Isenberg Reacts: WWE RAW “Bears and Boredom Trumped Brock’s Brawl”

The A-Lister gets a D-List Script

Good lord. Tonight was a really bad night for The Miz and everything associated with him. First off, Dean Ambrose suffered a loss against Elias Samson. Samson used a distraction from The Miz to pick up the win. Later in the night, Dean Ambrose needed to find a partner. He found a bear. Yep, you read that correctly. The Miz teamed with a bear and Dean Ambrose ended up revealing it to be him after Miz attacked another bear. Make sense? I did not think so. Miz gets hit with a Dirty Deeds and the bear head is placed on him.

Whoever came up with this garbage really needs to connect with the crowd more. Either a 6 year old child or a grandfather booked this nonsense. It was really painful to watch and gave me no interest in seeing this feud continue. The Miz deserves better and Dean Ambrose needs to stop being booked like he belongs in a children’s mental institution. When I look at this feud, the only positive tonight was Elias Samson. His gimmick is being booed 100 percent by the live crowd and the fans love to hate him. There are very few guys like him getting a reaction like this and he has not even done much to garner it. Maybe he is one of those rare breeds that garner natural heat?

Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson defeat Enzo and Cass

Anderson and Gallows took on an injured Cass and his buddy, Enzo Amore. The boys of The Club picked up a win, but they were not the main story after tonight. It is going to be focused around who attacked Cass and their is some jealously brewing when Big Show came out and Cass stared him down. Also, Enzo accused Big Show of possibly attacking Enzo and Big Show called his partner SAWFT. What all is happening is obvious, planting the seeds of Enzo and Big Cass splitting up.

Two points coming out of tonight:

1. Gallows and Anderson can be booked more effectively, but a year in and they have feuded with John Cena, worked with AJ Styles, The Uso’s and the most popular tag team in WWE history. Yes, I want more from them, but I am not going to complain about their run in year one in WWE. Tag Teams are NOT meant to be in a main event role every single week. They are never a primary focus heading into major Pay-Per-Views, love it or hate it. I would change some things about their booking, no doubt, but they are talented enough to stay around until their opportunity at the titles come again.

2. If Big Cass feuds with Big Show, I am going to be extremely upset. When the split happens, I want Cass to be treated like an important part on RAW. Do not let him work with Big Show, similar to what other guys in the past have done. I just do not think fans care enough to see Big Show in a primary feud on a weekly basis.

There needs to be things changed, but the main focus in this segment is Cass. Is he going to be a big star or will he fail without Enzo Amore? Also, be more creative in their attacks. It just looks sloppy and mismanaged.
