Thoughts on Raw/Backlash/ECW

Backlash was cool. Better than I expected, too. The matches were a little less predictable, too. I thought that was odd, because usually I'm right when I predict a match. Anyway, let's observe each match, shall we?:

Matt Hardy vs. MVP- U.S. Championship
Matt Hardy wins. Not what I predicted. This gets 4 out of 5 stars.

ECW Title- Kane vs. Chavo Guerrero w/Bam Neely
O.K. match. I knew Kane would win. 2 out of 5 stars. I'm being very generous by giving it 2 stars.

The Great Khali vs. Big Show
I didn't think the show would win. Good match, with alot of submission holds. 3 out of 5 stars.

Shawn Michaels vs. Batista Special ref Chris Jericho
Not that bad, but not great. 3 out of 5 stars.

12 Diva Tag Team match
Every lackluster PPV has a crappy divas match. I was right about the outcome, but 1 out of 5 stars.

World Heavyweight Title- Edge vs. The Undertaker
The Undertaker wins in a 4 star match.

WWE title match, elimanation fatal four way match- John Cena vs. Triple H vs. JBL vs. Randy Orton
Unpredictable ending, and a good match. 5 out of 5 stars here. This and the U.S. Title match stole the show.

Thoughts on Raw:

Raw was pretty good. This guy I know, Nick, was there. The Kennedy/Regal thing was gold. Trevor Murdoch looked like a retard singing to Lance Cade. Countrymusicfest is in June, Murdoch. I didn't get Regal taking Raw off the air during the main event though. I mean, what could you possibly do with that? Creative team sucks.

Thoughts on ECW:

3 words: ECW IS SCREWED. Well, I don't know if ECW is a word, but still. How are they going to work with Tazz and Adamle leaving the ring. What the hell does that lead to? I hope this is Adamle's firing storyline. I can't listen to "Get Bizzay", "Mike The Miz", "Jamaican me crazy", "The Tazz", and "Da Duece" much longer.

Official Backlash Predictions

Sorry I haven't blogged in a few days. I'm a very busy man. I have to wake up, brush my teeth, get dressed, and eat breakfast. That's like, 6 things. Anyway, here are my official Backlash predictions. Remeber that I predict the matches in the order I think they will appear on the card:

1st match: ECW title match- Kane vs. Chavo Guerrero w/ Bam Neely
I know this match will be first- it is at almost every PPV. I think Kane will take the gold in this one. If I were in charge, I'd make this a 10-15 minute match. I would also have the ref get knocked out, allowing Bam to interfere. If any of that happens, this match would exceed it's very low expectations.

2nd match: 12 Diva tag team match
I think that Natalya's team will win this. Normally, this match would be quick, but based on the rather-long-for-divas match between Cherry and Natalya on SD, this match will go for about 10-15 minutes.

3rd match: U.S. title- MVP vs. Matt Hardy
MVP will win, but this match will steal the show. This match will probably run for a good 30 minutes.

4th match: Big Show vs. The Great Khali
This is going to be bore-fest, spring 2008. As Batista said in his book, when 2 big guys meet, it never works out. This match will end in double count-out and will run for 10-15 minutes.

5th match: The Undertaker vs. Edge- WHC match
I know that most of you are thinking this should be the main event, but it won't be. It was the main event at WM24 only because they didn't want to end WM on a sour note by having Orton win. The Undertaker wins in 30-35 minutes with the submission hold.

6th match: Batista vs. Shawn Michaels w/ special ref Chris Jericho
This match is a good 30 minute match. Batista wins.

Main event: Randy Orton vs. John Cena vs. JBL vs. Triple H- WWE title elimanation match
This should be a long one. Avery long one. I say John Cena is elimanated first, after a closeline from hell followed by a pedigree. Then JBL is elimanated after a pedigree. Triple H looks good, but after the pedigree, he is RKO'd. Triple H kicks out. They fight outside, and Orton is pedigreed through a table. Triple H tries to pin him, btu Orton kicks out. Stuff happens, and Orton wins.

Yep, so that's what I think will happen. I still think they should add a mid-card rivalry match to help shorten matches like Show/Khali and Batista/HBK. Maybe Mr.Kennedy's return. He wasn't injured, he was just filming a movie in a foriegn country. Maybe he could fight someone like Super Crazy. Or better yet, Hardcore Holly and Cody Rhodes could fight Santino and Carlito. Non-title though. They can save that for Raw. If that match did happen, it would last a good 10-20 minutes.

Backlash is soon

Wrestlemania is behind us and now, we're on the road to Backlash. Speaking of the big BL, here are some matches I'd like to see at the PPV:

Kane vs. Chavo Guerrero: ECW title match
I'm definetely sure that this will happen at Backlash. If it does, Kane should win.

The Undertaker vs. Edge: WHC match
If you read the SD spoilers, you know that this is going to happen at Backlash. It's a normal match, but i'd like to see a gimmick match. Edge is Vickie fiance, so Vickie could've made it a NO DQ match or a street fight, just to give Edge the advantage.

Batista vs. Shawn Michaels
If you read the SD spoilers, you'd know that these 2 have a little arguement on SD. I'd like to turn that arguement into a match at Backlash. If it were to happen, Batista would come out on top.

The Miz and John Morrison vs. Jesse and Festus: WWE tag team titles
This match has happened alot, but never made it to PPV level. I think that these 2 teams should face off in a last chance match. I would like Jesse and Festus to win this one.

MVP vs. Matt Hardy: If Hardy wins he gets a title shot at Judgemnt Day
This could be good. MVP would win though.

WWE title match: Randy Orton vs. John Cena, Last Man Standing match
This is the match that was postponed! The one that never happened! It would be a great main event. Randy Orton would win.

30 man battle royal: winner faces Randy Orton at Judgement Day
Triple H could win this. After all, he's the one on the Judgement Day poster.

Oh, and here's the order I'd put them in:

Matt Hardy vs. MVP: If Hardy wins, he gets a title shot at Judgement Day

WWE tag team titles: Miz and Morrison vs. Jesse and Festus

ECW title: Kane vs. Chavo Guerrero

30 man #1 contender's battle royal

The Undertaker vs. Edge: WHC match

Batista vs. Shawn Michaels

John Cena vs. Randy Orton: Last Man Standing match for WWE title
