8 Ups And 5 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Sept 23)
5. Raiders Get Big Win
One of the recurring gripes here has been that the Viking Raiders were spinning their wheels for months, facing no-name jobbers ad nauseum. So when they started getting involved in meaningful matches, we had to give positive marks.
Monday was probably their biggest match yet, as they tangled with Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson in a hard-hitting tag match. The contest saw Erik & Ivar pushed more than they had been to this point on the main roster, while following through on a previous angle where the two teams eliminated each other from a tag team turmoil match.
The Viking Raiders showed off their skills, rallying fans to their side and earning some well-deserved applause after they won. Hopefully, there’s more in store for the bruising duo.
