Monday Night RAW - Review (11.03.2014)

“It’s good to have you home,” John Cena tells Hogan

Monday Night RAW opened with Hulk Hogan talking about WrestleMania and his matches against Randy Savage. He also says that there will be an Andre The Giant memorial trophy given to the Superstars who wins a battle royal match.

John Cena‘s music hits and he makes his way to the ring.

Cena says it’s damn good to have Hogan back in WWE. He talks about WrestleMania 3 and how he knew Hulkamania would live forever. Cena does a “whatcha gonna do…” and the fans boo. Cena says he’s going to be the first one to enter his name in the battle royal.

The lights go out, the lantern lights up and out comes The Wyatt Family.

Bray Wyatt sits in his favourite spot – the chair and begins to mock both Hogan and Cena. Bray says they are both liars and their foolish pride allows them to prey upon the weak and fill them with hope. Bray says hope is dead, as will be Cena’s legacy. Bray says if Cena looks down at him, he will see an enemy, if he looks up at him, he will see a friend. If he looks straight at him, he will see a God.

Bray holds his arms out. Cena says Bray talks some weird stuff. Cena says he sees a homeless man when he looks at Bray, not a God. Cena says he has 2 other bums with him and a rocking chair from Cracker Barrell. Cena tells Bray to prove that he is somebody.

Cena tells Hogan he might not be able to make that battle royal. Cena challenges Bray for WrestleMania XXX and says he will get the ass whooping of a lifetime. Bray says it’s all fun and games with Cena until it’s Cena caught in the spider web. Bray drops the mic and The Wyatt Family approaches the ring.

Match One: Eric Rowan vs. John Cena

Rowan takes control of Cena, and nails a pump-handle backbreaker for a two count. Hogan is at ringside to cheer on Cena while Harper and Wyatt look on from the ramp.

Rowan locks in a bearhug, and he throws Cena around the ring. Cena eventually powers out of the hold, but Rowan just throws him to the ground.

Cena ends up winning with a roll-up out of nowhere.

Winner: John Cena

John Cena

After the bell, Bray gets up from his chair and is very upset. Hogan celebrates with Cena and raises his arm in the ring. Bray sends Harper and Rowan to the ring.

Hogan and Cena get ready for a fight. Bray calls Rowan and Harper back off the apron. Hogan talks junk to Bray about Cena’s WrestleMania challenge. The Wyatts leave as Hogan and Cena celebrate to Hogan’s music.
