WWE RAW had some important matches this week. In the main event bout between AJ Styles, Drew McIntyre, Riddle, all three men tried to clinch the final spot in RAW's side of the Men's Money in the Bank ladder match. (Riddle was competing on Randy Orton’s behalf.)

The match offered fans plenty of exciting action. Riddle was injured during the contest, but he returned to the ring for the conclusion of the contest. He hit Styles with an RKO, but he failed to pick up the victory because Omos pulled his partner away.

In the end, McIntyre ultimately dropped Riddle with a Claymore to earn the win. It was good to see Omos protect his partner from taking the pin, but it's just as fair to question why the giant didn't help The Phenomenal One secure the pinfall.

Omos could have gotten involved in the contest more often without causing a disqualification. With the relaxed rules of the triple threat contest, he could have flattened Riddle and McIntyre in order to aid Styles in his quest to win the bout.

The least Omos could have done was break up the final pin to keep the match going so Styles would have had another chance to win the bout. On the other hand, WWE could have had the referee eject Omos early in the match to remove him from the equation. Instead, his presence made the finish even more questionable.
