Missed part of the main event because I nodded off.  I did manage to catch the end which was very good.  For some reason, I cheered when Cena decked Laurantis.  I'll have to rewatch the main event but at least they didn't go with the standard Cena gets beat down/makes superhero comeback routine.  Cole was really annoying during the PPV.

MITB matches delivered.  I think the Smackdown one was slightly better only because there were better workers in that one.  I thought Barrett come out looking pretty good out of that match along with Sheamus.

Raw one was better than anticipated.  I did like how they planned it out where there was a scrum of wrestlers near the top vying for the case.  I would have been peeved if Miz won it in a cheap fashion though.

Orton/Christian was ok.  I liked their other encounters more.  Crowd seemed to be cheering both guys though.  Orton must have screwed up on one of those RKOs near the table because I'm pretty sure the announcers table was supposed to break on one of those RKOs.

Henry/Show was good.  I had zero expectations for this match.  But they kept it relatively short and we got to see Henry break out a submission maneuver.  Plus the post match beatdown was good.

On the end, I would have actually liked to see CM Punk steal the red MITB briefcase from Del Rio as well.  That would have been hilarious.  It's weird that I actually like some of the WWE gimmick ppvs if only because you're guaranteed to get wrestling that deviates from WWE style.
