The opening segment of WWE Raw was pretty much good. Elias kicked it off with a concert segment.
He can present it freshly every single time. The stand-off between Rollins and Elias was an obvious one after last week’s happening.
Good way to start off #RAW with Elias out right away. It’s yet another promo to start this show, but it feels fresh because Elias does it a little differently. There wasn’t much to it, but it wasn’t bad at all.

Jinder Mahal and Roman Reigns also joined the segment which makes sense. Currently, the creative team is using Reigns by Rollins to earn some cheers. The match was entertaining by all means.
Elias winning the match on WWE Raw makes sense. He needed it to keep the momentums by his side before the IC title match.
Nia Jax and Natalya was pretty dull. Didn’t need to go through a commercial break. Ending was what it was. The positives are Ronda Rousey was good on commentary and even better when she got in Nia Jax’ face. #RAW

The one-on-one match between Nia Jax and Ronda Rousey was pretty much dud. We have seen already enough of Rousey on the commentary table.
The match also witnessed the same tactics when Natalya suffered an injury. Rousey provided her backup hitting the ring. It created a short face-off against Nia Jax which was the only chilling moment of this contest on WWE Raw.
Sorry, I don’t care if I get killed in the comments for being negative. This was another train wreck of a segment with Lashley and Zayn. This is career killing stuff. What is the purpose of having Lashley on the roster? TNA booked him better. TNA!! Like… c’mon. Awful. #RAW

Bobby Lashley and Sami deserve a special mention for an awful booking again. WWE creative might be very confused about this particular feud. They are wasting these two talented wrestlers on a weekly basis.
This show is getting dumber and dumber by the moment. Bayley just enters a match because why not? If WWE conditions the audience to believe that nothing matters, like rules and match, how can anyone get invested in anything on the show? This has been happening for years. #RAW

A similar awkward thing happened when Alexa Bliss left the six-woman tag team contest on WWE Raw. Bayley entered the match out of nowhere just like that.
She also picked up the win hitting the Bayley-to-belly. It was not fair by any mean. WWE rulebook does not allow any such sudden inclusion in a match.
Really dull main event with an over-reliance of rest holds. The post-match stuff was really good as they attempted to take away the stench of that awful finish. Impressive Coup de Grace. #RAW

The main event of WWE Raw between Finn Balor and Kevin Owens was slightly good.
But it could have been far better. They have done some wonderful things in the past at NXT. The post-match antics were better than the match. It gave few momentums in favour of Finn Balor. He needed it pretty badly.
Overall, this was a pretty terrible effort from WWE. I don’t know if anyone else who watched noticed, but everyone seems to be dragging their feet. Not sure if that’s a symptom of the brutal tours they’ve had or lack of motivation. Either way, it makes for bad TV. #RAW
