I'm actually at a loss for words tonight. The show was good, but really, quite sad, too. Honestly, I can't believe Edge is retiring. He's one of my all time favorites, and it absolutely SUCKS. But, like he said, at least he's not ending up in a wheel chair. So, while I'm sad that he's retiring, at least he's going to have a better life because of it. And honestly, this was BY FAR the biggest news of the show. In fact, if it wasn't for The Rock and Cena booking their WrestleMania match for next year, it might be the biggest news of the year. I'm really anxious to see SmackDown this week to see what happens there. I'll be damn shocked if they don't put Christian in the ladder match against ADR for the title at Extreme Rules. Damn shocked. As for the rest of the show, it was good. The gauntlet match was good to end the night, and really unexpected. I basically expected Cena to win...which he did...sorta. What I didn't expect was R-Truth to make it all the way to the end and face Cena. Lastly, I expected Cena to win, especially given that R-Truth had been in the match as the third competitor. And he didn't. It ended up being a double DQ thanks to The Miz and Riley interfering and taking both of them out, only to screw The Miz. Because of that, it's going to be a triple threat match for the title - The Miz vs. John Cena vs. R-Truth. Should be an interesting match...and I'd almost not be shocked if Truth somehow wins. Beyond that...Orton got attacked in that match after he got eliminated by the returning New Nexus. One of the Bellas won the Diva's Championship (yay?). And speaking of Diva's, there was a vignette for Awesome Kong right before that match. If you don't know who she is, Wiki her. She's huge, and should be able to obliterate everyone in that division. Jerry also beat Swagger so he gets his rematch against Cole at Extreme Rules...and it's going to be a tag match. Him and JR vs. Cole and Swagger. The kicker here though is that Cole slapped Swagger and embarrassed him, so the likelihood of those two seeing eye to eye is not good, and I have a good hunch that that match could turn out to be 3 vs. 1. Oh, and Sin Cara beat Primo in his debut. One match in, and he's already one of my favorite wrestlers. His moveset is incredible, and his finisher that he ended the match with was incredible. For those that didn't see it, I will post the video of it. But basically imagine a back-flip Rock Bottom...from the top rope. Sick. But yea, good show, but really sad given the situation with Edge. What makes it even sadder is that it wasn't pre-determined like Shawn's was. It's something that he HAD to do, because he could no longer get medical clearance. It was a damn shame, but at least he's walking away with a decent bill of health instead of in a wheel chair.
The finishing move is around the 1:20 mark. I couldn't find a video of JUST the finisher, and this was the shortest video that I could find that had that. [video=youtube;gNCZiqmILvU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNCZiqmILvU[/video]
Overall It was a pretty awesome show. Sad to see Edge leave since I've been a huge fan of his since his brood days. But Sin Cara Definitely stole the show once again in my honest opinion. And its nice to see that R Truth is finally getting the push he deserves.
