Pretty poor Raw in my opinion.

Good points

Kane was built up as a threat even though we are pretty sure he won't win.

The Shield were brilliant on the mic. Favourite part of the night for me.

Barrett vs Sheamus was a very good match. Glad Barrett went over clean, he is finally starting to get over. That's 2 matches in a row Sheamus has lost clean!

Bad points.

The rest of the show was very mediocre.

Wyatt, for the first time, bored me on the mic.

Heyman also bored me on the mic.

Cesaro and RVD did not click at all for me. Cesaro's new music does not suit him.

Apparently Emma is good in the ring yet they are wasting her as a partner for Santino!

Will Bray Wyatt ever pin John Cena? He couldn't even beat him in a 3 on 1 handicap match. Pathetic.

Agree with pretty much all of this apart from The Shield part. Thought Rollins went on a bit too long. Actually thought Ryback did a good job on commentary. He put over both teams, stated Rybaxel's case for a shot at the tag titles, and came across as a jackass. Classic heeling.

One thing i kept seeing was a banner on the balcony reading " A Legend Is Coming".
I wonder if that was an advertisment for something American or a subtile hint at a possible Sting return?

Just finished watching, wasn't very impressed.

It was good that the WWE didn't make DB do anything on the mic, I thought they did a pretty good job promoting The Shield, so glad they didn't go with the break up, think they have another 6 months in them yet.

To be fair to the WWE I fully expected last nights RAW to be Daniel Bryan heavy so with what happened to his old man it was always going to be a bit desperate

Yeah wasn't a great Raw.

Good Points

Barrett vs Sheamus great Match.

Michael Cole commentating when Kane was attacking Bryan. 

The Shield Promo

Apart from that pretty poor. Also seems there going down the Cody Rhodes heel turn, which i feel is the wrong idea.

Agree with all that.

It was just one of those Raw's that did its job as a story vehicle but not much else.

Saying that, very impressed with their use of Barrett in the ring. Also thought it was good that RVD was made to distance himself from Heyman. They aren't presented as friends, but people would list RVD as a Heyman guy so its good to see him just make a comment. RVD to lose to Barrett, Barrett wins the IC. Unfortunately for Big E, WWE have done that thing they do with the IC Title and made it a boring reign. I think the title will be more important now so a new champ may kickstart some impetus.

Another show that highlighted how bad King is. King out Maddox in!

"While everyone is running around getting married, we're training hard to get better and win the WWE Tag Team Championships," - Ryback delivers some good lines, I do hope he gets another chance to be built up as a solo star.

Post by Ché Guerrero Tue 22 Apr 2014, 7:14 pm

Regarding the shield promo, Reigns and Ambrose were excellent. Ambrose always comes off slightly unhinged but still making sense (a style of promo that shows he can go far as a heel) and Reigns comes off like badass without having to force it.

Rollins though....... Im sorry he is great worker in the ring (the best of the group) but i have never heard him do a good promo. His voice is bad and he always seem to make one point too many. As well as repeating phrases he thinks are cool but are actually cringeworthy. You are always painfully aware he is acting unlike the other two.

Is it just me that thinks it's weird the Rusev keeps coming out in aid of The Authority/Evolution?

He's built up as a brute and just seems like the kind of guy that would be a loner who only listens to Lana, yet he's coming out as part of a team that also includes 3MB and Fandango.

^was thinking the same thing. I thought they'd protect him for a bit and keep him outta harms way. The Shield got the upper hand on him briefly last week.

The rest of RAW was just ok. Kane was made to look dominant (this is what they should have done with Lesnar pre mania). He now looks a threat to Bryan.

Barrett and Sheamus had an excellent match. The crowd were really into it and they both came out of it really well. Was just thinking what, if any, plans do they have for Sheamus? He's being used almost like he's in the twilight of his career yet he's still a relative new star.

Cesaro and RVD was ok. Cesaro carries himself really awkwardly and them thigh bands look daft. Is there any practical reason for them? At least he has music now although it's a bit rubbish. And is he a heel or a face?

Which leads me on to Wyatt/Cena. No point complaining about Cena as it's been done a million times over but what are they upto with Bray? Is he a face now? Getting the crowd to chant with him? Very odd from an otherwise very heel gimmick. Wyatt's really should have picked up the win here but anyway.

As has been said, Ryback was excellent on commentary. Put everyone over including his own team. Usos and Rhodes had a decent match which seems to be leading to the eventual Rhodes split and hopefully a push for Cody.

Evolution were dull as dishwater until The Shield came out. Ambrose and Rollins were great on the mic. Reigns was ok. Did the job for building the PPV.

Just been announced that Bryan vs Kane will be an extreme rules match. Expect plenty of chair shots to the back and much use of a kendo stick!!!!!!!

The sheamus and barrett match was brilliant.

Just watched it now. The crowd were really into it


Still not sold on kane. All hes done is put a mask on and we're expected to believe this is a different person to who was basically jobbed out at Mania and now gets a title shot the month after

that is meant to be the gimmick behind the mask though isnt it? as an extra source of demonic strength. They need to bring up the history between the two and turn it into the break up of Team Hell No that didnt properly happen

Rusev is just being placed as "standard heel reaction". Just because he's been a monster, doesnt mean he's adverse to it. He gets told what to do by (the gorgeous) Lana, and does heelish things all the time. Makes sense he'd be out there.
