3 biggest things WWE made clear on RAW this week (29th July 2019)
It was the penultimate episode of the Raw before SummerSlam and the anticipation was pretty high. Following a great edition of RAW Reunion last week, the company certainly managed to continue the momentum. RAW produced an astounding episode with some imposing matches and segments.
The 24/7 Title changed hands as Maria Kanellis became the first pregnant champion. Apart from the 24/7 Title, the RAW Tag Team Championship also changed hands in a Triple Threat Match. Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson won the belts by defeating The Usos and The Revival. While Alexa Bliss failed to continue her match against Becky Lynch, the latter beat Nikki Cross.
Ricochet won a Gauntlet Match to become the number one contender for the AJ Styles' US title. The match between Dolph Ziggler and Seth Rollins was interfered by Brock Lesnar, who subsequently mauled the Beastslayer in the ring. The Beast Incarnate continued the vicious assault in the backstage area that ended up being one of the biggest highlights of the show. The Samoan Summit segment was cancelled as a massive brawl closed out the show.
It was a great show overall and here, we discuss three things that WWE made clear on RAW this week.
#3. The OC will rule RAW
A surprising tag team match took place on Raw this week. The Revival defended the tag team titles in a Triple Threat Tag Team Match against The Usos and Gallows & Anderson. Without a shadow of a doubt, it was a solid match and in the end, the straps changed hands, making Gallows and Anderson two-time RAW Tag Team Champions in the process.
Similar to the New Day, every OC member now holds a belt. While AJ Styles holds the United States Title, Gallows and Anderson are the new holders of the RAW Tag Team Titles. Following their association with the Phenomenal One, Gallows and Anderson are likely to get a significant push. The former NJPW standouts were neglected in the last couple of year, however, judging by the scenario this week, the OC will dominate the red brand soon.
