BRM Reviews the 4/6/2015 Raw (great!)

Post by Big Red Machine » Apr 6th, '15, 22:42

No Cole. That’s good. Bringing him back this early would have been a mistake.

OPENING SEGMENT- Hunter and Steph are on vacation. Fun stuff all around. We wind
Come on Kane babyface turn!

RANDY ORTON vs. KANE- 5/10

They put over AJ’s Tweet, so maybe this is an angle.

KANE & ROLLINS ARGUE BACKSTAGE- The babyface turn continues!
Also, Brad Maddox is there. We also found out the location of Hunter & Steph’s vacation: a private island in the south Pacific.

(ADRIAN) NEVILLE vs. SETH ROLLINS (w/Joey Mercury & Jamie Noble)- 7.25/10
A great match, and if they capitalize on it well, the beginning of big things for Neville.

THE MARINE 4 COMMERCIAL- looks cool. Summer Rae appeared in one scene of the trailer, but looked really hot in that “I totally want to bang Cammy from Street Fighter” kind of way.

JOHN CENA PROMO- GREAT!

WWE UNITED STATES TITLE MATCH: John Cena(c) vs. Stardust- 7.5/10
Mr. Sinister would like me to announce that he has no affiliation whatsoever with Stardust and that this pathetic loser is totally stealing his gear and that’s not cool.
Stardust did the Diamond Dust. That made me happy.

THE BELLA TWINS vs. PAIGE & AJ Lee NAOMI- 4.5/10

PTP PROMO- I can see some people hating it, but I found it fun. I didn’t like them throwing up a picture of the Ascension in case we forgot what they look like. That annoyed me as a fan.

LUKE HARPER vs. RYBACK- 4/10

RENEE YOUNG INTERVIEW THE NEW DAY- GREAT! When they turn heel it will be AWESOME!

THE NEW DAY vs. LUCHA DRAGONS- 4.75/10
Booker: “They’re Baptists.”
Yes. Thank you, Booker. That is the gimmick.
They had a fun but short match.

ROMAN REIGNS vs. BIG SHOW- 6/10

HEEL DIVAS ACCOST KANE BACKSTAGE- they all want a title shot, but Kane sees through it. All four women (and Kane) were great here, but Nattie seemed out of place. Also, we have a #1 contendership match for next week.

RENEE YOUNG INTERVIEWS ROMAN REIGNS- okay

SHEAMUS PROMO- So he’s stealing Silas Young’s gimmick, but doing it a lot better.

SHEAMUS vs. MARK HENRY- 3.5/10
Wow. I didn’t expect them to job Mark out in Texas.

BRAY WYATT PROMO- eh.

RENEE YOUNG INTERVIEWS RYBACK- very good promo by Ryback.

THE MIZ vs. DAMIEN MIZ-DOW- 4.5/10
WHY ARE THEY GIVING THIS AWAY FOR FREE?!
Miz wins via roll-up while pulling the tights.

RENEE YOUNG INTERVIEWS RANDY ORTON- god

TRIPLE THREAT MATCH FOR A WWE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE SHOT AT EXTREME RULES: Randy Orton vs. Ryback vs. Roman Reigns- 5/10
Very disappointing, considering how great this show has been, but I’m almost tempted to give it a pass and call it a good segment because of the curb stomp afterwards. Almost.

A GREAT show from WWE, even with the disappointing main event. This whole show just completely flew by for me, despite the three hour length. They probably should have followed up better on Bryan, Barrett, and Ziggler, though.
