my comments:
There were some great matches here, CM Punk, Edge, Jericho, Mysterio and even Cena impressed.
Fans loved it when Kelly Kelly appeared as guest referee the second night, lots of camera flashes there.
Regal seemed to be in a bitter mood, his matches seemed very hard and tough on his opponents.
Goldust, Charlie Haas and especially Santino deserve a nod for their comedy inserts. the trio were in good form indeed.
Big Show apearing the second nights was a big surpsie for all of us.
One donwside was that many fans seemed to think they would be seeing the likes of HHH etc, but as the draft has only taken place it's fair to say the WWE did right having the current roster on this tour.
The O2 was an interesting venue, the fans loved having the WWE back after so many years of an absence.
