Best and worst of RAW- 10th December, 2018

RAW was a distinctly different episode from start to finish

#3 Best: New champions

Congratulations to two deserving contenders

I know that not everyone was a fan of the title switch on RAW this week. Everyone wanted Roode to turn on Gable, and for him to become a heel. This could still happen down the line. But I think this title change could make the division relevant.

Ever since Ziggler and McIntyre lost the RAW Tag Team titles, the division has just felt like an afterthought. Gable and Roode now have a long overdue opportunity to become the faces of the entire division. Considering The Revival are heels, imagine the kind of matches we could all potentially see.

Roode and Gable are the hot team. It sounds like it was the first right decision on RAW. Now build up the competitive nature on the RAW tag division. https://t.co/LkUvq7ZTxq

In my opinion, even the AOP could potentially benefit from a Tag Team Division that is taken more seriously. WWE has the chance to build credibility by having Roode and Gable lead the charge into the future.

Hence, I liked this title switch!
