... Sheamus and Daniel Bryan got 18 seconds.

Yep.

 

They're going to have to bring back Tony Schiavone for commentary, so he can say at 9:59, "Sorry folks! We're out of time! We'll see you next week!"

 

In fairness, they're probably not getting paid as much as these assholes.

 

Now it's time to see how rusty the Rock is or is not. For all the hype this match has gotten, if I'm not on the edge of my seat, I'll be pissed.

 

I kind of liked the Bryan-Sheamus match. I get sick of people kicking out of "finishers" all night.

 

Stunning secret -- it's actually going to be a "Yo Mama" contest. First one to get Flo Rida to do the thing where he grabs his nose, doubles over laughing and says "Oh Snap!" wins.

 

And how pins only come after a beatdown by the good guy, an extended heat sequence by the heel, a face comeback and a few seconds of even-steven scruffling before the finisher. Shake up the formula once in a while.

 

After the two matches they made undercard matches and the up-and-coming talents that they put in an 18-second match for this, if it isn't a five-star match or damn near, I'll be pissed.

 

First thing tomorrow morning, the Boston Celtics ought to sue Cena for trademark infrginement over that T-shirt.

 

So much for Cena getting the majority of the face reaction.

 

Here's another referee-logic thought: If the ref is supposed to be unbiased, how can the ref hold onto Cena's dog-tags?

 

Understandable, but it should have been a match that wasn't as big. Even the IC match or the Kane/Orton match would have sufficed.
