WWE RAW: 2 Superstars who flopped and 4 who impressed – Big warning ahead of WrestleMania title match, former World Champion humiliated (Mar 15th, 2021)

#2 Flopped on WWE RAW: Jaxson Ryker

Jaxson Ryker would want to forget this match

This week on WWE RAW, Jaxson Ryker faced Damian Priest in a short singles match. Ryker was the first to land a blow, but Priest was quick to respond. The latter immediately hit his opponent with a devastating Broken Arrow to gain the right momentum. Priest then delivered Hit The Lights and followed it with a quick pin over Ryker. Both Bad Bunny and Elias were present at ringside throughout this encounter.

Following this match on WWE RAW, Elias tried to attack Bad Bunny and Damian Priest. He managed to lift Bad Bunny for an attack, but the latter escaped and punched Elias. Soon, Priest interfered and hit Elias with Hit The Lights as well. While Priest looked dominant in the squash match, it didn't bode well for Jaxson Ryker. The creative could have done a little more to make Ryker look strong while simultaneously ensuring that Priest's unbeaten run on the Red brand remains intact.

WWE doesn't want these wrestlers back - Find out now!

For a while, the creative teased a potential feud between Priest and Bad Bunny and Elias and Jaxson Ryker on WWE RAW. However, it now appears that they are slowly moving towards a storyline that will see Priest and Bad Bunny face The Miz and John Morrison. As for Elias and Ryker, we hope that they will be involved in a few good feuds that will help them establish a bigger threat in at least the tag team division of WWE RAW.
