'You'll notice Daniel Bryan looking at the casket. That's becase he's never been involved in a Casket Match.' - Michael Cole

As opposed to being looking at it because, y'know, HE'S IN A FUCKING CASKET MATCH!

 

[L@RISANO]

I'm fine with the Bellas as heels. However, they lost every bit of value they had with that feud of theirs. It was horrible, uninteresting, not entertaining and went on for the better part of ever.

I don't know... I'd say Brie lost alot of value, as I'm sure the plans were to give her a push by having her turn on Nikki at some point.
I think Nikki has done a good enough job since going heel... ntm, plastic or not, that

 

[Hard Hit Prince]

Yeah their feud was pretty awful though. But Nikki's been developing an interesting character, I dig it at least, sometimes. But whatever, it's not like WWE gives two shits about it.

Anyone already buying in Daniel Bryan vs- Dolph Ziggler for WrestleMania?

 

[rbv13]

I wasn't saying the Bella Twins are terrible or worthless. I was speaking more to the natural skill of Paige.

 

[Hard Hit Prince]

This match has been boring for the most part.

 

[klunderbunker]

This match has been boring for the most part.

It's the problem with matches like this. There's nothing to do but tease the casket and kick out time after time.

 

[FunKay the Inevitable]

WWE 24 has the potential to be great, but it was just too short. A bit all over the place really.

 

[L@RISANO]

This finishing anytime soon would be nice...

 

[rbv13]

Could do without randomly announced Casket Matches.

 

[FunKay the Inevitable]

Dat pop...

 

[rbv13]

This is stupid and unimportant but those boots of DBry's are annoying the hell out of me.

Corporate Kane is gone. Here come the rise of the Monster, yet again.

 

[The_Reptile_]

Hopefully tonight spells the end of Kane and Big Show being relevant.

Review is up.

And So It Ends. Please Dear Goodness Let It End.

 

[PeterSellersSTL]

that was an awful match, and it's cartoonish the way Bryan telegraphs the opponent-goes-charging-over-the-rope spot. Zayn does it a lot better. I'm tired I'll pick apart Bryan's in ring work some other day - but geez, he looked a step slow today. The best matches he had were with Randy Orton - which is no surprise - like RVD said if you can't have a good match with Randy Orton you don't belong in the ring.

Anyway, as for the show overall I expected a better outing but the RTWM has just started so I'll cool my heels.

/bad grammar

This week’s Raw changed a lot of things about the Fast Lane and potentially Wrestlemania cards. The big story was Daniel Bryan defeating Seth Rollins to earn a shot against Roman Reigns at Fast Lane with the winner facing Brock Lesnar for the World Title at Wrestlemania. This is due to the Rock interfering in the Royal Rumble when Rusev was still involved and somehow was announced without ever mentioning Rusev’s name. Let’s get to it.

Let It Go. Let It Go.

I'm not much on the type but Summer can pull off the sexy blonde very, very well.

 

[772Attitude]

Is a Daniel Bryan heel turn in the future?

 

[rbv13]

Why are the tag champs in this gauntlet match? Making them and the straps look pretty shitty.

This interaction between Reigns and Bryan is beyond lame.

 

[Tyrath]

Why are the tag champs in this gauntlet match? Making them and the straps look pretty shitty.

Typical WWE booking around Wrestlemania season when they have 2 faces revving up to right each other, BUT FIRST they must tag together.

 

[L@RISANO]

watching it delayed. interesting match it is thus far...

 

[L@RISANO]

bryan holding his submission for too long on the Uso...reigns making the save? intriguing, to say the least. Why is there a Sheamus hype ad coming in the middle of the match when both guys are arguing?

 

[rbv13]

Are they going to give us Kane vs. Big Show at WM?

 

[L@RISANO]

i hope they don't do it. If anything,I hope it leads to both Bryan and Reigns finally finishing off both Show and Kane on RAW next week and get away from that shit forever and ever.


I quite liked how the tag turmoil played out with Reigns and Bryan showing some respect for each other at the end. Gave me some hope for the story they have messed up badly in the past couple of weeks, lMO.


One things I don't particularly like is how much punishment Reigns takes each match. Makes him look like too much of a chump rather than a badass.


All in all, not a bad episode overall. the Ascension got a great rub from their beatdown of both guys, without a doubt.

The big story coming out of Raw is Bryan and Reigns finally coming to blows with Reigns spearing Bryan after winning the match. It didn’t come off like a heel turn, but rather Reigns being more aggressive instead of his usual laid back self. The question now becomes what happens to them going forward, as this is a pretty hard turn for the story and could help things out a good bit. Let’s get to it.
