Never break up Shield. I could watch a match like that every week. And I pretty much have for the last year.

Daniel Bryan hot-tag: worth the price of admission. Never seen anyone do it better. Undertaker?

Ambrose sold it like he got hit by a car. The man is underrated as hell in the ring, espeically his selling. He's kind of pidgeonholed as crazy faces/promo guy, but he's definitely more than that.

True, he is awesome at it. But better than Bryan? I don't know if I can say that. I also think he's got the best Five Moves of Doom sequence out of any main event face I've watched over the years. Must be dat backflip.

Yeah the main event was fun but let's go back to the center piece of this show, namely the gauntlet deal. HHH's antics here was quite fascinating and I much preferred this heel boss to his more blatant Bryan screwing. I do wonder if it leaves too many gaps to fill in for the average fan though. As in did HHH screw over Ryder/Gabriel by putting them against the Wyatts? Eh, I wouldn't say so. The RVD thing was more interesting since it was ambiguous. Did HHH set him up there or did Alberto have the attack already in mind? Is ADR now HHH's boy in the absence of a WWE champion? I said a little while ago that there was an understated storyline going on between HHH/RVD going back to RVD speaking up against HHH. Since then HHH put him in the Orton match (which saw Orton DDT him from the ring to the floor and Del Rio viciously beat him down afterwards), a Ryback match where Ryback rammed RVD's nuts into the ring post for a DQ, Alberto getting himself DQed at the PPV intentionally, and now this scenario tonight. It's a fun bit of business that the announcers haven't been selling until tonight.

As much as I enjoyed being out with my church friends, I still hate that I had to miss this. May just check it out on Universal tomorrow.

I do think ADR is looking to be one of HHH's "good for business" boys after HHH set up RVD for him tonight, but I didn't fill all of that in together. RVD mentioned that HHH is the one that brought him back, so maybe HHH sees it as a combination of being good for business to bring back a star that fans like, and an opportunity to f*** him over because he never liked him.

Precisely, which is why I am feeling some sort of epic screwing of RVD at Battleground. I think the match itself might be fairly clean and they can't do yet another ref angle, but much like NoC the face will prevail but not really win. We know 1) HHH has it in for RVD for speaking up and for taking part in the 10 guys saving Bryan. 2) Ever since the battle royale before SS, RVD has had an on again/off again issue with The Shield. 3) RVD has a feud with Del Rio. 4) Even though Sandow has the briefcase, he's been getting beaten on TV a lot including 3 different matches vs. RVD. 5) RVD was getting his ribs looked at tonight.
Do the math here. RVD triumphs over Alberto, but post match The Shield run in to kick the absolute crap out of RVD, beat him with chairs, triple power bomb, etc. Then Sandow cashes in on him, RVD goes off for a while to sell the injury, has a feud with Sandow waiting when he returns and has a new 90 day window.

Random note: I find it amusing that Triple H has a poster of a magazine featuring his regime's most hated enemy on the cover in his office.

It's a fun bit of business that the announcers haven't been selling until tonight. I think it was a case of Vickie trying to suck up to the McMahon's by having the Runin-10 taken out. The problem is, is that it was obviously meant to hurt them, and HHH, being the maniacal evil on (as opposed to the obviously evil one that Stephanie is and Vince would be), doesn't want that. He wants them taken out, but in a much more subtle way, so you can't say he is trying to hurt them on purpose, while still making it seem like they have a chance at winning. Hence, Kofi vs. Axel, the 3 man tag team match toning, albeit against The Shield, and even Ryder/Gabriel vs. The Wyatt Family. If they lose and are attsacked like Ryder and Gabriel, then HHH wins. If the win like D-Bry and the Usos or Kofi, he'll find some other way to hurt them.
