Nash was going to win but then he took a light breeze to the knee.

Whether you want to admit it or not, he gave it his all. For a 52 year old 7 foot guy with lots of injuries, he put on a good performance. I've always been a big fan of his, but I still didn't expect the match to be as good as it turned out to be.

I liked the ending and a few bits and pieces but it was by far the worst match and felt out of place on the current youth movement of WWE. Tag Match, Big Show/Henry, Divas match, Swagger/Sheamus were all worse. |

Nash is done wrestling. I do hope he is utilized in other ways though as despite his many flaws in the past and dirt sheet rumors, I like him. If hes not wrestling, I'm not not going to miss that aspect.
The match is what it was. It was a good match from the storytelling perspective and I thought the psychology of both men was on full display. I still dont like the idea of it being a ladder match, espc when it doesnt end once sledgie comes down. It was a bit goofy in that respect and the pace of the match was grating in places. They got the job done though.

For all the complaints about it being a "slow" match, I thought it was a lot faster-paced than this year's HHH vs. Undertaker at WM.
Most of this one was fairly straightforward brawling, but there was a lot less in the way of stalling and rest breaks than I expected.
I don't know, I have a hard time believing anyone would dislike this match unless they came in wanting to hate it from the get-go.

I thought the use of Sledgie while hewas still hanging was great too, I don't remember anyone doing that with the briefcase or the belts.

I was genuinely impressed with this match. Even that light fall through the ropes by Nash was more activity than he'd shown since the 90s.
At the end of the day, Nash was getting hit by ladders and he took a bump through a table despite a history of injuries. As far as I'm concerned, that's some level of redemption in my eyes from Nash. Nash has no need to be taking bumps like that now, he could've just had a really shitty match and coasted by for a paycheque as he always has before. But Nash was actually TRYING.
Good for Nash for trying to make up for lack of effort in the past, or stepping up now as he was instructed too rather than just staying at home like he easily could have.

This was how Miz won his MitB briefcase, I forget who he beaned in the face with the case. I remember some people winning title belts this way as well, but I would have to rack my addled brain to recall who exactly. |

I thought Miz tipped the ladder over when Orton was on it & then climbed to win it. I do remember Swagger doing it w/the briefcase at WM 26 to Christian. |

Eh I think it wasnt as bad as it could of been but I dont know if that means it was "good". I can see why someone would dislike it pretty easily. I dont know about hate but eh it was kinda bad. I mean triple h did what he could and he took some awesome bumps but nash was so shot it was kinda hard to watch in places and kinda just too slow. It wasnt as bad as the mark henry big show matches though. |

So going by Nash's latest tweet, his return was solely to put over his 42 year old buddy - again.
The match itself wasn't too bad and I give them both credit for that but the whole angle has been pointless and deflected too much attention from where it should've been with CM Punk.
