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

8. A Mad Scramble For The Egg

When Raw opened, Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville told Vince McMahon that the building had been searched last night and wrestlers interrogated, but no one knew the whereabouts of the precious EGG.

So it was only natural that superstars would proceed to tear backstage apart and run around like it was the 24/7 Championship all over again. The wrestlers looked like complete idiots, tearing up the area and sprinting through hallways screaming, but not really searching or looking for the egg. (Contrast that with Kevin Owens calmly walking around backstage, looking in cases and under boxes with a flashlight.)

It was also surprising that Rhea Ripley was one of the most notable wrestlers running around like a goof – considering it was announced from the top of the show that she and Nikki ASH were defending their tag titles. So rather than prepping for a title defense, she was jogging down a corridor with the Viking Raiders, Madcap Moss, R-Truth, Akira Tozawa, Mansoor and several other dopes.
