8 Ups & 4 Downs From WWE Raw (July 10)

3. Messy & Too Short To Matter

Sonya Deville and Chelsea Green beating Katana Chance and Kayden Carter flashed by, but not in a good way. Honestly, the Women's Tag-Team Title division has gone backwards yet again in a hurry. It's messy and a complete afterthought on these programming run sheets.

Last week's gauntlet was fine-enough, but the promo-into-match WWE presented on Monday was sloppy and uninteresting overall. Nobody really takes Sonya and Chelsea seriously as challengers to Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez, and there's something else brewing between Raquel and Rhea Ripley anyway.

What was that about the women's tag scene being an afterthought?!

Some matches circumvent limited ring time to make things work and get the job done anyway. This was definitely not that - Chance and Carter are already lost in the shuffle as just another women's tag-team you're told to care about but given zero reason to.
