7 Ups & 5 Downs From WWE Raw (Oct 10)

4. Not Miz’s Balls And The Cake!

After hyping Miz’s birthday celebration, you’d think there’d be something decent to it. But you’d be wrong.

Raise your hand if you were shocked that Dexter Lumis (well, his head) was inside one of the presents. Now go sit in the corner.

This was an extremely predictable, paint-by-numbers segment, right down to Maryse getting awkwardly knocked into the cake and having it smeared all over her hair, face and dress. The only deviation from the norm was Lumis grabbing a serving knife and puncturing the two giant yoga balls with Miz’s face on them, deflating his metaphorical massive balls.

Otherwise, this was tremendously terrible and further evidence that this storyline is a steaming turd.
