Winner: Randy Orton
Thoughts: Randy Orton winning i don’t have a problem as long as they turn him heel. If they don’t its a waste. Randy hasn’t been in the Top title picture in awhile, so its a good change for him. I do think he will face John Cena at Summerslam for the WWE Title. Daniel Bryan getting cheated out by Curtis Axel. Well i don’t think its a horrible downgrade. I think his push will continue & from a character standpoint it goes for a tag team partner / weak link to an ass kicking machine. RVD was great in here hitting all the moves he is known for. CM Punk getting screwed over by Paul Heyman didn’t have to happen here but it sets up A Brock Lesnar fight at Summerslam. This match was good & i think lived up to the hype 3-5*
Overall this PPV Rating: 6.5-10. The Ladder matches was great , the world title was great. The WWE Title match was decent & was slow for the first ten minutes of nothing but boring. The last five minutes was entertaining. As far as the under card i was intrigued or even interested in. Divas title match was standard. Ryback vs. Jericho was decent but the only thing good about it wa the near falls. The Intercontinental match i couldn’t wait for it to be over.
