Talk about interesting timing. After Brock Lesnar's pulverizing of Frank Mir at UFC 100 drew 1.6M buys (topping WWE's best by about 400,000), WWE decides to run a pay-per-view based upon submissions. As it were, three submission matches were booked for what turned out to be the lone Breaking Point in company history. Perhaps it was because the event took place in Montreal that inspired WWE to re-run the hackneyed 'screwjob' finish in CM Punk's victory over The Undertaker to close out the night. That, coupled with John Cena making Randy Orton submit after surviving a handcuffed beating, made for a pretty standard night of WWE sameness. For a concept show, nothing felt particularly different from the norm.
