5 Ups And Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Nov 17th)
1. Worst. Captain. Ever.
You almost couldnt blame Dolph Zigger and Big Show if they didnt come down to rejoin Team Cena at the end of Raw. Both of them got decimated by Team Authority goons and Ziggler lost his Intercontinental Championship in the process while John Cena did nothing. Nothing. Fans even started chanting for Cena while Rusev and Mark Henry beat down Show and Sheamus, to no avail. Yes, the good guys had to go it alone so they could suffer a little and tease their exits from the match. But if were to believe that Cena is this goody-goody who is trying to rally a team, how is he so incredibly foolish that he listens to Triple H telling them that theyre going to pick them off one by one and then do nothing? Cena could have told his teammates that they needed to have each others back, but he chose to scout Ryback from a TV monitor in the back instead. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXI_9O2YhYc&list Why would anyone follow a guy who basically abandoned his responsibility as a leader like that?
