I support the MITB match to main event...if it had the quality to do so. Putting it as ME just because they would get an RVD cheap pop is lame booking. I will riot if Brock vs Punk is not the ME for SummerSlam. Sandow winning was gold, i marked for Rhodes when he was almost winning, but i marked even more when Sandow went for it. Gold. Ryback's match with Y2J was actually better than expected... but that was an asinine ending. Henry vs. Cena was dull....man, so dull....but after the ME that followed....i have no idea why it didn't main event the show. And i'm anti-Cena. Also...Axel interfering didn't made sense. He really wasn't needed there. The idea it gave was that Punk could only have won because of Axl... Wouldn't it be much easier to have Punk almost winning and then Heyman comes and screws him? No...instead we have: Axel interferes...leading to a Punk win...and than Heyman screws him. It was a subtle, as well as dramatic as the same time, turn that could work well in other scenarios, if well done, just not in today's WWE.</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> </p><p> From all reports I read, Punk lost... unless I completely mis-read what you said, which is likely.</p>

<p>SM82 was saying if punk HAD won, he wouldn't have been able to do it without Axel. At least thats the appearance the booking displayed according to him.</p><p> </p><p>

I mean I didn't take it that way, I was looking at it as furthering the Heyman/Punk storyline that obviously is building towards a big summerslam match. But to each their own.</p>

Yea I knew Cena wouldn't go on last. Philly doesn't give Cena much love at all. If you noticed that crowd was no very kid-centric at all. I mean there's kids there. But those cheers were grown men's cheers not kids cheers lol.

[PoisonedSuperman]

Justin Beiber is in town tonight, it was a hard decision but I stayed home to watch RAW.

 

Brad Maddox > Vickie

 

 

Dislike to Cena still having the title, I was hoping Henry would win if only just to have held every title. I wouldn't of minded the winner of MITB to cash in on him and beat him right after, hopefully he wins it soon.

[Tha Black Phenom]

Just going off the Cena/Henry match, i haven't seen the show, It's just disappointing that Cena won. At this point, is there anyone that can really challenge him for the title? He's unstoppable and after Ryback and Henry being that last of the monsters for him to fight.

 

If Cena does lose the belt, it's gonna be anti climatic, at least to me. If Ryback or Henry can't take him down, then what chance does anyone else have? Super Cena is the worst gimmick ever. I don't hate Cena, but if you can't make him human from time to time, then the matches get predictable, and with that you've lost any reason to watch them.

 

Good to see the Uso's get a push. The MITB matches sounded fun. Sandow winning was a surprise and i will hate on Orton all day everyday for like, you know, ever. So many other people deserve a chance to run with the ball and Blandy Orton gets to go for another title. Sad.

 

RAW will not be good tonight.

 

Anti-climatic? Yeah right. You'll be peeing your pants like everyone else when it happens.

 

I cant understand people being mad at Randy winning the case

 

It makes it that much easier for him to FINALLY turn heel and he needed a bump after being largely irrelevant since 2011. If anything Im glad that the prediction that Bryan would win and turn heel to feud with Cena like other babyfaces recently like Punk and Ryback didn't actually happen.

 

The worst part was having Henry tap out to Cena. He is so stale that every feud is a rehash of earlier feuds with minimal variance and I can't believe they ran with the "Can he lift Henry?" angle. Not even 12 months ago they did the same exact thing when he was feuding with Big Show (for the 10th time in as many years). It's just depressing to see so much progression within the company but Cena doing the same overcoming giants story like it's 2007 at the top of the card to remind everyone that the ens result wont change.

 

I can imagine why, there's a bunch of guys in the MITB match people wanted to win... pretty much everyone but Sheamus and maybe Punk.

 

Now Orton turning heel sounds like a good prospect. But there's two things about this... the fact that the idea of turning him heel has been running since last year. It's become almost tedious predicting it happening every time something happens or is about to happen to Orton. Also, the fact he won the WWE title MITB. I can't be the only one who isn't too enthused at seeing Orton and Cena face off again. But if Cena loses the title before then or they at least make a good angle out of these two, I won't be turned away by it.

 

Cena/Henry was dreadful, cannot believe they pulled that "can he lift Henry, ladies and gentlemen" crap again. If that's not enough, at the end when he locked the STF on Henry, he got up and dragged him with minimal effort to the middle of the ring like a freakin' cart. Psychology really isn't your strong suit, is it John?

 

Also, RVD, Cody and Bryan were on top form last night. I'm not really a Cody fan but they allowed him to shine and he did it well.

[The Final Countdown]

<p>I grew disinterested with WWE during the lackluster buildup to Mania this year, and had probably seen like 10 minutes total of Raw since the night after Mania. I caught most of the last hour tonight, and it was like I was watching a totally different product. I think I'm going to have to add it back to my DVR schedule.</p><p> </p><p>

Also, Bryan apparently became the most over guy in the world while I wasn't paying attention? <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/eek.png.0e09df00fa222c85760b9bc1700b5405.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Was tonight an aberration, or is that his normal reaction these days?</p>

And as I can see it is the normal DB reaction these days which why he will likely get a run with the belt soon.</p>

[Teh_Showtime]

<p>It's because the part timers dont allow the company to progress at all. the road to WM was the most boring part of the year easily and now I actually look forward to raw on a consistent basis.</p><p> </p><p>

Every raw since after extreme rules has been good or great except for maybe one filler episode 2 weeks before MITB.</p>

[milamber]

<p>Raw Review:</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Brad Maddox</strong> - Nailed all his segments.</p><p>

<strong>Orton vs Fandango</strong> - Decent match that picked up near the end. The vocal crowd helped.</p><p>

