5 Ups And 6 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Dec 1st)
2. Sweet Revenge
Last week, Big Show completed his 6,234th turn, once again becoming a bad guy. His comeuppance though, had to wait until this week. Show looked like he had escaped unscathed after laying out Erick Rowan in their match, but then he decided to jump John Cena, Dolph Ziggler and Ryback in the main event. Once Rowan joined the fray, it become clear that the foursome needed to extract a little revenge for Show nearly costing their Survivor Series team the match and their jobs. All four hit Big Show with their haymakers, laying him out to end Raw. At a time when the booking seems haphazard and incomplete, the fact that the writers took the time to close the loop and allow Team Cena to beat up the traitor was a really nice touch to close out the program. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyoeiJc86Bc
