WWE RAW Review

Tonight’s episode of WWE RAW featured a few interesting events as the build to TLC continues. To help you digest the episode, check out our five takeaways from the latest episode that showcased the red brand in our WWE RAW review for the November 26, 2018 episode.

Where Are The Babyfaces?baron corbin

The opening segment saw the trio of Baron Corbin, Bobby Lashley, and Drew McIntyre once again attack a helpless babyface. It was a three-on-one assault on Elias, who got beat up almost as bad as Braun Strowman did last week. So, why didn’t any babyfaces come out to even the field? It makes the entire locker room of babyfaces look like cowards when they don’t try to help the downtrodden.

The same can be said for the main event that saw Finn Bálor get beaten up by the trio. What a mess. There is nobody worth rooting for.

Assistant Bliss

Considering Alexa Bliss is currently recovering from a concussion and can’t wrestle, it’s a brilliant move to make her the assistant to Baron Corbin. This allows her to use her greatest strength, her promos, while out of action, and will keep her a constant presence on television. Plus, once she’s cleared to compete again she can quickly get into a high-profile feud. This is a win-win for the company.

Open Challenge Is A Dud

I’m really not sure WWE could have chosen a more disappointing match for the open challenge. Ziggler is a great performer, but this is a match we’ve seen over a dozen times this year. This should’ve been an opportunity to see something fresh or to elevate a 205 Live talent like Mustafa Ali or Cedric Alexander. Instead, it was more of the same old, same old.

Drake Maverick Pissed On A Robe

How can anyone watch WWE’s weekly programming, and then complain about my writing?

Authors of Pain should be portrayed as a serious team. Two brutes with real fighting experience that are absolutely massive. How do you mess that up? Well, apparently, it’s by introducing a urine gimmick. This is awful.

So Many Meaningless Segments

From a forgettable match between Jinder Mahal and No Way Jose to an overly long Ronda Rousey segment that saw nothing really happen, RAW was filled with so many boring segments tonight. I don’t get how they can script so many words yet not move a single storyline forward in a meaningful way. This show is extremely difficult to watch at times, and tonight showed exactly why.
