BRM Reviews the 5/6/2014 Main Event
Posted: May 7th, '14, 12:46
JACK SWAGGER vs. DOPLH ZIGGLER- 6.5/10
Zeb was on commentary and kicked tons of ass.
I was enjoying this until Adam Rose & pals showed up and ruined what seemed to be on track to be an awesome match with a sh*tty finish. Both Swagger and Ziggler seemed to have been down in the ring for about a fifty-count.
You’re already getting the storyline over by having Zeb talk about it. You don’t need to have Rose on here at all, much less have him come out and be a jerk by costing Swagger the match without any provocation whatsoever!
Anyway, Rose uses the promise of women to get Dolph to dance with him and his group. I did appreciate Dolph’s dance of choice being a Flair strut, though.
TAMINA SNUKA & FOX-ANA vs. NATALYA & THE FUNKADACTYLS- 4/10
They did this to put over the events of last week’s Total Divas, which is a show that everyone knows does not occur in real time… so why would they be fighting about it now, many months later… especially when they have been on TV together between the time Total Divas was taped and right now and have not had any problems at all.
KANE VS. DRAGON VIDEO PACKAGE- The announcers described this as “straight out of a horror movie” and “Kane’s haunting of Daniel Bryan.” These are things that SHOULD NEVER BE SAID! EVER! Especially the “straight out of a horror movie” line. At best you are point out ot your audience that your storyline is painfully cliché, and is a situation that could never happen in real life. That is the BEST thing it could do for you. SO WHY DO IT?!
CURTIS AXEL (w/Ryback) vs. GOLDUST (w/Cody Rhodes)- 5/10
I have no desire to see these teams near each other ever again.
LEGENDS HOUSE COMMERCIAL- KENNY KING SIGHTING!
Also… if I were the women at that Chippendale’s, I would demand a refund. I know that’s exactly how I would feel if I went to a strip club and they gave me a bunch of seventy year-old grandmas instead of hot young twenty-somethings.
JOHN CENA PROMO- a good promo, but he didn’t talk about the thing that I think most of us wanted him to, which was Bray using children as human shields.
Overall, a bad episode of Main Event.
