While this week’s RAW wasn’t too heavy on the drama, there was a beefy card that offered plenty of solid in-ring action.
Here’s our list of the superstars who dished out more damage than they absorbed.
5: Cody Rhodes: Back just a month after suffering a concussion, Rhodes was his solid self in the ring and won the match for his team with his trademark Crossroads Neckbreaker. Armed with a new mustache, the crowd got a kick out of it, but truth be told, his tag team with Damien Sandow is nothing to laugh at. Easily the best tag team, aside from Hell No, the Road Scholars are the real deal. Their appearance on Miz TV was interesting as well. Funny and witty as a heel, Rhodes may be looked at as the weaker link in the team, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
4: Sheamus: The guy still has plenty of detractors, but he continues to have some of the better matches on RAW every week. His win over Dolph Ziggler and the fact that he sold like crazy for a change, proves his star is on the rise.
3: Brad Maddox: The guy continues to make an impact and provide interesting segments. His fast count for Vikki Guerrero pushed AJ Lee over the edge. As a result, the former GM may have fallen over to the dark side after getting cheated courtesy of Guerrero and Maddox. Regardless, she’s as over as ever.
2: Antonio Cesaro: A huge win over Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston, Cesaro is on his way to earning a title shot very soon. At this point, who else can he beat?
1: The Shield: The trio’s promo proved they are the cool new faction in the company. While this may be an “off†pay per view for the company, but these guys will do their best to make it entertaining. Their interference in John Cena’s match with The Big Show only adds to the cool factor.
