3 Hilarious botches you missed this week on Raw (July 8th, 2019)

Extreme Rules is Sunday night and the final build-up for the WWE Raw roster took place live from Newark, New Jersey and saw Baron Corbin and Lacey Evans send quite a solid message to Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins ahead of their "Winners Take All" showdown.

Rey Mysterio returned to the ring, only to be stopped in his tracks by Bobby Lashley who seemingly sent Mysterio back onto the sidelines when he easily defeated him and then threw him at three referees.

Raw was another interesting episode that saw more matches announced for Extreme Rules as well as Paul Heyman seemingly teasing the return of Brock Lesnar, but even though it was another stacked episode of Raw, there were still a number of botchy moments throughout and here are the ones that we spotted.

In the latest WWE NEWS, Bobby Lashley returned to Raw this week, just days after he was put through the stage by Braun Strowman. Lashley has quickly recovered and took on Rey Mysterio this week when he answered his open challenge. As part of this week's show, a Last Man Standing Match was announced between Strowman and Lashley for this weekend at Extreme Rules.

Lashley wanted to send a message to Strowman, who reportedly suffered a separated pelvis and suspected ruptured spleen last week, but when he got on the mic, Lashley once again made a mistake.

Lashley wanted to point out that he was the only man standing last week and that on Sunday night he would be the Last Man Standing, but he botched his lines and actually went with "first man" before he started again and corrected himself.

#2 No Way Jose messed up

Cesaro vs No Way Jose was not one of Raw's highlights

No Way Jose is one of the talents currently pushing for a chance on WWE Raw, but when he was chosen this week to exact some revenge on Cesaro for a beat down as part of last week's show, he wasn't able to make it count.

Before the match even started, Jose got stuck trying to jump out of the ring and then had to be caught by Cesaro who made it seem as though he was going for a move rather than helping him land on his feet.

The match ended with Jose tapping to the Sharpshooter, but after the bell rang Cesaro then stood up and fell over. The crowd was dead throughout the short match since it was seen as one of Raw's lowest points, despite having a legitimate reason for taking place.

#1 Botched springboard clothesline

Cedric Alexander wasn't able to help Roman Reigns to victory on Monday Night Raw
Ad

Shane McMahon was given the chance to choose Roman Reigns' tag team partner this week on Monday Night Raw and he thought that he had found the worst possible teammate in a janitor that obviously had an injured leg.

The janitor was allowed to wear a mask so that the WWE Universe didn't see his face, but it was made clear throughout that this wasn't a normal tag team partner. After he was accidentally tagged into the match, the moveset revealed that it was Cedric Alexander before he went for a springboard clothesline that almost completely missed Drew McIntyre because he was too far away.

Alexander was a nice reveal but it was another shocking main event match on Raw with numerous botches, but this was the one that stood out above all the rest.
