WWE Raw 8/29

Overview:
Triple H, roars out in the arena to make his point swift. He announces the brands are not technically existing anymore, making Raw and Smackdown Supershows. Then he jumps to the whole issue with Nash and Punk, where Punk interrupts as soon as possible. Eventually this all leads to Nash's entrance which is the NWO Theme, as we learn he was signed to WWE. Then Punk and Nash argue about leading to Triple H making a match at Night of Champions for them to face each other breaking the meaning of Night of Champions. Endding the promo, Orton makes his entrance as we get a upcoming promo for Orton vs Dolph Ziggler.

Randy Orton and Dolph Ziggler, they tie it up and brawl about. The match goes great leading to several counters, and brawling outside the ring. Orton and Ziggler really get the match going, with Orton hitting free fall drop Neckbreaker, and Superplex. While Ziggler, got a Fameasser in and countered the Punt with a Superkick. The match ended with Orton hitting a DDT, Ziggler locking in the Sleeper followed by Orton spinning out into an amazing RKO. Along with that Jack Swagger, watching on.

Following the match, John Cena comes down to the ring and talks about what he'll do Alberto Del Rio. He eventually, lead Cena saying "If you want some come get some!" That leading to Mark Henry coming out to set up more "Supershow-ness" and Henry goes on about he'll face who ever wins the Cage match. After that statement Christian, interrupts while Cena goes to insult them leading to a brawl that makes Sheamus come to Cena's save. Ah what an amazing Team, the Red Ranger and Green Ranger!!! Hint, Hint: I'm buying their shirts soon! Henry and Christian bail from the ring, as John Lauriniatis is confronted by Triple H.

The next match on the card is CM Punk vs the Miz, before the match Miz goes on about Punk and his recent Pipebombs. This week, Punk believes he's a Green Ranger too, while he mocked Miz...lol! They tie it up, with Punk taking the lead. They brawl in the ring facing off with their styles, Miz takes down Punk. For the next minutes following Miz, dominates the match hitting a few of his signature moves. Eventually Punk reverses Miz and takes back the match. Follow Punk hitting a Savage Elbow Drop, and going for the GTS, R-Truth hits the ring leading to a DQ-Win. Miz and R-Truth beat down Punk as Nash comes down to the ring to hit a JackKnife Powerbomb.

Match number 3 is Sin Cara against Jack Swagger. As we all know Sin Cara is going to win cause he makes people job to him. Anyways during the match Jack, grounds Sin Cara and Vickie Guerrero comes down to ringside. That leads Dolph to also come down to the ring and help cost Jack his match while aruging with Vickie. Heck the rivalry over victory is boring and stupid the only good thing out of this is Ziggler either turns solo and becomes WWE Champion or turns face!

Our next match on the card features the new Tag Team Champions Kofi Kingston and Evan Bourne in rematch with Otunga and McGillicuty. We find out Kingston and Bourne, team's name is Air Boom....I just want to say it but I don't want to offensive! Well the match sucks, cause Otunga and McGillicuty do nothing. The end result is Air Boom retaining the Championships. Following the match Otunga attacks Jerry "the King" Lawler, I guess Otunga wasn't happy with the insulting him or his wife.

The Divas' match of the night was Kelly Kelly against Nikki Bella or Brie, I don't know whose who. It's hard to tell them apart unless you see the tattoos which they love to hide. Kelly dominates one of them as the girls hit Twin Magic and gets the win over Kelly Kelly. While Beth Phoenix and Natalya trash Kelly Kelly backstage.

As the Main Event starts, Henry and Christian make their entrances first while a commerical break occurs. Sheamus and John Cena, make their entrances with the crowd exploding for them. Sheamus starts the match and overpowers Christian leading to Mark Henry tagging in. Henry and Christian dominate Sheamus for most of the match, leading to Cena getting tagged in. Cena locks a STF on Christian, while Henry breaks the hold as Sheamus and him slip the fight outside. Christian recovers and lands a Spears, Cena while trying to get the pinfall. Cena breaks out and sends Christian into the Brogue Kick from Sheamus then into the Additude Adjustment. The night ends with us hearing about Triple H facing CM Punk at Night of Champions while Cena and Sheamus stand in the ring together in victory.

Review:
Since the Brand Extension is pretty much dead for now this makes everything amazing. The rosters being combined together gives us better matches, and possible rivalries. The first Raw Supershow, had a good start with the promos and matches. The Orton/Ziggler match went fast pace and the moves made played out great. The RKO finish on Ziggler was a great impact finish. Now jumping straight to Miz/Punk, the match actually had a good start and a mildly great presentation for the continuation, however the end result sucked quite a bit. The DQ finished suck but was predicted, at least Nash coming down to add insult to injury was good. Following that match Raw sucked until the Main Event, the tag team was good, I think it just had the right crowd to support it. The end to the match was my favorite part a Brogue Kick right into the Additude Adjustment, that's just pure awesome-sauce! As a result of the end to the Brand Extension and great presentation of the matches I look forward to tomorrow's SuperSmackDown. So to rate this I say it's 4-Star Raw!
