I'm just a sick guy, I'm really just a dirty guy.


LAST WEEK ON RAW:
  • The show opens up with a 20-man battle royal for Dean Ambrose’s United States Championship. Ambrose and Sheamus are the final two, and Sheamus Brogue Kicks and eliminates Dean to become the new US Champion.
  • Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella are backstage and scared of Kane still. Stephanie McMahon comes in to tell Bryan that Kane is still angry. She leaves, but KANE’S MASK IS ON THE BACK OF THE DOOR???
  • Paul Heyman’s client Brock Lesnar conquered the Undertaker’s undefeated Streak at WrestleMania. Rob Van Dam beats Cesaro when Cesaro doesn’t stop punching RVD in the face. Good finish imo
  • Bray Wyatt and the Family come out to cut a promo. Bray doesn’t follow up on the goddamn voice modulated kid, which is disappointing. He then cuts a promo saying that he is for the WWE universe and everything he does is for them. Posters wonder if he’s turning face (he’s not).
  • Ryback defeats Cody Rhodes after Cody is distracted by Goldust on the outside.
  • Brie and Bryan are still backstage when the lights go out. KANE’S MASK IS ON THE LAMP???
  • Los Matadores and El Torito celebrate Cinco de Mayo! 3MB comes out to interrupt and tells the Matadores to speak English. The two stables brawl and Torito breaks a sombrero over Hornswoggle’s head.
  • Rusev, now without a first name and residing in Russia, defeats Black Guy #4, Kofi Kingston with the Putin Annex of Crimea.
  • WWE World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan faces off with Alberto Del Rio. A good match ends with a La Yestica into Yes Lock with Del Rio tapping. The Demon Kane’s fire goes off and Zack Ryder and Eve Brie and Bryan run backstage to their car. It doesn’t work and then Zack Ryder tries to change the tire for 20 minutes Daniel Bryan fixes it in 30 seconds. Suddenly Kane shows up and tries to take Eve Brie away from Ryder Bryan. Zack Ryder is then chokeslammed through the stage Daniel Bryan drives away with The Demon Kane still on the car, which knocks him out. Zack Ryder loses his United States Championship and is laughed at by everybody. Daniel Bryan then drives out of the arena.
  • In an Extreme Rules rematch, Bad News Barrett retains his IC Title with a Bad News Bullhammer.
  • There’s a techno remix of Mr. T’s HoF speech for Mother’s Day.
  • Adam Rose debuts, taking out Jack Swagger, dancing with the Rosebuds, and making fun of Zeb Colter.
  • Shield vs. Wyatts IV ends with Evolution interference distracting Roman Reigns long enough for Bray Wyatt to hit the Sister Abigail. After the match, Evolution attacks Shield and leaves them lying to end the show.



WHY YOU SHOULD WATCH RAW TONIGHT:

1. The Zack Ryder Daniel Bryan-The Demon Kane feud continues!
Why you should care: After defeating The Demon Kane at Extreme Rules, The Demon Kane is still out for revenge on former friend Daniel Bryan. Please go back to being friends, anyway.

2. Bray Wyatt will give a promo!
Why you should care: It will be a good promo. He will talks good.

3. The Shield! The Shield!
Why you should care: Still fighting with Evolution, they'll fight towards another good match. It will also be good!

4. John Cena!
Why you should care: John Cena

5. Hey, that New Japan/RoH show this weekend!
Why you should care: That's going to be a fun card!

DANIEL BRYAN INJURY

By Mike Johnson on 2014-05-12 18:56:15

The word making rounds backstage is that Daniel Bryan is dealing with some sort of neck issue that will keep him out of the ring on Raw tonight.

We'll have more as it's confirmed.

Sometimes I wonder if cruel chance isn't on Vince and Triple H's side in regards to who should be pushed. Concussion after they rapidly turn him back from the Wyatts, his dad dies after Wrestlemania out of nowhere, and now this.

Chance, it seems, like slow plodding hosses and dull wimpy champions.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
At least The Shield and the Wyatt family are being put over, and they are awesome. Poor Bryan, I just feel like this is all Vince and Triple H's master plan to bury his momentum ala Zack Ryder.

The Pre-Preshow is WCW Chi-Town Rumble. Ric Flair vs Ricky Steamboat for the world title. Pretty much owns. Steamboat totally nosold the effects of the Figure Four seconds after it's release after being in it for like 3+ minutes though. Kind of weird to see.

I loved the Midnights/Original Midnights 6-man because you get to see both Paul Heyman and Jim Cornette managing their asses off and rolling around on the ring swinging at each other

Then AGAIN I suppose if they want to put the belt on Batista so he can carry it around for Guardians of the Galaxy promotion, this seems like the best way to do it. Bryan doesn't look weak, he suffered an injury, they compensated.

Now, getting his heat back when he returns on the other hand...might be more tricky.

I liked how every time they cut to the shot of all the pre-show announcers, you could see some bit of Kofi's bright green pants flying through the air or getting tossed around.
