Reviews/Thoughts:
Why is The Great Khali even wrestling right now? Personally, the 1/2* I gave that match was more attributed to the crowd reaction than anything else. If WWE was really a wrestling organization -- which they are really not anymore (they want to be an entertainment business) -- Khali would have either been gone a long time ago or not even signed in the first place.

Zack Ryder is not bad on mic skills, and he does have a look/gimmick to help him stand out from other wrestlers. But personally, instead of being stuck in midcard purgatory, couldn't they have just kept him paired with Curt Hawkins? Come on Vince, what do you have against tag teams anyway?

(NOTE: This post was updated on 4/15 to give more reviews and thoughts for this episode. Even the future PPV entries will use this format from now on.)
