8 Ups And 6 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (May 2nd)
4. A Match Without Wrestling
Can you still call a match without more than three offensive moves a wrestling match? Sure, matches sometimes simply serve as a backdrop for an angle, but the bout between Goldust and Tyler Breeze was about as terrible of a match as you will see this year (unless Eva Marie and Rosa Mendes have a 10-minute contest).
The whole point of the match was that Goldust and R-Truth have found new tag team partners (Fandango and Breeze, respectively) and are making each other jealous that theyve moved on (no, seriously). So Goldust knocked Breeze down with a punch which Prince Pretty sold as if he had been shot and then pleaded with Truth for a good 30 seconds.
This actually repeated itself a couple times, with Breeze spending most of the match rolling around on the mat, selling a punch like he had been powerbombed through a stack of flaming tables. Breeze ultimately rolled up Goldust for the win, and to put this abomination to rest.
Sadly, the courtship of the Golden Truth will seemingly continue.
