Analysing Raw's acquisitions in the 2018 Superstar Shake-up

#2 The Riott Squad

Will these three fare better in RAW?

In what comes as a fairly surprising switch, The Riott Squad arrived on Raw and interrupted the match between Sasha Banks and Bayley, leaving them both laid out in the ring and making an instant impact.

While it was an impactful debut, they had virtually the same debut on Smackdown Live six months ago and it never really went anywhere.

Some felt that the Superstar Shake-up might see The Riott Squad go their separate ways. Ruby Riott has enough about her to compete as a singles competitor, but Sarah Logan and, in particular, Liv Morgan may benefit from another run in NXT after a rather forgettable six months on the main roster thus far.

However, they are still working as a stable and have moved over to Monday Night Raw. Maybe a fresh start on a new brand could allow them to shine and develop their characters, God knows they need to.

Now that they will be working alongside the likes of Ronda Rousey, they will all need to figure out why they are working together and what their purpose as a team is.

This is as much down to the creative team as it is the individuals, thus far the booking of them has been questionable.

Riott, Morgan and Logan will have to make the most of this fresh start to be a success on the red brand.
