Do they really think someone from the snorking VIEW is going to get MVP over? They're trying to get MVP over with women, and in particular, black women. Odd, given he doesn't show off his body.

I've just watched the whole show, and not once do they mention Kane's win over CM Punk, which makes me think they completely changed their plans between Sunday and Tuesday and want you to forget about that.
Good show overall, but it just seems like the only people who bother cheering at these shows any more are the kids. There are lots of them, but it does means the heat doesn't carry as well in the arena and put over the events occurring as much as you used to get back in the day. The only time you really hear adult masculine crowd noise is actually during the Eve-Layla brawl with the 'let them fight' chants. I guess for the most part the parents aren't into it. It's certainly one of the most family dominated MSG shows I've seen in a long time.

Just watched the show, and man if this is how SD is shaping up for months to come, it's must see every week.
I saw something about Morrison turning or not turning here ... make no mistake, he's going face. He won clean, used all his flashy offense, never cheated, and played to the crowd for a bit after his win. Then confronting Chris backstage as well. He wasn't acting like his old heel self at all.
The 4 way was great, the main was really good, and the opening segment was totally awesome. Everything Jericho was on camera tonight it was awesome. This could end up being his show really quickly if he keeps this great work up.

What a great episode of SmackDown. From now on, this is going to be can't-miss television for me.
One thing that has me highly interested is the face turning of John Morrison. I'm a huge Morrison mark and I like the idea of him getting to work babyface so that he can show off all his flashy offense and also work with some new opponents. As MGH said, all the telltale signs were there. He was smiling during his entrance, played to the crowd, and won clean. Then later, he sees Teddy Long and just says "What's up, Teddy?" in a friendly fashion, then brawls with uber-heel Chris Jericho. I'm really excited to see where they take him.

Is it wrong that the biggest thing I'm looking forward to tonight is Morrison as a babyface?

Do they really think someone from the snorking VIEW is going to get MVP over? Only if it's that Elisabeth Hasselbeck chick. Yeah, she's dumb as a doorknob, but who cares? She's hot!

MSG crowds are usually crazy, but WWE just isn't the same anymore.
