Downs

7. No Ladder Match?

Sure, we got short-changed on a match involving the Raw Tag Team Champions Monday night, but the pre-match attack (and backstage sneak attack) did a nice job upping the tension between the three tag teams for their WrestleMania title match.

However, a ladder was involved in both attacks… and nothing. No announcement, no late drop-in with an update that the Raw tag title match was now a ladder match. Seriously, Stephanie McMahon typically can’t help but be on TV as much as possible, and one time when it would make perfect sense for her to show up and do something, and we get nothing.

To be fair, this will probably end up being announced on Twitter or Facebook Live or something, but the time to do it was right there on Raw, right on the heels of the attacks.
