I’m watching a different world just waiting for Elias. If they don’t bring him out tonight but got nikkas wrestling twice in one night :francis:

This match is a microcosm of everything that's wrong with RAW. That being, as good as it is at times, it should and could be so much better.

As good a team as Sheamus/Cesaro are, the brand's tag champions are comprised of a 4-time World Champion and a man who -- based solely on workrate -- is capable of giving you a Match of the Year candidate at any time (see: his match with Roman last week) and frankly should be a singles mega star.

Samoa Joe has clearly targeted Roman Reigns and the IC belt, yet Roman is nowhere to be found, and Joe has put in the kind of work where he should be dethroning Brock at the Rumble. But here he is being forced to meander about with Jason Jordan, who isn't working as they hoped despite an obvious template for success staring them in the face.

Seth and Jordan are wrestling twice in one night despite the amount of talent on the brand.

Dean, a former world champion and one of the most accomplished singles stars in recent memory, is kind of just going through the motions. Looks like his injury finally caught up to him.

Despite all of that, we saw a pretty good match involving talent that is not being maximized.
