John Cena def. Chris Jericho by Disqualification
What I Liked:
It has been two years since we have seen them face one another. I thought the match was very well booked. Jericho was able to get some intelligent offense in, countering the Five Knuckle Shuffle into a Walls of Jericho, but then Cena able to counter with his attacks. The match was going at a good pace, but The Big Show comes out to attack. Jericho connects with the Walls of Jericho, but Show comes in and hits a leg drop onto Cena. Jericho looks at him and leaves so Show continues to attack Cena. The night ends with a smart Jericho leaving and saving himself, while Show attacks and leaves Cena laying.
What I Disliked:
A week ago, Show says he is moving on. We see him attack Cena once again, so it looks like the logic changed. They were very quick with having Show/Clay because it is such a step down for Big Show. I like the idea of Cena being a target, but what else do we need to see between these two guys? There is nothing else to show us, and a ladder match will not make it more interesting for these two guys. I assume they want to continue to build Show, and the fact that the lack of faces will ultimately hurt him. I wonder if Orton vs Show was in the minds of creative, since Orton is the second or third most popular star in the company. It was predictable and did nothing to further my interest in Show. This night should have focused much more on the return of Chris Jericho. Plain and simple.
