Isenberg Reacts: WWE Raw Reaction “Reigns Rolls on Raw”

Roman Reigns vs. King Barrett

wwe rawIf Roman Reigns loses, he is out of the Money in the Bank Ladder Match. Roman and Barrett kick things off in the ring on Raw. Roman Reigns gets his offense going with some clothesline and then hits a side slam. He sends Barrett to the outside and throws him into the barricade. Barrett reverses the move and then kicks the steel steps into his leg. We head to a commercial break.

Barrett is in control back from break with a sleeper hold. A big boot and some chops gives Barrett a two count. He begins to choke him out with another sleeper hold, but Reigns punches out and fights back. He hits a Samoan Drop and follows up with some punches and a clothesline. Reigns gets hit with a Winds of Change and a close call. Barrett tunes up the Bullhammer, but Reigns ducks under and lifts him up with a slam to the mat. Both men get up and Reigns ducks a Bullhammer and hits a Spear for the win.

A really good match between King Barrett and Roman Reigns. Both men had a nice balance of offense, not overshadowing the other man. Barrett was not the best choice, especially since this is two night in a row (as King) where he suffers a loss. Roman Reigns looks good, really good. The speed is there and he adds small pieces to his offense to evolve more than just a few power moves.

Ryback defeated The Miz

Ryback puts his new championship on the line against a former champion. Before the match starts, The Big Show comes out to the ring. He hits a KO punch to The Miz and grabs a mic. Big Show says if anyone is going to beat Ryback, it is going to be him. He says he ain’t got nothing on him and walks out.

If Ryback wants to be cheered, Big Show is the right guy. Everyone hates Big Show. We get it. I just wish Ryback would be able to showcase how much better he has gotten in the ring. I feel that this will halt his progression and stunt his growth in the ring. Do we really want to see Big Show vs. Ryback? Could the crowd ultimately turn on both guys? It is very possible. I hope not, for Ryback’s sake.
