5 Ups & 6 Downs From WWE Raw After WrestleMania 42 (Results & Review)

Ups...

5. All Ego’s Raw Debut Clicks

Onto the good. There was plenty of it.

Ethan Page was revealed as Raw’s newest signing by Adam Pearce during a backstage segment. He confronted Je’Von Evans with a smug look on his face, which led to a match between them. That turned out to be a great watch before Rusev ran-in, distracted Je’Von and that led to the win for Page. All in, this was a tidy debut for ‘All Ego’, and Rusev targeting Je’Von after the ‘Mania ladder match made sense.

Page then paved the way for Rusev to get the upper hand on Penta as well. It's really nice to see one of NXT’s finest in the title mix on the main roster already. WWE's writing team didn't waste any time when seeking ways to get Ethan in on the action, and now it looks like he'll actually team with Rusev vs. Evans and Penta on Raw soon. This is a fabulous spot for the former AEW star.

That jump from Tony Khan to Triple H looks more and more like an inspired decision with each passing day. Page's 'All Ego' character is a great fit for WWE's product, and he proved he can go in-ring vs. Je'Von as well. Creative got everything spot on throughout his proper debut: He's confrontational, annoyingly good at what he does, and they gave Evans an out due to Rusev's interference.

More matches/segments should adhere to these simple rules and have the same depth of care. When WWE show that care, they make sure that everyone wins big. So to speak.
