Note: Well after the TNA PPV that made me almost speecheless and also cry my eyes out, I think WWE needs to make me happy. I hope this is the show were we see Brock come out and take on Triple H at Wrestlemania. I want to see some confrontation with CM Punk and Undertaker. I don't care about Cena and Rock because that is going to be easy to pick. I just want something good with this show. So with that said, here's WWE Monday Night Raw............
Opening Segment: Tribute to Paul Bearer. We see Undertaker with an urn. We see a video tribute and also the dead man givining respect. CM Punk comes out to interrupt and also disrespect Undertaker.
(Well CM Punk is a heel. He just got some mad heel heat for the shit he pulled. I still respect CM Punk because he played his role. Also he did what he was suppose to do which is to gain the boos needed to make their match move important at Wrestlemania. I miss Paul Bearer. He was a good solid manager.)
Match#1: Big Show vs. Seth Rollins
Winner: Big Show by DQ
(Good match. I was surprise to see that Rollins was able to actually wrestle not just be a punching bag. Big Show made this a good match because he can make good matches. I was not surprised that The Shield was going to interfer. Good way to build up a possible match with The Shield and Big Show.)
Match#2: Daniel Bryan vs. Dolph Ziggler
Winner: Dolph Ziggler
(This was a good match. I was shock to see this match be a close to perfect match. We saw everything. Dolph showed off. DB was technically sound. We saw AJ Lee involved. We saw that Big E was in the mix. This was an old school mid card match. No crap. Was happy to see this end clean and also see Big E do some damage. So shocked. )
Match#3: Fandango vs. Tensai (Sweet T.)
Winner: Never Started
(I was glad this was not going to happen. I literally hoping to see someone job but happy to have change channels during this shitty point. Both men are going to be let go after Wrestlemania. Moving on.)
Match#4: New Age Outlaws vs. Rhodes Scholars
Winners: No Contest
(Good match until Brock Lesnar came down and destroyed New Age Outlaws. Brock accepts the challenge of Triple H but there will be a mystery stipulation to the match at Wrestlemania. We won't know until they sign the contract.)
Match#5: Kofi Kingston vs. Mark Henry
Winner: Mark Henry
(This was a total sqaush match. We all knew that Kofi was fucked. Good bumps from Kofi. Mark Henry is going to kill someone soon. Good build up to the match with Ryback that is coming soon.)
Match#6: Ryback vs. Heath Slater
Winner: Ryback
(This was another squash match that was done to make a point to show that Ryback is a beast. It was funny to see how 3MB was basically used to make Ryback look powerful. Mark Henry comes in the ring and both Ryback and Mark Henry kill Drew McIntyre. Funny shit......)
Match#7: Antonio Cesaro vs. Antonio Del Rio - Non Title Match
Winner: Alberto Del Rio
(This match was setup to make ADR look like a baby face. This was a SSDD match. We saw it before but this time it was done to make Cesaro weak and ADR the baby face. I want to say this was going to be different but seen this fucking match over and over again. Thank god it was not for a title.)
Match#8: Randy Orton and Sheamus vs. Rhodes Scholars
Winners: Randy Orton and Sheamus
(This match was made after we saw that Rhodes Scholars was denied a match with the New Age Outlaws. So we got to see another match with these men with RKO and Sheamus. This was a solid match with both faces doing their finishers and also making them look for a possible match with The Sheild.)
Match#9: Chris Jericho vs. The Miz - #1 Contender Match to Face IC Champion.
Winner: No Contest
(This was done after a shitty segment with all three men. This is total bullshit. What happened with Bo Dallas and Wade Barrett? I was scratching my head and just moved on. Well we will see a triple threat match next week with all three men. Why? Both challengers are suppose to be in the main event not the mid card. )
Match#10: Sin Cara vs. Jack Swagger
Winner: Jack Swagger
(Ugh....I will say this was a pointless match. We did get to see ADR and Swagger fight to draw attention to their match at Wrestlemania. I also hope this is not the first match at Wrestlmania unless Swagger will steal the title.)
Main Event: Kane vs. CM Punk - No DQ Match
Winner: Kane
(This was setup after CM Punk came to mess up the tribute to Undertaker and Paul Bearer. They basically played this match to cater to the build up to Taker and CM Punk. Plus it was a fitting match to make because it will give Kane some push and CM Punk some heat. Good clean match. This was not a PG match. Loved the ending and the shit that CM Punk pulled after the match. Good way to end the show and show tribute.)
Final Thought: This was actually a good show. Nothing really to complain about except the Fandango shit. Also it was good to see that WWE can be classy when someone in their extended family passes. We all know that Vince believes that the show must go on regardless. This show was the catalyst I was waiting to see because we need to know what matches were going to be hyped for the PPV. And we did not see Cena or The Rock. Holy shit, no wonder why this was a good show. See you all for TNA Impact live from Chicago.
