I will be watching tonight will anybody else. This is one of the most solid cards in a while Orton-Benoit, IC Title, Edge-Angle, US Title and so much more. I hope the card lives up to the hype and I also hope that at the end of the night the World Title is around the waist of the legend killer Randy Orton.

This Canadian crowd sucks. They make no sense.

SummerSlam thoughts:

 

Opening match was decent, but it needed more Rey Rey. I'm sorry, I'm not really buying Spike as a heel....Matt v.s Kane was shockingly anti-climactic. I figured on something big happening. And someone needs to teach Lita how to run without flailing her arms and legs....Nice to see the Cena/Orton interaction. They're the future of WWE....

 

Booker T. v.s Cena was surprisingly short. I gotta admit, I wasn't paying attention to the "best of 5 rules" so I thought it was best of 5 TONIGHT. I was surprised when they left the ring after the match....Planting the seed for Eugene to Smackdown! perhaps? I figured tonight was really the end for that character, but if he goes to Smackdown, it might have a little more staying power....

 

The triple threat was too short, and too much of "one guy resting on the outside". I know most triple-threat matches do that, but I noticed it alot more here....Angle v.s Guerrero was a strong match. Especially considering the condition of the participants....Trips v.s Eugene was okay, didn't expect a classic, so it was fine. And it had FLAIR~!....When the diva contestants ran out, I immediately spotted no Carmella. Strange....

 

JBL v.s 'Taker seemed too long. And the gimmicked limo was too obvious....Real good main event. And nice post-match handshake....I hated the crowd, too. I knew Canadian crowds were a bit..."different", but this one took the cake. Really unnecessary at times. It's almost like they were TRYING to do the opposite of what the were "supposed" to do...I was not real impressed with the PPV. Thumbs in the middle, leaning down (TM Scott Keith).

i liked the show, it acomplished all it was suposed to. the crowd was the worst ever but just the fact Orton won in a good match makes it all good.

And the gimmicked limo was too obvious

 

Part of the problem was that some guy (and they didn't show this on the air) jumped over the baracade and started running around on top of the limo. From what I've read, he fell through and that's why there was already a rip on top. Notice the cameras tried not to show the top of the limo.
