10 Plot Holes On Every Episode Of WWE RAW
1. Kevin Owens: Acrophobic
On this week's RAW, Kevin Owens developed a sudden and inexplicable fear of heights when he hesitated to perform his frog splash onto a prone Finn Bálor. Disregarding the substantial evidence that Owens has never been averse to climbing ladders, the very move he could not bring himself to perform sees him leap from a not inconsiderable height in itself: the top turnbuckle he ascends in every single match. He was about a foot higher than that on Monday, but this wasn't a sort of specific, limited acrophobia, as nonsensical as that would be; at Hell In A Cell, less than a year ago, Owens climbed to the top of the Cell with no compunction whatsoever in his attempt to maim Shane McMahon. Perhaps Owens doesn't suffer from acrophobia per se, but a specific fear of ladder rungs. Or perhaps WWE TV is unadulterated garbage.
What was most infuriating about the post-main event angle is that it adds absolutely nothing of dramatic substance to the upcoming Money In The Bank Ladder Match. He didn't play the bit for laughs, like William Regal and Dave Taylor at Armageddon 2006.
He just looks and will look inept, provided this is all remembered and played up again, which, lol.
