Just finished watching the Punk-Hardy match...
SPOILERS BELOW!!!
I loved the story they were telling, basically Punk was clearly the better wrestler and Jeff was the spot monkey who looked like he couldn't beat Punk. They both reversed each other's signature moves (Punk puts his knees up on a Swanton, Hardy elbowed out of a GTS, Punk got out of a twist of fate and crotched Hardy on the top rope before he could do a Whisper in the Wind) which made the match pretty entertaining. That being said, it was somewhat underwhelming, mainly because of the finish. Punk grabbing the belt & leaving (or trying) was pretty weak, and I would have liked to see Punk kick out of a Swanton, hit a GTS, have Hardy kick out, then finish the match.
STILL SPOILERS...
I also hate that they let Hardy win (can't stand his promos, and am a Straightedge kid myself...) considering Punk was the hottest thing going in WWE with the heel turn, but whatever. Here's hoping he gets the belt back at Summerslam.
