7 Ups And 9 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Feb 15)
2. A Little Reminder
The little things are sometimes the most memorable moments and can provide a lot more depth and backstory than overt storytelling. In some cases, the little things quickly blossom into very big things. For weeks, WWE teased the possibility that Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose could turn on each other during the Fastlane triple threat match. Both men have sworn that that wont happen, with the duo defeating other established teams to show their strength. But what if in the heat of battle, one of them clubs the other and tries to steal the pin? It could happen, considering a trip to WrestleMania is on the line. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-b2Jj0q07jM Monday was no exception when it comes to Dean and Roman having each others backs, as Dean raced to ringside to clear them out, only to tease hooking Reigns in the Dirty Deeds DDT. That little flare-up, even though they laughed about it afterward, showed that Ambrose is serious about winning a shot at the world title at WrestleMania XXXII. That made it all worthwhile and make sense.
