MGFanJay Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 This was a show. Loved the Shellshock being done out of nowhere, and the hype song for Alberto-Cena. Loved seeing the tag titles in the main event. And the whole match ruled. Great stuff - hopefully it doesn't get a Dusty finish. http://jayreviewsthings.blogspot.com/2013/10/wwe-raw-10-14-13.html Screens - http://www.imagebam.com/gallery/udqww3vt7unmipl22nwo8eymxsl1mvkh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 HOLY SHIT FUCKING GOLDUST!! Match was insane. I liked how they worked Show into the end too. The Shield is so great also... no wasted motions from those guys.. I liked how Ambrose and Rollins didn't just stand around like idiots they went right at Show instead. Match of the year? I don't know... who cares anymore... the same group of 8-10 guys on the roster are putting on crazy matches every week. Who doesn't love this? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGFanJay Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share Posted October 15, 2013 I'm pretty sure it will have about the highest percentage of actual matches an act has had of anything. They are by far the best group in wrestling over the past ten years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 If it is possible to have a top 5 wrestler of the year when only working for 2 or 3 months then Dustin is definitely on that list. Just an amazing match and great work from all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Reigns: "You IDIOT! YOU NEVER PUT THE CHAIR DOWN!" was such a movie villain moment, just before he gets sucked out of the plane or whatever. Also, any wrestling match that ends with one of the announcers screaming "SOMEBODY ARREST THAT MAN!!!" ...is amazing 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Bones Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 The Rhodes "didn't have a chance" in the first part of the match. You had to build to the belief they could win. That makes the match complete in total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notoriusvig Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 The main was a pretty damn good match and everyone worked really fucking hard. I wish Cody showed more fire in the hot tag though. He's starting to show me that while he is solid, he's not anything above that. Also, I can't help but wonder why it's not Daniel Bryan in the Big Show spot. It's been a good story with Show but all DB gets is beaten up and Show gets a huge moment on two straight RAWs. I know DB got some big moments too in the past month but he needs it more than Show.

Victator Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Reigns sells like a video game wrestler. So he sold the chair shot for about a minute then popped up like nothing happened. That is worse than no selling. Otherwise a great main event. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Don't worry about Bryan, now that he's been attacked by Del Rio, he's solid as Cena's lil' buddy. YAY! He gets to be Brutus Beefcake!!! You know. Solid B+. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NintendoLogic Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I really liked the main event, but I also feel like it was a bit of a missed opportunity. With the no-DQ stip, they could have an All Japan-style tag with guys constantly running in and lots of brawling on the outside. Instead, we got a standard WWE tag, albeit a very good one, for the most part. Moving on, it's amazing how much more interesting the Bryan/Orton feud is when HHH and Steph aren't at the center of it. Orton ramping up the sociopathy was great. The downside is being subjected to Brie's acting, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victator Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Is there any chance Stephanie sells for or puts anyone over by the time this ends.Her and Shane are the worst promoter kids ever. The type that inspired Tully Blanchard to become a great wrestler, so he would not be thought of as a promoters kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rehabilitated Rick Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Reigns sells like a video game wrestler. So he sold the chair shot for about a minute then popped up like nothing happened. That is worse than no selling. Otherwise a great main event. Reigns is a part of the Anoa'i family and a former defensive linebacker, he's an hard cunt. Great main-event, chairs, spears through barricades, super-hot tags, perfect use of the enforcers, new champions, Brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Reigns sells like a video game wrestler. So he sold the chair shot for about a minute then popped up like nothing happened. That is worse than no selling. Otherwise a great main event. Reigns is a part of the Anoa'i family and a former defensive linebacker, he's an hard cunt. Great main-event, chairs, spears through barricades, super-hot tags, perfect use of the enforcers, new champions, Brilliant. "A hard cunt" not "An hard cunt", we pronounce the H in hard, so you don't need the N. That main event was so much fun. I was pretty sure they were moving the titles along, but I wasn't sure if it would've been by Bionic Elbow or Falcon Punch. Show mauling people with his fist is everything that's right with America. My main problem with this whole storyline remains Stephanie. I think at this point it's clear that IF she gets her's (and that's a massive if), it will come at the hands of a Diva. But after a couple of months of semi-feuding with AJ, she's all of the sudden doing her favors by tossing her opponents to the wolves? Her lack of focus is killing me.

HumanChessgame Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Show actually had a decent amount of matches without a recap of what happened earlier or last week every 10 seconds. Everyone in the back needs to watch Dustin/Golddust matches until they learn how to throw a proper punch. Is the IC belt the only long time title that has always looked pretty much the same?

Reggie20x6 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I only caught one moment of RAW while flipping around tonight, and it was HHH and Stephanie making out. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I know shitting on WWE creative is pretty fun, and often the right attitude to take. But going back a month and a half ago, before Cody was fired, was anyone thinking "You know, this whole HHH/Bryan thing would be a great gateway to put a title back on Golddust." No? No. I wasn't thinking that. I wouldn't have thought of that in a million years. It just wouldn't have occurred to me. Even when Cody Rhodes is all of a sudden thrown in a "you're fired" match with Orton, I'm not watching thinking "Ah...endgame for this is Rhodes brothers tag team title reign!" Nope. But clearly they were. This fantastic moment was planned out at least 6-8 weeks ago and unfolded perfectly without any swerves or giving up on the angle, or hotshotting it too quickly or putting it off too long. I got to give credit...probably two months ago, the WWE writers came up with an absurd and beautiful idea that no one could have predicted would go this well...and they executed it pretty well flawlessly. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
