WWE RAW belonged to Riddle this week. There are only two reasons why he came up short in the main event match.
The first is so that Drew McIntyre, who can never challenge Bobby Lashley again, can cash in the contract in front of a live crowd to finally, finally get his due! The second is to sow dissent between Riddle and Randy Orton.
The sight of WWE RAW Superstar Riddle imitating the legendary Randy Orton was absolutely hilarious.
Remember when WWE RAW Superstar Asuka was the most protected person on the roster? This week, she was the recipient of the Doudrop effect, where she put over the promising young star.
The problem is with a depleted women's roster on WWE RAW. Due to the lack of women in the lower-mid card (someone like Lana could have taken the pin and it wouldn't have affected her position at all); Asuka is being used to put over talent. Not the right role at all.
