RAW's main event was a mixed tag team match with Drew McIntyre and Asuka taking on their challengers, Dolph Ziggler and Sasha Banks. Dolph Ziggler has a lot of work to do to prove he's a menace on RAW, and he did a little last night, but the real story was between Asuka and Sasha Banks.

Sasha Banks took the Asuka Lock and reversed it into a pin, taking revenge for her loss to the now-champion on RAW over two years ago.

While one normally doesn't like champions taking non-title losses like this, it ultimately means that Asuka will be fine at Extreme Rules. Meanwhile, Sasha Banks will launch herself into the long-awaited feud with Bayley.

After finally getting a clean win over Charlotte on last week's RAW, this was a bit disappointing for the champion, but it's not a devastating loss. WWE has repeatedly proven it can't be creative when it comes to building challengers. As far as that annoying habit goes, this instance was a lot more innocuous than usual.
