The biggest winners and losers of last night's Raw (August 26)

Same old, same old.
Same old, same old.

Loser: The Miz

Absent a sudden, miraculous spurt to wind it down, The Miz probably won't look back on his 2019 as being a good year. After his lackluster feud with Shane McMahon, he's done nothing of note, now losing in the first round of the King of the Ring tournament to the manifestly inferior Baron Corbin, who was an abject failure as a main event performer in the spring and early summer.

It's hard to see where The Miz goes from here. He'll be on call to do whatever he needs to, but it probably won't be anything substantial.


Loser: The Raw Tag Team Division

The thrown together, random pairing of Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode defeated a plethora of other tag teams last night to challenge Braun Strowman and Seth Rollins at Clash of Champions. They just won with no build to their partnership.

Meanwhile, the other teams, including the previous champions in Gallows and Anderson, who have some beef with Strowman after last night, didn't emerge as the contenders to reclaim their lost crowns.

This sort of thing is why tag team wrestling is such a joke in WWE.
