A good opening segment that put the spotlight on the Elimination Chamber match,.

Daniel Bryan vs. Christian.
Christian Attacked Bryan From Behind Does This Suggest a heel Turn.
Good Match as always from theses two.

Daniel Bryan vs. Kane.
Was this set up to remove Daniel Bryan From The Chamber?

Santino Marella (w/Emma) vs. Fandango (w/Summer Rae).
What The Fuck IS This mickey mouse shit. Emma deserves alot more that she is getting. You are ruining her you twats (wwe)

Mark Henry vs. Roman Reigns (w/Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose).
I fully expected reigns to win but i dint expect quite the squash match that it was.

After the match,
The Wyatts Cut a great promo as usual and made there way to the ring. But backed off at the last minute. Sunday Should Be Intresting.

Cody Rhodes and Goldust were backstage playing with a WWE Stack Down toy. Bad News Barrett entered the room and kicked the toys over...

Jack Swagger (w/Zeb Colter) vs. Kofi Kingston.
The Want To Push Cesaro so they push swagger that makes no sense.

Intercontinental Champion Big E vs. Drew McIntyre and Jinder Mahal in a handicap match.
Big E Showed is power here in a big way be interesting to see what happens Sunday

John Cena vs. Cesaro (w/Zeb Colter, Jack Swagger).
Easily the best match of the night and cena got new moves lol.

The Wyatt Family vs. Sin Cara and Los Matadores (w/El Torito).
I would like to see the wyatts against more meaningful opponents like Sheamus and Co

Bill Gunn (w/Road Dogg) vs. Jey Uso (w/Jimmy Uso).
Unfortunatley they focused more on the commentary than the match.

Randy Orton vs. Sheamus in a non-title match.
shamus and orton was beating the hell out of Each other. Orton would have lost again but shield interfeared and a brawl insued.

7/10

Opening segment. Nice to have a change if only for a little while. Sadly it became the usual "I'm going to win at the PPV" shit.

Christian vs Bryan was very old school. Christian did a great job working the arm/shoulder area of Bryan and Bryan sold the injury well. Great unique roll up from Bryan to win.

Kane vs Bryan wasn't really necessary, but it worked with the storyline. I think we'll see these two going at it at Mania.

Fandango vs Santino. The less said about this the better. Feel bad for both guys having shit gimmicks. They're both decent fighters.

Henry vs Roman was decent enough. Love seeing Mark paying homage to Junkyard Dog with the headbutt's. Roman looking really strong right now and I hope he gets pushed big time over the next year or so.

The face off between The Shield and The Wyatt Family was awesome again. All six guys are playing their part well in this feud.

Swagger and Kofi wasn't anything to rave about. No talking points really.

Drew looked really impressive in the handicap match. I'd love to know what he's done wrong to go from being The Chosen One to The Jobber One. Great talent, not being used to anywhere near his full potential. Big E impressive as well. Zeb great on the mic at ringside as usual.

Cesaro and Cena had by far the match of the night. The best match Cena has had on Raw in years. Didn't understand the logic in him winning though.

Wyatt's against Los Matadores and Hunicara. Not quite a squash match, but not far off being one. Hunicara looked impressive.

Didn't care about Jey Uso vs Billy Gunn. At least he's not shitting himself this week I guess. I'm hoping to see The Uso's beating the Old Age Pensioners on Sunday.

The main event was OK. The brawl afterwards was fucking brilliant. Full credit to the person who decided to have the brawl still going as the show went off the air.

Raw rating for this week is a solid 8/10

A non-Raw related note, just want to say R.I.P to Nelson Frazier - A.K.A Viscera/Mabel/Big Daddy V.
