    At least they didn't waste too much time after the restart.

    Batista just sucks. I want him gone.

    That was a bullshit finish. With apologies to our resident Taker fan, he's a stale character and a boring champion. Plus, it should be OK for all the heels to win before the main event, then have DX win the tag belts. Everyone (besides the 8-year-olds in Cena gear) would still go home happy.

    Orton-Kingston before the tag match, right?

    So we got Kofi and Orton, and DX vs. JeriShow to fill one hour?

    That was the one Sheamus flipped out of the ring.
    There were two tables in play for most of the match. From the main camera angle, one was set up to the left of the the ring. This was the one they used for the spot where Cena was clinging to the ropes and Sheamus was punching him. It was also the one Cena brought into the ring for the finish.
    The other ended up outside the ring to the right. Sheamus had propped it up in the corner to put Cena through it, but Cena countered and went through his move set. Right before Cena hit the FU, Sheamus flipped it out of the ring without much regard to where it landed. They never tried to set it up again, and the legs were never extended on it in the first place. So I don't think it was supposed to be in play for the finish.

    Am I the resident Taker fan you're talking about?

    Perhaps. :D

    I *love* what Kofi just did, BTW. Who's got him in the Rumble? Or, dare I ask, is he the one to dethrone Sheamus before then?

    That makes sense. My reaction was that way because I was surprised by the finish. Thanks.


    I like how Kofi is from Ghana now, not Jamaica. Ha ha.

    WOW. Orton is awesome.

    His Jamaican accent sucked. Plus, it provided a few more seconds of hilarious DX fodder.

    Kofi just tried to springboard off the ropes onto the floor, but met an Orton dropkick. Is anyone better with a dropkick than Orton? He's a taller guy anyway, but he also has some ups.

    It may just be me, but I don't remember them ever saying he was from Jamaica. The only reference to Jamaica that I remember has always been his last name.

    Also, wikipedia has already updated Sheamus and John Cena's pages:
