I love elimination matches. Now, bring back the three way dance.

1. Sheamus beat Wade Barrett in 10:29. Fresh off of the beat the clock loss, I expected the match to open up with a lot of anger, but instead it was a series of lock ups. The match picked up speed halfway through and had some entertaining back and forth action. Sheamus hit a Brogue kick and accorded the pinfall.
WWE aired a video for Raw Roulette on the live Raw from Vegas.

Really? You couldn't afford the IC champion even one victory over Sheamus?

Huh so the trend continues of whatever matches happen on raw/smackdown the same exact match happens again on the other brand.

At least the right person won that.

On one hand, I believe that a main eventer should go over a midcard champion, but on the other hand, I don't think the match should've been booked at all.
You had Wade Barrett doing nothing but beat midcarders when he didn't have a title? Why can't he do the same now that he does have a belt? Why not book Wade Barrett vs. Alex Riley, Brodus Clay, or Justin Gabriel, so that we can see Barrett as a dominant champion, and maybe showcase some guys who need TV time and build up? I have no interest in seeing Sheamus vs. Wade Barrett unless they have an actual feud or unless the Intercontinental Title is going to be a factor.
It's like they're just going to have Barrett competing in meaningless matches against the main event faces until it's time for him to drop the belt.

LOL, Sheamus got his win back, from a match where there was no winner.
And they wonder why no one can get over.

Yeah, it's a terrible idea making one of the favorites to win the Rumble look strong the show before

Yeah, it's a terrible idea making one of the favorites to win the Rumble look strong the show before It's not as bad as having one of your champions lose and come up short yet again against a top talent, furthering the gap between main event & mid-card. Especially when the guy who could've lost is not only a favorite in the Rumble, but has been practically a bulldozer for the past year. Thus not having much in the way of damage if he took one loss here. But whatever, people wonder why the IC title is meaningless these days.

Everyone looks good. Sheamus was probably going to win, but Barrett didn't lose. Inconclusive = future PPV matchup. Instead they blow it off the next TV show to make sure the "top" guy gets his win. It's stupid.

Punk came to the ring to address the events of Raw to a surprising amount of crowd support considering the heel angle. Punk's promo revolved around his future potential and his reign as champion. As he began to say that one thing can disrupt his potential the crowd erupted into "Rock" chants.
Heyman read the executive order from the WWE regarding the loss of the championship if The Shield gets involved. Punk called out The Shield and refused to leave until they come out.
All three members came out from the crowd and circled the ring where Punk stood armed with a chair. Punk ordered The Shield to stay out of his way. After a few tense stairs, The Shield left the ring and Punk continued his best in the world rant when The Rock's music hit.
The Rock wiped the floor with Punk on the mic and then left the ring. Punk picked the mic up again and started calling Sacramento trash. The Rock came back out. A fist fight broke out followed by a huge Rock Bottom. Sacramento has apparently gotten over the rock concert from 2003 because the ovation here was amazing.

How quickly we've lost all the good will from Barrett beating Orton, a bigger star than Sheamus, like.... last week.

I think most look at that victory and are more likely to attribute it to Orton having two strikes than the company having any big plans for Barrett.
