#1: Why WWE ended the episode in a controversial fashion
A love triangle has now become a love quadrangle, as Liv Morgan's makeover was meant to result in another twist to this never-ending saga. People thought Liv Morgan was going to be paired with Bray Wyatt after being repackaged, and I've pointed out before why this particular idea doesn't make canonical sense at all. So in an even bigger twist, we now know that Lana and Liv Morgan's on-screen characters were in a secret relationship all along.
No one expects this angle to be a critical success. Many fans took to the internet to express their hatred toward this angle, while on the other hand, people like me were howling with laughter throughout this segment for what it was. That is exactly why WWE chose to end this decade with a bang.
Undoubtedly, the segment will draw huge numbers online. Its primary purpose is to keep people talking at all times, which is what will eventually happen because WWE's intentional attempt at parodying soap operas is quite obvious now. From Lana's over-the-top acting to the officiant's slapstick remarks, everyone involved in producing these segments are fully aware that they have to make this look as terribly hilarious as possible.
As a writer, I can't help but think how I've been grateful for masterful films this year, such as Parasite, Marriage Story, Joker and The Irishman, while also being grateful for RAW's intentionally terrible ending that will keep everyone talking for years.
We live in weird times, folks.
