WWE Unforgiven Wrap UP

Hello all!

There will be no video wrap up of this event because of various reasons, none of which matters, so let's get to mey thoughts on the event from Toronto!

I actually missed the first match, which is good becasue from what I hear, Jeff got robbed! And what was Matt doing there?

Umaga vs Kane was as good as it could have been but very slow in the pace. I did enjoy the promo by Estrada to open the match. Good stuff.

Spirit Squad vs Highlanders was a yawner. Too slow and nobody cared. It was nice to see the "tributes" to the Hart Foundation and a Shake Rattle and Roll! Squad retains.

Hell in the Cell Match was, as far as I see it, just OK. Nothing really new that we have not seen before and I just can't buy two of the top wrestlers in the company being threatened by the chairman and his son. Big time let down, event with the new HITC on crack. Speaking of crack....that was the SECOND time I have seen Show's ass, and the first was NOT on camera......DX Wins...I know, shocking!

Trish Stratus defeats Lita for the strap in her last match with a Sharpshooter. Very, very well done. Classy until Orton called her a BITCH in the NEXT SEGMENT! So long babe. Thanks!

I had high hopes for Orton/Carlito and while they delivered a good match, I still feel there should have been more. The RKO to end it was a very nice touch.

TLC 732 for the WWE Strap. So much potential and excellent delivery. I am not thrilled that Cena won, but to be honest what else does this guy gotta do to get respect? cena came to play in this match and the both of them actually delivered a phenomenal match with several new elements. My hats off to Edge and Cena for execution. It was also special to see Edge get emeotional knowing that when he handed over the belt to the ref, it would be his last time for a while.

Overall, good show. I expected a lot and feel that I actually got it this go round. Good job to the RAW crew for the card.

Thoughts?

yeah i agree with most of what you said.

I think the PPV was a Success Because of the Canadian Crowd:

Firstly because unlike the unthankful MSG crowd the Toronto crowd acually cared about Trish's Send off which was extremely well done.

Secondly the fact that they did the whole go heel, Boo face thing (like Rock Hogan WM18)to such a strong degree it made the Main event Dwarf all the Other Matches. (especially the HIAC which was Midcard?)

When the table fell and cena used his phycic power to predict he would FU edge into it and so put it up again . left a bad taste in my mouth.

And

The Fact that Cena Won destroyed the End and the hope of all 5 smackdown fans
