenburg County Sheriff's Department, Reid was arrested outside of the office of his father's former business, Ric Flair Finance. He was charged with four separate violations after being pulled over for drunk driving. Charlotte police pulled him over on Sunday afternoon at 2:48 PM and charged him with Driving While Impaired (DWI), Driving with a revoked license (revoked in March after a DUI), felony possession of heroin and a misdemeanor for possession of drug paraphernalia. His bonds totaled $15,000. TMZ.com has also picked up on the story and was quick to mention that aside from Reid Flair's recent string of arrests, Ric Flair's daughter Ashley was also arrested last year for fighting with Ric and a police officer. While Ric did not press charges, Ashley was still charged with assault on a law enforcement officer and resisting arrest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how NC laws work, but in IL 2 DUIs that close mean jail if you're guilty, now add the heroin to that, although in IL on your first few drug charges you can get them reduced if you can prove you can get into rehab, with Flair's money I'm sure he can arrange that, but the 2 DUIs will be tough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stuff last night, pleading Jeff to not put him through a table was very good heel stuff. That's one thing I'll never understand with today's WWE. A guy gets hurt, they completely take them off TV. Why? Imagine if in 1997, in the midst of Stone Cold's rise when he was injured during Summerslam they took him off TV for 6 months? Some people didn't even know Stone Cold was legitimately hurt because he was always on TV. Hell, they played an angle up where McMahon told him he couldn't wrestle and the fans ate it up even more.
