7 Ups And 8 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (June 22nd)
5. Thats Your Main Event?
Look, we get it: the promo and beatdown was the actual main event of Raw, but your main event match featured Dolph Ziggler versus Adam Rose in the epic Who Loves Their Valet More? battle. You only wish that was a joke. Roses entire pre-match promo was predicated on the belief that he and Rosa Mendes were really in love, while Ziggler and Lana were just for show. Nothing against Rose, but is this the only person Dolph can beat these days? And theyre fighting over who can make out more convincingly? Come on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POptKm2ZmEs The match really just served as a backdrop for Lanas ongoing turn, as the biggest development was Ziggler letting Lanas hair down finally, and its worth noting that shes wearing more natural-looking makeup, as shes softening her appearance gradually. Otherwise, this was a total waste of time.
