10 Most Must-See Matches, Moments, And Segments From WWE This Week
10. Cesaro Continues His "Epic" Comeback
The Best-of-Seven series between Cesaro and Sheamus has not exactly garnered a plethora of compliments since it began on the SummerSlam Pre-Show, but it has at least provided a tangible reason for them to be wrestling each other so consistently.
That said, there is not a more uninspiring booking choice than having Sheamus go up 3-0; though logically designed to create drama for Cesaro's uphill climb, fans were either too hip to the game or simply not interested enough in the first place to care. The commentary team has tried to sell it as an "epic" comeback, but it has instead come across as a predictable slog that has left both men treading water for three weeks as we inched toward the inevitable conclusion of a seventh match.
Match 6, to the wrestlers' credit, was one of the more entertaining bouts of a series that has admittedly done well to create one, long-running story instead of a group of individual scraps with a scoreboard. Matches in previous weeks could have been skipped in favor of watching highlights, but this week's penultimate bout in the series is definitely worth a full-on look.
