May the 4th be with you! No, this week’s Raw probably won’t be overrun with Jedi, droids or Wookiees for “Star Wars” Day, but with both Randy Orton and Roman Reigns locked in attack formation as they pursue Seth Rollins’ WWE World Heavyweight Championship, we’re guaranteed some out-of-this-world action. You won’t need to use the Force to see what awaits on Monday night

I know it's kinda sad but in their defense New Day grates on the nerves without really trying

Bo is a bit more overt plus he's likeable no one actually likes The New Day.

Orton beat the previous tag champs, Kidd and Cesaro, by himself two weeks ago so this should be no problem for him, right?

Tom Guycott
05-04-2015, 08:18 PM
I'm actually sad that it took New Day to potentially reintroduce "the Freebird rule"... if they end up defending the belts that way, that is.

Still, they had The Shield and Evolution and The Wyatt Family in the way of 3 man stables they could have done this with. And it would have made SOO MUCH SENSE if 3MB did it.

Debatable. Bo grates on my nerves, and he looks weird.

I do like they pulled the trigger on them going heel instead of making them a Cena stable (in spite of shitting the bed, they remain faces nobody really likes, and the company continues to shoehorn them as faces".

It's kind of a shame they've invested so much into Cena / Rusev having an I Quit match at Payback, since it doesn't leave the result really in doubt here, but there's not really a stronger debut (I know he wrestled a tag match on Raw that one time, but that doesn't really count) than getting put over by Bret Hart and challenging THE GUY in WWE for a championship in your hometown which is nuclear hot for you.

I've said it before, but if WWE gets behind Sami Zayn, I could see him being the next face of the company..... has that same sort of "humble"ness about him that Cena has and seems like he would be really good at all the publicity and charity appearances and stuff. A face that the stockholders could be happy with.

Dark One

It would be strange for him not to stay on the main roster after a debut like that, but the NXT commitments make it a little weird.

But seriously, can you have THE GUY put a guy over about as well as he can short of losing the title and then shunt the guy back to "developmental" for a few months?

Emperor Smeat

Great debut for Zayn. Kicked out of the AA and has an excuse for losing with his shoulder being injured.

Yeah one of the big downsides to the Open Challenge. WWE needs to hold off on announcing Cena's ppv matchups early in order to keep the surprise with these matches.

I think Cole did say that if Zayn won, the Cena/Rusev match would become a non-title match. So, that does introduce the tiniest amount of doubt. But yeah, Cena was obviously going to win.

So, pretty great Raw. They had the guts to do some different things like New Day overcoming Orton/Reigns, adding Ambrose to the title match, having Sami Zayn show up for a competitive match with Cena, et cetera. Pretty much everything that happened had a story or a purpose or served as character advancement instead of just random "HEY. YOU TWO. GO OUT THERE AND TRADE WINS." Any of the stuff that didn't was brief and unoffensive and the exception rather than the rule, instead of the past few weeks which had been an unending flood.
