MGFanJay Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Pretty good show overall - not amazing, but it felt like they've at least settled Cesaro into that Finlay high mid-card/low-end main eventer role. Enjoyed the Ryback-Miz stuff with Bryan and Show - shame they kinda wasted Bryan, but whatever - they'll be doing a lot more of that. Speaking of which, NO STING in the Shield vs. Wyatts match sucks. Bray's a cult leader - have him bring in SOMEONE NEW. Amell was new, and awesome doing a hop over the ropes and a spear - Arrow threw a better one than Edge. Rusev stuff was all great. Rusev having his own flag is a perfect heel move, and Summer doing the camel clutch led to a hilarious visual. Main event was a match - hurt by it being a rushed match in concept and in execution. The fake tease has been done WAY too much, and they've added so many rules that the whole "OH MY GOD, HE'S CASHING IN" thing means nothing. He's cashing in...if the other guy is awake, the bell has rung, yada yada yada. http://jayreviewsthings.blogspot.com/2015/08/wwe-raw-8-10-15.html Screens - Please, allow the Force to save me http://www.imagebam.com/gallery/5621t3c3selv92pjtlcvmyxuqzd9jx3p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I enjoyed the triple threat. Fucking Cesaro with a springboard uppercut. Great match. Can't go wrong with Rusev and Hot Summer. Arrow looked athletic as fuck and could talk some. Miz had me fucking dying. What the hell was he wearing? He needs to be someone's manager.

mco543 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Rusev's flag and Summer's Camel Clutch were 2 of the best things all year. The rest of the show was really good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCM Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Orton pinning Cesaro clean killed the whole show for me. I checked out after that. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Orton pinning Cesaro clean killed the whole show for me. I checked out after that. It was pretty funny how it happened. It was basically like: "Wow, Cesaro and Owens are really in the middle of something speciaRKO...RKO...123 ORTON ALWAYS!" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BorneAgain Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 At this point I really want a Miz/Rusev/New Day team for Survivor Series just for the douchey heel potential leading up to the PPV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fresh Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 A gaming/comic Facebook group I'm in is full of people saying "I haven't watch Raw in 10 years, but I tuned in to see Arrow and I'll use the free month of the Network to see his Summerslam match!", so it may be working.

Charlie M. Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 The stuff with Orton and Sheamus is fine especially if Cena can't work SummerSlam. I'm sure he will but they really didn't push it that hard on the show. You could say Owens and Cesaro should be in the spots that Sheamus and Orton are in right now but their characters are just guys who bicker over losing to Cena. The Undertaker video was freaking great. Loved Austin treating it like a shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Dug most of the show. The triple threat was especially good though ff through the main event as Orton/Rollins holds none of my interest and I knew how it would go. Really liked the six-women tag and post-match brawl. I can't wait to see how the elimination match at Summerslam turns out. When Summer was beating down Lana the first thought that came to my head was Rusev screaming Summer crush so I was pretty damn ecstatic by the end of that segment. I've honestly been skipping through this whole Stardust vs. Amell/Neville feud, but went through it tonight just to see how it would go down. That was way better than I thought it would be. Amell was good and is hilariously more natural WWE tv than he is on Arrow. I'm actually looking forward to this now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Great show. Loved the Diva tag match, Summer nearly breaking Lana in half, New Day, and Cesaro settling into his role as gatekeeper to the upper card. I've watched Arrow off and on and was not surprised by Stephen Amell being totally diesel. Mother fucker does legit salmon ladders on the show. Dude is a beast.

Burgundy LaRue Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Kudos to Summer Rae. She had that Accolade cinched in HARD. She wasn't playing with that at all. Like she was trying to rip off Lana's face. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
