3. More Of This Please
OK, hands up: Who thought that Sheamus and Cesaro stole the show Monday night? (Sorry Dolph.) The Swiss Superman and the Celtic Warrior went to war on Raw, hitting stiff European elbows and battling back and forth in their first-round match in the tournament. Cesaro is so ridiculously talented that of course he countered the Brogue Kick effortlessly into the Sharpshooter. Hurt his arm? No worries, Cesaro can just switch to his left arm for Euro elbows. The only downsides to this match was seeing the Money in the Bank briefcase holder losing so quickly, and knowing that Cesaro is being fed to Roman Reigns next week on his likely march to the finals. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YX_mBr7TYLM But seeing this match made one want to see them feud over something, perhaps Sheamus MITB briefcase. Why not? Its been a while since the briefcase itself was put up for grabs.
