I had the opportunity to watch this behemoth this afternoon. I had to
sacrifice a walk to do so, however, I was quite anxious to squeeze it
in and wanted to watch it while it was still fresh.
This
event felt like a sequel to last years WM - Taker on about his streak,
AJ and Daniel Bryan holding their friction, same Main Event (Rock and
Cena). most sequels do not live up to their predecessor and this event
was no different.
In yesterdays post I mentioned
that I thought the card looked predictable and had low expectations.
Sadly, those expectations were met and the matches were very
predictable. The biggest surprise I had was when Living Colour appeared
and played "Cult of Personality" live during CM Punk's entrance. I was
on the money picking winners in the big ticket matches. I was wrong on a
couple of the smaller matches, but in truth these matches were
insignificant anyway and more akin to filler matches.
Regardless
of result, the WWE really needed to do something to add some spice to
the event - this event had no standout moment that will last for
generations. it was almost like a disposable event. There were no
unannounced special guest appearance, no surprise announcements and not
even an appearance by the boss himself.
I think my time
would have been better served walking. Oh well, I guess you have to
have rotten events once in a while to appreciate good ones.
