Cody did a great job selling Show’s moves and making it seem like he was exerting a lot to bring him down. Afterall, he’s been doing this for a long, long time but if you’re going to put him on in a title match at WrestleMania you should expect nothing and hope you come out with something. Show is a great character and I enjoy him but he doesn’t do much in the ring anymore. I’ve long said that Big Show’s matches are way passed being fun these days. Kudos for the spot-on, well performed match, and surprise ending. The high spot at the end with the chokeslam was great and I was very surprised to see Kane go over on Orton at WrestleMania. Like I said, exactly what you’d think an Orton vs. To be fair, this week’s Smackdown was pretty good with Cowboy Bob Orton so we’ll see.Īs for the match? It wasn’t bad. He’s just attacking random people and hoping it works with the crowd. As for Kane, I like his current style and renewed vigor but I don’t feel like he has anything going for him. WWE needs to let him stretch his legs like he used to. The guy has charisma and can work a mic way better what he is doing. I like Orton! I was a big fan of his during his Evolution, Legend Killer, and even the Legacy days. I can’t get into Orton anymore since his “angry guy” gimmick is so stale it is unbearable.

I could have seen this on any other PPV during the year but to call it a WrestleMania-caliber match would be wrong. This was what you’d expect out of these two, honestly. The Diva’a match was longer! (note: don’t take that as a bad thing but this is the World Title match) One year after these two were snubbed off of WM27 for a US Title match, we see them rise to the top of the company only to be put down like dogs. The filler match on the car, Orton/Kane, was almost a 10-minute match. 18 seconds? Really? How do you justify putting two rising stars in a huge match featuring the World Champion and the Royal Rumble winner and have it last 18 seconds? Brodus Clay and the Bridge Club had more time. It took me longer to write that bolded headline than this match to end.
