This match was amazing. I was thoroughly impressed with every aspect. And it was nice to just sit back and watch as a wrestling fan.
There was a believable chance that JoMo could've won, and that was probably the most vested part. Against Sheamus, the freaking WWE champ, John Morrison looked like a main eventer. He had intensity, hunger, drive, and charisma. While most of the match could be labeled as spots (his spinny flippy do off the stage, the Flying Chuck Kick from the stage, and the cross body off the set,) it was exciting, fast paced, and MEMORABLE. Due to the ending of the match, three things were accomplished. Sheamus looked strong and won in heel fashion. John Morrison showed how much he wanted a main event spot. And Chris Jericho again proved that he is the best in the world at what he does.
This helped set up Jericho getting back in the title picture, and while I don't think he will win the belt, I see a feud with him and John Morrison similar to the Kofi/Orton feud from last year. It also planted the seeds of a John Morrison push. With a win over Jericho the week before and an impressive showing against Sheamus Monday, it looks like they are going to pull the trigger on JoMo. Finally, as IC25 said in his editorial, it showed us that the WWE is investing proper time in its future. This match could be the starting point from which JoMo and Sheamus base their feud for the next five years. History people, it's what writes invested storylines.
