8 Ups And 6 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Oct 26th)
7. Finally Turning The Paige
Its about damn time. After a month of an awkward tease, Paige finally officially turned on former PCB team members Charlotte and Becky Lynch. Her attack ended five weeks of verbal jousting and then trying to reunite the group, which just made the entire thing feel clunky and forced. Had Paige simply walked away from her teammates after verbally berating them last month, it would have been an effective turn of a different kind, not assaulting her friends, but ditching them because she was jealous and couldnt stand them. Instead, she played mind games in wanting to get back together, only to beat both of them down Monday when their backs were turned. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smBdiQfdsbk Dont get it wrong, its still good to see Paige forcefully breakup from Charlotte and Becky. Now, we can finally move on to a Paige/Charlotte program that should be better (at least in the ring) than the Divas Champ and Nikki Bella was.
