9/27/10 Raw

Hell in a Cell is this Sunday, plus this Monday's episode of Raw was taped, but it was still a fairly good show - better than last weeks at least. There actually were seven (7) matches on the card. Okay, one of those matches wasn't an actual match but Sheamus beating down The Great Khalie, but still. That was dubble the amount of matches we usually get on Raw and most of them were actually good too. Scary.

The Miz (with Alex Riley) started this weeks show. I like the Miz and I have nothing against Alex Riley, but I think both their ring attires look utterly dumb. Not that I particularly liked Miz's shiny black trunks, but they were leagues above his new blue/white stuff. The Miz doesn't look good in white and Riley reminds we of a schoolboy in his sports vest or whatever it is (I admit that my vocables left me on this awful piece of clothing).

Bryan's music is horrible. I said it and I mean it. The music by itself may not be bad, but (as I said on Youtube) in my opinion it absolutely doesn't fit as an entrance for a wrestler. The titantrons are meant to make wrestlers look like serious competitors, not living jokes (they're anyway, but that's another topic entirely).

Bryan Danielson Daniel Bryan can virtually sell everything. It looks like he is hurt even if the blow itself didn't look that impressive. Reminds me of Shawn Michaels a little.

LayCool came down for the Divas Battle Royal and everyone was like "Hell no, not the bitches again." The girls looked annoyed by their mere presence and I pity Lawler and Cole for having to endure them on commentary for the whole match. I liked how Natalya blow them a kiss from the ring later, though. Got get 'em, Nattie!

Did about every employee of WWE get a new haircut / new dye for this show? And why didn't I notice this last week? Michael Cole, Edge, John Cena, Sheamus, Justin Gabriel...

Cena will never lose to Nexus at Hell in a Cell. Won't happen. No way in hell. I'd freak out if he did, but it's simply not going to happen. It's the same as in the Cena vs. Edge match: Edge pinned Cena and I was like "Wtf Cena lost!?" ... then the GM restarted the match and Cena won. Cena can't lose (clean) - it's like the 1st commandment of wrestling in the WWE.

Goodbye Chris Jericho. See you again some time next year. Raw won't be the same without you.

Sign of the day
