Ups...

5. A Fun Four-Way Sprint

Raw will feature another four-way tag effort, then the two winning sides will meet in a match to determine who gets the tag title shot at Elimination Chamber. This sort of booking is simple, but that's not something to beat creative up for. Besides, they're still weaving in non-title stories for the tag lot, and that's wonderful.

Tyler Bate and Pete Dunne are building something cool on their side, but it says a lot for Humberto and Angel that they would've been worthy winners on Friday night too. Legado del Fantasma have lingering beef with the LWO though, so it made sense to give the nod to this retooled British Strong Style.

Them vs. Awesome Truth or another team will be bags of fun.

It's early days for Dunne and Bate as a duo as well. Y'know what that means? It means they can still keep developing their act on SmackDown even if they don't get to fly out to Australia for Chamber. There's a lot to like about what's bubbling away in the tag division right now.
