Title This: WWE Raw Reaction November 4th, 2013

November 5, 2013

The Main Events

Randy Orton defeated Big E Langston to begin the second hour of WWE Raw. Like Harper, I was impressed with Langston once again. He is not your typical big guy. He adds speed with his incredible size and stature. He is not the tallest guy in the WWE, but that hardly matters when he has pretty much everything else. Langston took over offensively when he clotheslined Orton and hit a belly-to-belly suplex. He would follow up with a diving splash for a near fall. Langston clotheslines Orton to set him up for the finisher but Orton floats over and counters with a RKO for the win. This tested Langston against the WWE Champion. He certainly passed the test. I just wonder what match he is put in at Survivor Series. I could see him in a team to face off against The Shield and potentially Kane. I want to see 4-4 or 5-5 matches, not all 3-3 ones.

Grade: B+

Big Show comes out and has his job back. The board of directors basically told Triple H and Stephanie that they did not want a lawsuit. Big Show looks happy and wants a WWE Championship match against Randy Orton at Survivor Series. Triple H gives that to him and The Shield comes down. We go to a commercial break. Yes, this was a major mistake from WWE. I am not sure what was supposed to happen, but it was out of sync and very repetitive. The night ended when Orton and The Shield attacked Big Show. He would be powerbomed through the annouce table. Why wouldn't someone come help Show? I did not particularily like the ending because it was sloppy and very illogical. Big Show vs. Orton will not sell a ton of tickets. WWE will need to build an interesting and very strong undercard to make this event special.

Grade: C
