8 Ups And 8 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Jan 11)
5. True To Character
Did anyone else notice who was missing from the beatdown at the end of Raw? If you paid attention to who came out for the One Versus All match, 14 superstars emerged to follow Vince and Stephanie McMahon to the ring. But only 10 got involved in some way or another. The Wyatt Family came out with everyone else and stood on the outside with everyone while Kevin Owens battled Roman Reigns. But when it came time for Mr. McMahon to order the troops into the ring, the Wyatts were nowhere to be found. Sure enough, they never were seen again. Couple that with how the Wyatts appeared during Vinces opening promo to interrupt him at tell everyone that Bray was good with anyone but you, Roman, and it looked like the Wyatt Family was a group of loners, not really going along to get along. And thats a subtle, but good thing, that the Wyatts didnt just do Mr. McMahons bidding and get wiped out by Reigns and Brock Lesnar. They Wyatts did what they wanted, how they wanted. That sounds about right for the backwoods group.
