Not a horrible show last night. Really building up big to "Homecoming", which will be near PPV quality - they definitely want to come out with a BANG for their re-premier on USA. Had to laugh at the silencing of references to USA Network, although JR/Coach/King slipped some more in there later on during matches. Given that Spike has been promoting TNA, and VKM took the 1st minute of his speech to thank Spike for the 5 year relationship, it seemed pretty cheap to try to cover references to USA Network. Was Palmer Cannon behind it? ;-)
Snitsky really does suck, although I always love the flimsy metal garbage can 'damage'. Gimme a trash can shot over a steel chair shot any day of the week.
How about Flair pimping HHH's return and him being his "best friend"? I presume this is more setting up HHH's 'turn' on Flair and not a face return by HHH. I loved Flair's line though: "I've been jumped more times than you can count...but I always get back up, and I always get even".
Masters is actually improving, both on screen/mic and in the ring....although that last match really seemed VERY poorly done near the end. Masters literally seemed to be looking around to see if it was safe to get up....everyone seemed to be stalling awaiting Angle and Bisch's appearances. Did like the Angle slam onto the table though.
How about a 30-man ironman match between HBK and Angle?!?!? Wow! That's tape-worthy. Edge/Hardy should be huge. You have your obligatory T&A with a bra/panties match between the 5 feuding divas and the "title" match between Cena and Bisch coupled with all of the legends coming back. Gotta admit, VKM knows how to make a show.

And how will Stone Cold get involved? Will he aid Cena, who will no doubt be jumped by many wrestlers who are paid to aid Bischoff?
