8 Ups & 3 Downs From WWE Raw (16 Sept - Results & Review)

7. Dumb Jock Energy

WWE Raw American Made

Ever since the first backstage segment placing Chad Gable and the Creed Brothers together aired, the group has been screaming out “dumb jock energy” – not sophisticated guys in suits.

Fans finally got that version of American Made on Monday night in a pre-recorded vignette that featured a flag-waving stable standing atop and astride a Hummer, wearing tank tops and flexing for the camera. Brutus Creed even channeled Classie Freddie Blassie by dropping a “pencil-neck geeks” reference. There were numerous scenes of the foursome working out in a gym, yelling and sweating, as the group talked about putting the feud with the Wyatt Sick6 behind them and focusing on the future.

This is the version of American Made that we should have gotten from the jump, and it’s scary how spot-on it was. Hopefully, they won’t be serving as the doormat for another stable, because Gable and company look like they’re going to have a blast with this new presentation.
