It was passable, my expectations weren't too high, I WAS hoping that maybe some more background would've been done to setup the remaining(and recently made) matches. Yeah, right... WHY did Nidia, who is on Smackdown!, interfere in the bikini match, and try to nail Trish, who is on RAW? WHY was even more time wasted on The Big Slow's pathetic mic-time? and WHY did HHH have to get the pin? and WHY in the way that we've seen him do way too many times?
Was planning on watching the whole show, but after Big Slug came on the TV set I realized the SD match had occurred, and rather than listen to him babble and a Trip match, I could take the advice of WBTD and read a book.
I want you to know, I agree with everything I've just said.
I knew nothing important would happen, so the commentary was even more meaningless than usual, so I watched the show while I listened to the Anthology CD on headphones. Boy, the bikini contest sure seemed weird with the Bushwhackers music playing.
I also thought the main event was pretty good and unusually moving, but that could just be because I had reached "Tell Me A Lie" by that point.

I didn't watch it... I still don't understand why have a girl that you are pushing in a hardcore match. And the last hype before her PPV match is a freakin bikini contest against boring Torrie Wilson. *blah*. With a Nidia run in from all people. Talk about pointless.

I honestly kind of enjoyed the show, but I would have liked it a lot better if it had been even MORE pointless... I mean, a special should not necessarily fit into the whole scheme of the angles... why not just do a bunch of funky stuff to test and see what the audience might like somewhere down the line?
cranlsn was right by God- The Lions were the Packers' B$#CH!!!!! "Pool-Boy"
--On last night's show, in some fancy editing, the HHH, Jericho, Booker and Kane ring entrances were actually the ring entrances from their tag match earlier in the night on Raw spliced in since they were actually already in the rnig after their tag match when the ten-man was taped. (thanks to Matt Cail)
Actually Y2J's entrance was cut from Super Tuesday.
They really need to do this before every PPV. Dude at work that knows I'm into Wrestling asked me if I was going to get the PPV this Sunday, and mentioned that he saw Super Tuesday and it got them interested.
I still think they should do specials like this before every PPV in some sort of SportsCenter style though.
The Walls of Jericho could just be that it's hard for Jericho to keep Kane at any kind of angle when he's in the move. Kane's a big guy weight-wise and height-wise, and if Jericho's winded I'd say that it's not Kane's fault.
As for the Pedigree, maybe Kane's worried about what that mask would do to his nose/cheekbone if he had Hunter's weight drop right on the back of his head and so cringes a bit? Just a guess.
There's a similar move in Mexico called the motocicleta (the hand grabs are slightly different) which I originally thought was it, but I saw someone point out that Bull Nakano had used that hold in Japan. That's much more likely to be it.
