Orton winning is a huge anti-climax

Smiths: Today at 9:53pm , Creationist Ape wrote: Smiths : ya gotta admit, I was FAR LESS HATERADE tonight. and Vince repaid you by shitting in your face with the PPV LOLWWE Best part is the opener was actually the "freshest" in terms of WWE. So it just kinda kept looking like my bank account after buying a home after that: a slow gradual decline with random "up bursts" that reset right back to the previous down spot before it. I love murder Cheap poor murder loving motherfucker.

Placeholder PPV is placeholder. IMO, it was just kinda "there." Kinda seemed like one of those nights where not everyone's clicking. It happens. Been a part of many shows that looked like a million bucks on paper and turned out meh. Also been a part of the opposite where for whatever reason it looked like dogshit on paper, maybe there were guys that couldn't make it or whatever but the shows were a lot of fun. With this show I didn't get much of a sense of flow, either. There just seemed to be something missing.
Like I said upthread, I had no problem with Cena/Henry going on before the main. Generally the main title goes out last unless there's a gimmick match that would require too much setup/teardown. And this show was centered around 2 gimmick matches so bookending them is fine.
- Hennig did a shit job of selling the F4 after the match. - Cena, well, duh. - Dolph/ADR was good until the AJ shit.
The biggest problem with multiple person matches is that they all end up the same, especially for TV: guys pair off, then boom boom boom, everyone else but two are out selling. Highspot, sell. Wash, rinse, repeat. Next group. The crowd gets lost if all hell's breaking loose on the outside and miss what happens in the ring and it can be a schmoz to cover on TV.
So, I guess they trust Randy to stay off the gimmick for another run on top. I thought they would put Bryan over, or at least I thought that he was the most logical out of the group. And in the end, I thought the deal with Punk and Paul E. overshadowed the Apex Pooper winning the match. So what does that mean for the belt? Lesnar/Punk at Summerslam? Also, PG means that the image of Punk selling at the end after the trainer wipes the color away instead of a bloody, wrecked Punk selling the ladder shots and the turn. I understand that WWE needs to sell (in the monetary sense) but if there's blood once in a while, hey, shit happens.
