The Authority Makes A Statement To Brie Bella
Triple H makes an incredible statement about his wife, talking about how broken she feels and how she wants to mend the bridge between the two parties. This prompts Chris Jericho to come out. Jericho says he has a song for Stephanie and sings Cops song. This upsets Stephanie even more and Triple H cuts the crowd off with a fake laugh. He says this is 2014 and orange is the new black. He jabs at Triple H’s nose and then asks why Triple H did not go to the police station with her. He hits his famous line from a decade ago and is cut off by Triple H. Jericho says he wants Bray Wyatt tonight, but Triple H says he has to wait to SummerSlam. Seth Rollins attacks Jericho and they will face off later tonight.
I do not think there is anybody better at drawing a heel reaction from a crowd like Triple H. He is old school when he talks, easily getting the crowd to hate him. The promo was really good. Jericho coming out was a surprise and I was cool with it. He can only do so much with Bray Wyatt on a week to week basis. A promo separate from them will only keep the feud fresh.
As for Brie, let her return next week with her husband. They MUST have Triple H and Daniel Bryan in their corners so the match seems bigger and more important. This would be the icing on the cake for me to make it even better. (Written in real time of Raw)
*The rest of the night’s happenings are at the end of the article.
The Uso’s and Dolph Ziggler defeated The Miz and Rybaxel
Jimmy kicks off the action with targeting Axel. He hits a baseball slide to the outside and Jey flies into Ryback. Ziggler punches Miz away and the heels retreat to their side of the ring. Big E, Xavier Woods and Kofi come out to check out the action. Miz is in the ring working over Jey Uso and all three men get the offense going. Quick tags and more work on their opponent isolate Jey. Ziggler and Ryback get the hot tags. Ziggler hits a splash into the corner which is followed by a neckbreaker. Ziggler rolls through and is able to hit a DDT for a two count. The tag champions make waste of Axel with a few body dives over the top. Miz catches Jimmy on the rope and he goes for Ziggler. Ryback catches Ziggler, but Ziggler hits ZigZag for the win.
Solid match between 6 guys who were able to keep a fast pace match. I was really entertained, even though it still showcased the tag team division being extremely weak. Rybaxel? Really? Are the next opponents for The Uso’s? God, I hope not. This also confirms that Ziggler vs. Miz is on the books. Sign me up for that!
R-Truth defeated Bo Dallas
The streak is over. Bo Dallas loses to R-Truth. Yes, he rolled him up and picked up a win. I do not understand this at all. I know that they need Dallas to lose, so fans don’t cheer him on a weekly basis. He showed aggression and intensity after the match, something we have not seen since he left NXT. WWE messed up. They should have let Dallas lose to real competition, someone that fans care about. How will he rebound?
