The moment it was announced that Kofi and Rollins would be facing off with both titles on the line, the fear of the WWE Champion losing the title began creeping up. There was no way WWE was going to make Rollins lose to Kofi at this point.

Thankfully, that didn't end up happening. As Kofi and Rollins kicked off the high-stakes match, The Bar of all people interrupted the main event and the bout was thrown off. This bait and switch didn't impress the fans one bit and they booed the heck out of the segment.
Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.
This led to a tag team match between the villains and the two champions. A Curb-Stomp on Cesaro ended the match with both champions coming out on top to send the fans home happy.
Although the absence of star power hurt things a bit here on this edition of Raw, this is a good thing moving forward. Giving regular stars the center stage is the exact way to build them for the future.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
