4.0 out of 5 stars
Greatest American Bash, 1 Jan 2007
Tag Team Championship
Paul London and Brian Kendrick vs The Pitbulls (Kid Kash and Jamie Noble)
This match was fast paced and back and forth (with a really dropkick from jamie noble to paul london hitty out of the ring)4.5/5
Matt Hardy vs Gregory Helms
Solid matchup, a shame the cruiserweight CHampionship wasent on the line. 3.5/5
United States Championship
Finley vs William Regal
This match was originally meant to be a triple threat involving bobby lashley but he was out due to liver problems. The match was quite brutal and had a fair bit of technical wrestling. 3.5/5
Punjabi Prison Match
Undertaker vs Big Show
Once again another wrestler in the Great Khali was removed from this match due to liver problems and replaced with the big show. It was a cool variation on a cage and there where some good moves by both guys. Although it was a poor ending in my opinion. 4/5
Batista vs Mr Kennedy
A little bit of a squash match with kennedy only getting a few moves in. Kennedyt replaced mark henry agter henry hut his leg at staruday nights main event. Overall an ok match. 2.5/5
Fatal 4 Way Bra and Panties
Ashley vs Jillian vs Kristal vs Michelle
As far as Diva matches go this wasent bad so for a divas match it gets 3.5/5
World Heavyweight Championship
Rey Mysterio vs King Booker
I really enjoyed this match as it was faced paced and both have quite distince styyles that i think worked well together. A slightyly predictable ending but definatly the best match of the nigh. 4.5/5
Overall i give this event 4/5 and i think it could have been 5/5 if the inguries had not takedn place. This was certainly better than the two previous bashes.

pure crap!!!!!!!, 22 Nov 2006
it seems that the wwe really hates the Great American Bash as it has never put on a good one. This years was worse than last year the thing that really made it stink was that 2 superstars dropped out at the last second the great kali and bobby lasley the only reason i wathed the shambles of a ppv was to what the punjabi prison match was then kali drops out and big show replaces him.the only matchs worth chrcking out are matt hardy vs gregory helms; finley vs william regal some morons chanted boring during this match and maybe booker t vs rey mysterio title match. to sum up very bad. ps if you want an alternative to wwe ceack out tna total non stop action wrestling on sky channal 427 at 8pm on saturday nights now with kurt angle

Great American Bash 06, 15 Dec 2006
WWE got the formula right this year. The past two GAB's were tripe, then the worst happened - 4 (that's right), 4 wrestlers had to be taken off of the show just from as little as 2 weeks to 3 days before the show due to illness - it mucked up the ENTIRE PPV. Lashley, Crazy and Khali had weird Liver Enzymes or something, and Mark Henry, being the blob that he is, basically mucks up his leg big time. Anyway, my rundown of the card:
WWE Tag Team Championship:
London and Kendrick vs Pitbulls - 7.5/10
This was an awesome way to start the PPV and it was fast paced and IMO Kendrick and London's best match to date
WWE US Championship:
Original Plan ~ Lashley vs Regal vs Finlay
New Plan ~ Regal vs Finlay - 6.5/10
I would love to have a Regal and Finlay sort of "run" but, i know I can't blame the crowd for chanting stuff, and "boring" throughout the entire match because they were visibly peeved that Lashley was taken out, but it literally ruined the entire match, and it dosen't help that Finlay and Regal were both heels which dosen't always work 1 on 1, but altogether a rough and technical match which I personally enjoyed. I would've muted the TV but I like JBL's commentary.
WWE Cruiserweight Championship:
Original Plan ~ Gregory Helms vs Super Crazy
New Plan ~ (Non-Title) Gregory Helms vs Matt Hardy - 5/10
I don't care for these two wrestling. Greg is the man, but I've literally seen this 1000 times since then.
Punjabi Prison Match:
Original Plan ~ The Undertaker vs The Great Khali
New Plan ~ The Undertaker vs The Big Show - 3/10
Not a pretty match, and a unique idea which dosent work. There would've been major heat in the match with Khali, but it would've been worse because he can't wrestle, unlike Big Show, since he can (kinda)
Fatal 4 Way Bra and Panties Match:
Diva vs Diva vs Diva vs Diva - N/A
Meh, bra and panties, I got what I expected
Original Plan ~ Batista vs Mark Henry
New Plan ~ Batista vs Mr Kennedy
I seriously didn't care about this match. It would've been way better with Henry, but Kennedy and Dave have zero heat. It's just an average match, with a lot of blood
World Heavyweight Championship:
Rey Mysterio vs King Booker - 8/10
Good match, with a naff ending. ALL HAIL!
Overall, it was going to be better, but at least they (WWE) care about their athletes a little bit. It won't be bought much, but I say it's worth it for a sort of decent event.
