1. Attempted Vehicular Homicide

Break out Simon Miller’s crime counter for this episode of Raw.

The 946 stable finally collided with the entire Bloodline (sans Roman Reigns) Monday night, battling them at ringside and into the back in the latest chapter of WWE Gang Wars 2026. The brawl ended when Jacob Fatu and Royce Keys fought in the car park and Jaida Parker “accidentally” ran over the Samoan Werewolf.

If you’re keeping score, we’ve seen a beatdown with lead pipes, a torched rental car, a kidnapped Solo Sikoa left stranded, and now a car used as a weapon.

What are we seriously doing here with this stuff? The entire gang wars story - how is it supposed to end? Where do you go from attempted vehicular homicide? Did we not learn anything from the worst of the Attitude Era?

This is WWE, so it’s likely headed to a bloodless WarGames match at Survivor Series. That’s quite the step-down from Jaida running over Fatu – a few kendo stick shots and a table spot.

Sure, it was a well-done, cool stunt scene, but in the ever-escalating war between these two groups, how do you follow this up? With a headlock and a drop toehold?

At some point, this has to end up in the ring, and if the action in the squared circle can’t match the intensity of pre-recorded backstage stunts, then it’s going to die a horrible death on the night.
