MGFanJay Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Christian-Bryan was Christian's best match in ages - Christian's got a killer edge to him as a heel and he's needed that for years. Reigns-Henry was perfect and furthered that Reigns is better than Ambrose, while also setting up that match and furthering the Wyatts deal. Cesaro-Cena was damn near perfect. Cesaro came off like the motherfucking man here. Counter after counter after counter and it led to the Swing and AA meaning so much more when they finally hit. http://jayreviewsthings.blogspot.com/2014/02/raw-2-17-14.html Screens - http://www.imagebam.com/gallery/dclec7tiab4pdwrpcngwxyjihwnvpqs2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cole Miner Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Cesaro vs Cena was so damn great. I was questioning the wisdom of having the physical contact between the shield and the Wyatts there at the end. Crowd ate it up though and they cut the show quick enough. Cesaro vs Cena was just so good. First time I have wanted to come in and comment on something as it was happening since Henry's retirement speech.

piranesi Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Roman Reigns has changed, man.I missed the last half of the show doing husband ice-dancing duty, but I did see the Shield stuff and had plenty of twizzle time to think about it and I got to say I like how the turn is going. I can tell because I like Reigns, but I understand the heel here. I know a story is going well when I get the heel's side of things and that's what's happening here. Dean is the same guy he always was. he didn't make a big show out of it. He just started pounding on the week's victim. Just like they always did. i think he even said "That's what we do!" Because that's. what. shield. does. right?Right, Roman?Five weeks ago, Roman would have been right there with him beating on Henry. The fuck? It was good enough for you five weeks ago, but now it's wrong somehow? This. is. who. we. are. At least, it's who Dean is. Same as he always was. That's just his nature. I guess maybe Roman wants to better himself!!! Start watching Downtown Abbey!!!! Maybe take a community college course on social work? Maybe you want to start selling more t-shirts? Sounds like a buch of BULLSHIT to me and Dean.You are what you are, Roman. Join us, Roman. Embrace your nature, Roman! Eat the noodles, ROMAN!Note that Dean is morphing from one Kiefer villain (Ace Merrill) into the next one (David from THE LOST BOYS). Which makes Roman Jason Patric. FUCK JASON PATRIC!!! THERE IS A "K" IN PATRICK!!!!!! Also AFTER DARK, MY SWEET was disappointing.Actually, now that I think about it, a better analogy is Otto from REPO MAN. You're just a white suburban punk like us, Roman (okay, Samoan suburban just go with me here). Always were, always will be.Dean's all like, LET'S GO DO SOME CRIMES. LET'S GO GET SUSHI AND NOT PAY!!!!"Man, Roman would have loved this, until he went all weak-ass."Dammit. It's somewhere in there. Somewhere between Otto and Michael is Roman Reigns. And somewhere between "THEY'RE ONLY NOODLES, MICHAEL" and "I KILL PEOPLE LIKE YOU!!!" is Dean.Which makes Seth Rollins a cross between and 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARMDRAGON Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Cesaro matches are made even better by the obligatory Zeb Colter reaction shot at the end. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipGofern Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 And they wonder why their PPVs don't do as well as they want. For free we get MOTY candidates like Cesaro-Cena but on ppv we get boring shit like Orton-Cena part 54. Cesaro is totally the Next Big Thing. The People's Elbow reaction for the Swing is awesome. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cool arrow Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I'm glad they actually showed clips of Emma wrestling, so this week she wasn't just the cute girl doing the spastic arm thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Man Known as Dan Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I'm starting to wonder if Cesaro is gonna make a late push at March Madness glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rows Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Cesaro being able to flip out of the AA is crazy. Punk sure as hell always had trouble doing it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyLaw Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 They need to put Cena and Cesaro in a postWM feud and recreate the Hart/Austin double turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Ray Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 If this means that Dean gets waylayed by someone and Roman tells him "You're going to be alright...." (Dean makes dying gurgling sounds) "Maybe not." I'm all for it. 6 pack of drink for 99 cents. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaptain Kayfabe Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 By far the spot of the night was the Cesaro suplex on Cena from outside the ring back in. THAT is just stupid strength right there. I kinda wish they'd bring in Jesse Ventura for a World's Strongest Arm tournament. You figure they could put Cesaro, Henry, Big E, Reigns, Harper, and a few other guys in there. Print the money now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Batista fashion watch:This week is an AMERICAN IDOL-themed combo. Daughtry's shirt Carrie Underwood's jeans Paula Abdul's wit"You say you're a face, you're really a butt!" Fantastic, Dave. Roman Reigns has changed, man.I missed the last half of the show doing husband ice-dancing duty..... Wait, what? Had to switch to the Olympics. One couple danced to a remix of the soundtrack from ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST which wasn't awful There was also a pretty hot Black Swan.

Niners Fan in CT Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Cesaro's uppercut from hell to send Cena flying off the top rope was cool as fuck. I always love his strong man superplex also. Then the reversals at the end... man, it was awesome. They didn't get into finisher overdrive either. Great fucking match.

piranesi Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Wow. Just got to Titus' promo. I think this breakup is perfect. Darren gets to be a good-looking face and Titus gets to cut loose on some insane promos and mad suits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodhelmet Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I made the comment at PWO that it would have been even more awesome if Cena lays him out with the clothesline and gets the pin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cole Miner Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Cesaro being able to flip out of the AA is crazy. Punk sure as hell always had trouble doing it. Speaking of Punk hope his fans feel free to hijack that Chicago show. Will take awhile to lose the shine from that Cesaro/Cena match and a freaking this is awesome chant during a Cena match. One of the rare times I actually was glad to hear that chant start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Ray Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I really liked the Cena/Cesaro match. From what I caught of the Orton match on Friday, I'm hoping they work him into a sustained singles push as both matches were fun as hell. Aaaaand if we're continuing the Repo Man booking, Ricardo Rodriguez and someone as the goddamn Rodriguez brothers..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Man Known as Dan Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Seriously, is it a fair statement to say that Cesaro is, at worst, the No.2 guy in the world? Maybe I should just say USA, but he has to be top 3 on Earth right now, at worst. Certainly top 2 in the E. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I hate to say this but Orton/Sheamus had its moments. Randy did a great job selling the setup of those stupid chest punches. He was squirming and whining and terrified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
