I really enjoyed it to, I wasn't sure what format it was going to take but I thought it came off well, especially with those profiles before matches to give an instant insight into the characters, I mean they should do that more with guys on the main brands.  Heck we already know more about some of these new guys than we do the likes of Barretta, Croft, Primo etc.

Otunga is set up perfectly as the cocky heel, I mean his real life exploits are a gift for the writers, over the years they've spent time creating a character like him, with Otunga it's ready made stuff that just needs tweaking in the right direction.  Famous gf/wife, seen at all the A-List parties, met the President etc. and so on, it's like when MNM use to talk trash about how they hung out with all these big names, difference with Otunga is its legit and people buy into that stuff.  His match was very quick though, doesn't bode well for Darren Young, unless he's going to adopt Straight Edge and suddenly start winning.

Heath Slater was good to, if not a little goofy.  Daniel Bryan is definately getting the initial focus as the star attraction, Jericho, Miz and Cole all focusing on him, I look forward to his feud with The Miz.

Wade Barrett was great on the mic to, someone more cocky and arrogant than even Jericho.
