Overview:
A day removed from Hell in a Cell, and Raw starts with promote 12-Man Tag Team match for tonight's Main Event. Following that we get Randy Orton facing off with Drew McIntyre, and Orton just destroys McIntyre in the opening minutes. McIntyre, fights back with a Big Boot and rope hung chokes. McIntyre follows up with brawling tactics, until Orton begins to hit his signatures. Orton follows through with the RKO, picking up the pinfall and win. After the match as McIntyre, tries getting up Orton hits him with another RKO as Mark Henry makes his way to the ringside. Orton flies right out to him and the two brawl about as security separates them, Henry breaks free and jumps Orton and Orton replies in the same way. Orton even goes to pushing Henry into the crowd, before allowing security to do their job.
After the first break, we return to Henry standing in the ring pacing about awaiting his opponent for the night. During that time as Henry waits for John Morrison we get told that Big Show is returning to Smackdown this Friday. Morrison starts off with working on Henry's knee, leading to him grounding Henry fast. Morrison lands the Knee Smash and Starship Pain but can't manage the pinfall. Henry kicks out, and goes right for the World's Strongest Slam and wins. Following the match Henry hits the World's Strongest Slam on Morrison again and cuts a promo about how he's done with Orton along with calling out Big Show. Backstage, John Lauriniatis holds another meeting with the disgruntled WWE Superstars like Vickie Guerrero and her Stable, Christian, and Alberto Del Rio to name a few.
Now in ring all the guys that were backstage with Lauriniatis, are in the ring. The whole group is Alberto Del Rio, Christian, Cody Rhodes, David Otunga, Vickie Guerrero, Dolph Ziggler, and Jack Swagger. Del Rio, starts off since he's the new WWE Champion so he has to rant about defeating Cena and Punk along with Awesome Truth attacking him. Christian follows up about WWE COO Triple H, then he passes it off to Rhodes, and it goes on like this for awhile. When it finally gets to Vickie the crowd just boo's her none stop as usual before passing it someone no one cares about Otunga! Triple H finally shows up and chews them out for being the whining losers they are and for them to do their job.
Next match on the card is a Divas' Tag Team match with Kelly Kelly and Eve facing Beth Phoenix and Natalya, AGAIN! Kelly and Phoenix start the match and brawl outside leading to Eve and Natalya to get involved. This all leads to the match becoming a No-Contest, while Kelly destroys Phoenix! Backstage Triple H, talks with Lauriniatis about Miz and R-Truth from last night, along with when Triple H hitting Lauriniatis. Triple H, even then chews out Lauriniatis yet again it's like Lauriniatis loves doing the same crap each week!
After a commerical break, we come to a promo for Fast Five then a match with Jinder Mahal and Santino Marella. Mahal just beats Santino with knees, until falling into the Cobra. Santino picks up the win and swiftly exits the ring leaving Mahal feuding in the ring. Following a short break, we see a brief promo for Brodus Clay whose soon to have his return to tv. Then we get the scenes of Miz and R-Truth attacking everyone in the WWE Championship, Hell in a Cell match. Following the scenes from last night, we get the Youtube video of Miz and R-Truth apologizing along with them sueing Triple H. Before heading into the commerical break, the 12-Man Tag Team match begins! CM Punk, John Cena, Sheamus, Mason Ryan, and Air Boom facing Dolph Ziggler, Jack Swagger, David Otunga, Cody Rhodes, Alberto Del Rio and Christian with Vickie Guerrero. This hopefully won't suck for a main event.
The 12-Man Tag begins with Sheamus and Mason over powering the opposite team. The match flips back and forth, for awhile. During a the match Del Rio dropkicks Kofi in the back of the head which looked badass. The match continues, and Air Boom get involved for match leading to Bourne almost winning the match for their team. Vickie puts Swagger's leg on the rope breaking the count but leads to her getting kicked out. The match continues with alot more of reversals and great moments to the match. The whole match ends when everyone gets involved hitting their finishers on each other, and thus allows Sheamus to pick up the pinfall on Ziggler.
Following the main event we get this huge promo thing about does everyone trust Triple H as COO. The ringside is filled by Raw, Smackdown and Referee rosters along with Jerry "the King" Lawler's return. Triple H makes his entrance and talks about him running the business the way he knows how to. Someone tries to cut him off and he tells them to shut up, that person was Wade Barrett. Triple H then responds on how Wade Barrett was once a problem to the WWE. Chioda then explains how the referees fear coming to their jobs; before Beth Phoenix cuts in about who'll look out for the Divas? The King even, agrees with how everything is coming out of control and how knows someone doesn't want him in charge. Then everyone votes for no confidence in him, leading to the whole roster leaving even the announcers and camera-men go except Jim Ross who was the very last. Lauriniatis comes out for a brief minute then leaves, while the crowd cheers for Triple H.
