WWE Raw Review 6/9/14

Note: As with all shows, I hope for good things. Since we always start with WWE Raw, it shouldn't be said for a good show. This is going to be a good week because I hope for a good week of wrestling each week. WWE is gearing up for MITB PPV and hopefully it is going to be good. We got one match last week on WWE Smackdown so tonight we will get more good matches for this PPV. So here we go with WWE Raw...

Match#1: Bad News Barrett vs. Sheamus - Money In the Bank Qualifying Match
Winner: Sheamus
(For some reason, this was a good way to start the show. Even though both of these men have the mid card titles, this was basically what I like to see in an opening match. I ignored the titles and saw these men wanted to be a part of the MITB PPV. I will admit that even though Barrett is perfect as the IC champ, Sheamus as U.S. champ baffles me. How does a man from Ireland become the U.S. champion? Only Vince knows...)

Match#2: Zack Ryder vs. Rusev
Winner: Rusev
(This was so much of a jobber match that it was sad to see Ryder do the job for this big man. All I know is that I cannot watch Rusev wresle without seeing Lana. I am sorry but Lana has a nice ass and she is hot as fuck. Lame gimmick for both of them but Lana could read the phone book in Russian and I will be happy. Moving on...)

Match#3: Ryback and Curtis Axel vs. Goldust and R-Truth
Winners: Ryback and Curtis Axel
(Cody Rhodes needs to be on TV wrestling. This whole angle with him leaving his brother with these shitty tag team partners is getting old. We all know that we will see Cody vs. Goldust at SummerSlam. This was awful to watch, so moving on....)

Match#4: The Usos vs. Fandango and Damien Sandow
Winners: The Usos
(The Usos need competetion. This was bullshit. Moving on....)

Match#5: Xavier Woods vs. Bo Dallas
Winner: Bo Dallas
(Yawn....boring. Next match. )

Match#6: Cesaro vs. Rob Van Dam - Money In the Bank Qualifying Match
Winner: Cesaro
(This makes up for the boring match prior to this one. This was good. Cesaro is basically going to be a title contender. He is what WWE wants and what the fans need right now. RVD is just there to help the young talent get over. Unlike in TNA where he was there for a check. )

Match#7: Paige vs. Alicia Fox
Winner: Paige
(One word sums up this feud: weird. Paige is getting heat because she was just given the title because AJ Lee wanted time off. Paige is a good wrestler but she is losing the fans because her feuds are shit. This is just a weird thing because Alicia Fox is not crazy but she is trying to be. I love how Paige wins and get nervous seeing Alicia Fox lose her shit. Next!!!!)

Match#8: Jack Swagger vs. Santino Marella
Winner: Jack Swagger
(I did not watch this match at all. Why? I feel like this was filler for the main event. Usually that is what the Divas matches are. This was bullshit. So let's end this show. )

Main Event: John Cena, Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose vs. Bray Wyatt, Erick Rowan and Luke Harper
Winners: John Cena, Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns
(I will not speak about Yawn Cena but will speak on the other players in this match. This was a good match even better without Yawn Cena getting involved. Reigns and Ambrose will be a good tag team. There might not be no more Shield but at least all three men are moving on. This match proves it. Reigns is getting better and Ambrose is the loose cannon we miss on WWE TV. The Wyatt Family is better off with a new person to feud with. We all know that Yawn Cena is going to bury anyone that takes his spotlight. Time to end the review. )

Final Thoughts: I think Reigns and Ambrose are on their way to the main event. Seth Rollins is going to be in the main event sooner than later. This whole show is better than most. I think it is good to see some of the younger talent get more time but the IC title and US title needs to be featured since there is no champion and after tonight with Daniel Bryan getting stripped of the title, we will see more good MITB Qualifying Matches. See you all for TNA Impact....
