10 Booking Steps For WWE Raw (Nov 30)

It looks like The Authority has been reshuffled...

Out of the ashes of Survivor Series, WWE offered up quite a tepid episode of Monday Night Raw. The program opened up with another lengthy diatribe, before degenerating into a show filled with characters that don't often get house room these days. The likes of Mark Henry, Heath Slater and even El Torito (in a backstage segment) were all featured throughout Raw. Looking at social media response, this didn't do much for many watching the broadcast. There was an overwhelming sense that the company were simply killing time, which can sometimes happen at this time of year. It's almost as though WWE want to power through to the Royal Rumble, which is when 'WrestleMania Season' can begin. It's all very well and good to look to 'Mania, but WWE have a lot of television to produce before reaching the AT&T Stadium. There's a general feeling that the promotion is suffering from a lack of star power, but it's all about handling what WWE have on their roster. At some point, they must learn to cope without the likes of Brock Lesnar or The Undertaker. This article looks at what WWE could do in order to make the next edition of Monday Night Raw more memorable. In the interest of realism, this list focuses on feasible booking steps.