Review:
This Raw began great and ended pretty great. Almost all of the matches were great matches on the card, a first in a good while in which I've seen. The 12-Man Tag Team match was the best on the whole card, and is the only thing I plan to talk about here along with the "No Confidence" vote. The main event match, was great my only issue was no Zac Ryder! They replaced Ryder for Ryan, which it's like hey look Batista V2 he's awesome and cool so we'll push him and not Ryder. Anyways the match was fast paced and Cole even quoted the match was like Fast and Furious and it was. The way they mostly marketed team Ziggler rather team Cena, even thou Cena's team had several good faces. The only members from Cena's team, that wrestled the most were Air Boom, Punk and Sheamus ironically Ryan nor Cena was given enough time in the match which isn't a issue. So when looking at the match it was performed greatly as it tried to market its best wrestlers. As for the 'No Confidence' thing it was stupid and all foreseeable that Triple H would be walked out on. Just it was bad that none of the better 'Face' Superstars even appeared at the meeting to support him. It just look stupid and boring, cause it was foreseeable! WWE could of made it such a better promo if they took the damn time to plan this. That's why this end promo of the night killed my actual rating as it became 4 out of 5-Stars!

WWE Hell in a Cell
Overview:
Hell in a Cell, opens with a cool promo for the event. Following that we, pan to the commentary team introducing themselves while Christian makes his entrance. During this time the camera team shows Miz and R-Truth coming to the front row with tickets. Before Sheamus can make his entrance Laurinaitis and his security team come to kick out Miz and R-Truth out. Then the opening match was allowed to begin, Sheamus and Christian tie it up. Sheamus gets an early lead, as Christian tries to bolt from the ring. Sometime later Christian knocks Sheamus out of the ring from the tope rope. Christian drags Sheamus back in, and begins to wear him down. Sheamus powers out, leading to him countering an early KillSwitch. Following that the two soon to begin brawling about from ring-post to ring-post, leading to Sheamus landing the Shoulder Block! As Sheamus, goes for a Brogue Kick on Christian just he bails from the ring leading to an outside Spear then another in the ring. Sheamus breaks the pinfall, and leads to him landing the Brogue Kick followed by the pinfall.
After the match, Mark Henry backstage has an interview with Matt Striker about the upcoming match tonight. We then cut to Sin Cara(Mystico) vs Sin Cara(Hunaco) a match that is quite boring. The opening minutes of the match are boring cause of the damn Sin Cara lighting, and they're very tactical in their wrestling. Eventually these two luchadores starting like luchadores can! Sin Cara(Hunaco) being bigger and stronger, lands a powerbomb and attempts another one leading to Sin Cara(Mystico) getting a roll-up pinfall. Backstage, CM Punk is confronted by David Otunga where Punk insults him several times.
Next up we got a Tag Team Championship match, with Air Boom facing Dolph Ziggler and Jack Swagger accompanied by Vickie Guerrero. The match begins with Air Boom, beating Swagger and Ziggler about until they use dirty tactics. The match has great points to it and ironically making a match that should be the sub main-event on a Raw. The match almost ends with Ziggler assisting Swagger for a Super-Powerbomb, just Kofi Kingston gets Ziggler out of the ring leading to Bourne hitting the Frankensteiner. Following the Frankensteiner, he goes right into a pinfall roll up for the win.
The fourth match on the card is the World Heavyweight Championship, Hell in a Cell match. Mark Henry and Randy Orton start off the match brawling with each other. Orton, begins trying to ground Mark Henry and slam him off the cell. Henry powers out and being slamming Orton all about the Cell and ring. During the match Henry tries throwing the stairs at Orton, which gets the crowd popping. Henry continues to weardown Orton, for awhile leading to him locking a few Bearhugs in. Henry then drags Orton outside to try and hit a World's Strongest Slam on the steps, but Orton climbs up the cage leading to him fighting out. Back inside the ring Orton, beings to hitting off his signatures followed by him setting up the RKO. Orton, hits the RKO with Henry managing to kickout of a 2-Count pinfall. With the RKO unsuccessful, Orton begins to prep the Punt Kick but falls into the World's Strongest Slam, allowing Henry to pick up the win. After the match ends, Henry instead of walking away tries to cause more damage on Orton with another World's Strongest Slam, and the chair on the knee. Orton slides out of the way and hits him with the chair several times, before Henry kicks him in the gut and runs away.
