Isenberg Reacts: WWE Raw “Garbage Finish To Average Night”

Roman Reigns vs. Big Show

wwe rawRoman Reigns unloads with some right hands. Big Show takes him down with a spear and gets a two count. Big Show continued the assault with a body slam and then steps on his chest. More shots and more stepping on Reigns gives Show the massive upper hand. He applies a bear hug and the pace has really slowed down. Roman tries to create separation with multiple elbows to his head and then hits a few clotheslines to knock him off his feet. Reigns hits a Samoan Drop and then sets up for a Superman Punch.

Big Show blocks it and sends Reigns to the outside. They head to the outside and Show hits a thrust kick. Big Show uses the steps and gets disqualified. He tosses Reigns back into the ring and Show follows him in. Show tries to get the steps once more, but Reigns counters with a spear.

Another very average segment. Let’s be honest with ourselves here and say that no Big Show match will ever be “great.” The segment just continues to add pieces to the feud between Reigns and Big Show. Big Show dominated the match, but Reigns stands tall. Like usual, WWE wants to protect Roman Reigns and still finds value in feuds with Big Show beneficial to the young guys. Say what you want, but Big Show is a good person for Roman Reigns to look strong against. That is what it is all about right now for him.

Paige Turns Face

Nattie battles fast and furious with strikes to Nikki’s face. Note: Paige comes out and Paige drives Brie into the barricade. This distracts Nikki and Natalya pins the Divas Champion. Paige comes into the ring and gets attacked by Nikki. Paige hits a big kick and takes down the champion. She yells about this being her house. Paige turns face and is on the side of Nattie.

This was a step in the right direction. Paige is the best Diva on the roster and needs to be pushed to the spot that is left vacant since the departure of AJ Lee. She gets such a natural reaction from the crowd and the respect of her abilities inside and outside of the ring is seen by how appreciative people are to see her. PAIGE=MONEY. I will also give props to Nikki Bella. She is looking really good in the ring and has quietly gotten better and better as the months go on with her getting regular wrestling on television.

Luke Harper defeated Erick Rowan

The lost men of WWE have a really meaningless match that had two referees. Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury help out Luke Harper and he picks up the win.  All this tells me is that WWE has NOTHING FOR THEM. Luke Harper deserves much more. I would rather see The Wyatt Family still together. None of them have been really great since the split.
