Extreme Expose woke the crowd up. At that point we had one ECW match in 40 minutes. It was a lot of video wall watching.
Thorn vs. Mahoney was horrible. Nobody knew them.
Orton and Dreamer's match was so rushed. Nobody believed Dreamer could win, so nobody cared. Orton did get a nice pop for the RKO.
After the show there was a Batista/Benoit vs. Edge/MVP match, but we left to beat the traffic. I'll just assume Batista pinned MVP with a Batista Bomb.
That's really it. The top heels like Edge and MVP got a lot of respect from the people as they deserved.
Overall it was just an average show. At over 3 hours it's a long show, especially with all the commercial breaks. That's why the crowd was dead for a lot of the ECW stuff. It was typical of a go home show before the PPV. Most were disappointed that Smackdown lacked a main event match, but everybody that wrestled worked hard and some of the matches were okay.
