Raw Recap: John Laurinaitis rewrites wrestling history to build feud with John Cena

May 07, 2012|By Adam Testa

** There wasn't much to the divas tag match where Divas Champion Layla and Kelly Kelly defeated Natalya and Maxine. It was announced, though, that Beth Phoenix will face Layla at Over the Limit for the title, so that should be a good match, if given proper time.

 

Match Rundown

Big Show d. Cody Rhodes by countout

Dolph Ziggler d. Kofi Kingston

Layla and Kelly Kelly d. Maxine and Natalya

Chris Jericho and Alberto Del Rio d. Randy Orton and Sheamus

Brodus Clay d. The Miz

Lord Tensai and Daniel Bryan d. CM Punk

 

My Take

Tonight was one of those odd episodes of WWE programming where nothing stood out as exceptional or painstakingly embarrassing. The divas match was an obvious lowpoint, whereas Heyman’s return was a highlight. In between, there was some decent action and good storyline advancement. Overall, I can’t complain about Raw, and I think WWE is on track for a good, short build to Over the Limit.
