7 Ups And 8 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Sept 5)

7. The Feud Must Continue

First off, a positive: It was good to see Darren Young wrestle someone else and win. Jinder Mahal isn’t top-flight talent, but it’s better than wrestling Titus O’Neil again.

But if you thought that meant we’re moving on with this Prime Time Players imploding feud, you’d be wrong. Titus sat in on commentary and tried to interfere, but Young managed to win anyway. Afterward, Darren and Titus tangled yet again, this time with Young showing some fire and beating on O’Neil and chasing him off.

And while there were some positives, this has been such an abysmal feud that all we really need to see right now is a final blow-off match to end it so they can move on to other things. It’s not like this was a beloved tag team breaking up, and the two men produce classic singles bouts. Their single tag title reign last year was underwhelming (to say the least) and both had moved on to competing for singles titles in recent months.

So please, set up a final confrontation at Clash of Champions and be done with it. Let them air it all out and put it to rest.
