Betty White hosts RAW and.....she's done
Betty White comes out with the Big Show to excite the crowd. It does its job, but seeing them two on stage reminds you of something...
Ugh why did I do that. Anyway, they get cut off by the Authority. HHH and Stephanie head to the ring and wait let me guess...they talk about RAW, the Elimination Chamber and the WWE Network, then Orton comes and bitches and moans....and I'm right except for the bitching and moaning. So Orton tries to get in the Authority's limelight.The only thing that stands out was Orton saying that he has a heart. That sentence just made me giggle. Him saying all that just reminds me of the Tin Man from Wizard of Oz
In the middle of all this, you hear small chants of CM Punk. They can quiet the chants, but not get rid of them. Bryan comes out wanting to fight Kane, but is giving time off when a sea of NO chants erupt.
Rey Mysterio/Rhodes Bros. vs The Wyatt Family 3 man tag match and The Shield interview
-Cody Rhodes and Erick Rowan start off the match. The action was ok, but it was lacking excitement. In the end bodies flew everywhere and Rey set up for the 619, but Bray tagged himself in and did a weird running Sister Abigail. Wouldn't it be nice if Paige from NXT came into RAW as Sister Abigail? He lets on a promo. Bray Wyatt is one of the greatest mic speakers today. He can say the same thing over and over again a different way each time and come off as entertaining.
-The Shield gets interviewed by Renee Young saying they will beat the Wyatts. Then Dean Ambrose is grilled on not defending his US championship. Tonight he will lay down an open challenge.
Comedy segment and a non-comedic match
-Betty White is back surrounded by the totally divas. They pull a plug for Betty White's new show whilst trying to take away any talent she has. The actually comedic duo New Age Outlaws comes in and they take White away.
-Santino Marella w/ Emma vs Fandango w/ Summer Rae. Yeah like I care...going to get my Cuba Libre or Rum and Cola. I guess I missed The Miz complaining the same thing we all are watching this trash. The only good thing is there is little dancing. Fandango wins. Mmm...too much cola.
A good match with some promo segments.
-Sheamus and Christian makes some promos about the Elimination Chamber...
Oh I was thinking about something else. Something more entertaining.
-Sheamus/Christian vs The Real Americans. Now this was a great match. Sheamus and Caesro should have a rivalry especially how physical and brutal they can be. Also Caesro is becoming more and more over since he is being cheered even though he's a heel. WWE has gotten their face/heels in the wrong place. We want to see people loud and energetic like Bryan, physically entertaining like Caesro and someone to stand up and speak clearly with the heart like CM Punk. Swagger and Christian were there...ahh Swagger. Remember when Swag was about to get the WHC with Zeb Coulter. Kids don't do drugs or you will end up like that Real American and get a Brogue Kick with a loss.
Mr. Fruity Pebbles and the Squash Match
-John Cena is interviewed, but it looks like a plug for the WWE Network and the future stars of WWE. "Change is Coming," phrase has been said a million times and only Punk has came through for us.
-Alberto Del Rio vs Dolph Ziggler. It was so short like a Ryback vs jobber match. Del Rio took a lot then hit two moves and IWC's favorite son goes down for a three count. Then "El Perro" puts on the cross armbreaker for his trademark post-match signal to Batista. Speaking of which, Batista rumbles with Del Rio and Batista Bombs him through the announcers' table. It was exciting unlike their match at Elimination Chamber.
WWE Network brainwashing along with some Promos
-The Bella Twins try to show you how to get the WWE Network. For 8.99 with a 6 month commitment. Wow what a deal! You get free television and PPVs. Cool,but they include soooo... much other crap. Like we care. Look the only reason to buy it is so you don't get commercials and don't have to buy PPVs. Even though you can find it online for free. Now if they take away the trending, twitter, facebook and the pg rating WWE might have a deal for me.
-Batista promo with Triple H each say that things have changed since four years ago. Yes they have. Four years ago, we didn't need facebook in WWE or allow a poster boy to be noticeably despised by hardcore fans and wimp out like Batman Forever.
-Betty White and the NAO are down for tea and I got two words for ya...ORANGE PEKOE. Meanwhile Road Dogg puts laxative in White's drink. Before she drinks, the NAO goes gets lemons for her. She switches her cup with Billy Gunn's. Reminds me of some movie...
-Lita is in the Hall of Fame
The Midcard titles...
-The Usos vs Rybaxel. NAO comes to commentate. The Usos won in a short match, but it was Billy Gunn who stole the show with him running out to take the Browns to the Superbowl. Turns out the Usos may be getting a tag title match, finally. They have been so impressive lately that they deserve the titles.
-Dean Ambrose has his US Championship open challenge match. Out comes Mark Henry. Henry dominates the match with the Shield to interfere and cost Henry the championship. This was followed by The Wyatts coming out inching to the ring just for them to back off. Wow what excitement!
-AJ Lee/Alicia Fox/Aksana vs. Bella Twins/Cameron. Now this was another diva tag or six team tag match we have seen sooooooooo many times. Ladder matches, cage matches and table matches would be nice in the diva's division hell even good wrestling, but I guess that's why it is called divas division. It makes women on the Jerry Springer Show look like natural athletes. Wow that's kinda harsh.
Team Hell No doesn't hug anymore
-Kane comes out and tries to explain himself in corporate mannerisms. Look if you are going to do this then stop pandering to kids. They don't get this shit. And if you are trying to incorporate hardcore adult fans then trash the place up a little. Corporate bullshit is something no one cares about. At least Daniel Bryan knows all this and kicks Kane's ass.
Main Event
-John Cena vs Randy Orton. I was wondering when I saw them coming out, "Are all the audience on sleeping pills?" They just didn't care. It was just another Orton vs Cena match. We have seen them all. Throughout the match you can hear CM Punk being chanted and I just don't blame them. CM Punk taking a piss would of been more energetic and fun to watch. I don't care about repeat matches. Some can be nostalgic like Kane vs Undertaker or The Rock vs Stone Cold. Some can be reruns of the same old stories like face Cena going against heel Orton. Now if Cena was a heel and Orton was a face, I wouldn't mind it.
Anyway we close out with Cena winning with the Attitude Adjustment.
Overall 3/10
Now this was all just filler. Smackdown was better. It was shorter and just the matches were better. Sheamus and Caesro were the only good thing to come out of tonight. Now for my question to the audience.
If you could change one thing about the WWE what would it be?
