4 Ups & 10 Downs From WWE Raw (Sep 7)
1. Mysterios Get Revenge
Well, it had to happen sooner or later: the Mysterio family had to get revenge for all the attacks that have befallen them during the past few months.
It took Seth Rollins basically casting his disciple Murphy out and letting him fight his battle alone Monday night, but at least it led to something. Murph squared off against Dominik Mysterio in a street fight that ended with the former disciple tied up in the ropes and being pummeled by kendo sticks, not just from Dominik, not just from Rey, but the entire Mysterio family, with daughter Aaliyah and wife Angie joining in.
They unloaded on Murphy until he submitted, and then they continued to thrash him as he curled up in a semi-fetal position. It was the kind of beating that was well-deserved for his role in tormenting the family throughout the summer.
The question here is, will this be the end of Murphy’s involvement, or will it just be yet another chapter in the never-ending saga? If we see Murphy and Rollins reconcile and then continue fighting with the Mysterio family, then this was just a one-week respite or false resolution.
At some point, we need to reach an endgame to this feud. Preferably before the end of 2020.
