7 Ups And 6 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (March 5)

Ups...

7. Someone Listened

It’s been obvious that the Bray Wyatt/Matt Hardy feud has been floundering in recent weeks (actually, months) and that something very different needed to happen if there was any chance of salvaging it.

Monday, we got a strong indication that that is exactly what will happen in the coming weeks. After Wyatt dispatched with Rhyno, the Woken Hardy appeared on the screen and told Bray that their feud can’t be contained by WWE and must move to the Hardy Compound.

He called their match the Ultimate Deletion, indicating that we very well could be moving toward something very similar to the unique Final Deletion match we saw the Hardys compete in while they were in TNA.

If that’s the case, there’s a chance at worst we’ll see something we haven’t seen in WWE before. At best, we could see a really innovative, entertaining brawl unlike anything most fans have seen. That alone merits a positive check this week.
