While Raw was disappointing, it had some good moments as well.

#3 Sasha cashes in her ticket to the rumble

The Raw Women's Title scene has freshened up.

Alexa Bliss debuted her new show this week on Raw, and for the fans that were expecting this to be the new Highlight Reel, well, one could say it was not that bad, as Bliss was entertaining in her role while her guest Ronda Rousey was not that convincing on the mic. While Rousey stills needs a lot of work on the mic, her promo was quite interesting, as she put over Sasha Banks big time.

And this prompted everyone's 'favourite' Nia Jax to come out and deliver another channel changing promo, Jax took Rousey's words as an offence as she feels she is so much better than Banks. This would prompt Banks to come out and request a match between the two of them to determine who will face Rousey for the title at the Royal Rumble. After a back and forth bout Banks picked up a hard-fought win.

Banks vs Rousey will certainly be a nice change of pace as superstars like Banks, Charlotte, and Becky Lynch are perfect opponents to carry Rousey to a great match, and at the Royal Rumble that would be the case as well.


#4 Seth 'freakin' Rollins is on fire

Rollins is certainly the man right now.

There are a few things that wrestling fans actually look forward to on Monday Night Raw, the first being Seth Rollins tearing it up in the ring, second is Seth Rollins being an absolute genius on the mic and the last thing to look forward to is Seth Rollins being Seth 'freakin' Rollins.

You get the point, Rollins is the only superstar on the red brand that seems to get better as each week passes, and this week he was truly the man of the moment. From beating the hell out of Bobby Lashley to start the show to then proceeding to steal the show with his performance in the six-man tag team match, and then taking Dean Ambrose to the limit in the main event, what cant this man do?

Rollins is truly WWE's best bet for Raw's bright future, and he should be the man to take on Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship.


#5 A great main event

The match these men should have contested at TLC.
The match these men should have contested at TLC.

This was the match that Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins needed to have at TLC 2018, as the boring snoozefest these two men had at the event destroyed their feud. But this second chance to craft something truly awesome was the right decision by WWE, as these men really crafted a hard-hitting affair.

From broken tables to flying ladders this match has some truly awesome moments, but it was ultimately ruined by Bobby Lashley costing Seth the chance to regain the IC Title. While it was a cheap decision, it did give fans some clue of the future of WWE's plans, as this could be Rollins wrapping up his feud with Ambrose and now he looks forward to bigger things.
