    Also, Striker went *there* on Rey? And Kane got a pop?

    Kane always gets a pop. He's still got one of the coolest entrances. I'd say that's why he still gets a solid pop. Even in the MITB match at WM, I'd say he got the best crowd reaction during the intros.

    To someone watching:

    Did Orton legitimately get injured or was it a work?

    I'm simply reading live updates of what's going on.

    Doing the same (can't miss Lost.) The blogs I've been reading are thinking legitimate injury.

    If it's a work, it's a damn good one.

    I just read a post on another board that said Orton broke his arm slapping the mat before the RKO.

    Wouldn't surprise me. That's when he just kinda stopped...and you could tell from there he, Edge and the ref were changing things on the fly. I know the crowd gets amped when Orton slaps the mat and goes crazy, but it was a lot better (and a lot safer) when he would just...you know...hit guys with the RKO.

    Karma's a bitch ... maybe he'll stop whining about the way other wrestlers handle him and worry about how he handles his own fragile ass.

    That's one of my biggest pet peeves in pro wrestling.

    I can't stand it when guys intentionally telegraph their finishing move. I guess HBK was the first to do it when he started "tuning up the band."

    Couple sources are saying that Orton's injury is legit.

    That's an odd way to get injured. Hope it's nothing more than a broken arm/wrist.

    It's been done before HBK.

    Jake Roberts used to twirl his finger around for the DDT. Paul Orndorff used to bring his fists together and pump them for the piledriver. And that's just off the top of my head.

    Back to Lost for me.
