It’s hard to count Monday’s 10-woman tag match against Raw. After all, while it didn’t hurt existing storylines, it didn’t force-feed stuff either.

The tag match combined two multi-woman matches from Evolution, with Trish Stratus, Lita, Sasha Banks, Bayley and Natalya taking on the Riott Squad, Alicia Fox and Mickie James. As is often the case in these types of matches, things broke down, leading to a fun moment where Bayley and Lita performed stereo Twists of Fate and then hit a diving elbow drop and moonsault (respectively). The faces also nailed a Hart Attack for the hell of it.

The match was just the right amount of nostalgia with action, with some basic classic spots and continuing to move forward with the action.
