6 Ups And 8 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (March 28th)

7. Misreading The Audience? Or Trolling Them?

The 10-woman tag match that grew out of the Brie Bella/Lana feud hasn€™t exactly been setting the world on fire lately, but even a match like that can suddenly get a lot of attention €“ for all the wrong reasons.

Monday, Raw dedicated a segment to a Paige/Emma match with various Divas present. What once was an NXT Women€™s Championship title match is now filler for an angle. During a distraction Lana hit a kick, leading to Emma€™s victory. Immediately afterward, things broke down, but a five-on-four advantage meant that Team BAD and Blonde (yes, that€™s really what they go by) had the upper hand.

That is, until the fifth member of the Total Divas team was announced: Eva Marie. Fans reacted as if they were presented with a vomiting pet as a prize. The crowd loudly booed the entire idea out of the building.

The only saving grace to this awful idea was that none of her new teammates seemed to enjoy her coming to their aide.
