[2015-01-05-WWE-Raw] Wade Barrett vs Dolph Ziggler

[Kronos]

This one starts out as a fun little quick TV match, with Barrett playing the large bully to Dolph's scrappy underdog. Wade dominates until Dolph gets a lucky pin. (by the way, it's interesting how the match is showing Barrett to be dominant, while Booker T spends the whole first fall talking about how Wade has never lived up to his potential)

After the match, Barrett throws a massive tantrum and beats the shit out of Dolph. Following said beating, Corporate!Kane comes out and declares the match to be 2/3 falls. Fittingly, Barrett wins the second fall in a matter of seconds.

 

"Look at how interesting and compelling this is!" Thanks, Bradshaw.

The third fall continues the Barrett dominance. Dolph gets a couple of shots in to signify that he's scrappy. I don't know how Dolph was booked in the months leading up, but I don't feel like he's particularly harmed here.

Enjoyable match that really puts Barrett over as a vicious monster. But please, why is Booker T on the announce table? He sucks so hard.
