Well i JUST tuned in and i see matt hardy wins the ECW title via like 3 guys laying on top of henry and hardy happened to be there on the 3 count ha ,pretty ridiculous but new ECW Champ!

Actually Matt had gotten a pin earlier in the match to be the current champion when time ran out. It was confusing until they showed the replays.

The Jericho v HBK match was pretty brutal especially considering HBK's torn triceps. I was expecting it to more brutal and bloody but only so much could be done with HBK operating at less than 100%.

Randy was on hand, as well as a new member of the 3rd genereation stable. They laid out Kofi and Punk and Randy eliminated Punk from the Scramble match with a nasty soccer kick to the head.

The SD scramble match was pretty good although that ended in what should've been a Jeff Hardy win IMO. We'll see if they address this on SD.

TBS laid out UT as he tricked UT into thinking that he was helping him, when in fact he turned out to be Vickie's new bodyguard/weapon against the UT.

The main event - the RAW scramble match was good. A bloody and deeply bruised Jericho came out last as Punk's replacement. At the last second he stole a shocking win to become the new RAW Champion!

jericho the new champ??

yyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh

i swear to god if he is still wearing tights as world champ i'm gonna assassinate the story writers.

giving jericho the title opens up alot of storyline possibilities for everybody. smart move.

michaels obviously has plenty of reason to challenge for the title considering he beat him to pieces that same night. punk can run with the whole "you didn't actually beat me to take my title" thing. and obviously orton will find himself in the mix when healthy, he can go with the whole "punk wouldn't have missed the match without me beating him up"

definitely mixes things up in a good way. as for the rest of the PPV it seemed pretty good although i heard the undertaker/big show segment came across like garbage

Definately didnt expect Y2J to be a particpant after the unsactuary match and be World Champion but this is a smart move on the writer's part. Let's see where it goes from here...

It was Jericho's decision to don the tights to go with his character's change.

Yes, it opens up a lot of storylines as we saw last night. Orton has already mentioned his part in Jericho's win and next week he faces Punk in a cage. For now Batista is sidetracked with JBL and Kane with Rey. The current KotR is lurking though.

The UT/TBS segment wasn't bad, just slow and should've been kept for SD, not PPV.

why would jericho use tights , the suit wasin't enough for him?

He's going to wrestle in a suit?

Its a total character change by Jericho to upset the fans, seems like its worked
