Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
So far, having seen nothing from Japan or any indies, my favourite match is HBK/Kennedy from RAW a couple weeks ago. Apparently I'm the only one who loved that match though.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Personally, I wouldn't go any higher than ***1/2 on the Rumble.
Way too much of a clusterfuck for my liking. The eliminations didn't feel well paced to me, there was no elims for like 15 minutes and then 3 in about 30 seconds.
I liked last year's Rumble alot more.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Rumble was a solid *** 1/2. Then Cena came and made it ****.

I agree for the most part. A few things took away from the match for me: The whole Hornswoggle BS and Chavo being a participant left me with a bad taste in my mouth. The John Cena shocker was however really, really awesome and it raised the overall score in my mind to *** 3/4.

When Chavo entered, it did make me laugh for a good while.
Hornswoggle was a complete waste of time in the Rumble.
Overall the Rumble was ***3/4 for me as well, the crowd really helped it as well because everyone (except Elijah Burke) got a good reaction which is cool to see plus Cena at the end was 1 of the best surprises WWE have done in a long time.

spot-on imo.
didn't touch last year's Rumble in terms of pure rumble match quality, but the ending did elevate it a lot

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Yeah Cena did help this years Rumble alot although the ending of last year's Rumble with Taker and HBK going head to head was amazing.
