Seemed to me that Matt was getting face heat just fine, so I didn't
foresee it until it actually happened.  And I didn't foresee Christian's
save, either, which irks me no end.

Hopping in bed with him *that* fast would be violently out of character
for Lita (which is not to say that the RAW writers won't have another
attack of the stupids).  Even after yesterday's move, she was still
just at the level of "yeah, let's chat over coffee".

It *seems* like a face turn for both Christian and Jericho; the major
thing they've been heelish about lately is getting rid of Austin, and
now that that's accomplished...

Has Christian ever been a face since since splitting from Edge?  Has
Jericho ever been a face since showing up in the E?

Why the heck are they turning Trish heel, and how might they accomplish
it from their current position?  (Having Jericho remain a heel would be
easy - just have him admit that he did conspire in Matt's turn after all.)
