In a rare occurrence, I did catch the three-hour RAW replay and the King of the Ring tournament. And it was alright. Just a couple quick thoughts:
– Sheamus is king. Good for him, he deserved it. In fact, I didn’t think anyone was more qualified to win this tournament than the Celtic Warrior… or do we call him the Celtic King now?
– The main event between Miz and Lawler… good stuff. Props to the King who looked great and was able to keep up with the younger Miz. However, I didn’t like that Miz needed Michael Cole’s help in retaining his title. That wasn’t awesome, man. Other than that, a solid main event with an end result you saw coming, but at least it was entertaining.
– On a related note, nice work on the Lawler video montage. WWE production crews do some nice work with these things.
– Remember when Shawn Michaels retired and gave that heartfelt speech early in 2010? Remember not seeing him ever again on WWE TV (for the foreseeable future) outside of montages? Yeah, somebody better send that tape to John Cena, because being FIRED means YOU DON’T SHOW UP. ASSHOLE. (Sorry, Ken.)
That’s about it, really.
