Match 1 – WWE RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch defeated Bianca Belair to retain
WWE RAW 01.11.2021 Results & Ratings
The match was booked for thirteen minutes and it was a very good match to kick things off for the night. It was not their best performance but it was a good match indeed. Becky won the match via roll up, so the feud might not end here.
Match 2 – Austin Theory defeated Rey Mysterio by DQ
The match was booked for over eight minutes and it was a good match. Good to see Rey Mysterio did not lose back to back matches against Austin Theory via pinfall. Dominik Mysterio hit Austin Theory from outside which led the match to disqualification.
Seth Rollins came out to the arena. He reminded that he defeated three former world Champions last week to earn his opportunity and he also said that he would take the WWE championship away from Big E.
Big E came out to the arena and argued with Rollins. Rollins reminded him of their recent history and he said he would win the title away from him. You also made fun of Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods. Big E dared him not to make fun of them and proposed their title match tonight. Rollins unaccepted and said he was not fully ready.
Kevin Owens came out to the arena. Owens said while everyone was the face of RAW, they forgot about him. He said he always gave his absolute best in the ring, so he was definitely a face of the promotion. He said since Rolling did not want to fight, he would like to face Big E for the first time. E accepted the challenge.
Match 3 – Carmella and Queen Zelina defeated Nikki ASH And Rhea Ripley in a non title match
The booking for the women’s Tag Team Championship has to be the worst since the very first day. Every single time it is the same story. Before winning the titles you win everything, as soon as you win the title you lose every single non title match. Nothing to talk about here, seriously.
Match 4 – Finn Balor defeated Chad Gable
The match was shot but it was fun to watch. It was quite predictable that Balor would not lose against Chad Gable. And that did not happen. Chad Gable performed a Superplex which Balor turned into a pin for the win.
Match 5 – The Dirty Dogs defeated The Street Profits
It was one of the better matches of the night at the match had been quite impressive. At the end of the match when Street Profits was in control, Omos interfered which distracted Montez Ford which helped Dolph Ziggler getting a victory over Ford.
Match 6 – Damian Priest defeated T Bar in a No Disqualification match
Arguably, this was the best match of the night. Both performers were really good. The match was White hardcore and it was fun. At the end it was a dominant victory for Damian Priest. He pinned T Bar with a Swinging Face First.
Match 7 – WWE Champion Big E defeated Kevin Owens
Owens needed to win this match, a dirty win for Owens could have make it a better storyline. But you know when WWE start to push someone, they make him/her unstoppable. Rollins hit E from outside and Owens tried to pin him. E reversed it and pinned Owens. Owens challenged Rollins in a match next week and apologized to E. E hit him with Big Ending not accepting the apology. Big E stood tall as this week’s RAW went off air.
Overall, it was a below average week of RAW where the matches might have been good but most of the feud build ups were poor. Owens might turn heel soon, he needed to win over E, it was a bad decision. There are other flaws as well. Women’s Tag Team Championship buildup was absolutely awful as well. We give it 2 stars out of 5.