Backstage Alberto Del Rio, has an interview with Josh Matthews about his upcoming Hell in a Cell match tonight. Following the interview, we get Cody Rhodes coming out to cut a promo. Rhodes during the promo throws the Intercontinental Championship in a paper and un-vales the classic Intercontinental Championship as the new and current Championship. Ironically, this makes Rhodes look badass at this moment to bring back the retro belt! Laurinaitis, then comes out to interupting him to tell him he's defending it against John Morrison. Rhodes, isn't ready for the match and Morrison is just dominating him. Rhodes bails from the ring and begins trying to get counted out. Rhodes, begins to ground Morrison for awhile even locking in the Figure 4-Leglock. Morrison fights out and begins taking it to Rhodes eventually leading to Rhodes blocking and avoiding Morrison signature and finisher. Following those reverses, Rhodes rolls up Morrison for the pinfall.
Laurinaitis comes rushing into Triple H's office, telling him stuff is going down. They go rushing from the office into Air Boom's locker room where Miz and R-Truth are attacking them. Security removes them as Triple H chews out Laurinaitis. After that we cut to Beth Phoenix with Natalya making her entrance to face Kelly Kelly accompanied by Eve for the Divas' Championship. The match starts with Kelly Kelly hitting Phoenix with Lou Thez Presses' and Sentons. Phoenix powers out and ties Kelly up in the turnbuckle followed by a Dragon Sleeper. Phoenix then begins to grind her elbow and knee on Kelly's back. Eventually Kelly and Phoenix battle about in several roll-ups, as Phoenix tries for the Glam Slam. As Kelly begins to get fight out, where Natalya beats down Eve. Back inside the ring, Phoenix locks Kelly in Natalya's new submission, while the refree breaks the hold due to Kelly reaching the ropes as Natalya hits Kelly with the microphone. The ref doesn't notice this and Phoenix follows straight into the Glam Slam and pinfall.
As we come to the WWE Championship, Hell in a Cell we get the promo that lead to this Triple Threat Match. The promo begins with CM Punk winning at Money in the Bank, then Del Rio cashing in his Money in the Bank contract at Summerslam, followed by Cena getting the title back at Night of Champions and finally Triple H making this match. The match opens with Cena and Punk trying to corner Del Rio. Cena and Punk then are left in the ring to start battling each other trying to lock in their finishers. Following that CM Punk hits a suicide dive, on both Cena and Del Rio. Punk and Del Rio, then begin to brawl in the ring as Punk gets out the first weapon of the night. Cena then starts battling with Punk outside before Del Rio joins the fray. Now Cena and Del Rio battle in ring as Cena hits the 5 Knuckle Shuffle, and soon is kicked by Punk. After that Punk hits Cena with a neckbreaker and Del Rio with a DDT, while busting out a table.
Following Cena reversing Punk, Del Rio attacks Cena bringing him back into the ring. As Cena fights back, Punk gets involved in the match again. Del Rio manages to get headlock on Punk as Cena the both for a Leg Drop. Cena goes for an AA on Del Rio, but fails as Punk comes to the save knocking Del Rio out of the ring. Cena and Punk go punch for punch, until Del Rio flies in with a chair. Then Del Rio sentons onto Cena and Punk, which was the stupidest part of the night so far. Eventually, Cena hits an AA on Punk, Del Rio breaks the pinfall while Del Rio tries to lock the Armbar on Cena and Punk saves the match; that ends with Punk hitting a GTS on Cena and Del Rio saving the match. Del Rio takes over the match and begins dismantling Cena. As Del Rio turns to Punk, Punk fights back. Cena explodes back into the match, only leading to Punk reversing him.
