20 Reasons Why Last Night's WWE Raw Was An Absolute Mess

The Raw women's division is a complete shambles, as highlighted by last night's shoddy offerings.

A backstage segment saw Natalya and Naomi reading notes from Raw Women's Title contender Lacey Evans. 'The Sassy Southern Belle' had invited them, Dana Brooke, and later Alexa Bliss to ringside to watch her match with local jobber Toni Bone, scenting the envelopes with peach for whatever reason. The Money In The Bank quartet showed up to watch Evans smash her opponent in seconds then cut a mediocre promo, before Becky Lynch showed up, a brawl ensued, and Evans scampered up the ramp.

Compared to the content we were getting prior to WrestleMania, when Lynch, Charlotte Flair, and Ronda bloody Rousey were doing battle, this was p*ss-weak. Is women's wrestling no longer a priority? Have WWE a single clue what they're doing? Is the Money In The Bank ladder match going to be any good? Is this is a sign of things to come?
