Bragging Rights 2009

1. Miz defeated John Morrison by pinfall

This was a good match, but I was hoping for a little bit more. Both of these guys have a come a long way since this match.

Rating: 2.75 (out of 5)

2. Beth Phoenix, Natalya, Michelle McCool defeated Melina, Kelly Kelly, Gail Kim by pinfall

This was decent divas action, but still sloppy. I'll take this over most of the junk they give us though.

Rating: 1

3. Undertaker defeated CM Punk, Batista, and Rey Mysterio by pinfall

I think we all knew what was going to happen in this one, but it was still a very good match. All four guys worked well with one another and that's all you can ask for.

Rating: 3.5

4. Chris Jericho, R-Truth, Finlay, Hart Dynasty, Matt Hardy, Kane defeated Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Big Show, Cody Rhodes, Kofi Kingston, Mark Henry, Jack Swagger by pinfall

***Match Of The Night***

I really like the concept of this, but I hate that it is 7-on-7. Cut a few guys off the teams and have another couple of matches. Still, this was a lot of fun and an enjoyable inagural Bragging Rights match.

Rating: 3.5

5. John Cena defeated Randy Orton by submission to win the WWE Championship

This was a good effort by two guys that wouldn't be my top choices for an Iron Man match. This was definitely overbooked to help them out and there were some dull spots, but for the most part they held the attention of the audience for 60 minutes and in today's day in age, that's saying something.

Rating: 3.5

This was a good, quality show. It's missing that classic, but everything is worthwhile, which is something you can't say about a lot of shows. If you're a big Orton or Cena fan, there's a good chance you will like the main event a lot more than I did, and that would probably put this in the "great" category. Still, as is, this is worth a watch.
