John Cena vs Dolph Ziggler, RAW 1/15 (Steel Cage Match)

This wasn't awful, but it was a pretty bog standard WWE cage match, and that's not something to get excited about. It was also easily the weakest match these two have had together. Like most WWE cage matches, most of it was just a tired contest to see who could run away from their opponent the quickest. There were some small highlights, such as Dolph's outstanding counter to the STF into the Sleeper, and the spot with Cena carrying him on his back up to the second rope before falling backwards, but that was about it. Oh, and the HUGE DDT of course. As much as Ziggler looked great here (stiff offence, good timing), this was also everything everyone hates about Cena. Not just the tired-to-the-point-of-parody comeback sequences, but the absolutely atrocious finish. What a steaming pile that was. WWE seem to be going out of their way to make it clear that even though Dolph got one win over Cena and can be competitive with him, Cena can still beat him and his whole posse with one hand tied behind his back.

AJ is also just awful at this point, a complete waste who takes all of the wrestler's heat and makes herself the focus. Get the fuck out.
