10 Things We Learned From WWE Raw (May 29)

10. TV Time

Heels be heelin'. Monday Night Raw kicked off with a segment that took three charismatic villains and apparently sought to deconstruct just everything about them in a vacuum between the opening to Miz TV and The Hardy Boyz and Dean Ambrose picking up a win in the impromptu match that followed.

Everybody knows the script by now. Miz brought out Sheamus and Cesaro as his guests, and since all heels and faces are always friends regardless of how recently they've turned, the trio got on famously (and unconvincingly), sharing an embittered hatred of the respective champions they're set to do battle with this Sunday.

To be fair to 'The Celtic Warrior', he's been in tremendous form as an "I told you so" heel since the duo snapped on Matt and Jeff after yet another defeat, but it's the backwards thinking mentality that engulfs the present day product that has triggered this recent restart.

Only by losing every single time, have the heels somehow been allowed to gain any momentum, as Michael Cole would like to say. As characters, their work has been stellar, but the Hardy Boyz win every time. Along with Ambrose, they were victorious yet again here!

Sheamus, Cesaro and The Miz all spout off like winners, but the constant losses simply undercut the verbiage, rather than make it comically delusional
