MY EYES!!!

 

I wonder when WWE is going to embrace Twitter.

 

The show has sucked. Raw is supposed to be rocked (I hate the shaking graphic, fwiw), but we've only seen Rock twice. What the fuck, wwe?

 

The show hasn't been too bad, but it hasn't been great, which I was expecting.

Let's see if Rock can make it a better show.

 

I didn't mind them doing "This Is Your Life" with Cena; I laughed when they brought out Bull Buchanan, and he deadpanned, "All great tag teams come to an end." And Cena's dad was funny. But it felt like it went on a big too long for what was essentially a spoof of something they've done twice before, IIRC.

Miz and Truth look like chumps again at the end. No way Cena and Rock win, right? Otherwise, you absolutely destroy those two for real.

 

I liked the "This is Your Life" stuff, although it did drag out a bit. And I'm thinking Miz and Truth win because Rock/Cena don't get along. Otherwise, what's the point?

If they really wanted to show them not getting along, Miz/Truth should have beaten Cena down, and Rock just walk away and watch.

 

Boring. All of it.

 

I liked last night's show FWIW. Rock stealing the finisher on Miz from Cena was good.

Miz/Truth are definitely winning for what I see. Either Cena or Rock might walk out on the other.

 

The show -- other than the 10 minutes Rock was on screen -- sucked balls.

 

The only way to end Survivor Series without burying Awesome Truth is for them to beat Cena and Rock, and the only way they'll let that happen is for Cena or Rock to screw the other. With the way things are, I'm betting the Rock gives Cena a Rockbottom, and Miz and Truth get the win as Rock walks away. That sets up Rock and Cena more, and it puts Awesome Truth in position to demand a tag title shot.

 

Awesome Truth winning because Rock turned on Cena (or vice versa) would just be a rehash of Wrestlemania. It'd hurt Miz and R-Truth more than help, winning because one of them happened to be in the ring when the drama unfolded -- again. Considering how hot they were when they got fired, they've REALLY sputtered since John Laryngitis rehired them matter of factly. What a shitstorm.

 

The only other options I see, though, are Cena turning on Rock, which won't happen because it's too close to a heel turn for Cena, or them just beating down Awesome Truth, which is even worse than letting Awesome Truth hold their own and then win based off Rock turning on Cena.

And while it doesn't give a huge bump to Awesome Truth, it could give them a claim to the tag titles since they beat two of the biggest names in WWE history, which is more than they're getting if they lose.
