The match was going really top notch and then ended out of nowhere - had the potential to be a killer bloodbath, still was to a degree, but the lack of another 5-10 minutes here really hurt it. It may be possible we see another match with these guys, as it didnt really blow off the feud but furthered it with Foley quitting just to save Melina.

 

Although I can't imagine what else they could have done in an extra 5-10 minutes, damn.

This new thing of bringing face challengers to the ring second really gets under my skin for some reason.

Now time for the match that theoretically people should care about (given the story from the SS shoot with these guys) but I dont think many do. Buildup for this one was rushed and minimal......hoping they give this feud more legs by a Booker screwjob win here. Batista needs the belt back at some point, but he needs to chase it much longer than 2-3 weeks.

I have a feeling that alot of you guys aren't getting the idea behind the finish to the I Quit match but it was perfectly done.

 

Explain.

 

Foley has throughly put over his devotion(if not, love) for Melina for months. Before the Flair angle even started. Put over how much he cares for her as a friend and hasn't shied from showing a emotional connection to her.

 

The match was brutal as expected and Foley took it like a pill and we know he could have taken more.

 

Re-watch the pre-match promo with Foley and Melina and they well established that Melina cares honestly for Mick as well.

 

Foley with almost his last breath urges Flair to stop and gives away his pride to save the girl who tried to save him.

 

If you still can't realize why it was great, then you never really paid attention to Foley in the last 5 months.

I quit to save Melina? That's good.
