12 Things You May Have Missed From Last Night's WWE Raw (Jun 4)
5. WWE Vs. NBA
Last week, Philadelphia 76ers president Bryan Colangelo was stung by a Ringer report that linked him to up to five different Twitter accounts rife with comments praising Colangelo himself, disparaging his predecessor, Sam Hinkie, as well as taking shots at current Sixers players Markelle Fultz and Joell Embiid.
The scandal could cost Colangelo his job, as the team have now hired lawyers to investigate the link between him and the accounts. It also provided Sami Zayn's source material last night. In another surprisingly on point pop culture reference, WWE had the former 'Underdog From The Underground' attack Lashley with several burner accounts in an angle on par with the tripe we've come to expect of this storyline, but buoyed, once again, by Sami's individual performance.
Are WWE trying to feud with an NBA team? While the seven-foot Embiid show up and batter both Lashley and Zayn at Money In The Bank? Probably not, but at least it'd make this storyline more interesting...
