[2018-01-22-WWE-Raw] The Miz vs Roman Reigns

[Maciej]

For the most part, this is an ok match with Roman and Miz and the Miztourage doing more or less what you would expect, which are all things I like. It's noteworthy, though, because heels cheating is basically always done in dramatic irony these days, with the ref and/or opponent blind but the audience in on it and protesting loudly. So, while I know that the finish here, where nobody realizes that the cheating happened until afterwards, is for sure not the first of its kind, it really feels fresh and elevates this match to something easily recommendable. ***1/2

This felt a little like a rote Good WWE TV Match to me, moreso than the previous one where Roman got the belt. Still, the crowd was hot for it and the misdirection on the turnbuckle spot was great. If you watch this, check out The Miz's money entrance as well. He's incredible.
