Tonight the WWE presents the “Great American Bash” a 7-match card with the main event being a WWE Title match with Edge vs WWE Champ Triple H. The card also will have C.M. Punk’s biggest WWE match to date, a World Heavyweight Title match with him as champ defending vs Batista. Many feel that Punk’s title run will be short, while I personally would like to see another few months of him with the strap to see what he can do.
The rest of the card is ho-hum to say the least. Shawn Michales vs Chris Jericho will be good, as it usually is, the 4-way Tag match should be okay as long as they don’t let too much comedy with Finlay and Hornswoggle get involved. The Divas title match could actually be a bit of a shocker as it should be pretty good with two good ladie wrestlers. The ECW match with Mark Henry (c) vs Tommy Dreamer will probably be mostly a squash with Henry walking away with an easy win.
The NY Brawl with John Cena vs JBL should have a bunch of big bumps, and it should wrap up this feud. All in all, an okay card, I don’t see Edge winning the strap, and my concern is that coming out of Friday nights ending of SmackDown you’ll see Vickie get involved and cost Edge the win. Bottom line is let these two wrestle and don’t let too much outside stuff get involved, but it probably will.
John and I will have the Let’s Talk Wrestling Great American Bash Post Match show tonight after the PPV, and we’ll be on the site all night with the ShoutBox! in full effect for your thoughts and comments.