As Punk goes to Elbow Drop Cena like he did to Del Rio earlier, Del Rio pushes Punk off the top rope and into the table. Del Rio then falls into the STF, and Ricardo breaks into the match leading to Del Rio getting and locking Cena out of the cell. Del Rio now works on Punk, as Punk is now the underdog. Outside of the cell, Cena begins to come too, while inside Punk fights back. While Del Rio and Punk battle for the Championship, Cena tries breaking into the cell as Del Rio hits Punk with the pipe he used on Cena. This all leads to Del Rio being able to win the Championship, and as the cell rises Cena jumps Del Rio. While this happens Miz and R-Truth slide in attacking everyone in the cells area as the cage closes down. The whole roster rushes to the cell and try to get in, while Awesome Truth destroy the refs, Cena, Punk, Del Rio and Ricardo. Eventually the cell is broke open and every rushes Miz and R-Truth, while they get arrested and Triple H jumps them before being carried away by superstars and security.
Review:
Well I can start off by saying that everything but the end of the Pay-Per View was great! That end with Miz and R-Truth, coming out was boring as hell cause the roster didn't get a chance to beat the hell out of them. Like it would've been better if the roster bursted in to destroy those two. The end was just too much like a crappy episode of Raw. Anyways as for the matches, I think the top 3 matches on the card were the Triple Threat Hell in a Cell, the Tag Team match and Sheamus vs Christian. Sin Cara vs Sin Cara would've made it if the lighting was the Gold and Blue for Sin Cara. The whole Triple Threat was amazing and could've ended better with Punk winning, but alright Del Rio it's still an ok ending just due to the reversal rate and counters. The other Hell in a Cell match wasn't the greatest and was quite boring, not enough action or wrestling along with the sad endding of Orton losing!
As for the other matches I did enjoy the Sheamus/Christian match, Tag Team Match and Sin Cara vs Sin Cara. Those three had great points that establish their divisions. Sheamus and Christian brawled about leading to two amazing Spears and the Brogue Kick. Following that we jump to Sin Cara vs Sin Cara, these two luchadores just amazed the hell out of me. My issue was that they didn't go over edge with showing off their talent. Mystico and Hunaco could've brought down the house, just they didn't! The Air Boom/Perfect Americans match was amazing, if anyone doesn't know who the Perfect Americans are they're Ziggler and Swagger. That tag team match was good and great should get a rematch on Raw that's how enjoyable I found it.
The bottom two matches were Rhodes/Morrison for the Intercontinental Championship, and Kelly/Phoenix for the Divas' Championship. Since Rhodes/Morrison was unannounced and it was John Morrison instead of Ted DiBiase I got annoyed. I'm annoyed cause DiBiase is getting crushed, just atleast we know Morrison is out of his trouble due to Melina. So I guess that's good for MoFo's out their! As for the Divas match, it was a great Divas' match but I didn't think Natalya really need to use the Mic on Kelly Kelly to help Phoenix. That was just a low blow for Divas' and yet really violent since Divas' barely use weapons! Anyways as a result if I'm still using the 10-Star rating this would be a nice 8.5-Star rating for Hell in a Cell!

Overview:
Smackdown, opens up with Booker T making his entrance and welcoming everyone to it. Then he introduces the World Heavyweight Champion, Mark Henry and tries to get on his good side. He ends up getting on his bad side thou, cause Henry well is against the world.

Swagger is joined by Vickie Guerrero and Dolph Ziggler. The match is pretty good, Evan is seemingly to get a better push. During the match Ziggler tries to interfere, but fails and is attacked by Kofi Kingston, while the ref looks at the fight outside Vickie then interferes helping Swagger. From the interferance, Swagger locks the Ankle Lock on Evan making him tap out. Then breaking news, at Hell in a Cell it will be Sin Cara vs Sin Cara!
The next match is Sin Cara(Mystico) facing off with Heath Slater. In the opening minutes he botches a moves and quickly follows up with his finisher. Then the fake Sin Cara(Hunaco) reveils himself, as the Black and Silver Sin Cara. After that we get a promo for tonights Intercontinental Championship match, Cody Rhodes defending against Sheamus due to Raw's Battle Royal ending with the interferance from Christian. Following the promo we get a commerical break and return to a promo for WWE COO Triple H's recent issues, then all the superstars are in a meeting with John Lauriniatis talking about their greivances. Next we get a Divas' Match with Kelly Kelly facing Natalya, as Beth Phoenix join commentary. The match beings with Kelly elbowing Natalya, and Natalya not getting any counters. Soon Natalya begins to wear Kelly Kelly down, but Kelly lands a roll-up pinfall. After the match Beth Phoenix hits Kelly with a Glam Slam and Natalya hits her with the new submission.
