BRM Reviews the 7/18/2011 Raw

[Big Red Machine]

OPENING SEGMENT- Good. Right down to business.

WWE TITLE TOURNAMENT FIRST ROUND MATCH: The Miz vs. Alex Riley- 5.25/10

Nice to see a hype package for a guy returning from injury. You don’t see those too often anymore.

WWE TITLE TOURNAMENT FIRST ROUND MATCH: R-Truth vs. Jack Swagger- 4.25/10 WAY too short.

WWE TITLE TOURNAMENT FIRST ROUND MATCH: Alberto Del Rio vs. Kofi Kingston- 5.5/10. Good finish, though. Now Del Rio can cash in on whoever wins the tournament right after the end of the finals.

WWE TITLE TOURNAMENT FIRST ROUND MATCH: Rey Mysterio vs. Dolph Ziggler (w/Vickie Guerrero)- 3.75/10 Way too short, and included the two most ridiculous 619 set ups in history. These are the sorts of things that just scream “CHOREOGRAPHED!” but aren’t cool enough to ignore (like a Tower of Doom spot).

7-ON-7 DIVAS TAG TEAM MATCH- DUD! What is the point of having them out there if 90% of them aren’t going to get into the match?

WWE TITLE TOURNAMENT SEMI-FINAL MATCH: The Miz vs. Kofi Kingston- 5/10

WWE TITLE TOURNAMENT SEMI-FINAL MATCH: Rey Mysterio vs. R-Truth- 6.75/10

CLOSING SEGMENT- WOW. That was amazingly well done.

it's just to remind you who is still with the company...but you go to see AJ, that should be good enough for you

[NWK]

HAHAHAHAHA! What did I tell you? I knew your mind would be blown! Also, I was impressed with the Truth/Swagger match, but I knew going in it wasn't going to be good, so I disagree with your rating based off of my own expectations. Other than that, good review though.

I'm now going to be keeping up with WWE again. MITB was awesome, and this Raw was also amazing.

That's once you get past the fact that the Green Bay crowd absolutely fucking no-sold that entire show.

Yeah. WWE needs to wait a while before going back there for a televised event.

Seeing Kaitlyn was good enough for me.

Not if she doesn't get to wrestle!

[KILLdozer]

that was a absolute crock,,"Oh we got a big fight here! Things are out of control already!"
then beth counters a strike from Rosa Mendez then glam slam..over,,,,I think Rosa is being really misused,,Ive got a feeling she could be an excellent manager,,I wouldnt have minded seeing her with del rio and ricardo as some kind of small Mexican group

del Rio doesn't need a chick with him, cuz he can get anyone he wants, better than Rosa for sure.

This. Having a chick wouldn't help his act at all. And he has Ricardo Rodriguez for the dog and pony show stuff.

I dont see whats so great about him really,,why is he being pushed to the top,,sure hes good on the ring and no problems in the ring but I still dont see the extra it factor or whatever

just look at that smile, that is why, it is his destiny

DON'T SEE IT? ARE YOU BLIND? Go back and watch his debut. There is only one way to describe it: Jericho-esque. Everything was done so perfectly... Just look at Del Rio when he wrestles. He just as this natural, arrogance that makes you want to wipe that obnoxious smirk right off of his face! And that wink... GRRRRR! It makes me so mad that I want to see a babyface kick his ass!

Either way, he still absolutely has it. Just watch his stuff. Watch his matches, but pay attention to the point where he isn't actually physically wrestling. AFTER he has hit a move. He is just brilliant.

[KILLdozer]

But I think my heart got grenched during the triple h -vince segment,,was good
