CM Punk
vs. Daniel Bryan vs. Kane
It's
always good to kick off a show with a match, and they picked a good
match to start off the show with as well.
This was
a fun little Triple Threat match which saw AJ skip around once more,
and Daniel Bryan get the victory over his nemesis CM Punk.
The
storyline has been rough in patches, but overall it's been an
enjoyable one. At this stage now we have Kane out of the picture and
AJ still giving no indication of who she's going to side with at the
end of all this (if she does at all).
This
feud deserves a good send off, so I just hope it gets one.
Brodus
Clay vs. Big Show
I'm not
a big fan of Brodus, and I don't think this feud with Big Show will
be any good wrestling wise, but it's still good to see him in an
actual feud nonetheless.
The
match wasn't any good, but did tell a pretty good story of how the
veteran still has the upper hand over the Funkasaurus. If this lasts
until SummerSlam, it would be great to see Brodus finally get the
victory over the giant. If done right, they could make that victory
look like a huge achievement for him.
John
Cena and Chris Jericho
While
both men can cut good promos of course, this one just didn’t do it
for me. John delivered the funnies which made a lot of the fans in
attendance laugh, but for me, it was just another comedic promo I
didn't care about.
Even
Jericho's appearance didn't lighten up this segment. The two bickered
back and forth but little was said that was in any way entertaining.
Of course, they got the message of the Money in the Bank Ladder match
across, but still, it was all a bit of a 'meh' segment.
Oh, and
apparently Cena infuriated the WWE Universe when he said that most of
the viewers are nine years old. Come on though, was it really that
bad. What he said clearly just came off the top of his head, and in
the end was just a little joke about how many youngsters watch the
show. You'd swear he he made a racially homophobic comment with the
way people have responded. Seriously, people get on Cena's back for
such little things at times.
Why
don't they just jump their attention to Randy Orton instead? I mean,
he's the guy that supposedly smoked weed a while back. That's right,
WEED! WHAT TOTAL INSANITY! GO GET HIM!
Divas
Swimsuit Competition.
Ah would
you look at them all in their pretty little outfits, they all look
lovely. Layla's swimsuit in particular was very nice as it really
showed off her lovely bottom. But of course, they ALL have lovelybottoms.
Chris
Jericho vs. John Cena
Just
when you think it's over, BAM! In comes Big Show to attack John Cena.
I get the whole point of Cena entering the Money in the Bank to
prevent Big Show from winning it, but this feud doesn't need to get
as much attention as it was getting a few weeks ago. I know they only
had one segment together but who'd wonder if they'll go back to their
usual stuff next week and suffocate the whole show with their faces.
I
thought the ending to the feud was fine at No Way Out, there's really
no need to continue this thing. Yes, Big Show needs to continue his
reign of destruction but does it need to be up to Cena to stop
something like this happening again?
While
Raw showed some good signs of moving forward, this ending almost
brings us back to square one. I'll try to remain optimistic that the
Money in the Bank Ladder match will be the main attention here (as
well as the WWE title of course) and not just Big Show and John
Cena... but, as history shows, that never seems to be the case when
Cena is involved.
Stray
Observations:
- I wish Jerry Lawler would stop calling Bryan “goat face”. That thing does not need to catch on.
- “I will give Chavo a rematch on the 2000th episode.” I think Bob Barker has more of a chance of making it to the 2000th episode than Chavo does in appearing for the WWE again.
- “I am one of the top superstars on Raw!” Heath Slater, convincing the world of his ability as usual.
- So, Charlie Sheen will be the FIRST EVER Celebrity Social Media Ambassador. History in the making.
- Anyone else notice the Brazil flag in that Fozzy clip? Everyone? OK then.
