So answer me this....
How can you have a no contest in a title match on a PPV? And how do you let the main event match in a PPV that people have paid good money for, end in just a blatant cop out disqualification?

Say what you want about the results, the WWE had us all fooled about the Daniel Bryan thing. I marked out HARD when I saw that. It was the first time in a while WWE legitimately surprised me, so more power to them. That being said, Cena winning the SS match on his own was shite. Miz' interfering and clocking Bryan with the suitcase was shite (Although this might be to finally remove the US Championship from Miz and get him towards Main Event status) The no-contest IC Match was shite (Seriously, why didn't they do that with the WWE Title match? Would've pushed them more) However, The WWE Title match (Which IMO was decent enough, and I actually liked the finish: I just wish they didn't have Orton beat the shit out of Sheamus after the match, and actually had Sheamus pummel Orton to give him more heel cred), Kane defending his title SUCCESSFULLY and winning CLEAN. (Seriously, Kane won CLEAN. That's fucking AMAZING!) and then Tombstoning Undertaker (See? They are doing something with Kane!) Bret Hart actually using wrestling moves (Sure, no high-impact moves, but the man actually MOVED, which puts his Wrestlemania match in shame.) and Bryans return made it more than worth it for me.. Alright, so I watched it on a free wrestling stream, but whatever WWEs done more than TNA has done for me: Its got me sat up and taking notice. I bet it's also got Justin Roberts wearing clip-on ties, too.

I actually thought having The Miz hitting Daniel(son) with the briefcase was the perfect way for him to exit the match and save face. I hope they feud, because if they do, I expect incredible matches between the two. Miz really brought it with that promo channeling The Rock.
The ending? Not so awesome.
They pretty much stalled the Nexus being unbeatable with Cena winning like he was fucking Superman.
Barrett is the only one ready for a singles push, so doing this now doesn't make much sense to me.
Gabriel has potential but he'll be better off as face.
Slater looked decent as well.
Everyone else on Nexus? Not so much.
The ending of the Orton / Sheamus match was atrocious. Having him do what he did to Sheamus at the end killed the heat he had... Although, I like that Orton is a face but his mannerisms are very much that of a heel... like Austin was back in the day but more devious because you could tell Austin was just having a good time with it.
I'm curious to see how they handle Raw tonight... hmmm....
