It's great that The Hurt Business has been made to look like a million bucks on WWE RAW week after week but if they're beating their prospective challengers every single week, who will step up to the next?

And the same argument holds true for the WWE RAW Tag Team Championships also. If Jeff Hardy is tapping so very easily, can we take him and Riddle seriously as contenders? Shouldn't they be working up the ranks, to the Champions?
AEW's ranking system makes a lot more sense in this regard than the haphazard way of making matches on WWE RAW. There is consolation in knowing that the company does believe in Bobby Lashley though. He's looked like an absolute monster.
