6 things WWE subtly told us on RAW: Possible 'endgame' to Murphy-Aalyah storyline, Popular star's push gets canceled? (September 28th, 2020)

#3. Mandy Rose's new direction on RAW

A change in plans?

We were admittedly a bit surprised by Mandy Rose's direction on RAW. While Lana and Natalya were out demanding a tag team title shot, Adam Pearce instead informed them that they would have to face RAW's newest team of Mandy Rose and Dana Brooke.

The two superstars put on a clinic and won their match with relative ease, with Lana being the one to unsurprisingly take the pinfall. It seems clear that they will be a tag team going forward, but we can't help but feel that they were simply put together, which they probably were.

Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville felt like a unit because of a genuine connection between them. While we hope both women succeed, the Mandy Rose-Dana Brooke pairing seems a bit odd.

We wouldn't be surprised to see Otis drafted over to RAW on October 12th. But for now, WWE seemingly put a temporary solution to the problem of the women's tag team division, i.e, the lack of teams.
