WWE Raw November 21st: Analysing and grading each segment

Sami Zayn vs. Braun Strowman and Cruiserweight Triple Threat:

This feud looks to have been re-introduced which is a smart decision from WWE

Grade for Zayn vs. Strowman: 8/10

This was a great booking decision from WWE management, as they successfully portrayed Strowman as a monster while keeping Zayn as the never-say-die underdog. Strowman attacked Zayn from behind before he got a chance to fight back, and Strowman fed off of Zayn’s underdog aura by decimating him.

Zayn will receive a fair rematch in the next few weeks, as this feud looks to have been re-introduced, which is a smart choice by WWE. Overall, a strong segment that saw Zayn and Strowman both successfully portrayed, with Zayn set to seek revenge in the coming weeks.

Grade for Cruiserweight Triple Threat: 7/10

This was over before it started, and the high stakes of the winner facing Brian Kendrick on 205 Live for the championship, did little to add to this match. The three competitors (not even Perkins) have not developed character yet, and this led to another quiet spell for the crowd.

Fans didn’t seem to care about the Cruiserweight Championship either, which is a scary thought. Hopefully 205 Live will inject some life into the division, as the matches have a filler feel right now on Raw. Still, it was nice to see Swann pick up a deserved victory, and this was a decent match for what it was.