Following the Divas' match we come to the Intercontinental Championship match. Just before the match gets started, Cody Rhodes rants about the injustice that has been given to him and talks smack about Sheamus. During Sheamus' entrance he talks about how he'll beat Rhodes for the title tonight. The match finally gets going and Sheamus overpowers Rhodes. Sheamus just beats him down in the opening minutes, until Rhodes exits and tries to re-enter the ring. Sheamus gets him back in and continues to assault him. Somehow Rhodes, manages to fight out of the assualt and lands a Beautiful Disaster kick on him heading into the commerical break. Coming back from the break Rhodes is maintaining to wear down Sheamus by working on his "injured" shoulder. Sheamus fights back leading to powerslams, diving shoulder block, and finally the Brogue Kick, but misses it. Sheamus recovers and tries for the Celtic Cross, but Christian hits the ring and hits Sheamus with the KillSwitch. The match ends via a DQ, while Rhodes retains the title.
Long Island Iced-Z, Zac Ryder shows up and is a match against JTG of all people. The match is pretty boring starting off since they have JTG out wrestling Ryder. Eventually Ryder, fights out and gets the crowd backing him up. Ryder hits the Broski Boot, and follows up with the Rough Ryder for the win! Woo Woo Woo, You Know It! Backstage Triple H runs into Lauriniatis, and tells him off about his backstabbing ways. Just Lauriniatis tries to say he stands by Triple H, but we know he's not so serious. After another break, we get the stupid Hell in a Cell promo that has been spammed since after Night of Champions and we're read off the matches.
Following the Hell in a Cell promo, Matt Striker has an interview with Randy Orton about his upcoming match with Mark Henry this sunday. Orton is furious with Henry's earlier statements and swears he'll hit a RKO on him. Along with that Orton swears he'll end Henry's reign as World Heavyweight Champion leading into tonight's main event.

That all leads to Henry coming down to hit Orton with the World's Strongest Slam, which he does but when trying to destroy him with a chair Orton kip up hitting a RKO to end the night!
Review:
Well Smackdown was alright, and had alright matches. Just the matchs were all predictable. The opening match was good, just I wanted it to go longer since it was a battle of Goliaths'. Following that we get Evan Bourne facing Swagger, I'd perfer it end via Swagger's Gut-Wrench Powerbomb instead of the Ankle Lock. The Ankle Lock just doesn't really fit Swagger since he can't match up to Angle. Following that we get a crappy Sin Cara match and crappy Divas' match. Recently these matches just bore the hell out of me! The Intercontinental Championship, was one of the best on the card. It was really enjoyable, the whole fact that Sheamus destroyed him and how Christian jumped him seemlessly, following that we got a Zac Ryder match! Anytime Zac Ryder is on any show it just adds to my Rating! Well anyways the main event was good, along with the final minutes with the brawls and Orton hitting the RKO in his hometown. With that all being said, SmackDown was great match were played out mostly correct. The key issues with it were mostly the first few opening matches and the end results, actually most of the results hurt the rating for tonight. So I got to go with gut wrenching guess of like 3.5-Star Rating!
Smackdown, opens up with Booker T making his entrance and welcoming everyone to it. Then he introduces the World Heavyweight Champion, Mark Henry and tries to get on his good side. He ends up getting on his bad side thou, cause Henry well is against the world. Henry then goes on about defeating Randy Orton and will beat him at Hell in a Cell, along with members of the 'Hall of Pain.' Then Henry argues with Booker T, over how Orton will beat or lose at Hell in a Cell. Following that Mark Henry gets ready to face the Great Khali. The match opens with Khali beating down Henry with clubbing fists, and kicks. Eventually Henry, grounds Khali and hits several big splashes. Khali tries to fight back and fail, while falling into the World's Strongest Slam. After Henry beats Khali he then goes to crush Khali's knee with the steel chair and body splash.
Backstage, Khali is on a stretcher as Jinder Mahal confronts them. Following that Air Boom makes their entrance, with a match for Evan Bourne to face Jack Swagger. Swagger is joined by Vickie Guerrero and Dolph Ziggler. The match is pretty good, Evan is seemingly to get a better push. During the match Ziggler tries to interfere, but fails and is attacked by Kofi Kingston, while the ref looks at the fight outside Vickie then interferes helping Swagger. From the interferance, Swagger locks the Ankle Lock on Evan making him tap out. Then breaking news, at Hell in a Cell it will be Sin Cara vs Sin Cara!
