R-Truth vs Kenny Dykstra. I really enjoyed this little confrontation. The promo Kenny gave was delivered perfectly and what made it even better was that it was so damn true and felt as if it came straight from the heart. Nice quick match, but I thought Killings looked a tad slow to start off with, but he soon picked up. Got a good look about him and I enjoyed his finisher as I originally thought it was just going to be like Bookers, but the little twist made it better visually.
Divas Tag. Didn't pay attention to it, but I liked the confrontation before the match between Maryse and Michelle because I had a little smirk on my face when Michelle something along the lines of Maryse never being champion because she didn't have talent. Just found it ironic :lol2
Jeff vs MVP. I always forgot to watch SmackDown for the most part even though I downloaded and record it, but everytime I do catch it, i'm drawn into this feud. The promo's have been truly fantastic and the matches have been great to. I love the intensity and how personal the feud has gotten because of the MVP promo's when he says that Jeff will never become WWE Champion because of how much of a liability he is with all that's happened. Much like the Dykstra promo, it felt so real as if Vince or management was actually saying it to Jeff.
Brie Bella vs Victoria. The match just plain sucked, but for me personally I cared more about how they pulled the switch off. If your a regular fan who doesn't read all the spoilers and the developmental people being brough up and what not, you really would have no idea that she was a twin and would have been a bit like "huh" when the switch happened. Because I knew she was a twin and the switch was coming, I understood it but it's going to be interesting to see how they integrate the other twin over the next couple of weeks. Hopefully the hints will be a bit stronger next time.
Shelton vs HHH. For the most part I missed this match so I will go back and rewatch it. What I did see though I was impressed with. I love how Shelton was the aggressor for the large part of the match until the closing stages. I really would of loved to see Shelton steal a victory because of Khali's presence. The aftermatch attack could have still happened, it's just a Shelton win could of been so unbelievably huge.
