After the Royal Rumble Sunday night, one of the developments that needed addressing on Raw was the fallout from the Raw Tag Team Championship match.

Early in the match, Jason Jordan got tossed face-first into the ringpost, knocking him out of the rest of the match. He briefly tried to enter and then tagged out immediately, leaving Seth Rollins to go it alone and ultimately lose the titles.

You can’t watch that match and aftermath and not wonder if this would blow the partnership up between the two. Instead, neither man was on the show, leaving us to wonder how this issue would be resolved.

The problem here is that this wasn’t a hard thing to script out briefly, but we instead got a couple extra recaps during the course of 180 minutes-plus. Oh well.