<strong>Del Rio vs Ziggler</strong> - Decent match. Crazy Scorned AJ strikes again. I'm a big Ziggler fan but I marked out for Big E attacking him.</p><p>

<strong>Wyatt Family</strong> - So long R-Truth. No Husky chants this time. And we got Wyatt on the mic! "Is that what you desire?"</p><p>

<strong>Sandow vs Christian</strong> - Decent match. Surprise result. Cody gets some revenge!</p><p>

<strong>Bella vs Naomi</strong> - Naomi is good and she actually got a reaction from the crowd.</p><p>

<strong>Heyman/Punk/Lesnar</strong> - Epic segment! Punk vs Lesnar Last Man Standing match at SummerSlam is on.</p><p>

<strong>RVD vs Y2J</strong> - Started slow but turned into a fantastic match! And it was so even it put both guys over.</p><p>

<strong>Cena's Choice</strong> - Yes! Yes! Yes!</p><p> </p><p>

Verdict: Great Raw. The crowd were hot. Maddox, Wyatt Family, Punk/Heyman/Lesnar, RVD vs Y2J and Cena choosing Bryan all awesome.</p><p> </p><p>

If the show was someone else instead of Brooklyn, the cheers and "YES"ing wouldn't have been quite so deafening, but there was no question that Bryan would have been the people's choice to face Cena at Summerslam.</p><p> </p><p> BTW, props to the Brooklyn crowd for loving Bray Wyatt enough not to chant Husky Harris at him. It's also cool to see the crowd act differently around them. Granted it was Brooklyn, so I knew that they weren't getting boo'd, but they weren't getting cheered either, at least not in the traditional way. It kind of feels like people are reacting to the Wyatt Family like they are watching a movie. The crowd pops for the beginning of the entrance and kind of sort of cheers/gasps at the Wyatt family's high spots like Bray kissing R-Truth's forehead before taking him out.</p><p> </p><p> Or I could be a huge Wyatt mark reading WAY too into this.</p>

[crownsy]

<p>I thought last night's raw was one of the best I've seen in the last few years.</p><p> </p><p>

Brad maddox is just the right amount of weasel mixed with charisma to be believable as a good GM. Not that i'm comparing the two, outside of the vibe I get from their characters, but he's kinda bischoff esq in his role. Interested to see how he does going forward. </p><p> </p><p>

Ziggler-Langston should be a good fued, I'm hoping they really give Big E some time with the mic, he's actually pretty good on it. I still hate that finisher though. "Ha! I splashed you on myself! take that fool!"</p><p> </p><p>

Wyatt's were great week two, and i'm glad to see them taking there time, letting bray talk and use his creepy charisma, no need to rush them to the main event, just keep them strong in the Mid/UMC while you establish them. Bray is so in touch with that gimmick, it will build itself.</p><p> </p><p>

Punk-Lesnar-Heyman segment was phenomenal, everyone played there role extremly well, and it did a great job of reestablishing lesnar as an unstoppable force, which was much needed after the triple H storyline, and punk as a bad ass for shaking off that beat down. </p><p> </p><p>

Jericho-RVD had me flashing back to 8 years ago ha, great performance from both men. Little surprised they put Christan over Sandow, but the Cody beat down afterwards was fine. Wonder if they have some fued in mind for Christan and needed that win. </p><p> </p><p>

And finally, i thought the last segment was great. I know some people on the net have complained that it seemed to much like audience pandering, and that they should have focused more on how bryan has earned this, but give Cena credit, he had that crowd frothing at the mouth by the time he picked bryan. Would they have gotten that same reaction and moment if Bryan had won the typical beat the clock challenge, ect? </p><p> </p><p>

Great raw, lets see if they can keep momentum up next week.</p>

[FINisher]

<p>RAW Main event. 'Nuff said. You won't be hearing me say this that often but this RAW was very good.</p><p> </p><p>

Ziggler vs. AJ works, Punk-Lesnar-Heyman will be awesome, Rhodes vs. Sandow will be interesting too.</p><p> </p><p>

If only someone would eliminate Cena from the picture.. Oh well. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/redface.png.900245280682ef18c5d82399a93c5827.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

The last few weeks he's been talking to team "Bricky" about Daniel not really being superstar quality, while HHH and Steph are definitely DB fans.

[Rickymex]

<p>Why would you spread leaks if you want the company to stop them? I've read this on other sites and this one of the most common responses in the comments. If he wants WWE to fire his friend then he should just tell WWE who it is. First off there hasn't been any major PPV upsets that I remember that could result in him getting a pick wrong.</p><p> </p><p>

Anyways do spoilers actually hurt PPV sales? If you know who's going to win you still need to watch in order to see how he wins or how good the match was plus a lot of times spoilers can actually bring in more viewers such as the Mick Foley WWE champion spoiler. If the next spoilers say Daniel Bryan wins the WWE championship then how many people would order the show just to see his victory.</p>

[Dawn]

What i noticed now is that Rotunda's mic skills are so much better now with the Bray Wyatt gimmick. Seriously, they sucked with the Husky Harris one. And my money wasn't on Rowan and Harper before the debut, but it looks like they can be solid workers too. The first feud for them should be huge.

 

And RAW was one of the best ones of the year. It was awesome, the Main Event could've been a classic if it was on Pay-Per-View and the crowd (and me, and i bet that nearly all of you) was crazy for D-Bryan, my money is on him for SummerSlam. And damn, at Money in the Bank i nearly cried when Rhodes was climbing the ladder (HUGE Rhodes fan here), but Sandow...well, he didn't save me from saying VERY bad words about the end of the match during the entire event

Does it matter? If you know that user posts spoilers, don't look at them if you don't want to be spoiled. If you don't know, than it's just a prediction like any other.
