Post Survivor Series thoughts...

I know I didn't watch it live, but I do have some stuff to say.

1. I am stunned Jeff Hardy got the final pinfall on Umaga during the traditional match. Is it possibly the winds of change? Who knows.

2. Happy the ECW title stayed with Punk, but damn, can ECW get a little respect and not be the opening match for every pay per view?

3. What's the deal with the Khali match? Is Finlay a face now? Before, during the one day DX reunion, I thought they were turning Khali face. Is WWE suffering from TNA disease of turning and returning talent face and heel on a dime?

By the way, I KNOW Finlay is not a face, but with what happened tonight, it's debatable, at least.

4. How many times are they gonna pull Matt Hardy out of PPVs? It's the second one in less than a month. Once, I can accept. Twice, I don't think is a coincidence. Maybe I'm just being dumb, and they're continuing the slow burn to Matt vs. MVP for the US Belt. I don't know. (Isn't there a law saying MVP has to defend that belt within a certain amount of time, because I think it's been a dog's age since he's defended it on a PPV).

5. Appears Mickie James is next for a run at Beth Phoenix. Good. It should be fun to watch. I gotta admit, I would take a Mick Kick to the head if I got the kiss goodnight from her first..

6. Who is gonna take the belts off Cade & Murdoch? Don't get me wrong, I like an established team as the champs, but one week, they get destroyed by Batista and the Taker, and this week, they're victorious in a title defense. Hello, hypocritical a little? Did that even make sense?

7. It was pretty much a foregone conclusion that Orton would retain. Michaels' schedule is not a WWE championship schedule. Sad. But true. Orton's next title contender should be interesting, I hope. Or, it could be really pathetic.

8. Kane's first out in the traditional match? WHO HAS HE PISSED OFF to be treated so lousy?

9. Sounds like Batista and Taker in Hell in a Cell was brutal. I give Taker credit for taking this type of pounding. I really do.

10. I don't like the finish of the Hell in a Cell match. Obviously, it sets up Edge vs. Taker, but we should have seen a clean finish for Batista vs. Taker first. Their matches deserved a clean cut ending, and not the way it was portrayed in Miami tonight.

Then have Edge come out. Having Edge come out and help Batista, albeit adding "mystery", as WWE.com is already laying that groundwork, but it is predictable at best, because there's no way in hell Edge is turning face, and it's just a ploy to get at Taker to begin the slow burn to Wrestlemania.

Just some stuff from my head to my fingers to have you guys ponder. What's your thoughts? Who saw the PPV? Give me a review in an email, and I'll publish it here.
