Welcome to another edition of A RAW Opinion, I’m Joe and I’ll be once again taking you through another episode of WWE Raw, we are 24 hours removed from Elimination Chamber, and to no ones surprise, Dwayne is still the WWE Champion, in what was a clusterfuck of an ending.
We start the show with John Cena heading to the ring. CM Punk interrupts almost immediately. CM Punk wants Cena to just go away, because he doesn’t deserve to be in the main event, John Cena challenges Punk to a match, whoever wins will go on to take on Dwayne for the WWE Title at WrestleMania, I knew this was coming. Punk says he won’t be doing it here tonight, he’ll be doing it on his terms. Punk says next week.
Sin Cara VS Mark Henry, lol. Gee, I wonder who’s gonna win this. Mark Henry wins, next.
Antonio Cesaro VS The Miz in a rematch from last night, this match is a No DQ match and is also a non title match, which means Miz most likely wins. Cesaro dissects Miz’s arm, Cesaros knee his a chair and Miz locked on the figure four for the win.
Dolph Ziggler VS Alberto Del Rio up next. Del Rio wins in a very good match. Big E attacks Del Rio afterward, Ziggler was about to hand the the referee the briefcase but Ricardo stole it and ran off with it, dropping it half way up the ramp, AJ chased Ricardo down and ran back with the briefcase, but when Ziggler turned around Del Rio hit an enziguri, no cash in.
Brodus Clay, Tensai and Naomi VS Primo, Epico and Rosa Mendes next. Yeah… Brodus, Tensai and Naomi win.
Video package announcing WrestleMania 30 in New Orleans, I’m not even gonna get into how pissed I am about that one.
Jack Swagger and Zeb Coulter in the ring for a “State of the union” address. Same song and dance.
Jack Swagger VS Daniel Bryan up next. Jack Swagger gets the win in a pretty good match, glad they didn’t completely bury Daniel.
Vickie Guerrero is in the ring with Paul Heyman, she has an announcement that could change Heymans career and his life. Vickie naming an assistant, It’s Brad Maddox. Vince says that next week he’s going to be on Raw, and him and Heyman are gonna fight, crowd didn’t give a damn about ANY of this segment, neither did I.
Chris Jericho, Sheamus and Ryback VS The Shield is up next. Great match, The Shield get the win again, Jericho had Ambrose in the Walls of Jericho and Rollins came off the top with a flying knee to the head, Ambrose picked up the pin.
Battle of the jobbers as of late, Kofi Kingston VS Damien Sandow. Match never got started, Sandow went right after Kofi and beat him down until R Truth came back and attacked Sandow.
Randy Orton VS Kane is up next. Orton gets the win after a pretty good match, Daniel Bryan came down, which distracted Kane, Kane turns into an RKO.
Dwaynes celebration is up next, I’m not even gonna bother. Possible interruptions by Punk and/or Cena. Dwayne won’t be on Raw the next 2 weeks, and in 7 weeks, we’ll be rid of him until next WrestleMania.
I’ll give this weeks show a solid 3.5/5, this is, of course without seeing what corny stuff comes from Dwayne this week. Predictable booking tonight, but I enjoyed a majority of the matches for the most part.

I will say though, it looks like Dwayne has a new title, which is going to infuriate me.

That title looks terrible…that’s why Punk dropped the title to Rock….Punk didn’t want to say that he helped design that piece of garbage.

That shits worse then the “spinner” which by the way, hasn’t spun in a while now.

My god…the bitterness.

It’s not bitterness, I would hate that look regardless of who introduced it, but what I find funny is, I bet 99% of the people who “love” the title look would shit all over it if it were Cena who introduced it.

I do like the way it winks at the older style.

I’ve never liked the ‘WWE Championship’ the belt has always seemed aimed at the younger audience, something WWE can sell.
Lets be honest kids love pretending to be the Champ, but what does anyone over the age of 15 need with a title belt? We don’t.
Unfortunately the Championship is nothing more than a product now and will now be designed to be sold to whatever demographic it mostly appeals to.
