Royal Rumble/RAW(view)

Taking on a PPV and RAW... Down to business.

- Christian v. Jackson was seriously like the first ECW match I have seen in 3 months. Christian deserves more than the ECW title in my opinion though.

- Impromptu match with the Miz and MVP. Dear lord these two just know how to work together, good match throughout. Miz wins, but MVP hits the Playmaker when Miz is taunting him.

- Mickie James won the Womens Title in 21 seconds. Good for her.

- Orton was WAY over with the crowd. Slower paced match.

- I do not think this match had the planned finish take place, Rhodes looks like he missed his cue to interfere and the ref had to kinda just improv it.

- Mysterio v. Taker was fun, Rey sold moves like a champ and made Undertaker look like a complete monster. Finish was a bit off as Undertaker pretty much no sold two of Rey's finishers before giving him a Last Ride for the win.

- CM Punk stole the show in the rumble match. His promos between wrestlers were absolute gold.

- Having Triple H get eliminated in the middle of the match was easily a highlight for me.

- Edge made his return looking quite a bit smaller than the last time he was on TV and this eventually led to him winning the match eliminating Cena to win the match.

- When HBK got eliminated he played his role very well acting like all of his hopes and dreams had been crushed.

- Very different feel from the Rumble last year where there were upwards of 15 guys in the ring at a time, this year they maxed out at 6.

Onto RAW!!!!!

- Edge makes his return to TV, you can tell he is happy to be back, he cuts a promo and is definitely riding the line between face and heel the entire time.

- Sheamus interrupts talking about how he beat Orton last night and beat Cena for the title.

- Edge with easily the quote of the night responded with "I made a career out of beating John Cena for the title." Promo ends with Sheamus attacking Edge, but Edge gets the upper hand.

- William Shatner is our guest host... he accomplishes nothing.

- Five matches to determine who faces Sheamus for the title at Elimination Chamber...
- Cena beat Rhodes
- Triple H beat Swagger
- Orton beat HBK
- DiBiase beat - Henry
- Kofi beat Big Show

- Bret Hart called out Vince and after a pretty good promo by Vince and Hart. Hart attacked Vince and Batista made the save. Setting up what seems to be Cena v. Batista 2 at Wrestlemania 26.

Til next week.

Enjoy,
Suss
