7 Ups And 6 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Jan 16)

5. Emmalina Or Bust

WWE better be planning to bring Emmalina in as an arrogant heel, because her vignettes are getting more and more groan-worthy each day.

Now granted, the vignettes are a series of pictures of an absolutely stunning woman, so it’s not all bad, but they’ve been teasing this makeover of Emma for months now, with absolutely no progress other than her voiceover being added to the bumper. Beyond that, we know nothing about Emmalina or what she’s supposed to be.

“Premiering soon” needed to happen four weeks ago. Whenever she does return, Emma better make a real impact to make up for these increasingly annoying vignettes. Otherwise, it’s going to fall flat fast.
