I don't know what kind of game he had against Mickie James on RAW, but Santino didn't have any offense in the battle royal. He literally stood in a fighting stance and bobbed in and out of people's way while getting ignored. He didn't eliminate anyone. The last two girls eliminated eachother. That was the hilarity of it all. Also the announcers purposely chose to ignore that he was in the match, so they didn't react to him until he won the damn thing. If you didn't know Santino was supposed to be in there, you might not have realized it until the last few participants yourself. On Raw, Santino started out the match with one hand tied behind his back. It wasn't long before Mickie tied the other hand behind his back. It was great stuff. As far as surprise entrants, I don't know, because I don't know which divas were announced or not. All I can say is I'd give up my left testicle for a threeway with the Bella twins. Oh, on second thought, Victoria might have been a surprise entrant because King was surprised to see her in there and called that out. After the Hall of Fame ceremony, Stone Cold left and came back out on a freaking jacked up four wheeler and tore ass around the ring before crashing beer cans all over ringside. It reminded me of better times. He's still the biggest face in the company. The crowd went apeshit like you wouldn't believe. I really hoped against hope that he would be somehow involved in the main event. Maybe pull a WM IX run-in like Hogan did and win the title after an Orton win. I seriously can't believe how unworthy that main event was to headline Wrestlemania. I think Hunter is shooting his load into Vince himself to get that bullshit headlining. His style is so damn vanilla and he makes Orton look bad too. I would have preferred the triple threat be the main event just because it was well structured, humorous and a generally well done triple threat match. I notice triple threats are usually better with the addition of a big man like the Big Show against two smaller opponents. Edge can work a match like a true professional and seriously I don't get the Cena hate. Maybe it doesn't have to do with his in ring work because that man can work a match rather well. I feel like Cena is working really hard to pick up where the rock left off. I like his energy and his ability to work a crowd, but he panders too much and settles for too many cheap pops. Also, he does that rock thing where he has a set move list but there are certain moves he'll always botch. The rock couldn't pull off a samoan drop or the sharpshooter. Cena can't pull off a good fishermen suplex. I don't know, he has talent and the look, just not the flair. |
