5 botches and outrageous moments from WWE Raw (January 15, 2018)
Next week is the 25th anniversary of WWE Raw. It's a night that promises to display many faces tha we haven't seen in quite some time. However, we were treated to a huge return one week early as Seth Rollins brought back his formerly banned finishing move. Some of these legends will have a tough time bringing as many smiles to the fans' faces as that Curb Stomp to Finn Balor did. That was one of the outrageously good moments from last night's Raw, but not every moment featured in the following pages were positive. There were a few botches, and those lie ahead as well.
Braun Strowman proved that violence and rampant destruction is the best way to get what you want, The Revival introduced a philosophy that shouldn't be merely a gimmick and Enzo Amore had a moment of reflection with his stomach. All that and more is ahead, so let's kick it off by giving a menacing look towards Kevin Dunne or whoever it was ordering the plethora of camera cuts from the production team.
#5 Too many camera cuts
There is never anything wrong about Braun Strowman tipping over a multi-ton vehicle with his bare hands. After learning that he was fired by General Manager Kurt Angle, he went on a path of carnage that included this toss of a semi-truck. If one of his foes ever boards a passenger train or a jumbo jet, let's all hope that a camera is rolling... but only one camera.
The botch here is completely at the end of the person who is in charge of switching the cameras. There was a constant flipping back and forth between angles from what had to have been at least a dozen cameras. If the viewer is aware of the many camera cuts, then surely that means it's too much. It's bad enough to endure a cut literally every time there's a strike or impact inside of the ring, can we get a break outside of the ring?
