Summerslam 2007

So went to see it with D at the theatre. No one else was avail to go with. He said that it was better to go to the theatre instead of watching it at home (just needed 1 more person to make it cost-effective to stay at home), b/c he liked the bigger experience. I have suspicions it's b/c he didn't want to do any housework. Which I asked him to do before I left for Warp. B/c he's been doing nothing but surfing or playing on his computer every day and night. Which of course he never did when I returned 4 hrs later.

I really wanted to know who was McMahon's son. Although the Mae Young skit was hilarious. Especially when Vince said it wasn't that bad. Fabulous Moolah looks really thin. During all the inbetween matches, I pulled out my DS Lite and played Pokemon LeafGreen. Levelled up about 4 pokemon. Someone next to me even asked what I was playing.

Anyways, for the matchs, liked the Findley v Kane one. I think Hornswoggle added a good dimension to Findley's character. I was cheering for Findley, and it was pretty good work from the both of them.

Umaga v Carlito v Kennedy was pretty good too. Everyone almost got all their spots in, although Carlito only got his flying elbow. It was quite entertaining when you have 2 talkers in the match who wrestle smart.

Mysterio v Chavo was good too. I'm not sure why Mysterio came out covered in silver paint. Maybe to say that he's a ghost from the past to haunt Chavo? Seemed to have gained some weight around the middle, and not the same intensity as before he left. But w/ his buddy Chavo against him, they pulled off a good match. I'm sure he'll be back to normal soon enough. The luchadore at the beginning was cool once they got it figured out.

Divas Battle Royale kinda sucked. I wish they didn't get rid of so many of the ECW ones like Ariel and Trinity. They looked like they could tussle. The stupid dancers were sad. Glad Beth won. Think I was the only one that cared. Ticked that it wasn't a final 4 of Victoria v Beth v Malina v Mickie James. That woulda been cool and more like the male battle royale finishes.

Liked the Austin entrance. Saw it a mile away. Had 2 marks sitting next to me, and even after the audience started chanting Austin and going "what?" they were still trying to figure it out.

CM Punk v John Morrison was bleh. They can do sooo much better. They've done better in the TV broadcasts. Very disappointing from them. Compared to the other matches, wasn't too bad.

Batista v Khali was bad. Too short and pointless. If Khali's not ready to do an extended match, they shouldn't make him champ.

Orton v Cena. Gawd I wanted Cena to lose, and so did half the crowd. Unfortunately the 2 marks were split btwn them so they were shrieking every other second. And there was an idiot Cena fan behind me. So I was plugging my ears half the time. When Orton started schooling Cena, I knew he'd lose. Just like HBK. But Orton did a really good job, so hopefully he'll have some more big matches.

HHH v Booker. HHH seems to have moved off the 'roids. Looks good still, but not at as big. I wonder if it's b/c they mentioned steroids being a factor in the Benoit tragedy. Didn't have some of the moves, but his intensity was good. Nothing too surprising from either of them except at the end w/ the reversals. But it's cool to see HHH really thank the fans.

And once again, no one cares about the tag team division. Or the cruiserweights. What happened to Jeff Hardy? Did he fall off the rehab again? As much as I hate to say it, I hope he's been MIA b/c he was injured.
