I had a feeling Sheamus/Show would be a good one and I wasn't disappointed. Sheamus works best against big guys. (i.e. Mark Henry, Tensai)

yeah Sheamus/Big Show was a solid *** 1/2 affair
Kofi/Miz was alright, the tag matches, Cesaro/Gabriel & Orton/Alberto were good as well, everything around the ** 1/2 mark
divas match was bad, but not too long or boring, Punk/Ryback was a 10 minute bore

I hated Show vs Sheamus. Punk vs Ryback seemes pretty good just for the energy of it.

Punk & Ryback for the fun factor of not knowing what was going to happen.

I thought Sheamus/Show would be horrible and it was a so-so match until the epic closing stages which turned into MOTN, although that isn't saying much.

Crowd was dead for most of Punk/Ryback. Show vs. Sheamus was a really good match, and not even a 'good considering Big Show sucks' match (I actually like Show but he's not one to put on classics).

Sheamus/Show was great. I anticipated it shitting the bed.

I thought Show vs Sheamus was dull. Just a typical slow, plodding Big Show match. Am surprised at the love it's getting here.

The Hell in a Cell gimmick should probably be retired at this point. I couldn't help thinking during that sub-TV quality main event how sanitized that had become. Remember HHH vs Batista? Brock vs Undertaker? No ridiculous stunts, just sheer brutality. If you can't deliver that, just don't bother. The match was barely ten minutes. When your second tier title match has to cover for you with loads of false finishes, you're in trouble.

Antonio Cesaro vs. Justin Gabriel followed closely by Miz vs Kofi...everything else was boring

WOW... When Sheamus vs. Big Show is by far the leading candidate for MOTN... you know you're discussing a poor, town killing show.
That said, I voted Cesaro vs. Gabriel... and it was barely 3 stars, in my book.

Orton/ADR. Sure it had that awkward ass spot in the middle of the match, but same damn fine selling by Orton and the crowd was more into that match than anything else on the show. Don't really get the love for Sheamus/Show, it was incredibly dull until the last 3 minutes or so.

Show/Sheamus was amazingly boring to me. Orton/ADR and PTP/Sinsterio were solid. |

Sheamus/Show followed closely by Orton/Del Rio with Cesaro/Gabriel taking the bronze.

Show vs. Sheamus bored me greatly until the last few minutes. The crowd came alive for it thankfully which added to it.

Voted Show/Sheamus. Don't agree that it was 'dull', I thought the story of Sheamus being thrown off by having to face such a giant but still trying to battle worked well. And when he hit White Noise and got into the finisher exchange, that's when it went from being solid to really, really good.

I thought Show vs Sheamus was dull. Just a typical slow, plodding Big Show match. Am surprised at the love it's getting here. So many write a match off if it's "slow". There's a story to tell, that Sheamus can't handle someone with Show's size and power, and you can't tell that story with athletic exchanges and technical wrestling. It's all about selling, and Sheamus did a great job of it. I feared it would be a Cena-special where Sheamus got destroyed for 15 minutes then hit his 5 moves and won, and was pleasantly surprised with how the second half went, with Sheamus hanging in and looking strong but Show not just laying down once Sheamus came back. Without the slow first half, you don't get the exciting second half. |
