WWE Hell in a Cell 2014
WWE Hell in a Cell 2014 (10/26/2014)- Dallas, TX
KICKOFF SHOW:
MIZ-DOW TV, WITH SPECIAL GUEST: THE MIZ- MUST SEE AWESOMENESS!
Also, Sheamus’ part was cool (although the effect was a bit corny). Most importantly, though, let the seeds of dissent be planted!
MARK HENRY vs. BO DALLAS- squash. Actually, more like a murder. Bo is going to drive Mark over the edge to the dark match.
MAIN SHOW:
For those wondering about the ring-announcer situation now that Justin Roberts has been let go, they had Eden Styles (Cody Rhodes’ wife) and Lillian Garcia were splitting duties.
2 OUT OF 3 FALLS MATCH FOR THE WWE INTERCONTINENTAL TITLE MATCH: Dolph Ziggler(c) vs. Cesaro- 7.5/10
A good story, great counters, awesome action, and a fantastic finish.
THE AUTHORITY BACKSTAGE- Orton is pissed at Rollins for Curb-Stomping him on Raw. Steph tells him to take his anger out on Cena in their match, not Rollins. Hunter made a heelish excuse for Rollins’ actions.
LOSER BECOMES THE WINNER’S PERSONAL ASSISSTANT FOR 30 DAYS: Nikki Bella vs. Brie Bella- 2.5/10
WWE TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH: Goldust & Stardust(c) vs. The Usos- 6.5/10
HELL IN A CELL MATCH TO DETERMINE THE #1 CONTENDER TO THE WWE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE: Randy Orton vs. John Cena- 8.75/10
Lots of awesome stuff, and some great counters and great use of weapons. The crowd was very pro-Orton. Not just the usual â€"Cena sucks chants,†but actual chants for Orton like â€"Let’s go Randy!†and â€"RKO!â€
MARK HENRY & BIG SHOW BACKSTAGE- Big Show said he would beat Rusev, for himself, for American, and for Mark Henry, too.
WWE UNITED STATES TITLE MATCH: Sheamus(c) vs. The Miz (w/Damien Miz-Dow)- 5.75/10
Fun stuff. Sandow rocks. They had the crowd in stiches with the post-match stuff. The extra Brogue Kick at the end was kind of douchy, though.
BRIE IS NIKKI’S SLAVE- good heel stuff, but why do this on the PPV? You’ve got four weeks of this to do on TV, and it is the sort of thing that gets boring pretty quickly. Why waste PPV time with this when you could use it as a great segment on Raw.
BIG SHOW vs. RUSEV (w/Lana)- 4/10
Big Show used the Haas of Pain. That was awesome.
DEAN AMBROSE PROMO- great
WWE DIVAS TITLE MATCH: AJ Lee(c) vs. Paige (w/Alicia Fox)- 5/10
Paige slapped Fox after the match and said that she hated her.
HELL IN A CELL MATCH: Dean Ambrose vs. Seth Rollins (w/Joey Mercury and Jamie Noble)- 7.25/10
They did some stuff on top of the cage to start off, including Noble a suplex on top of the cage), and both took bumps through announce tables from about half way up the cage.
These two guys were putting on an awesome, and you really got the feeling that they wanted to kill each other…
Then they f*cked it up by having the lights go out and Wyatt Family magic bullsh*t happen. Bray attacked Ambrose, letting Rollins get the pin. It’s bullsh*t interference in a main event cage match. It basically sabotage’s this match’s (and Rollins’ and Ambrose’s) chances of standing out as breakout main event… and why? Just to start a midcard feud between guys who should be main eventers but WWE has decided to keep stuck in midcard purgatory. This whole thing was just absolutely f*cking infuriating, and it’s a damn shame, too, because the show was great, but this is the feeling that everyone will be coming out of it with.
