Video: Major Angle Takes Place At The End Of Monday Night Raw

It goes one way and then another. This week’s Monday Night Raw was dominated by one major story: Roman Reigns announcing that he has leukemia, which is forcing him to vacate the Universal Title. That alone is one of the biggest stories of the year, but Reigns has friends on the show and those people played into the events of this week’s show as well, in a big way.

This week on Monday Night Raw, Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins challenged Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre for the Raw Tag Team Titles in a match dedicated to Reigns. Rollins pinned Ziggler to win the titles, but Ambrose turned on Rollins, his new championship partner after the match. Ambrose even hit Dirty Deeds onto the exposed concrete to end the show. There is no word on what will happen to the Tag Team Titles.

And here’s how it happened:

Opinion: I know this is going to get some flack from fans, as it likely should, but my goodness that is one way to get some heat on Ambrose. On a night like this with the fans already emotional over what happened with Reigns, there wasn’t much that could be done to get the rest of the Shield guys booed. This was about all they could do and that’s exactly what happened here. It’s risky, but it might have been the only thing they could have done.
