The things to take away from this broadcast are:
- They are really making a big push for Survivor Series.
- Rusev is now a jobber.
Last week he was fodder for Goldberg. This week he lost to Sami Zayn (rather easily). Now Zayn will challenge Dolph Ziggler for the IC Title at survivor Series.
- R-Truth is an idiot.
Golden Truth is not on the Survivor Series team because of R-Truth. Truth traded away their spot to Primo and Epico for a time share. Later, Golden Truth lost a match to get the spot back.
- The Tag Team Survivor Series Team may be the most stable of ALL of RAW’s team.
- Bayley is the next major contender for the Woman’s title.
The woman’s team is not getting along. Charlotte’s still calls Bayley the weak link. Only problem is, Bayley pinned Charlotte in a tag match.
- Goldberg v Lesnar is such a big deal, neither guy could be on RAW.
Video Packages. Video Packages! Yeah, RAW Production team!
This whole show had one thing going for it: Focus.
It was a focused RAW with reasons for everything that happened, which is more than can be said for the previous months. That focus was squarely on Survivor Series. This actually felt like a Go Home edition of RAW, but that is next week.
That is the really good news. The bad news that it was still an average edition of RAW.
The Highlight of the Night was the RAW debut of Noam Dar. What a feeling it had to be for this young man, debuting in his home country, in his home town and to a massive ovation – easily the biggest of the night. Yes his team lost the match, but he one-upped his tag partner Kendrick (who was pinned).
A sort of lackluster ending to the main event, basically designed to build the coming KO/Jericho split.
FINAL THOUGHTS:
‘Can’t we all just get along?’
Or maybe just have an original thought? I mean the story for all three survivor teams is the same. No one can get along, and they are all fighting each other in matches two weeks from Survivor Series. Just lame.
RATING: 5
