[2016-04-25-WWE-Raw] Sami Zayn vs Rusev

[GOTNW]

I really liked Rusev in this one, the way he carried himself, his clubbing blows, the way he'd use his forearms early on to either choke Zayn or get out of his headlock. I don't like the idea of him doing so many kicks, the Superkick looks great but I'd rather he just threw people around even more than did Spinning Heel Kick or whatever. His Gutwrench Suplexes and Fallaway Slam looked amazing. Zayn continues to look perfectly fine but albeit not terribly impressive on the main roster. The "pull the top rope so the heel falls out of the ring" spot is probably my least favourite transition and Zayn's headlock looked bad but outside of that I thought this was a surprisingly strong TV match. Crowd was shit and didn't do it justice as you'd expect. Five stars for Lana throwing shoes at Zayn after the match. ***
