WWE RAW 14th May 2012 - LIVE Discussion

[John McHenry]

I guess John Cena v Johnny Ace is now going to be the main event at OTL. Not the WWE Championship yet again.

Im hoping for fatal four way to end the show

They want fans to care and paying customers to be happy and involved so neither World title will be defended as the main event. Not enough people care to actually watch Bryan, let alone a hodge podge of Jericho, Orton, and Del Rio. It will be Cena to go last because he sells, fans care, and that is what they pay to see not Bryan/Punk or the fatal 4 way, as that is what people stream illegally to see

After RAW went off the air, John Cena left the ring and went to the back.
The dark match was up next featuring CM Punk defending the WWE Championship against Chris Jericho. Punk defeated Jericho clean with the GTS.
Cena was then back out, and he teamed with Sheamus and Randy Orton to defeat Lord Tensai, Dolph Ziggler and Kane after Cena pinned Ziggler. After the match, all the faces hit their finishers on Ziggler.

Must have been an indifferent RAW again since the thread wasn't that popular. It is a good gauge for how good the show is, if it is 500+ posts it normally means it is good because it at least got people talking.

Big Show fired hopefully means a break for him, he can take some time off to rest and then they can refreshen his character a bit.

The stipulation for Ace vs. Cena makes me think that Ace will somehow win.

Heyman showing up with HHH is interesting and is probably one of the few things that I will check out.

Pretty weak that Kane goes from beating Show to getting a pre show match against Ryder at OTL.

Big Show returns and helps Ace beat Cena so he can have his job back. As everyone said.

Also it's funny how Kane is on pre-show and they announced it before his epic botched chokeslam.

Truly AWFUL Raw.

HHH's promo was just boring and took way too long. We got the idea after he initially quit the WWE, he could have sped it up a bit instead of speaking in that dull, drab voice. Heyman at least livened it up.

Big Show / Ace as I mentioned after it happened was truly one of the worst segments i've ever seen and can at least remember in my time watching wrestling.

John Cena / Ace was also truly, truly awful. Cena back to his comedic worst.

No surprise that two of the worst things on Raw involved Johnny Ace.

Only real highlight of the show was Orton/Jericho but that's the usually case with Orton, so no real surprises.

What is the deal with RAW lately? Seems like post Extreme Rules the post WM rot has truely set in and WWE creative have dropped the ball. I don't really know what has changed, no Rock or Brock but other than that nothing else is really different. Too much focus on Johnny Ace and HHH in the non wrestling roles could be part of it.

 

[Dale]

Wouldn't surprise me if it's because of the short turn over to the next PPV and them thinking it's not gonna do any decent buys so they've just thrown together all sorts of matches with absolute ZERO buildup like the WWE Championship of all things.

 

[AZUCAR!]

bring back Hawkins & Reks!

Did you not watch NXT last week? Johnny Ace re-hired them as Security for NXT

 

[Trending Worldwide]

I personally loved the Cena/Ace promo.. childish humor is funny every now and again...

as for HHH, It could have went quicker... But all in all I like the direction.

And for the Big slow, come on! He even gets fired in slow motion....

 

[Deezy]

Show/Johnny was too long, like Avengers long, but not good.

Forced chuckles out of the announce just further makes the terrible jokes even worse.

And too much Johnny shit, and made it pretty obvs for another Show turn and he helps Johnny win.

Why Del Rio Missed Raw
As seen last night, Alberto Del Rio did not appear on Raw, but he will be appearing at the Smackdown tapings tonight. Del Rio was flying back to the U.S. from a weekend promotional tour in Japan, which is why he wasn't able to appear on Raw last night.

Del Rio filled in for Rey Mysterio on the tour, who was unable to travel due to his current WWE suspension.

Lol I didn't really notice he was gone.
