10 Mistakes WWE Made On Raw This Week (6 May 2019)

#3 Get Over And Get Buried

Braun Can't Handle The Truth

Sami Zayn has been speaking nothing but the truth for over three weeks now, as his assessment of how far the WWE Universe has fallen has been so accurate that even the fans themselves are agreeing with the former NXT Champion.

However, in WWE, original and fresh gimmicks like Sami's can't last more than a month without being completely mishandled, as on Raw this week Zayn came down to the ring to lay down another reality check on the WWE Universe, but before Zayn could get to the meat of his content he was interrupted by an old foe in Braun Strowman.

You might be asking yourself right now what was the reasoning behind Strowman's desire to confront Zayn with no real prior motivation? Well, to put it quite simply it was to throw the man in the trash, and yeah you heard that Strowman came down the ring to shut Zayn, which meant something crazy was going to happen.

Everyone was apparently fed up with Zayn's gratifying gimmick, including Braun which meant it was another segment of The Benny Hill Show featuring Braun Strowman chasing Zayn around town, as all WWE had to do was cue the music because this wrestling show is about to get silly, and silly it was.

How does WWE expect fans to believe, in 2019, that Sami Zayn was put inside a dumpster truck and squashed like a paper plate? The logic just doesn't add up. Furthermore, this entire angle was probably done so Strowman can build up some credibility when he faces Samoa Joe sometime down the line, but where does that leave Zayn?

Just like Kevin Owens in 2018, it seems that Sami is Strowman's new whipping boy in 2019, and we all know how that turned out for KO. This was a mistake, as Zayn was one of the only enjoyable aspects of Raw every week, and now that he has been fed to Strowman, a huge chunk of his credibility has been deleted.
