3. Forgettable Wrestling

Name one good match from Raw Monday night. Go ahead, we’ll wait.

While a couple matches were inoffensive at worst (Lucha House Party versus Revival, Dolph Ziggler versus Apollo Crews), there was nothing memorable, nothing really, truly entertaining about the in-ring action Monday night.

While there was a hard sell for Friday’s PPV, it’s inexcusable in 2018 with the roster WWE has to not have a single match that speaks to wrestling fans. They could have given Ziggler/Crews a few more minutes, or let the tag team triple threat match breathe a little.

Anything would have helped.
