4 Ups & 11 Downs From WWE Raw (Nov 22)

1. Lashley Dominant

There was a thought about making it a “down” to have the Mysterios as babyfaces challenge Bobby Lashley to a handicap match, but sometimes, you have to brush that off in favor of the positive.

And let’s face it, Lashley overcoming two men to win was impressive, especially considering the opponents were former tag champs. Stuff like this is what got the All Mighty over with fans in the first place, as he looked dominant even while reeling from Dominik and Rey Mysterio’s attacks.

Dom and Rey used quick tags to keep Lashley off-balance, but he finally managed to gain the upper hand after shrugging off a double 619 and two Frogsplashes. He speared Rey and quickly caught Dominik in the Hurt Lock, putting him away.

You’ve got to wonder what’s next for Lashley – perhaps a United States Championship open challenge? Either way, it’s good to keep someone like him strong and in the wings.
