When he starts attacking faces?  Not sure if the crowd turning on him 
would do anything these days.

I enjoyed one of the vignettes after the big crash when one of the 
firemen was asking someone ehat'd happened.  Hell, just show 'em the tape!

He's a little more energetic during his matches, when he used to look 
more like a "deliberate" wrestler.

I've said it before:  One of the WWE's weaknesses in the last several 
years is that EVERYONE has to be a solo star and has to be able to talk, 
even if they have a manager.

Henry's shoulderbreaker looked goofed up.

I still think a couple of weeks to build up Henry as a guy who might 
give G some trouble before their match would've been a good idea.

I wasn't thrilled with G's not carring that he spead Michaels by 
accident (something referred to this week).