The next match is Sin Cara(Mystico) facing off with Heath Slater. In the opening minutes he botches a moves and quickly follows up with his finisher. Then the fake Sin Cara(Hunaco) reveils himself, as the Black and Silver Sin Cara. After that we get a promo for tonights Intercontinental Championship match, Cody Rhodes defending against Sheamus due to Raw's Battle Royal ending with the interferance from Christian. Following the promo we get a commerical break and return to a promo for WWE COO Triple H's recent issues, then all the superstars are in a meeting with John Lauriniatis talking about their greivances. Next we get a Divas' Match with Kelly Kelly facing Natalya, as Beth Phoenix join commentary. The match beings with Kelly elbowing Natalya, and Natalya not getting any counters. Soon Natalya begins to wear Kelly Kelly down, but Kelly lands a roll-up pinfall. After the match Beth Phoenix hits Kelly with a Glam Slam and Natalya hits her with the new submission.
Following the Divas' match we come to the Intercontinental Championship match. Just before the match gets started, Cody Rhodes rants about the injustice that has been given to him and talks smack about Sheamus. During Sheamus' entrance he talks about how he'll beat Rhodes for the title tonight. The match finally gets going and Sheamus overpowers Rhodes. Sheamus just beats him down in the opening minutes, until Rhodes exits and tries to re-enter the ring. Sheamus gets him back in and continues to assault him. Somehow Rhodes, manages to fight out of the assualt and lands a Beautiful Disaster kick on him heading into the commerical break. Coming back from the break Rhodes is maintaining to wear down Sheamus by working on his "injured" shoulder. Sheamus fights back leading to powerslams, diving shoulder block, and finally the Brogue Kick, but misses it. Sheamus recovers and tries for the Celtic Cross, but Christian hits the ring and hits Sheamus with the KillSwitch. The match ends via a DQ, while Rhodes retains the title.
Long Island Iced-Z, Zac Ryder shows up and is a match against JTG of all people. The match is pretty boring starting off since they have JTG out wrestling Ryder. Eventually Ryder, fights out and gets the crowd backing him up. Ryder hits the Broski Boot, and follows up with the Rough Ryder for the win! Woo Woo Woo, You Know It! Backstage Triple H runs into Lauriniatis, and tells him off about his backstabbing ways. Just Lauriniatis tries to say he stands by Triple H, but we know he's not so serious. After another break, we get the stupid Hell in a Cell promo that has been spammed since after Night of Champions and we're read off the matches.
Following the Hell in a Cell promo, Matt Striker has an interview with Randy Orton about his upcoming match with Mark Henry this sunday. Orton is furious with Henry's earlier statements and swears he'll hit a RKO on him. Along with that Orton swears he'll end Henry's reign as World Heavyweight Champion leading into tonight's main event. The main event thou is Christian vs Orton, where it starts off with them countering one another. Eventually the turns to Christian's favor as he begins to dominate him. After a short break, we return to Christian still beating Orton. Soon Orton fights back, with Christian managing some reversals. Christian hits a Spear and only gets a 2-Count pinfall; while Christian goes for the KillSwitch, Orton reverses and lands the Rope-Hung DDT. Two then fight outside the ring, leading into a double count-out draw. While Orton tries to RKO Christian on the announce table, Rhodes comes to the save, then Sheamus comes to Orton's save. That all leads to Henry coming down to hit Orton with the World's Strongest Slam, which he does but when trying to destroy him with a chair Orton kip up hitting a RKO to end the night!
Review:
Well Smackdown was alright, and had alright matches. Just the matchs were all predictable. The opening match was good, just I wanted it to go longer since it was a battle of Goliaths'. Following that we get Evan Bourne facing Swagger, I'd perfer it end via Swagger's Gut-Wrench Powerbomb instead of the Ankle Lock. The Ankle Lock just doesn't really fit Swagger since he can't match up to Angle. Following that we get a crappy Sin Cara match and crappy Divas' match. Recently these matches just bore the hell out of me! The Intercontinental Championship, was one of the best on the card. It was really enjoyable, the whole fact that Sheamus destroyed him and how Christian jumped him seemlessly, following that we got a Zac Ryder match! Anytime Zac Ryder is on any show it just adds to my Rating! Well anyways the main event was good, along with the final minutes with the brawls and Orton hitting the RKO in his hometown. With that all being said, SmackDown was great match were played out mostly correct. The key issues with it were mostly the first few opening matches and the end results, actually most of the results hurt the rating for tonight. So I got to go with gut wrenching guess of like 3.5-Star Rating!
