I may sound jaded, but I'm kind of sick of big returns amounting to nothing. Lesnar just lost his first match since his return and Jericho still hasn't had a win since he came back either. WWE just doesn't know how to build momentum or build anything up properly
I love Jericho's work, but I'm disappointed that since his return he has been the same Jericho he was before he left. He talks a big game, but then jobs out constantly. I know you can't have him beat Punk in Chicago of all places, but maybe they should have just given Jericho a win at Mania. You can't make all this fuss about big names like Jericho and Lesnar coming back and then just have the guys lose their matches. Building up stars, WWE just can't get this right anymore
If Cena really is leaving, then Brock should have destroyed him AND won the match. This was bad booking.
I really enjoyed Punk/Jericho's match. I hate that Jericho lost AGAIN, but I tend to think those "if Punk loses we riot fans" aren't joking, so I guess WWE made the right call there. With two losses to Punk though, Jericho looks VERY weak right now.
I really wish Bryan and Sheamus had a bit more time. It was all great until the finish. I hate when a face gets his ass kicked the entire match and then just gets a second win, beats down the heel and nails a brogue kick to end the match. That was lame. That third fall should have been a long time in coming and should have been more hard fought for Sheamus. I'm tired of super hero faces (looking at you Cena) who can just go super saiyan at any time during a match and bust out an easy win. The hero should have to bust his ass for a victory. WWE is too heavily biased towards faces. We need to get away from Hulk Hogan era booking.
I love Layla. Seriously, she's gorgeous and fun and I've got a serious crush on that woman, but her match just seemed off and the crowd wanted Karma. Eve even through the fact that Karma wasn't there in our faces in that backstage bit. Ah well, guess I'll just go watch those videos I posted of the Gail Kim/Awesome Kong feud again as I wait forever for Karma to make her WWE return.
If I sound kind of harsh towards this event, it may be because I'm starting to get a little annoyed at the price point for these shows. I can watch two back to back movies on demand for ten bucks total, but it cost me fifty bucks for a WWE pay per view. It really puts a dent on my wallet and I'm starting to feel a bit more demanding towards these shows given their high price
