How did you feel about the WWE championship match last night?

Did you hate the ending, like it, or were you expecting something like that to happen?

Yeah, the order of matches last night was really weird. After I saw the Title match was not the main event I knew some type of draw would happen.

It was decent, nothing spectacular, but certainly not bad either. I mean, if you take it for what it was, it was a fun match to watch. Not having commercial breaks helped it as well.
From a storyline perspective, it was fairly obvious who would win. There was no chance that Triple H was losing at all, let alone cleanly, so soon after returning to RAW. It was also really obvious that Randy Orton was walking out with the WWE Championship. I mean, they just put the belt back on him after the colossal mistake of putting it on Batista. Having Orton drop it so soon to Triple H wouldn't have made any sense (not that having Donald Trump on RAW made sense...).
What sort of bothered me was, why have such a huge match just a week after Orton won the title back? Anybody who know's anything about wrestling knows that there was zero chance Orton was losing the championship. It just seemed kind of pointless.
The match itself was good though. Both guys put on a good show and turned in a solid performance. I liked the leg angle with Triple H. He could have sold it better, but overall I liked how they tied it into the ending, where it made Triple H look like the winner even though he didn't win the match. It was a good way to keep the fued going. It's in danger of getting seriously overplayed, I've just seen Orton/Triple H too many times, but I have to say that it did a good job of making me look forward to this Sunday for their match at The Bash.
You're right though, the match order was really messed up. Why have the WWE Championship during the mid-card? I have to say though, it made for a nice change not having every second of RAW devoted to hyping Randy Orton. Here's hoping WWE recognized that.

With the match at The Bash still happening i was expecting a draw, what would be the point in someone winning to have another match in 6 days time? I liked it though it was well handled Triple H using the ladder to stand but falling over was a nice way to end it and the whole match made both stars look strong. Didn't see a point in the match just before The Bash but it was well handled.

Well knowing the WWE the title was not going to change hands on a Live RAW event. The match though was better than what was expected considering it wasn't a PPV. Check out my blog for full coverage reviews of all WWE events and happenings. http://wrestlingnewsinc.blogspot.com/

honestly i was excpecting that but i wasnt if that makes any sense cause randy boreton just won the title and the titles has changed hand so much its crazy i just expected him to keep it but then again hhh(triple douche) wins just about everything so i thought he was gonna pull out a win.

did i like it?no not realy i thought the match was pretty good i didnt like the way it ended i just thought it was stupid to have a last man standing title match not as the main event that realy made no sense and after that they had a diva's match ..A DIVAS MATCH! WTF? now i know that im not the smartest person in the world but isnt a main event title match supposed to be a main event and a divas match either the 1st or 3 ? and im saying this in the best way possible cause i know you like cena.but the main event match was a stupid waste of time and it was boring as hell big show is boring boring boring boring he's nothing but big slow and fat and shouldnt have been main event

I was expecting the match to end in a double count out because there was no way that they were going to have the title change hands on free TV when the pay per view is this Sunday.
