Since I don't consider the ECW championship as a major title for Kane, I am caustiously excited for him. I am still in disbelief though. I guess they are like 7 years too late but yeah Kane. Now Christian needs a new finisher and a title.
My problem with The Miz winning is that he's already a huge heel. He has so much heat, an improving in-ring ability, and the United States Champion. Winning MitB isn't really a push, just him taking another step in his already-started push.
Sheamus goes over the cage right before Cena does after the Nexus tried to get into the cage. Right now, Cena is going apesh*t on Tarver and Young while Gabriel is laid out in the ring.
VanDerSar01 wins with like 7. Bulletproofcow tied, but didn't do other predictions. Overall, sounds like a good PPV. I will most likely pick this one up.
Dark Match before it went on air Santino pinned William Regal with the Cobra.
Some notes from the match: All I can say is bad, it was more of a comedic thing than a wrestling match. Although Santino did do some pretty good comedy with his behavior it was a bad way to get fans riled up for some wrestling. Especially considering both wrestlers can work with serious behavior.
After the Pay Per View Ended, Nexus went back to the ring and Wade Barrett picked up the microphone he started talking about how pathetic this night was with the results. He then talked about how this business needs a new world champion soon. He suggested it be someone from the nexus, Wade smirked as he said you should see Monday Night Raw tomorrow. I believe it was something like this, as I don't have that strong of a memory remembering word for word.
Biggest Crowd Pops Randy Orton Rey Mysterio John Cena
Thanks to 411 reader Nic Flair for sending these results in...
* House was probably 80% full minus the area that gets curtained off. TV side was totally packed and only a few empty seats on the non-TV side. One of the bigger crowds I've seen at the Sprint Center.
* Santino defeated Regal with the Cobra in a pure comedy dark match opener. I won't hate on this because the crowd was insane for Santino and it really got everyone fired up.
* A few notable Daniel Bryan chants during both Divas matches. Not sure if those made it to TV.
* 2nd biggest pop of the night was Kane cashing in. People went nuts.
* Hate on Cena all you want, but the man is $$. Certain people were getting excited for certain wrestlers, but the roof damn near came off the place for Cena's entrance (pop of the night, and #2 was waaaay behind).
* Hot crowd tonight, hope we came off well on TV. Lots of dueling Cena and Sheamus chants during the main event.
* After the feed ended, Wade Barrett came out with the other members of NXT. They stood over Gabriel (who I really thought was dead after that bump). Wade grabbed a mic and told everyone in attendance that he was sickened and disgusted by what he'd just seen and that tomorrow 'there would be payback'
I Found it funny that the Main Event Cage Match to be slow and boring, and I think if they would of had a few more match go a little bit long er then it wouldn't of be so slow. :?
Am i the only one who though The Miz would win MiTB?VanDerSar01
Nope, I picked it too. I just thought that Kane was too obvious of a pick to win for Smackdown. Or blinded by the hope that Christian would get a chance.
about time Kane got another championship ...seriously way over due
sadly it's only to set up him losing it to the undertaker....sigh
but oh well...better than rey still having it...which IMO was rey's month long reign just about the most insignificant reign of all time or what? i mean for the entire month long reign it was just rey not there one week and then the next 2-3 weeks is just him having an ankle injury sitting in the back...he didn't even have any in ring promos or anything...what a waste of a month, why did swagger even have to lose the title?

BS logic, of the Russo flavor. Rapid title switches lead to ratings.
Besides, they book this **** from week-to-week. Quite frankly, I would be surprised if Kane winning the belt was the plan a month or two ago.
In Rey's defense, these days, super majority of the title reigns are the most insignificant ever. The belt does not mean a damn thing. Not when the belt switching around every month, and everyone and their mom had a half-dozen or more title reigns.
Otherwise, for all the praise a lot of people give towards the Attitude Era, it was starting pointing for a lot of this BS.
