Unforgiven was an intriguing event...had its moments....gave some talents a chance to perform on the main stage....and it was interesting to see how the 3 Scramble bouts could have their own unique identity.
The show was fun to be a part of because of all the above. On a scale of 1-10 I would give it a solid 7, which equates to value for the price of admission.
HHH is one of the established, legit Superstars on Smackdown, who has plenty of potential opponents on SD. HHH adds considerable credibility to the brand...More?

Another report from Killer Kowalski's service; Triple H mentioned
