WWE Monday Night RAW: Live coverage and results - 17th February 2014

Hello ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to yet another fascinating episode of Monday Night RAW! With just six days to go for the Elimination Chamber PPV, we’re live tonight from Denver, Colorado.

This week’s show opened with Cole welcoming us to the show, and Cena came out to loud jeers! We then saw replays of Cena beating Orton last week on RAW. The crowd was firmly against Cena and Cena played up to the crowd. Cena then hyped up the Elimination Chamber PPV, and said the structure can end the career of a superstar. Cena said he was ready to sacrifice whatever it takes to main event WrestleMania 30 against Dave Batista. Loud “Cena sucks” chant started, and Cena said every participant in the chamber match has momentum except for the WWE World Heavyweight champion, Randy Orton. Cena mentioned Daniel Bryan, which led to big “Yes” chants. Cena said that this Sunday, there is a good chance that we’ll see a new WWE World Heavyweight champion, and that brought out Cesaro and Zeb Colter. Cesaro said that he will become the new face of the WWE and the face of America!

Cena then congratulated Cesaro for beating Orton, and said that on Sunday, the stakes are higher. Cena then told Cesaro he has never been in a chamber match, and that brought out Sheamus! Sheamus said that on Sunday, he will beat everyone else and that brought out Captain Charisma! Christian then warned Sheamus that on Sunday, he will beat him down! Randy Orton then came out to loud boos, and kissed up to The Authority. He said that he will beat every one of them at the Elimination Chamber PPV. Orton started mouthing off, and that brought out the final participant of the chamber match, Daniel Bryan to a humongous “Yes” chant by the Denver crowd! Bryan acknowledged the reaction from the live crowd, and put over the chamber match. Daniel Bryan then said that he will become the WWE World Heavyweight champion and led the crowd to yet another big “Yes” chant, which brought out the corporate monster, Kane!

The crowd started a big “You sold out” chant at Kane, as he said The Authority gave him one more chance to rectify his mistakes. He said he was in charge of the WWE tonight, and made Cesaro vs. John Cena and Christian vs. Daniel Bryan and Kane will be at ringside, and that match was up next!

Christian ambushed Bryan and started beating him around the ringside. The crowd started a big “Let’s go Bryan” chant as Christian rammed him against the steel steps!

Analysis: That was a good opening segment, hyping up the Elimination chamber match in six days. Daniel Bryan is undoubtedly the odds on favorite to win the chamber match, as the WWE would be looking to add him to the main event match at WrestleMania to calm the fans down. Three big matches were announced for the episode, which also gave away PPV caliber matches for free. Christian might have also just turned heel by attacking Bryan, but we’ll have to wait and see what happens next.
