3 things WWE got right on this week's RAW and 2 things they got wrong

This week's episode of Monday Night RAW is done and dusted and it was truly one to remember. We saw a huge change in the authority of the red brand, as well as not one, but two highly entertaining title matches.

With TLC looming, the men and women of Team Red certainly wanted to make an impression, with Braun Strowman still being allowed his shot at Baron Corbin, the same man who cost him the Universal Championship at Crown Jewel in Riyadh, earlier this month.

Now on the road to Tables, Ladders, and Chairs, the pay per view is the last chance for the Superstars to dominate on pay per view in 2018, before the Royal Rumble next month and the road to WrestleMania 35.

Here are three things that the WWE got spot on, on the November 26, 2018 episode of RAW, as well as two things that could've been a whole lot better.

#3 Got It Right: TLC is back on!

Last week, a very real injury caused a change of plans of WWE TV.

After agreeing to Stephanie McMahon's demands before Survivor Series, Braun Strowman was promised a shot against Baron Corbin, with Corbin's role as RAW GM, and a shot at Universal Champion Brock Lesnar on the line.

That was until Strowman was attacked and busted open on RAW, leaving his future match against the Constable up in the air.

Fortunately, it was made clear this week that the match will still take place at TLC, which is a great start for Strowman, who is yet to be Universal Champion despite many chances.

Whilst I would like to see Corbin remain as General Manager, hopefully the Monster Among Men will seize his title shot at the pay per view.

#2 Got It Wrong: The IC Open Challenge

Don't get me wrong, I really liked this match. I enjoy any open challenge, as it gives the fans a chance to see a match they've never seen before.

The problem here, was that it was a match we'd seen before, a lot.

Dolph Ziggler answered the call, and whilst he and the Architect put on a great match, I would've preferred to have seen someone else.

This two afterall, feuded for the title over the summer, with the ShowOff winning the title from Rollins, before losing it back to him at Summerslam.

How much more exciting would it have been if someone like a Zack Ryder answered the call, with the story being him wanting to recapture the title he held for just one day.

Or maybe even an NXT star, hoping to make a big impression on the main roster.

#2 Got It Right: Jinder Mahal actually won a match

Mahal takes it to No Way Jose, gaining a surprise victory this week.

When Jinder Mahal won the WWE Championship in April 2017, fans were rightly shocked.

Many still remembered Mahal's time in 3MB, before being released in 2014 with no pomp and circumstance.

Despite some fans claiming the title run was bad, no-one could deny that it was a shocking upset in a company that has so often been criticized by those same fans for being predictable.

But in 2018, Mahal has become an afterthought, briefly holding the United States Championship, before moving to RAW.

This week though, Mahal got the victory over No Way Jose, perhaps not the biggest win of his career, but a win nonetheless.

Hopefully, this will be the start of something new for the Modern-Day Maharajah, who has been a reliable performer since his return.

#1 Got It Wrong: Still no Women's Tag Gold

Bayley and Sasha Banks continue to do very little this week on Monday Night RAW.

You ever feel like the WWE are just trolling us?

For months (if not years), fans have speculated about Women's Tag Team Championships, which were seemingly guaranteed when the company promised a huge announcement at Evolution.

The first-ever all-female WWE pay per view came and went though, with no signs of tag gold for the ladies.

This week on RAW, Alexa Bliss was named in charge of the women's division, and further pushed Bayley and Sasha Banks together, appearing in an open forum.

Fans may hope that this was the start of something new, but instead, it was just a chance for the Goddess' friends to lay a beat down on the babyfaces.

Hopefully, Bliss will introduce new women's tag titles during her time as an authority figure.

#1 Great matches all around

I have to say, after watching this week's RAW, that there were some really solid matches all around the show.

The Intercontinental Championship Open Challenge proved entertaining, and whilst I would've preferred a different opponent, Ziggler and Rollins have clear chemistry.

Baron Corbin and Drew Mcintyre took on Finn Balor in an impressive showing by all three men, with the Irishman coming up short against his two opponents.

The RAW Tag Title match between the AOP and Bobby Roode and Chad Gable certainly lived up to expectations, though a better finish wouldn't have hurt the match.

And like I said earlier, it's always good to see Mahal get a victory

Overall, there were some highly entertaining matches on RAW this week, and hopefully, this bodes well for next week, as another episode of Monday Night RAW will land on the road to TLC.
