WWE Monday Night Raw January 30, 2017 Results and Review Taz Debut and More

Samoa Joe Channeling Tazz
The night after the Royal Rumble had a lot of things that could’ve gone right. But it also had a lot to make up for since the internet wrestling community was really upset about how it all went down. That being said, consider that Laredo, Texas had a pretty crappy Raw. There was a lot more talking than you would expect, and it was painfully obvious that the WWE is not going to shift away from that format of constant talking. Whatever the case may be, let’s discuss the night in the only way I know how, cynical.

WWE Monday Night Raw January 30, 2017 Review


Sami Zayn defeated Chris Jericho in a non title match


The opening match of the night came after a lot of talk, which I didn’t care for. Whatever the case may be, Chris Jericho came out to take on Sami Zayn, which was a good overall match. It’s funny, because Zayn gets these great wins against small guys, then gets obliterated against bigger dudes. Not only that, he’s constantly doing good work, and is made to look like an idiot backstage. Oh well. This match was good, but not perfect in any way.

Tony Nese defeated Mustafa Ali


Another mat based classic. I wonder why the WWE won’t just let these guys turn it on. They can go, and they can do a lot more than head locks and boredom. Nese was asked a few pointed questions by Ausin Airies and that was the end. Nese may be getting a title shot in the near future.

Neville got beat down by Rich Swann. I didn’t care.

Brown Shoeman defeated Kevin Owens via DQ


Brown Shoeman got a title shot against Kevin Owens, but guess what? The BIG DOG came running down, with music and everything. Owens was selling from the night before, taped up, and limping to the ring. Meanwhile Roman Reigns was looking like he didn’t have a match last night, going through Strowman with relative ease. Owens won thanks to DQ, but that’s that. I am not looking forward to seeing Shoeman buried, but you will see it happen since you can’t really put the BIG DOG down, can you? I hate Roman Reigns sometimes.

Nia Jax defeated Sasha Banks via match stoppage


Sasha Banks has been demoted to the internet. She got beat down by Jax, and the ref stopped the match. Oh well. Banks needs to take some time off if you ask me. Jax is on a collision course to the title, and Charlotte will have to do a lot more than she’s been doing to get a big win.

Enzo Amore and Big Cass defeated Rusev and Jingle My Balls in a Tornado Tag Team Match


Comedy act aside, Amore and Cass do well together. Rusev and Jingle My Balls did ok, but this was a throwaway match with no major title picture contension. I didn’t hate it, but I didn’t love it either.

Bayley, Cesaro and Sheamus defeated Charlotte, and The Club Sandwich Boys


This was a boring match, simple as that. Boring and boring, with Bayley winning after a suplex. I guess it’s a lot easier to defeat Charlotte on Raw, eh?

Taz debuted to choke out Seth Rollins


Triple H cut the world’s most boring promo, and that brought out Seth Rollins. However, Rollins didn’t get his wish of fighting HHH, he instead met face to face against Taz! That’s right TAZ! The human suplex machine! I kid. It was Samoa Joe. However, all I could think of was Scott Steiner. “HE’S FAT!” Oh well. I guess Rollins will have to face Joe, beat him, or rather bury him, then get HHH at mania. Only to win, and then what? Get a title shot? Who cares. Rollins is wasted here.

Brock Lesnar and Goldberg will face off at Mania. Heyman tried his best to do a good promo, but it sucked. I can’t stand the guy. I really hope that Goldberg and Lesnar get another 1 minute match. I don’t want to see them wrestle a long winded affair, I just don’t.
