    Match #1: John Morrison vs CM Punk 7/10


    Good opener. The first minutes were really slow paced, but it got really fast out of no where. Punk hit the Oklahoma roll up, but Morrison reversed and got the win again over the World Champion. It suprised me last time that he won, and it suprised me again that he won again.

    Match #2: R-Truth vs Kane 4/10


    Who actually thought that Truth had a chance in this one? Kane dominated from beginning to end and got the pin when Truth went off the top rope and got hit with a big boot in mid air.

    Segment #1 Layla Dances and is interrupted by Ricky Ortiz 0/10


    It looked liked WWE was trying to promote Layla as a face since this is her hometown. Ricky interuppts for no reason, just to promote his towels as Layla walks away.

    Match #3: Cryme Tyme & Eve vs The Hart Dynasty 5.75/10


    Dull match with a even duller finish. Natalya got the win for the Hart Dynasty after a clothline...that's right, a frikin clothline. Eve sold it well by rolling backwards, but you can tell that Natalya was the one that could have put more force into it. Score between Hart Dyanasty and Cryme Tyme 2-2 (tie).

    Segment #2 "Pretty Ricky" out on the street 0/10


    Please WWE, please get rid of these R-Truth segments!!!

    Segment #3 Edge addresses his injury in an interview from his house 9.25/10


    I loved how loud the crowd was cheering for him (note that this was the loudest the crowd was cheering for this episode). Edge, as always, cut a fantastic promo about how "If.....When I [Edge] come back" he will prove everyone wrong including Jericho (because he came out to insult how fragile Edge was, while he has never had an injury in his career. Good way to promote Jericho more of a heel, while Edge a face.

    Match #4: Rey Mysterio & Jeff Hardy vs Chris Jericho & Dolph Ziggler 7/10


    Good main event. A lot like the opener, it started slow paced for the opening minutes and turned fast in a flash. The ending was confusing. I needed to double check on the web site to double check the results. Punk pushed Jericho onto Jeff onto steel steps. Despite Jeff getting the worst of it, he was DQ'ed since Jericho was the person that was touched.

    Overall 7/10


    Good episode with a good opener, good tag match, and fantastic promo from Edge who isn't going to be seen in a wrestling ring for some time.moreless

    • Jeff Hardy: See, Punk, you just don't get it. You keep bringing up my mistakes like I'm trying to hide behind something. But let me straighten something out. Everybody makes mistakes. I've made mistakes, I've been suspended twice, I admit that. But I haven't failed a test in over a year and I have never been to rehab, I've always healed myself, and at Night of Champions, I will beat CM Punk.

    • CM Punk: This is what it comes to? People actually cheering because you haven't failed a drug test in a year. This is not an accomplishment. Maybe it's an accomplishment to you, Jeff, so congratulations, you didn't fail a drug test in 365 days. We can start writing your Hall of Fame speech right now.

    • CM Punk: "Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it." Did you ever hear that in school? No, probably not because you were a screw-up then too. How many exams did you fail? How many classes did you skip? How many times were you expelled? Jeff Hardy: Ah, I get it. So you're not a wrestler, you're my guidance counsellor!

    • Ricky Ortiz: Layla, you think these people really wanna see you dance? What these people need is inspiration, what they need is motivation. I mean, besides, when's the last time Miami Heat's been any good? Layla, your dancing's not going to help them, but I am. Your boy, Ricky Ortiz, is here in Miami to personally rally you up!
