On paper the card isn't to bad, not great but not too bad, I see four potential good/great matches which one of them a possible MOTY candidate maybe more than one, and even though it is on a preshow Sheamus/Shandow isn't too bad either.

Pretty easy card to predict the W/L, imo. Cena, Ziggler and Shield aren't loosing. Axel's push continues and would like to see AJ get the title. Hardest match to gauge is Punk v Jericho. Does Jericho cheat to win, perhaps w/ the help of Heyman? Really looking forward to the Chicago crowd and the reaction Punk gets.

ETA - Would like to see the Wyatt Family debut.

A Wyatt family debut promo would be amazing, but if they're supposed to be heels debuting in Chicago is not the greatest idea since they'll get cheered pretty heavily.

Something fishy will happen in the Punk match. I've got my money on seeds being planted for Punk Lesnar at SS.

Tag title match will be MOTY quality, but the finish will be wonky and lead to a heel turn for Orton. Ideally that will result in a #1 contender's match between Randy and DB with Bryan going over and getting a shot at Cena at SS. That'd cement the best double main event at SS in a long-ass time.

Could they have come up with a worse 3SOH match? Hopefully it won't get booed out of the building. I'm guessing they have one or two big spots planned to combat that possibility. Cena obviously retains and sends the fans home angry.

Some good matches. The 3 stages looks lame. Tables match and THEN an ambulance match? I also wish they'd stop putting legit performers on a pre-show. They can probably fit it in the PPV itself, since more often than not it ends too soon anyway. Overall, has great potential.

This is the one I'm most interested in seeing how it plays out. Some people don't think Punk will show at all.

Yeah, I have my doubts about Punk even showing up at all as well. Originally I thought he'd show up in street clothes then just walk away, in attempt to get the crowd to actually boo him. That would seem way too much like Style's TNA gimmick atm. So he either doesn't show all together or becomes face via Heyman screwing him to set up Punk v Lesnar.

Fairly solid card.

Orton heel turn please.

I think Big Show is great in this analysis role. He's a little hard to understand sometimes, but other than that, I bet we'll see him in a color role at some point in his career.

I'm really excited to see what happens with Punk. He's supposed to be in Boston tomorrow for game 3.

Same. I've said from day 1 that I don't think a match with Jericho will take place. What will? Not quite sure. But something's been up since that very first Heyman-Jericho segment.

I thought it was going to lead to a curtis axel thing, but he's already in a match. I truly have no idea.

Here we go!

I suppose one thing I could dig was Punk no-showing, then getting payback (?) on cena and ryback. Taking em out in their third stage and rendering the match a draw.
