PWP Nation’s Eron Ramadanov breaks down this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw and reveals what we learned from the broadcast as we lead into WWE Fastlane.
Two weeks after WWE Royal Rumble, WWE has the daunting task of trying to keep people and fans invested and interested in the product on a weekly basis. So much so, they have to find a way to keep you, the viewer, invested in the show for three hours, every single Monday; it also doesn’t help that their roster is banged up with injuries.
On the February 1st, 2016 edition of Monday Night Raw, we saw the progression of the Brock Lesnar vs. Dean Ambrose vs. Roman Reigns storyline heading into WWE Fastlane, which was the main focal point of the show.
So, with Monday’s show, let’s dive into what we learned from the broadcast:
50/50 booking reigns supreme
Ugh… where do I start?
So last week (1/25/16), we saw Kevin Owens vs. Dolph Ziggler in a singles match, where Kevin Owens walked out victorious. Now, this week, we saw the 5,000th encounter between these two men in a singles match, but this time, Ziggler beat Owens.
In a world where NO ONE gets over, add Kevin Owens to that list. Ziggler has been a long standing member in this club, but Owens, Owens has been someone who has, for a while now, avoided it like the plague, as WWE for a short period of time treated him like someone special. Glad to see that’s over.
Welcome to the “Even Steven” booking club, Mr. Owens.
