Just got done with Raw...
I've said it before, but please help me out here...why do you guys like Sasha again? She's AJ Lee with a bad dye job and half the charisma. God, that segment was awful...Charlotte and Jericho had a couple decent zingers but Enzo and Sasha were just God awful. I was still checked out from that segment and only half watched the match.
Braun vs Jobber week 2...you know...if they want me to take this seriously...maybe the announcers shouldn't treat it like a joke and laugh at the jobbers expense the whole time...kind of kils the whole dangerous monster heel vibe.
Decent promo from Henry...it'll probably go nowhere, but whatever.
More Pokemon Go...I'm with Graves...I Hope they chase a pokemon off a cliff.
Finn vs Rollins promo was good...I wish Seth was less goofy and Finn less wooden, but it wasn't bad.
I was really hoping for a surprise Kurt Angle return when Rusev was bashing the Olympics...but instead we get Roman. I have to be fair...him not talking and blocking Rusev from leaving was good. That' how he should have been acting this whole time. He sucks as Rock lite and he sucks as Cena lite...stick with this version. It was pretty stupid to have Rusev no sell his finisher though.
Considering who was involved, Titus vs Blena wan't bad. The old school finish worked, and the backstage attack after was decent for what it was.
The Cesaro/Sheamus/Foley/Steph thing was okay, although I can't stand when they let Steph mouth off with no consequences like she did with Sheamus.
Nia squash...at least the announcers sort of sold this like it was serious.
Club vs New Day...the beat down was fun, but they should have let the match go a little longer so Gallows didn't look like a complete sack of crap.
Cesaro vs Sheamus was decent. I don't like how much Cesaro has started to spam the uppercut and lose the power spots, but I guess I'm in the minority.
Slater continues to be funny.
I like the dynamic Ownes and Jericho has, where he halfway calls his bullshit, but lets it go for laughs.
Seth vs Sami was decent...they're just both so goofy when they try to be serious, but at least their matches are decent.
Heyman's promo was better than it has been in a little while, and the Orton spot was well done and a good surprise...yes, I'm actually praising something involving Orton...luckily for him he only had to do one move so he didn't have time to bore anyone.
Overall, not a bad Raw, not as good as last week, but I didn't expect it to be. We're moving forward, there's at least some new type stuff happening and that's a good thing.
