Bobby Lashley vs The Miz For The WWE Championship.
Before the encounter happened, Lashley spoke with Sarah Schreiber about his title win last week, saying that the era of the almighty begins.
Meanwhile, Miz is more than just unhappy. He was FURIOUS about the way he lost the WWE championship, calling it unfair.
With Sami Zayn, Braun Strowman and now Miz, questioning WWE's authority, they should definitely form a stable or something.
This bout lasted longer than it needed to be. Lashley retains because of course, he did.
Drew was about to give an ultimatum until Sheamus attacked him. A pissed off wanted Adam Pearce to book a NO DQ match between himself and the whitey. Peace gave that match a go.
Why repeat the storyline? Because, WWE got nothing to write about this week.
I'm hoping this is the blowoff of this rivalry but I can't trust WWE on fulfilling my hopes.
R Truth apologized to Braun Strowman and Strowman didn't want him to apologize but rather Shane McMahon.
Not gonna lie, this was a funny backstage bit. Speaking of which……...
Braun Strowman Demanded An Apology From Shane O.
Why? For basically treating him like crap according to the big man.
And out came Shane McMahon and he apologized to Braun Strowman.
To quote Bryon Saxton after that segment aired, "that's it?"
There was a segment between those two men later in the night and in it, Shane called Braun "stupid" in the weirdest of ways.
Monday Night RAW is so mediocre with their storytelling for the most part that I can't even react to certain segments with frustration like this.
Drew McIntyre vs Sheamus In A No Disqualifications Match.
This match RULEDUH. I have to give Sheamus props for delivering excellent matches as of late.
This is Sheamus' best run from an in-ring perspective.
Due to the brutal nature of this match, both men were out and the match ended in a no contest.
We're definitely getting a rematch at Fastlane. Please, credit me with this exclusive news.
Shelton Benjamin vs Xavier Woods.
Ya boys, The New Day, are getting a RAW tag team title match against The Hurt Business' Shelton Benjamin and Cedric Alexander.
I wouldn't be surprised if The New Day regained the titles because, Monday Night RAW, am I right?
Woods picked up the victory with an inside cradle. Cool.
Riddle vs SlapJack.
Ricky Bobb…….I mean, Riddle, took the W in an alright match.
Shayna Baszler And Nia Jax vs Naomi And Lana For The WWE Women's Tag Team Championship.
Who do you think won the match?
In case y'all want to know who won for some reason, Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax retained the titles thanks to some assistance from Carmella's former sommelier, Reggie (I know that's not what WWE calls him but I thought it was funny).
Charlotte Flair, Dana Brooke and Mandy Rose talked about how they deserve a RAW women's championship opportunity. Cool.
AJ Styles vs Randy Orton.
This match came about when AJ Styles made fun of what Randy's going through with The Fiend and Alexa Bliss in a backstage interview.
So, Orton heard the guy's jokes and decided to challenge him to a singles contest.
The match was fine. Bliss' woodo powers affected Randy Orton yet again and because of it, Styles won the match.
This storyline went from "it's so ridiculous, it's great" to "it's so Goddamn weird" and not in an " its good weird" or " its bad weird", it's just weird (so many "it's" in a short paragraph).
So, to recap for all of you slow mofos.
Like: Drew McIntyre vs Sheamus No DQ Match.
Didn't like: A whole lot of nothing.
