7 Ups And 7 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Feb 22)

5. This Takes The Cake

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYptbVZqfz4 A terrible segment gets a terrible pun. Can we all agree now that the Goldust/R-Truth segments solely exist to entertain Vince McMahon? They€™re not putting two of the longest-tenured wrestlers on the roster in a better position to succeed. They€™re not making fans want to see them win the WWE Tag Team Championships. And most importantly, they€™re not entertaining to many who are watching these vignettes. Monday, Goldust baked a cake for R-Truth to apologize for costing Truth his PPV math the night before. Truth said he was too big of a man to smash the cake in his face, then quickly return to do just that. Hilarious. Twenty years ago, Goldust was battling Triple H in the WWF midcard. Today, Helmsley is holding his 14th world title and Goldust is trying desperately to tag with a guy who has an imaginary friend. Just sayin€™.
