Crowd seemed pretty meh, except for Cena, Punk's entrance & the Jericho thing.

But damn, that Jericho segment was awesome. I was hoping if he was going to be a face that we'd get the CM Punk "You stupid old man, I'm a snake" heel turn to feud with him, but this Trolling gimmick could be even better.

Either way, I really hope we get a Jericho/Punk feud going into Mania.

Rest of the show was pretty lame. Love how they book R-Truth's water bottle better than 90% of the roster.

But how is a plastic water bottle suppose to hurt?? Cena is really starting to annoy me though. They need to do something with him quick.

Just have someone come out and throw him into Kane's flaming hole in the middle of the ring.

[chiefscafan]

We could only hope that happens. One more time he tells a jole and Jerry lawler has to pretend it's hilarious will be it for me with him. They are really turning what fans he has left against him. Reminds me how hogan was right before the NWO

The Jericho segment was awesome, although I was beginning to wonder if they'd ever figure out what he was doing and start booing.

It should have ended the show though. They won't do the overrun with anybody but Cena now, though, and this Kane stuff is just god awful.

I like what they're doing with Punk and Johnny Ace, but this is two weeks in a row with absolutely horrendous finishes. First he breaks the Anaconda Vice when (logically) he could just hold it forever, and then he can't get back in the ring after a top-rop dive. Which makes him look stupid on one hand, and weak with the other. But it's nit-picking. Ziggler should be in the title picture, and Punk will eventually come out on top, and then somehow start mixing things up with Jericho. I just wish they would smarten-up with the booking.

But Cena, jesus god, enough already. The only hope for any of this is that they're turning him heel at Wrestlemania, where apparently, the plan according to Meltzer is to give him the win over the Rock. And there's no way in the world to do that in Miami without getting booed.

The booking of Johnny Ace is just maddening. He should be a pure heel GM based on his prior antics with Punk. However, he spends half the show doing face things like booking Miz in a match with Sheamus and talking shit to Miz about Truth. It's almost TNA-like.

I agree with everything for the most part, except the annoying shit with Cena seems to be the point. Trying to make it obvious that he's not universally loved anymore & slowly turning him (or at least I ****ing hope so)... And I liked Kane's promo last week (although it shouldn't have ended the show and it went on too long) but the ZOMG HEZ UNDER TEH RING! thing is way too over the top.

I heard a few fans finally get smart & boo Jericho. But it's Memphis. When it comes to wrestling fans, it's pretty much a bigger Wichita. And I can tell you that Wichita wrestling fans SUCK. I'm willing to bet it'll all get cleared up by the Rumble.

And the booking wasn't great, but I can live with it. They have kinda made Punk look stupid the last few weeks but unless you want Ziggler to go over clean (they don't), it's about the only way to logically have Punk go down. I'm glad Ziggler's getting a main event shot and it wouldn't surprise me to see him in the Rumble match and be one of the final 4 or so, too.

Haha this is true. I love the way they've had him interact with Punk, but the rest of it is pretty crazy. I think the idea is that in his mind, he's giving the fans what they want while trying to screw over Punk...

[NJChiefsFan]

I really hope they don't turn Truth full face. He was my favorite character of 2011.

Kinda wanted Jericho to turn full heel at the end there but so-be-it.

Cena certainly is an over-actor with this Kane crap, but man what a thing it would be if Cena turned. They were subtle at first, kinda wish they kept it that way. Long way to go, no need to rush it.

That was awesome. Pretty stupid. But awesome.

Felt like kind of a meh show. Good match between Thwagger & Punk, but this whole Kane thing is getting a bit overdone. I like his promos, but jeez, it seemed like every other segment involved Ryder, Cena, Eve, and/or Kane...

I kinda like the idea of a Ryder/Eve pairing, but if all they're gunna do is have Kane stalk them the whole time, it'll get really repetitive really quick. Love Jeritroll, though.

And I feel like we've seen this Truth vs. Miz feud before...
