This week in WWE

Drew McIntyre vs Evan Bourne, Superstars 5/19

This was on the short side, but still had plenty of highlights. Bourne's armdrags at the start were super-slick, and his apron bump was nuts (reminded me of London's batshit insanity bump in the '05 Rumble). The spot with Drew taking a bump on the stairs was cool, as were Bourne's dive and the set-up to the finish, but my favouirte spot was the epic stalling superplex.

Christian vs Sheamus, Smackdown 5/20

This was good. Kind of what you expect. Christian did some neat stuff like sliding under Sheamus on the apron to trip him, and took a couple nasty bumps as standard. Sheamus hasn't stopped being a total bruiser either. Great finish.

Daniel Bryan vs Chavo Guerrero, Smackdown 5/20

Solid few minutes, though the time limit obviously detracted a lot. Would like to see them in a match where the focus wasn't on beating a time limit, though the finish was atleast well done.

Randy Orton vs Mark Henry, Smackdown 5/20

Henry was great in this, really laying a beating on Orton. Liked his trash talking too. Orton was fine, but what the fuck was with that reaction to the RKO?
