MGFanJay Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 The pre-show news of Bryan's dad passing away cast a dark cloud over the start of the show, but it wound up being a satisfying show. Loved the Evolution-Shield stuff. Cena-Wyatt has run out of steam in-ring, although Bray's promos are still special. Sheamus and Barrett had one heck of a match, while Cesaro was dragged down badly by RVD, WHO ACTUALLY WON... By countout to setup an SD Swagger-Cesaro match and maybe a PPV RVD-Cesaro one. And then the show just ended with Bray singing to Cena. Weird. http://jayreviewsthings.blogspot.com/2014/04/wwe-raw-4-21-14.html Screens - http://www.imagebam.com/gallery/t4f1i7ezhc3ix28w5cb540nssr0wkwod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overly Critical Man Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I feel like Wyatt needs to find a new song to sing. Maybe Dark Horse by Katy Perry or something by Pitbull. I dunno. I'm getting kinda sick of "Whole World in his Hands" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipGofern Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Move over Tom Petty/Kim Basinger, we have a new champ for "Creepiest Ballroom Dancing Couple" in television history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarChief EagleDemon Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 "Keep singing, Bray! We're not out yet!" At least he got another line out during Bray Wyatt's Old Tyme Sing Along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overly Critical Man Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 And lemme just say, RVD saying his conscience was clear with how he won by cheating....having Paul Heyman ask him if he was talking about him when he called Paul a con artist...but then replying instead by pointing to himself was all so very terrible.

hammerva Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I think he is trying to get the fan to stop singing the damn song by doing the only thing that seems to work and that is overexposure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Bray's act is better with a good crowd and not the shit one they had tonight. Cena not beating all three by himself would help too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cool arrow Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I think I can say with some certainty now that Sheamus is turning soon. I hope Bryan-Kane is an I Quit match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Not sure what it is a stretcher or ambulance that makes Brie Bella not give two fucks about what is going with Bryan. Showed tons of emotions and spirit in the beginning during entrance and then nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Cesaro's theme was garbage. It sounded like some of that generic BS you'd give a create-A-wrestler in RAW vs. SD! Also, Ryback telling stories on commentary was tons of fun. DA BIG GUY is hilarious. Oh and Paige is great. She makes the title look legitimate. I mean she had a halfway decent match with Aksana. That's something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showed tons of emotions and spirit in the beginning during entrance and then nothing Obvious explanation: She can show real emotion (like enthusiasm for her husband) well, but sucks at acting, so saddened/frightened/grieving for the worked beatdown, not so much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mco543 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 RVD is the worst. I never ever want to see him again. I never wanted to see him again after his last run but tonight just solidified it. I have no idea how you can have a bad match with Cesaro at this point but he did. Seeing Bryan come out with his eyes all red and puffy was heartbreaking but that was an amazing segment to write him out for a bit. Kane and Show have to be bookers' dreams; they can make them look inept, ridiculous, silly, and stupid every week for months or years but then in one segment they're monsters again. Kane as Steph's monster that not even she can control is a great way of using him. The only thing of note Paige has done on the main roster in 3 weeks is that knee to Aksana's nose, the only thing I think when she comes out is that she's a real low-rent version of MsChif and I'd rather see her instead. Hopefully Barrett takes the IC title. All RVD is good for at this point is his sell of the Bull Hammer which is surely going to be absurd. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offspring515 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Can we shoot RVD into the sun? Fans have no idea how to react to Cesaro now. Pop for the swing, complete silence for everything else. Probably backlash from his fraudulent March Madness win. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HumanChessgame Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I realize at this point Kane's character goes under massive revisions that completely bend logic and reason several times a year, but for some reason him going from being completely dominated by the Shield and not looking particularly strong as of late to suddenly being some unstoppable monster who totally squashed Bryan just didn't come off that well to me this time around. RVD came within inches of eating a Ganso Bomb there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetBlack83 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Was it just me, or was that whole RVD/Cesaro match pretty off? Not just the wrestling, but the camera was cutting away at weird times and, at least in Canada, they cut off heyman's promo walking down, brought it back, then cut it off again. Plus, that ending...did the ref think that Cesaro just got tired and took a nap? "Huh, he fell down...guess I better count as quick as I can". On the other hand, Barrett/Sheamus was pretty good. Loved the ending with the Bullhammer from the outside. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 If you can stink working with Cesaro at this point (and click with Orton of all people, back a couple months ago) then something is direly wrong. I understand them wanting to give Barrett a push, give Cesaro a feud, and give Swagger anything to do but we are missing Barrett/Cesaro. That is the new Regal/Finlay and needs to have the trigger pulled before the clock runs out on it. Wyatt just killed it all night. That promo made me want to join the Family. I had no idea what was up with Bryan getting emotional during the promo then found out here. I guess what he did was a method of catharsis through performance art? That's all I can break it down to.

Libs Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Barrett is so awesome now. I was enjoying the #BNB gimmick, but not really looking forward to him wrestling again on TV/special event and he came back so much better than ever. It feels like he's got legit main event/star potential now. And I echo those above, RVD's next leave of absence can't come soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
