WWE Raw 9-29-14 - Raw is Komen

The IC Triple Threat was awesome. It was not your typical WWE "Throw one guy out of the ring while two go at it for a few minutes. Guy returns to throw another out. Repeat" Triple Threat. They were innovate with their "triple" spots, and all the guys really worked hard. Definitely MOTN for me.

Ambrose is the first guy I can remember since Bryan who can carry multiple segments and keep things interesting. And before Bryan I can't remember anyone in recent history who had that gift.

 

For some reason, Ambrose wanting to auction off the Sheamus shirt for a quarter had me in stitches. 

 

Enjoyed JBL getting in his quip that Tyson should be happy the fans are trying to antagonize him because at least someone is paying attention to him. We should create a drinking game around JBL subtle burials.

The Tyson Kidd thing reminded me of when Jimmy Jacobs was injured in ROH and would come out for Lacey's matches, but would inevitably get bored, light a cigarette, kick Rhett Titus or Bobby Dempsey out of the folding chair at ring side, and pull out his phone to text people.

Is that where this is leading? Is Tyson going to turn into AOTF era Jimmy Jacobs?

John Cena feels so out of place being involved in this Ambrose-Rollins stuff. More out of place than HHH felt interjecting himself into a feud with CM Punk, and almost as out of place as Randy Orton feels just being anywhere on WWE TV at the moment.

 

The idea that Cena could potentially go into HIAC and run roughshod over both men in the same night (or as I call this, being Wyatt'd) makes me want to cry.

 

Just get him the fuck out of this storyline. Move him on to Rusev already.

I kind of love how Ambrose has absolutely no connection to anyone now that the Shield is gone.  He hates Rollins.  Everyone else is just a slab of meat that either is or isn't making noise at him.

 

He shits on heels.  He shits on babyfaces.  He has no "friendship" with anyone.  like Austin, but not so aggressive about saying "fuck you" to everyone.  Like, he hasn't made it his calling card yet.  He is just completely detached.

Cena/Rusev would make sense if either Cena or Rusev had the belt.

 

We've reached page 3 and nobody is complaining about Triple H "burying" The Miz gimmick. Good stuff.

 

Oddly enough it was entertaining.

I was going to comment on the burial of the Miz gimmick, and I have two thoughts.

 

1)  Miz as a heel who really is a direct-to-video star SHOULD be called out on that. 

 

2)  The problem with him being a direct to video star is he's a direct to video star for WWE Films.   So burying him as a direct to video star in a movie that your company put him in isn't exactly a vote of confidence for everyone to run out and check out the movie when it gets released.

 

That said, I think I could get behind The Double Visionaries as heel chasers for a baby face tag champ.

Does this make Cena the new Poochie? Interrupting Dean and Seth's trip to the fireworks factory.

 

 And whenever Poochies Cenas not on screen, all the other characters should be asking "Where's Poochie Cena"?

 

The problem with the storyline is if Brock was going to be taking the month off they should have hotshotted the title onto Rollins. That way there would be a logical reason why Cena, and Ambrose (and Brock when he's up to it) would all be chasing after Rollins. 

 

Based off what has happened, you can certainly understand why Cena would be pissed with Rollins but it doesn't beg for a prolonged feud. And it feels like he's getting in the way because the crowds are clamoring for Amrbose-Rollins.

Is it too much to ask for Harper to come back hell bent on finishing what Bray started with Cena? There's plenty of time to set that feud up with Harper returning to destroy Cena in a week or two. Of course this would lead to Harper losing his first singles feud, but I just want Cena away from Rollins and Ambrose's hitc match.

Miz did sneak in one quick jab about Triple-H's film career with the "Mr. Chaperone" line at some point during his commentary, but it would have hit better if he said it immediately after the verbal putdown.  He probably got it from twitter anyway.

First off if any of us win the Powerball or Megamillions we should start a new company (or maybe just buy TNA or ROH dirt cheap) and have Ben book the rasslin and piransei book the comedy.

 

So I had to watch RAW in halfs (first half last night...second half earlier) on account of me getting sick all of a sudden. Roman Reigns getting injured really was a blessing because you can almost believe that he would be doing all this stuff with Rollins and Cena and Roman doesn't have the personality or the ability to ad lib like Ambrose to pull off general insanity.

 

Ambrose was so awesome with his little quips at everyone. Asking if the security guys were the Rosebuds last week was great.

 

I wasn't expecting Bo vs. Mark Henry to be so damn funny, but man Henry was killing me with every hit he laid down on him. Then Bo gets the upset win. So awesome. Even more awesome was the post match beat down. Mark Henry doesn't run for anyone.

 

Damien Mizdow limping into the office with The Miz and getting into Triple H's face was too damn funny. So I guess they'll have Miz go for the US Title. That will solve the problem of keeping the belt on Dolph for a while.

 

Oh yeah Jesse Jackson at a WWE show and high fiving the bunny might be one of the most surreal things I've seen in a while.

HHH was putting over the Miz's gimmick. I mean...the phoniness and absurdity in the face of what's obvious is the entire gimmick, almost exactly like Bo.

HHH does need to do "hiding behind his wife like a bitch" better, though. He puts on his tough guy DX smirk, when he should be doing some sort of subtle selling to identify his cowardice and the idea that she wears the pants.

I really have to disagree with everyone about the security/Rosebuds line. Shooty bullshit that Punk would have gotten crucified here for, and rightfully so.

I dunno, Punk tended to do everything with this knowing smirk, like he was something between an episode of Parker Lewis Can't Lose and Family Guy. There's something sincere about Dean where shooty comments could be coming from a real place, like he has cigarette smoking man level paranoia that everyone is in on It and he's not entirely sure what It is yet but when he does he is going to DDT the hell out of It.

Also, he's just a refreshing new face so I don't mind it as much.
