Raw 7-21-14

[MGFanJay]

Loved HHH's snarky promo to start the show, and Orton using Kurt's IT'S DAMN TRUE line. A whole lot of nothing happened until THE MIZ DRESSED AS A SHIRTLESS SONNY CROCKETT. Nikki coming out of her top was something too. Steph-Brie continuing was iffy here, but led to greatness with Steph being arrested and HHH caring - but not too much. His skit with Joey was fantastic. Loved Ambrose-Cesaro. The look of sheer joy on Heyman's face as Brock came out was glorious. Heyman's promo hyping up Brock-Cena was amazing - I can't wait for that match.

Zack Ryder won a match...that's when you know creative has hit rock bottom.

[Dolfan in NYC]

RIP John Cena.

When I saw the cops coming out to arrest Steph, I was sure it had to do with her bringing out Flo Rida.

Or he's moved up from the bottom of the doghouse.

[Curt McGirt]

Well who expected Dolph/Miz to almost steal the show, if they didn't have Ambrose/Cesaro and so many good angles popping off? At the same time, we have Nation of Domination Redux in the works and Nise Disco Inferno vs. Nise Disco Inferno Jr... at least I could overlook the latter due to Layla. Like, literally overlook it.

[The Nature Boy]

Is Stephanie the first person to be arrested for a crime committed on a pro wrestling program? Attempted vehicular homicide, attempted homicide and kidnapping are not serious enough to get law enforcement involved, but slapping a fan is. Tim McGraw should be happy that he isn't in WWE.

The odds certainly do seem to be stacked against him.

[hammerva]

If we had a only dollar for every "Stand your Ground"  joke on that segment  

 

So many weird things tonight:

 

Zack Ryder getting a win on RAW. 

Xaiver Woods bringing back the Nation of Domination  

 

Loved Triple H threatening the cops telling them that arresting a McMahon is a "career decision".  That line has to been used many times before.  Plus we got numerous Jerry McDevitt talks.  As far as I know he has never been on TV before.  

 

Just to make sure, we know that Lesnar is winning the title at Summerslam right  

[Niners Fan in CT]

Heyman's promo was so fucking great as usual.

 

I'm probably way too excited for this.. 

 

[just drew]

Titus O'Neil has to join this too, right?

John Cena vs. the odds is the most one sided feud in wrestling history.

[greenbat]

Vince should win humanitarian of the year for still employing Khali

CAN THE YOUNG WHITE MEAT BABYFACE OVERCOME THE ODDS?!?!

[The Green Meanie]

Zach Ryder not only got to be on camera twice, but won a match! Good for him!

 

I was happy Heath Slater got some TV, I was hoping they would reference the whole previous Flo Rida issue.

 

Also, Xavier Woods went from being the black power ranger to Malcom X?

[Overly Critical Man]

I'm glad the Brother Love suit is getting some more use because of Xavier Woods, btw.

[piranesi]

Steph had become the absolute master of generic villain talk.
 

"Let that be a lesson to ALL OF YOU!"
"I'LL HAVE YOUR BADGE!!"
 
     You haven't lived...really lived, if at some point you haven't been caught on camera screaming  "I'LL HAVE YOUR BADGE!!"

That keeps the black power theme intact, though.

[Niners Fan in CT]

Triple H was hilarious again as well. He's so great in this role. "It takes a while for processing right?"

[nate]

Titus O'Neil has to join this too, right?

Only if they want it to work. David Otunga too ...

[Jamal]

Glad that we are finally getting heel Paige. Loved the AJ beat down and mock skipping. Somewhere, Saraya Knight is saying "now THAT'S my daughter!"

Everything with Stephanie and the Bellas was gold. The arrest was awesome and well played. Nikki continues to gain sympathy as she suffers for her sister's sins lol

[hammerva]

Titus O'Neil has to join this too, right?

 

Big E is the new Mark Henry

Kofi is the new Dlo Brown

Xaiver is the new Clarence Mason

Titus is the new Kama

 

Not sure who would play PG-13 though.   And not sure who would end up being the Rock in the group

[Uncle Coaster]

Great Raw.

Xavier Woods, Kofi and Big E are already doing MVP, King and Lashley better than MVP, King and Lashley.

For the love of God, just give Paul Heyman a Glenn Beck/Rachel Maddow style show on the network and let him put over each storyline and watch the subscriptions soar.
