Backstage News On Why WWE Shook Up Monday Night Raw

You got his attention. There are a lot of things going on in WWE at the moment and some of them are not exactly being well received. WWE is just not the most popular promotion in the world right now and a lot of those problems come from Monday Night Raw. The show has not been doing very well and a lot of that is due to how erratic it has been. Now we know why one of its recent changes took place.

This week’s edition of Monday Night Raw featured two major matches as New Day faced the Bloodline and Roman Reigns, Big E. and Bobby Lashley faced off in a triple threat. The latter of the matches was not advertised in advance and was a last minute addition to the show. According to Wrestling Observer Radio, Vince McMahon added the show to the card due to how well the match had been received at recent live events. The six man tag was originally planned to main event the show but wound up opening instead.

It was a busy night. Check out how we got to where we were:

Roman Reigns and The Usos crash The New Day’s celebration: Raw, Sept. 20, 2021

The New Day vs. Roman Reigns & The Usos: Raw, Sept. 20, 2021

Big E vs. Roman Reigns vs. Bobby Lashley: Raw, Sept. 20, 2021

Opinion: I get the idea of putting something big on television but it might not have been the wisest idea to have two World Champions and someone who had held the WWE Title for more than six months thrown out there with two hours’ notice. That could have headlined a pay per view and now it’s just thrown out there on Monday Night Raw. There is an idea there, but holding it out might have made a lot more sense.

What did you think of the match? When should it have aired? Let us know in the comments below.
