Rey Mysterio versus Kane is up next. This match added nothing to the night. This feud has been so convoluted from the beginning that it's just not entertaining to watch. With the WWE throwing in the stipulation that Rey has to remove his mask if he loses but not heavily promote, it makes the match, and Rey Mysterio, look second rate.
The match had some good counters from Rey but it was just like all of the matches that these have been in before. Mysterio continuously attacks Kane until he gets a power move in. Kane beats on Rey for a short while before Rey counters and takes control. Continue this pattern until the end of the match.
The ending was actually well thought out. Mysterio goes for a dive off the top while Kane is on the floor. Kane hits Mysterio with a chair and gets disqualified. It was a good way of making Kane look strong and keeping Mysterio's mask on him. The only thing I didn't like was that fact that Kane left right after that. He should have continued to beat on him if really doesn't like as much as he claims.
We get a strange backstage segment with MVP going to Vickie Guerrero's office trying to figure out why he doesn't have a match. The Big Show tells him to leave and MVP finds his way to the ring.
MVP cuts a promo stating that he's the best thing to happen to sports entertainment and should have a match. This prompts Randy Orton to come out. Orton is really starting to wear out his welcome and he's not even cleared to be in the ring yet. I can only imagine how much he's going to be talking when he finally gets back.
Again, this is a pay-per-view. People have already paid their money to see this and there shouldn't be any promos during these three hours.
Priceless and Manu eventually come down to the ring and begin to talk smack to both Orton and MVP. The fans begin a very loud boring chant but I know creative wasn't listening to them.
Orton says that Priceless still hasn't done anything to prove their worth. This story is loosing steam and Priceless keeps looking bad. They never get the upper hand and they keep trying to get Orton's approval. I don't know how many people can continue to care about this when the story has been the same for weeks now.
MVP tries to tell Priceless that they're all right in his book but they say that they want to have nothing to do with him. This makes MVP walk out as C.M. Punk and Kofi Kingston come out. This segment is just ridiculous now. There is no reason for this to be happening on a pay-per-view.
Punk convinces MVP to attack Priceless as the odds are even now. The three charge the ring only to have Punk and Kofi bail out on MVP so he gets attacked. Then, Punk and Kofi decide to get in the ring and clear it out.
This made absolutely no sense. There was no reason to have Punk trick MVP to get beat up if he was going to come in the ring to make the save. It really doesn't seem like creative likes MVP. He hasn't done anything since loosing the U.S. Title and he's quite possibly the best wrestler on Smackdown. He seems to be a waste of talent right now.
