7 Ups And 10 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Dec 7)

7. Is This Going Somewhere?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QcInDJhTFM0 OK, this makes sense in some weird sense. WWE knows that Stardust is a reliable hand who can deliver a kooky, fun promo. And the company clearly wants to keep Titus O€™Neil visible whether the Prime Time Players are performing on television or not. So why not pair them up in backstage vignettes? But this is what, the third or fourth time Titus has descended on Stardust€™s star room (Really? We couldn€™t call it the cosmic lair or constellation corner?) to interrupt the former Cody Rhodes€™ rantings. O€™Neil once again engaged Stardust in a conversation, only to €œget one up€ on him verbally. So where is all of this going? A match between the two? Over what, O€™Neil violating the sanctity of Stardust€™s lair? Or is this just WWE putting smiles on faces and it€™s going absolutely nowhere? Well, according to Titus on commentary, he wants Stardust to go back to being Cody€ because he€™s the son of a Hall of Famer. Don€™t ask how poking fun at him is supposed to accomplish that, you€™ll hurt your head.
