#3. Hope is true: WWE changed plans for the main event of RAW last week
When WWE puts effort into RAW, it can be seen in the quality of the episode. This was the case last Monday as two blockbuster matches stole the show. The first was the steel cage bout between Big E and Kevin Owens, while the second was the RAW Women's title match between Becky Lynch and Liv Morgan.
Despite a good steel cage encounter, it was the title match that stole the show. It shouldn't come as a surprise that it was originally intended for the steel cage match to headline the show, but plans changed, as per Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful. Sportskeeda Wrestling's Saunak Nag wrote:
"According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, higher-ups wanted an in-ring promo from Seth Rollins to kick off the proceedings four hours before the show started. As the originally planned steel cage main event became the first match of this week's episode, Becky Lynch and Liv Morgan's RAW Women's Title contest served as the final clash of the night."
We hope this is true because it turned out to be the right call to have the women go on last. It was also 17 years after the historic RAW main event between Lita and Trish Stratus, making it more poetic.
