Bourdain Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Cena beats Rollins. Orton beats Owens. Big Show beats Ambrose. BUT HEY WWE MAKES NEW STARS RIGHT? I know this might seem like an over reaction, if this weren't the case over the past decade. Rollins is the WWE Champion Ambrose ended up walking away while Big Show lay in the dirt Owens massacred Cena on his first night on Raw. You muppet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVA Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 This has to be some kind of record time for a hot up-and-comer to get dumped into the WWE's obligatory "job him out to see how he responds" booking phase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonteCarl Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 To those asking why do we still need to see Cena/Rollins at SummerSlam now that they just had the match on RAW and Cena won clean - We should want to see it because we know Cena can beat Rollins and this time it will be for the WWE Title. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trocar Slush Weasel Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 who else finds it funny that the WWE won't call her Charlotte Flair but yet keep beating us over the head that she's Flair's kid Because WWE Divas can only have one name. Except Sasha Banks, she's the BO$$. (EDIT: and Becky Lynch and Alexa Bliss and the Bellas and Blue Pants.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Really wish they could've called an audible on the finish to Cena/Rollins after Cena got fucked up. I don't mean have Rollins go over clean but whip up a finish that gives him an out- maybe a double KO or a DQ for RUDISSIMO EXCESSIVO after Rollins attacks the nose too many times.

Craig H Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 This is clearly a new merchandise opportunity for the WWE and John Cena. "NEVER GIVE UP" and "U CAN'T C ME" Rip Hamilton style face masks for everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy LaRue Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I noticed that Cena cinched in the STF really hard, too. Not a surprise. Now we know how to get him to apply it correctly going forward, ha. I always hate the facial knee strike. The margin for error is too high and if it's off by a couple of inches, there's a broken eye socket. This was just bad luck, but still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCM Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Paige/Sasha was another top-shelf match, on par with what's been going on in NXT this year. The spots with Paige out-smarting Sasha were well done to the point I was actually a bit surprised Sasha got the clean win. Between the flash win, and Sasha doing most of the talking backstage, I'm glad they seem to be moving her to more of the leader role in her group. I hope Paige doesn't get lost in the shuffle because she's repeatedly shown that she can be great when she gets something to work with. It would've fine for a tv match, but if that was at a Takeover it would've been a colossal let down. No where near Sasha's matches with Charlotte and Becky or the 4 way. Paige controlling the offense so much at the start gave away the finish, and did nothing for the match quality. Paige has repeatedly shown she can be great? I must have missed all the other times besides two matches with Emma where she showed her greatness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The slight problem with that is no one wants to see Cena get his 100th world title reign. We already knew Cena could beat Rollins he's done it plenty of times before. It's unbelievable to me that they didn't plan on rebuilding Reigns, and have him win the belt at Summer Slam. Putting the belt back on Cena is the most desperate stale thing they could do. Well maybe besides give Taker his win back over Brock lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I caught a bit of the last hour only of RAW. John Cena really is a miracle worker for getting a good match out of Seth Rollins who is a guy that usually doesn't make me care about any straight singles matches that he works.

Well maybe besides give Taker his win back over Brock lol. Not saying that I agree with the matchmaking, but that's the match they're going with and the story purpose of Cena winning the US Title match makes sense. Also, now that he's beaten Rollins clean, The Authority have no excuse not to grant him the match they denied him at the beginning of RAW. Had Rollins won the match, how would they get to the Cena/Rollins match at SummerSlam? And I don't see Cena actually winning the title at SummerSlam, so we don't have to worry about seeing Cena get his 100th World Title Reign quite yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this might seem like an over reaction, if this weren't the case over the past decade. Rollins is the chickenshit heel champion who cannot win a match on his own and talks too much. That's his character. Him winning a match clean against Cena is not what he would do. The guy is is the middle of a 4 month long WWE World Title Reign at the very top of the card. He is a star, whether you like or agree how his character is portrayed or not. Orton beat Owens via DQ when Sheamus interfered attacking Orton. Owens was not pinned nor submitted to lose the match. And at the end of the segment, he was the one standing tall with all other bodies laying around him. Big Show beat Ambrose via countout when Ambrose ran out of fighting spirit and BARELY couldn't answer a 10 count back in the ring after Big Show hit him with the punch, one of the most protected finishers in the company. And then he stood tall at the end of the segment after goading Show into trying to spear him, but moved and laid out Show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 WWE seems to be protecting Cena's eventual next title win, presumably to make it a BIG DEAL when he officially* ties Flair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the rating for that match proves to be positive, I would not be shocked if Cena wins at Summerslam. Everything in this company is reactionary. Although, I could see them pull the Cena has to overcome the odds booking and have him defend the US title during the show as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
