5 things WWE RAW got right this week: Bobby Lashley defeats three top stars; Liv Morgan injured

#3. Kevin Owens’ antics allowed Bobby Lashley to go through on WWE RAW

Bobby Lashley competed against Kevin Owens in his first of three matches on WWE RAW. KO was the first one who objected to MVP’s demand for a WWE Championship match for Lashley, and it made sense that he was put up first against The Almighty.

Owens tried to gain an early advantage by attacking Lashley immediately after the bell. Lashley fought back and took down Owens with a big shoulder tackle. He delivered a beautiful vertical suplex to flatten the former Universal Champion.

The fight spilled out of the RAW ring, where Lashley sent Owens crashing to the floor. But The Prizefighter rocked him with a Superkick when they got back inside.

The two men exchanged some good moves before Lashley set up for the Hurt Lock. Owens tapped out before Lashley could get a firm grip to award him the win.

Later on, Seth Rollins faced off against The Almighty on RAW. The Visionary tried to weaken the former WWE Champion by slamming him into the ring post a few times, but he couldn’t put Lashley away.

Kevin Owens ran down to attack Rollins in hopes of getting Lashley disqualified. However, Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville announced that it would be a no disqualification match. The Almighty leveled Rollins with a Spear right after to pick up the win on RAW.

The star in both matches was Kevin Owens once again. Even though Lashley did all the hard work, Owens’ heelish tactics made both contests enjoyable.

He awarded Lashley an easy victory by tapping out early and costing Rollins his RAW match. It was a good way to put down two top men to put Lashley over without denting their value.
