#2. Becky Lynch takes a shot at Big E

Becky Lynch took her heel game up a notch on RAW last night, where she said that she hates Big E. The Man was involved in a backstage segment with Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods, where she praised their decision to remove the powerhouse from The New Day.

“You know what wasn’t a horrible idea? Getting rid of Big E. I hate that guy. Real sc**bag," Lynch said.

Big E was ousted from The New Day last year when he returned to make peace between Woods and Kingston. He has not been seen on WWE programming ever since.


#3. WWE legend sends a message to Liv Morgan

Liv Morgan looked set to be involved in a feud with Nikki Bella before she was ruled out due to an injury. While Nikki now has other plans at Evolution 2, she did not forget Morgan as she sent a message to the latter while posting a pic with her Daddy Dom.

Liv Morgan suffered an injury during her match against Kairi Sane on RAW. She was involved in multiple storylines before the setback.


#4. WWE star confirms retirement

Corey Graves officially announced his retirement from in-ring competition in 2014 due to health issues. The former NXT Tag Team Champion confirmed the same while calling the action on RAW last night:

"El Grande Americano has clearly gotten himself in phenomenal shape. He's been doing some different leg training, obviously some extensive stretching (...) Miracle of modern workouts. I'm retired. I don't work out anymore. But I imagine you do a couple of squats, maybe some ankle raises," Graves said.

Graves is currently a part of the RAW commentary team. He has been praised by fans and critics alike for his recent work.
