"Believe We're Here." WWE Raw LD 2/17/14

[The Butcher]

Another week without Barrett. Guess they needed that crane to pull Punk's ego from the ceiling.

Barrett is playing action figures with the Rhodes brothers.

 

[Spidey Revivey]

Holy shit that one guy looked kinda like Lesnar for a second.

 

[shafe_41]

Barrett did make an appearance backstage.

Well shit... I must have FF'd that on the DVR. Was it the Goldust/Cody segment because I did FF that?

 

[#tamale]

Am I the only one that honestly does not miss Punk one bit?

Ever since Punk left, Raw has been pretty good and SD has improved. Just saying...

 

[shafe_41]

My bad. I'll hafta go back for the Barrett segment. MY BAD EVERYONE!!!

 

[L@RISANO]

Am I the only one that honestly does not miss Punk one bit?

Well, be honest. I don't care for his absence either.
Obviously, he is a loss, but not a critical one that would hurt too badly once the others who have remained are booked wisely.

 

[nightmare]

Somehow I think that we are missing an opportunity with Cena and his doppelganger Darren Young. If this was TNA they would have him hide under the ring & roll in when Cena is hurt, paying no attention to the fact he changed colors all of the sudden.

 

[L@RISANO]

My bad. I'll hafta go back for the Barrett segment. MY BAD EVERYONE!!!

you didn't miss much...lMO.

 

[The Butcher]

My bad. I'll hafta go back for the Barrett segment. MY BAD EVERYONE!!!

It's just that Bad News Barrett was already on the show.

 

[L@RISANO]

Ever since Punk left, Raw has been pretty good and SD has improved. Just saying...

ooo...go hide somewhere...the knives are being sharpened.

 

[L@RISANO]

I hope there is some kind of swerve in this match or it will be an underwhelming Main Event match after Cesaro-Cena.

 

[shafe_41]

Just give me a Triple Threat match with Bryan, Cesaro, and Bray sometime this year. There's your match of the year.

 

[Slash-LN]

Well shit... I must have FF'd that on the DVR. Was it the Goldust/Cody segment because I did FF that?

Yep. He came in and kicked the toys off the table.

He was on Smackdown making fun of Valentine's day on Friday too.

I'm not sure why they left him off Raw last week.

 

[shafe_41]

I hope there is some kind of swerve in this match or it will be an underwhelming Main Event match after Cesaro-Cena.

A lot of matches with Orton or Sheamus are underwhelming. Cena/Cesaro was the best Raw match since Cena/Punk had theirs last year.

 

[shafe_41]

Christ Orton that kneedrop wasn't even half close.

 

[Galvatron]

I'm a Punk fan that is just glad nobody made a list of 50 reasons why Kevin Nash is better than Punk....

 

[shafe_41]

Vintage Cole with the Vintage Orton.

 

[#tamale]

The thing I do love about Orton's matches is when busts his simple counters to his opponents signature moves. It gives the feeling that Orton really does studies each and every wrestler.

 

[Vageena Hertz]

Has Orton ever hit the RKO the first time?

 

[Galvatron]

Brawl time.

 

[L@RISANO]

Send the Wyatts!

 

[shafe_41]

SWERVE

 

[BooCocky]

The crowd barely erupted there.

 

[FlexAmerican Dynamite]

Without a doubt the best RAW in months. At least in terms of wrestling and cutting down on garbage segments.

 

[Slash-LN]

Nice exciting finish.
Pretty good show tonight.
