Backstage News On The Direction Of A Big Monday Night Raw Story

You mean they don’t have it all on paper? Earlier this week on Monday Night Raw, the trio of Braun Strowman, Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre seemed to be coming apart at the seams. The team looked ready to implode and the ending of the show saw McIntyre and Strowman staring each other down. However, it might not be that simple as there may be more (or less) in mind.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, there is currently no end game in sight for the Strowman, Ziggler and McIntyre story. The team seemed to come to an end this week on Monday Night Raw with McIntyre kicking Strowman in the face and leaving on his own before a staredown ensued, but this might be dropped and the team could be kept together. The main goal in the end is to have McIntyre become one of the top stars in the promotion, as WWE is very high on him.

So this? You might be able to forget about it.

Opinion: While I’m not wild on the idea of the story having no real ending in mind, I can completely get behind the idea of pushing McIntyre. I’ve been a big fan of him for a long time (and made it rather clear) so having him becoming a major star at the end sounds like the right idea. They don’t need to really go anywhere else with the trio, as they never felt like anything more than just foils for the Shield, so get us on to the more interesting stuff.

Do you think the trio needs to continue? What should all three move on to next? Let us know in the comments below.
