#5 Raw ends with a bang

The week before this, Monday Night Raw ended with a bland confrontation between the Authority, Ronda Rousey and Kurt Angle. Therefore, fans were clamouring for WWE to pull off a different conclusion to the broadcast that leaves many cliff-hangers which generates excitement for the upcoming episode of Raw next week.

Instead, what the WWE Universe actually got was a rocky promo from Paul Heyman addressing Roman Reigns words against his client.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

While the company did a solid job of selling Brocks Lesnar's absence, his somewhat unyielding hold on the Universal Title and his uninterested attitude with regards to the fans, the entire segment was a mistake.

Heyman and Reigns distastefully repeated the points that the WWE Universe has heard a thousand times before lead to a monotonous ending of the show. Alternatively, WWE could’ve added another significant dimension to the feud.

Whether that dimension would’ve been Braun Strowman addressing his attack on Reigns at the Elimination Chamber PPV and making it clear he wants one final shot against Lesnar or WWE could’ve had Lesnar surprisingly beatdown Reigns even though Heyman said that “the beast” wasn’t at the broadcast.

WWE needed to do something that kept the momentum of Reigns solid promo last week and by having Reigns left with nothing to do this week as Lesnar was nowhere to be seen, they risk Roman losing some of that momentum.
