The girls in the back behind King sh*t bricks when Kane's fireworks blasted out.

Someone died onRaw

That was one of the gayest endings ever.

Oh and RIP to Lil Lazy.

Just for clarification. Cena moved out of the way. JBL was staring at the car cuz Cena wasn't there.

Also, my guess is that the bag Kane was holding contained his old mask.

And I smell CM Punk making a heel turn in the near future (from what I hear, he can be an excellent heel, up there with Kurt Angle and Edge).

He was an awesome heel on the independent circuit. He would still use his "Straight Edge" gimmick but he'd say since he was straight edge he was better then everybody else. He also had a lot more freedom saying what he wanted though and thats what made it so great. I doubt he'll truely be as great as he was back then for the WWE though.

I think Kane's old mask is in that sack too so that would be awesome if he went back to his old look.

Evan Bourne(Matt Sydal) is incredible. The new reason to watch ECW, other than the Guru of Greatness John Morrison of course.

Evan Bourne does the shooting star press better than Billy Kidman ever did.

He defies the odds, cuz he defies gravity

Sad thing is the WWE is profiting even more now than they did during the heyday of the attitude era so I don't see much changing.

They're playing it safe and even though the RAW/SD tapings aren't drawing the sellouts they did weekly during back a decade ago and the ratings are what, 2 and even sometimes 3 points lower than the peak levels of the attitude era, they're making more money I believe.

I'd bet a lot of that has to do with their international presence. For example, since Khali had his title reign the WWE's popularity in India has skyrocketed.

That was one of the main reasons I stopped watching the WWE. That dude annoyed the hell out of me. All of his matches are the same. He gets his asked kicked the whole match. He reverses something, does his 3 moves (fu, 5 knuckle shuffle, and a shoulder tackle).
