One of my favourite PPVs of the year. First time since Wrestlemania that i found myself leaving my seat for the end of a title match! I thought the endings of both the WWE Championship and World Heavyweight matches were well constructed and executed well. Very unpredictable ending to the last match of the night!

this was surpringly one of the best pay per views of 2008 (we all know armageddon will be rubbish!). the scramble stipulation even made the ecw title match watch-able. the one match aside from the 3 scrambles was of course the non sanctioned match between michaels and jericho. Chris Jericho is easily the heel of the decade, and shawn michaels could probably still go for another 5 years. and putting these levels of charisma together for a solid 5-6 months and you've got the feud of the year. the smackdown scramble was far too predictable for my liking, as it was obvious mr hardy wasnt going to win the title on such a small scale (sorry to ruin armageddon, but its not likely!) although with edge out of the title picture and in hell at his point i wasnt concerned with this match. ahhhh the booking on raw is an absolute genius. just imagine the meeting;
'i know vince, ive got an amazing idea, lets get orton and priceless to beat up punk, send kingston for help but have him get battered and then give jericho the title, despite losing the match earlier in the evening'
as much as i love jericho, this booking was TERRIBLE! as soon as it happened a million different ideas crossed my mind as to how else he couldve won the title, and how awesome punk vs jericho would be. but ever since wrestlemania 24 when orton pinned cena in the main event you just knew that the internet was now void, and that pay per views were going to be forever unpredictable. that is the reason i love this event, not for the matches, but the new found unpredictability that makes usually dull and forgotten pay per views like unforgiven (and also the great american bash, which i thought was far more exceptional this year than any of the other poor attempts) into fantastic event that are well worth the fifteen pounds on sky box office and the mere ELEVEN pounds that silvervision are offering!

If you want a ppv full of unpredictablility, 3 of the most exciting world title matches you will see on one show and an awesome encounter with Jericho and Michaels this is definatley the dvd for you i would highly reccomend it!
