Alberto Del Rio and Sheamus met in a Last Man Standing match for the United States Championship. Obviously, we all knew that Del Rio wouldn't walk away as Champion, but these two have great chemistry and put on another very good match. No clue why the stipulation was added, but it made for a new dynamic between the two that we had never seen before.
The WWE is trying very hard to make the Bella Twins into rebels as Nikki Bella was placed in a ridiculous six on one handicap match against the rest of the Total Divas. Yes, including Rosa Mendes. I know a lot of people hate Total Divas, but I watch it with my girlfriend and adding Mendes brings nothing to the table. Jojo was replaced by Summer Rae and Summer they barely had time to feature the existing girls. Adding one that nobody cares about won't help. Also, I have no idea what the WWE is doing with Summer Rae. On one show she's a face, on one she's a heel. Cameron never showed up for the match as she is still having issues with her former Funkadactyl partner Naomi. Not to continue to pick on her, but Mendes did a really weird thing as she walked to the ring. No clue what it was.
Damien Sandow interrupted the Highlight Reel with Bret Hart, by showing up as Shawn Michaels. Sandow was a bit impressive as HBK but this impersonator thing is still not something I want to see from him. I miss when he first debuted in 2012. Jericho insults Sandow, who responded with "I'm sorry that you forgot to pay the light bill on your jacket" which was a hoot. Bret busted out a Sharpshooter and Chris Jericho marked like he was a kid again.
Sting took to Twitter to post an image saying 7-14-14. People believe that it will lead to his first ever appearance on Monday Night Raw. I think it would be cool to see, but I only ever wanted to see Sting vs. The Undertaker, and after seeing Undertaker at WrestleMania XXX, this has lost its appeal. People aren't getting their hopes up too high after the tweet as it might just be something related to WWE 2K15.
WrestleMania Rewind, which has been hit or miss as a program on the WWE Network, hit last night. It focused on CM Punk and his two Money in the Bank victories but it was so strange to see a focus on Punk. Just the other day, the WWE did a "By the Numbers" video for Money in the Bank and conveniently left off the only two time winner. Yet last night, an entire hour was dedicated to people talking up CM Punk and having nothing but good things to say. I wish there was more actual documentary to this though, as having to put two matches on took up most of the time.
Overall, Tuesday is always a fun night for the WWE Network and last night was no different. To any readers, you'll be seeing a new review up later tonight and tomorrow is "Top Ten Thursday" still. Any requests would be greatly appreciated.
