Raw Reax - 10/19/2020

 Read on for my thoughts on last night's Raw.

- Fiend/Alexa/RETRIBUTION/Business:

Very interesting clash of characters.

That was pretty cool. I like the shades of gray in the characters.

- Riddle promo:

I like Riddle, but it's not a surprise WWE is struggling to utilize him effectively. Especially given how old the average audience is. 

- RETRIBUTION vs. Business:

This is pretty cool. Both sides have been built well.

WOW. A little surprised they lost. Match was good, though.

- Post-match:

WOW. Yeah, looks like they've moved on from RETRIBUTION.

- AJ promo:

So um any explanation for why these two are randomly together?

Honestly AJ vs. Seth could be a pretty good feud given AJ's religious upbringing.

Mostly solid.

- AJ vs. Riddle:

They're clearly invested in Jordan.

I like how these two work together.

Wow. I like this.

Good stuff. Obviously Jordan's the guy they want to build.

- Drew interview:

He has great fire. 

That was BADASS.

- Asuka vs. Lana:

Lana's not bad here.

WOW. They really showed Lana, huh?

- Post-match:

Haha it's like a competition to see how many scenarios they can come up with to destroy Lana.

So much for the singles and tag champions staying apart post-draft.

- Nia/Shayna/Dana/Mandy/Lacey/Peyton/Liv/Ruby:

I like this duo.

Wow yeah they really threw this together with little explanation.

- Nia/Shayna vs. Dana/Mandy vs. Lacey/Peyton vs. Liv/Ruby:

Flashy moves for the sake of them. 

This isn't awful. It's just not a great way to get so many characters over at once.

I liked that ending.

- Elias concert:

Pretty standard honestly.

- Miz/JoMo/Tucker:

This feud will go forever, I see.

The Draft basically just moved Raw feuds to Smackdown and vice versa. 

- Elias interview:

Kind of a rushed match, but that's the timeline they had.

- New Day/Sheamus:

It would not shock me at all if Big E did the same stuff he was doing but now just by himself.

- Kofi vs. Sheamus:

Their first singles match was in April 2010.

Good stuff here.

Solid work.

I like how they work together.

Pretty good! 

- Ali promo:

Haha wow it's like they brought back the hacker thing just to pretend this was the plan all along.

Honestly they've been pretty firmly established as a midcard group at this point.

- Business/Titus:

That was pretty based. Good to remind us they're not faces.

- Miz/JoMo/Tucker/Gordo:

PHEWWWW. This gimmick has really overstayed its welcome.

Poor Miz has fallen so far since being WWE Champion.

I feel sorry for Miz being stuck in this story.

- Miz/JoMo vs. Tucker/Gordo:

Nice work from the heels.

OK the Lucha House Party thing was pretty funny. 

Silly. 

- Post-match:

I don't blame Sonya for taking time off...

- Fun House:

This is a great switch for Alexa.

- Braun vs. Keith:

Keith facing a former WWE Champion in the main event of Raw?? WHAT A BURIAL!

I like this.

That was OK.

- Post-match:

Well this is continuing, I see.

- Orton/Drew:

Very cool stories of past HIACs.

I liked that overall. Should be a good end to the feud.

More wrestling coming up.
