MARKED OUT! …checked out… RAW 08/05/13

MARK OUT: To temporarily forget that wrestling is fake because something cool happened. Urban Dictionary

After a few weeks off to guest host, WrestleREACTION (which you can watch here), “MARKED OUT! …checked out…” is BACK! Let’s get to it shall we?

DANIEL BRYAN’s “Corporate Makeover” Segment: MARKED OUT!

We were waiting to see what this segment was going to look like, and they didn’t make us wait. I thought the cheesy videos of Bryan getting his “makeover” were just cheeseball enough to be funny, and his interaction with Vince McMahon afterwards was great.

Didn’t expect to see Wade Barrett get his beard shaved, but that was a nice addition to the segment. Overall, Bryan did great and continued to get even MORE over with the fans…which I didn’t think was even possible. NEXT!

ROB VAN DAM def. *World Heavyweight Champion* ALBERTO DEL RIO: MARKED OUT!

RVD and Del Rio always deliver great matches when they’re in the ring together. Not to mention the DESTRUCTION of Ricardo Rodriguez…holy crap did that guy get his papers Monday night? If we do not see Rodriguez at SummerSlam interfere in Del Rio/Christian, I highly doubt we’ll EVER see him again.

CODY RHODES / DAMIEN SANDOW Segment: MARKED OUT!

Rhodes and Sandow did great work here…again. You probably wouldn’t recognize it though because the Green Bay crowd was terrible all night. They were silent for just about everything that wasn’t RVD, Daniel Bryan, John Cena, or “Chachalala.”

I hated that the briefcase was still wet though. “C’mon son!”

MARK HENRY def. RYBACK via Count-Out: …checked out…

I just don’t get what the WWE is doing with “Cryback.” They’re wasting a great opportunity to have “RyHack” be a MONSTER heel. The guy can wrestle when they let him, and he has a great look, so let him be a beast. Right now instead of a beast, he’s being a RyBeyotch. A monster like that…feigning injuries and wanting count-out losses…yeah…right. Next segment please…
