Looking back, I don't think it was a "bad" PPV. I think I was kind of soured when I accidentally saw the betting odds stating Orton was to win, ruined the surprise a bit. But overall it was a decent, if slightly forgettable PPV. Shield had yet another good match. The Smackdown MitB was my highlight. It had some really cool spots, like Cesaro's uppercut to Barrett, Ambrose's ladder platform and the somersault powerbomb from Fandango. Sandow winning the briefcase put a huge smile on my face and hopefully Cody gets a good face run out of this, he came out of this looking like a million bucks. The Miz lost, which is a positive by default, and Axel came out of it looking pretty good. AJ/Kaitlyn wasn't as good as their Payback match but it was an alright match nonetheless, possibly wrapping up that feud(?).
Ryback winning with a roll-up was a bit weird, how far he's fallen. I have no problem with Del Rio/Ziggler, I'd rather that Ziggy Lee be written to break up like this rather than their relationship either just disappearing or Ziggler going babyface with a Heel champ girlfriend, plus that means Ziggler can win the belt at Summerslam, one of the Big 4 (hopefully). I can't say I'm disappointed with Cena/Henry because from the beginning, we knew the end, though it doesn't make it suck any less.
The RAW MitB wasn't as memorable as the Smackdown MitB but it had some interesting points. Heyman turning on Punk surely make Punk/Bork a certainty. I don't like Sheamus but he put some real good work into this match, so props to him for that. Orton winning is interesting because it could hopefully lead to a heel turn, something he's sorely needed for quite a while. However, I'm not sure he can fully turn heel by cashing in on Cena. If he does cash in and go heel, I can only hope that this means Bryan winning the Royal Rumble and finally winning the WWE title at Wrestlemania (which is a hell of a lot more likely than him ever beating Cena as a face). Though I'll admit that's wildly optimistic of me.
