9. An Alliance Remembered
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMBcDwfQbVM First off, its a Jack Swagger sighting on Raw! Secondly, give WWE credit for not only acknowledging a previous alliance between Swagger and Zeb Colter (which hadnt been seen on television since last year), but also for letting Swagger have a good dialogue with Colter. The All-American American kept asking Zeb why he was forming a new nation MexAmerica with Alberto Del Rio, and when Colter tried to give him a stump speech, Swagger cut him off, reminding him that its me. That simple familiarity reminded everyone that these two were close for a long period and that Jack thinks something is wrong with his mustachioed former manager. Del Rio, to his credit, told Swagger to stay away from them. The entire exchange added a dimension to this little angle. While it still might fall flat on its face, there still is some curiosity surrounding where it will head next.
