I’m excited for a few of the matches in store for us, but I’m not quite sure what the rhyme or reason was for some of these bookings. Randy Orton vs. Batista I can live with because both men know how to deliver a match. But honestly, haven’t we seen a lot of these matches before? And many times at that?
Big Show-Cena has been done to death, and their bouts have set the record for some of the pastiest-white matches we’ve ever seen… don’t worry JBL, your matches with Cena are up there too. But to be honest, seeing Cena FU’ing, not Attitude-Adjusting, the Big Show time and time again flat-out takes away from just how impressive the feat is. I roll my eyes whenever I see it happen, and that is not something a fan should be doing when seeing such an act of strength!
Christian-Jack Swagger is actually a repeat match I can’t wait to see. Christian’s professionalism has been rubbing off on Jack Swagger, and I’ve noticed a steady improvement in Swagger’s game just in the last two months alone. The program they’ve had has developed nicely, and ECW has become watchable solely because of these two.
As for Edge-Jeff Hardy, I don’t know what to say. I’m confused, to be honest. We all know Hardy’s contract is expiring later this summer and that he’s declined extensions on multiple occasions, but he’s still getting opportunities at the title? Maybe the WWE officials just think he’s playing hardball and are just trying to appease him in the meantime, but it’s rather risky. Edge could have had a number of programs with other faces such as Rey Mysterio or even CM Punk – both who are far less of a gamble. Either way, the matchup will probably be entertaining based off their history, but will we see anything different?
We’ll all find out how the PPV turns out tomorrow. I think we’ll see more of the same as we’ve seen before, but who knows… I could be surprised. Until then, be sure to check out XHeadline’s PPV Headquarters for all the information you need for Judgment Day.
