6 Ups & 5 Downs From WWE Raw (Aug 9)
4. TikTok Savior
Oh boy, we’re getting more Reggie on our TV, aren’t we?
Leave it to WWE to stumble a** backwards into something they couldn’t script, and then still know that they’ll screw it up somehow. WWE announced that a TikTok of Reggie’s leap over the top rope before his match had somehow garnered 33 million views, a staggering number that ensures that the company keeps Reggie on our TV for at least a few more weeks.
In the meantime, we were treated to Akira Tozawa and R-Truth sneaking up on Reggie in disguise backstage, only for the champ to leap from atop a stack of cases to the floor to avoid them.
Just keep in mind if you’re tired of seeing Reggie in a few weeks or a couple of months: If you’re one of those 33 million TikTok viewers, you’re part of the problem.
