#2: Some obvious plot points were unnecessarily stretched to cover the 3-hour timespan

As simple as last night's episode of RAW felt, the show became tedious when it was obvious that some basic storylines were unnecessarily stalling to fill up the time.

Akam and Rezar (AOP) could have easily outpowered Kevin Owens during their initial confrontation at the beginning of the show.

But they walked away for some reason, only to delay the inevitable by beating up The Prizefighter during his match against Bobby Lashley.

The basic plot point here was the AOP beating up Kevin Owens, but it was stretched over time, just like the handicap match between The Kabuki Warriors and Charlotte Flair later on in the episode.

Asuka and Kairi Sane were the favorites to win last night since strength always lies in numbers. They did win the match eventually, but the duration of the bout felt too long to state the obvious.

Even if it was good to see the crowd being engaged during the match, you couldn't help but think that WWE solely relied on the performers to make an average plot look appealing.

Even Randy Orton and Drew McIntyre's confrontation, as interesting as it looked, was triggered after McIntyre got mad over an eye poke from Orton last week.

These segments or matches weren't bad by any means. They were just too basic and nothing more.
