I haven't yet watched all of my Smackdown! recording, but I saw the beginning, and the Tough Enough bit.

I have to say that these guys must have had some training already to take bumps. There's no way they'd have the Big Show bodyslam a group of untrained guys and risk injuring them their first night out!

I just watched RAW, and much as I hate to say it, thank Ghod for the end storyline bit; it saved a tedious match.

I remember when it could be said that if you put Ric Flair in the ring with a broom, he'd pull out a 5-star match. Nowadays... let's face it, that was about 15 years ago. Nowadays, a match with Flair is almost as tedious as one with Hulk Hogan. He does exactly the same spots; all that's different are the moves of his opponent, and how they make his usual shtick pull together.

I was scratching my head in the opening Evolution promo though: when he said he was the only legend in the ring... I thought he dubbed HHH one a few weeks back?

Shelton Benjamin and Chris Jericho put on a fantastic match. What was a real headshaker though was the fact that it was the only match in that hour. HBK's speech about "doing this all for the fans" was strange; I don't think the fans want less wrestling and more promos and stories. With the deep roster on the RAW brand, that so few got actual ring time was extremely sad.
