What is similar between the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal, The Greatest Royal Rumble, The Women's Battle Royal at WrestleMania and the 'Beat The Clock' challenge on this week's show? The winner may feel proud for the time being, but it doesn't mean much over the long haul.
I wish that the match had been made with some stakes in mind to make the contest a little more watchable. Unfortunately, it was just a throwaway segment with no real stakes or any rewards for the winner.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.
If WWE does not care enough to tell us a story for the match, why should we care about watching the contest unfold on our television screens? I don't think anyone was really invested in the contest that kicked off RAW this week.
It was more of a 'watch the clock' challenge to see when the segment ends!
