10 Booking Steps For WWE Raw (Feb 1)

9. Install Neville As Kalisto€™s Fast Lane Opponent

On Smackdown, Neville and Kalisto constructed a hotly-received match over the WWE United States Title. Fans were understandably enthused by what they witnessed during the bout, one which had an air of mid-1990's WCW Cruiserweight Title action about it. Indeed, this was akin to Rey Mysterio Jr vs. Billy Kidman on an episode of Monday Nitro. It bodes well for Kalisto that WWE officials recognise the kind of wrestler he's suited to working with. Yet another match against Alberto Del Rio may be pushing fan interest to breaking point, so it'd be cool to see someone fresh given an opportunity on the pay-per-view. Due to the fact the first scrap was so enjoyable, Neville vs. Kalisto could work again. Give these guys 10-15 minutes together and they'll entertain every time. The all-babyface situation could be a sleeper hit at Fast Lane, and it would be refreshingly devoid of any cheap heel tactics in the build up. Kalisto is the logical winner, because he really needs WWE to get behind him and show they have faith in his title run.
