Title This: WWE Raw Reaction January 13th, 2014

January 14, 2014

The Main Events

WWE Raw Reaction The Shield defeated CM Punk and The New Age Outlaws.

The obvious is happening right in front of our eyes. Billy Gunn and Road Dogg left Punk out to dry on Raw, which tells me this is the first step into seeing the build for Punk vs. Triple H at WrestleMania. We have seen this match before on a smaller stage, so what will they be fighting for? I think that there needs to be something on the line. If it is Punk being represented by Vince, (which I do not know how WWE will make that happen) WWE will have plenty of time to figure it out. Royal Rumble gives WWE more time to hit a reset button or to alter plans. Everything can change in a week notice, but this is pretty much etched in stone.

Score: 7/10

Daniel Bryan is Back

After losing twice to Jimmy and Jey Uso, Daniel Bryan was extremely frustrated. Bray Wyatt tries to calm him down at the end of the night, but to no avail. Daniel Bryan attacks Wyatt and takes off his jacket. He knocks Luke and Erick off the cage. Bryan, with the crowd going absolutely CRAZY, hits a running knee. This ends the night on a positive note.

Was it too soon? Why did he join anyways? Is Kane secretly involved with helping Bryan? These three questions have been flooding my Twitter and emails and I love it. In my opinion, yes it was too soon to separate from the Wyatt Family. Two weeks is nothing in the WWE these days, but how can you ignore the crowd? How can you NOT give the crowd what they want? Daniel Bryan needs to become WWE Champion at WrestleMania. When we feel like there might not be much left for him backstage, Bryan shows everyone in charge that he is HUGE and will be a fan favorite no matter what is thrown at him. He needs the gold.

Score: 8/10

WWE Raw Score: 6.5/10
