WOW! What a day!
Got up this morning for the Breakfast in the hotel and then just chilled out for most of the day before heading down to the Reliant Stadium about 3pm. Me, Lawlor and Euan met up with Lauren, Gary and Katie down there. We all went into the stadium and went our separate ways as we were all sat in different places...then when I'm sat in my seat, I turn around, and there's Lauren and Gary sat in the seat behind me...how very odd!
The set was awesome, the arena was huge.
The show kicked off with a lumberjack tag-team title unification match in which Carlito and Primo took all four belts. We then had Nicole Scherzinger (or however you spell it) warbling America The Beautiful.
When the show kicked in, the Money In The Bank Ladder Match was the opener on Live TV. It was a typical big-fall, high intensity match and surprisingly, they gave the win to CM Punk!
Next up was a cool performance by Kid Rock which led to the Divas Battle Royal, won in some style, by Santina...Santino's sister...!
Jericho was out next to face Superfly Snuka, Roddy Piper and Ricky Steamboat. Steamboat actually put in a decent performance and I certainly wouldn't begrudge him coming back to the WWE full time! He's still got it.
Typically, Jericho won and then offered on Mickey Rourke who then nailed him in the ring.
Brother Vs Brother next...wow...those two really went crazy on each other. Matt picked up a nice victory after a Twist Of Fate whilst Jeff had a chair wrapped around his neck.
Next up, JBL came out and bad-mouthed Texas, then Rey Mysterio came out and beat him in about 30 seconds leading to JBL quitting the WWE. I think he could be going back to commentary.
Then it came...the best match ever seen in the WWE. It will go down in history as being epic. HBK Vs Undertaker. It was intense and emotional. Back and forth. The arena was going insane by the end of it. People were talking about this match long into the night! Undertaker's streak stayed alive.
Then we had to sit through Cena/Edge/Big Show's match which was half decent with Cena picking up the title with a double F-U, picking them both up!
Then an odd Main Event. HHH vs Orton. Everyone expected Legacy to get involved...they didn't...everyone expexted the McMahon's to screw HHH...they didn't...everyone expected Orton to win...he didn't!
It was a very weak finish to an otherwise awesome show.
I have loads of photos that I have uploaded to Facebook, so check them out on there.
Just gotta start saving for Phoenix, Arizona in 2010 now...!
