Big Show vs. Rusev
Okay, so, we can all agree that the soldier thing from Raw was a big misstep, right? Good. Now, I get what they wanted to do. They wanted to make Rusev a monster heel, and Big Show the big heroic babyface. They needed to undo a few weeks of Big Show and Mark Henry acting like big bully heels, inadvertently turning Rusev into a sympathetic underdog babyface.
I’m not expecting much from this match. Big Show towers over Rusev, and outweighs him to an obvious degree. It will prevent Rusev from doing a good amount of his typical power offense. I can’t imagine anyone coming out looking better than they did going in. And when that happens, everyone loses.
I’ll be angry if: Big Show wins. Rusev looks like a chump.
I’ll keep my cool if: Rusev dominates. Rusev looks good in victory. Rusev comes out looking better than he did going in. Rusev finally challenges for the US title.
What I’m expecting: Tons of focus on the planted soldier, until Rusev wins with the Accolade. WWE teases whatever feud is next for Rusev.
