Finished watching Smackdown, another decent show, only thing I didn't like was Layla taking up time and the R-Truth vs. Kane match.

Cryme Tyme & Eve vs. The Hart Dynasty was very enjoyable, that clothesline that Natayla hit on Eve looked fantastic and Eve to her credit did a good job of selling it, as embarrased as I am to say it I'm even liking the "Word Up" segments now, at least Jesse has an existence because of them  :D

Punk and Morrison kicked things off with another good match in their little feud on the side, not as good as the first one but very enjoyable nonetheless it shows how far Morrison has come as an in-ring star because I remember when these 2 feuded on ECW I didn't really enjoy it or the matches, now the idea of these 2 fighting is a dream pairing.  Punk's slow heel turn continued nicely with refusing the handshake.  And going back to Punk his pre-match promo with Jeff was great again as he made some really good points, Jeff has so many fans, kids and he is such a bad example when he takes pride in the fight that he has never been to rehab and oh wow he's been clean for 365 days.

The Main Event was very enjoyable and the finish worked with the Punk is he really a heel storyline?  Jeff looked to throw Jericho at Punk, so Punk just threw him back, and an angered Punk understandbly left Jeff in the ring being beaten down, why would he help his opponent 9 days before Night of Champions?  That would just be stupid.
