Machismo Fan

Accidentally gave the show a five instead of a seven. Solid show all round, Angle/Storm was killed by the crowd and the finish killed the main event but otherwise nearly every other match met or exceeded expectations.

Furious-Red

Yea really enjoyed the ppv bar the tag match and fell asleep during RVD/Gunner match and woke up half way through the Knockouts match.

Could we be seeing a heel turn by Mickie?

Maybe but there wouldn't be many options to feud with, only really Velvet Sky. Looks like ODB is turning babyface though, the only other babyfaced knockouts are Tara and Brooke but they're a tag-team.
