Match outcomes do not mean everything in WWE’s world of sports entertainment, but history has proven that a series of victories or defeats can help define certain Superstars’ legacies.

For example, regardless of what she does for the rest of her career, Asuka will go down in history as one of the top female Superstars of her generation due to her 914-day undefeated streak in NXT/WWE.

On the flip side, Superstars including Barry Horowitz and Curt Hawkins will always be remembered for being perennial losers in WWE over the course of several years.

Looking at the current RAW roster after the 2019 draft, it was noticeable that a few current Superstars have not won on the show in a very long time – or, in some cases, not at all.

With that in mind, let’s take a look at two red brand Superstars who have not won on RAW in over a decade, plus three Superstars who are still waiting for their first victory on Monday nights.


#5 Yet to win on RAW: Eric Young

It looked as though Eric Young could be a big success in WWE after becoming part of the dominant SAnitY faction with Killian Dain, Alexander Wolfe and Nikki Cross in NXT in 2016.

However, after the group moved to SmackDown without Cross in the 2018 Superstar Shake-Up, it quickly became apparent that they were not going to repeat their NXT success on WWE’s main roster.

The former NXT Tag Team Champions were hardly used on television during their one-year run on the blue brand, so it was hardly surprising that they went their separate ways after losing a 3-on-1 handicap match in embarrassing fashion against The Miz.

Young has been a member of the RAW roster since the 2019 Superstar Shake-Up took place after WrestleMania 35, but he has not won any of his three matches on the show over the last seven months.

His most recent defeat came in a one-on-one match against Aleister Black in October.

#4 No RAW win since 2008: Shelton Benjamin

Shelton Benjamin returned to WWE as a member of the SmackDown roster in 2017, so it is no surprise that he has not recorded a victory on RAW over the last two years.

His only matches on the red brand during that time came against Seth Rollins in March 2019 and Ricochet in October 2019, but he was unable to defeat either opponent.

Looking at his previous run in WWE, you have to go all the way back to March 2008 to find Benjamin’s most recent victory on RAW.

The unique match type saw the former Team Angle member join forces with 13 other Superstars (Bam Neely, Chavo Guerrero, CM Punk, Elijah Burke, John Morrison, Kane, Kofi Kingston, Matt Striker, Mike Knox, Nunzio, Stevie Richards, The Miz & Tommy Dreamer) to defeat Mr. Kennedy & Triple H in a 14-on-2 handicap match.

Prior to that, his most recent win took place in July 2007 when he teamed with Charlie Haas in a victory over Brian Kendrick & Paul London.

Moving forward, there are plenty of new opponents for Benjamin to face on RAW following his switch to the brand in the 2019 draft, so do not be surprised if he gets back to winning ways in the near future.

#3 Yet to win on RAW: Humberto Carrillo

New RAW recruit Humberto Carrillo was one of the standout names from the 2019 WWE draft.

Known for his work on 205 Live and NXT, the cruiserweight was chosen by RAW as the 13th pick in the third round of the draft, meaning he was selected earlier than established names including Erick Rowan, Dolph Ziggler, Samoa Joe, The Miz, King Corbin and Rey Mysterio.

Since his surprisingly high position – or low position, depending on how you look at it – in the draft, Carrillo has appeared regularly on RAW and he is currently involved in a United States Championship rivalry with AJ Styles.

After back-to-back losses against the red brand’s top two male Champions at the time (Universal Champion Seth Rollins and United States Champion Styles), Carrillo won a 20-man Battle Royal at Crown Jewel to earn an opportunity at Styles’ title later in the night.

The RAW newcomer was unable to pick up a win over “The Phenomenal One”, and he also lost a six-man tag team match alongside The Street Profits against all three members of The O.C. four days later on RAW.

There is no doubt that the former 205 Live Superstar will go on to win plenty of matches on Monday nights, but he still awaits his first victory since moving to the show.

#2 No RAW win since 2002: Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar burst onto the WWE scene in March 2002 and quickly established himself, in the words of Paul Heyman, as “The Next Big Thing” during his first four months on RAW.

He then switched over to SmackDown in July 2002, where he stayed until eventually departing the company in acrimonious circumstances in March 2004.

Since making his return to WWE in 2012, almost all of Lesnar’s matches have taken place at pay-per-views, with his recent nine-second win over Kofi Kingston on the first episode of SmackDown on FOX proving to be a rare exception.

Now that “The Beast” has moved back over to RAW with the WWE Championship following “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt’s Universal Championship triumph, there is an outside chance that we could see him compete on the red brand for the first time in over 17 years.

If that does happen, the match would be Lesnar’s first on RAW since he defeated Tommy Dreamer in a Singapore Cane match in July 2002.

Before that victory, the WWE Champion only competed in 11 other matches on Monday nights, most notably in April 2002 when he defeated Matt Hardy via TKO on his first match for the red brand.

#1 Yet to win on RAW: Carolina

Sin Cara’s last victory on RAW came in November 2016 when he teamed with Rich Swann to defeat Noam Dar and The Brian Kendrick. The masked Superstar then mostly competed on Main Event before having an injury-riddled two years on SmackDown.

Now that he is healthy again and back on RAW, the former Lucha Dragon has reignited his rivalry with Andrade and Zelina Vega. However, unlike in 2018, he has returned with somebody by his side to even up the numbers, Carolina.

Carolina, real name Catalina Garcia (hence the social media confusion about her WWE name), appeared at ringside when Sin Cara lost against Andrade on the October 28 episode of RAW.

One week later, she competed on RAW in a mixed tag team match with Sin Cara against Andrade and Vega, and the victory ended up going to Vega, who hit Carolina with a basement-rana to pick up a 1-2-3 for her team and record her first win on RAW in the process.

It is still early days in Carolina’s time on the main roster, of course, but the fact remains that she is the only female Superstar on the red brand who is yet to earn a victory on Monday nights.
