Best and worst of RAW- 8th Jan, 2018

#2 Worst: Weak writing

Alexa Bliss' lines sounded very contrived

We praised WWE for the realistic, shocking nature of the Braun Strowman-Brock Lesnar- Kane segment. In the same breath, we feel we must criticize the Alexa Bliss-Nia Jax-Asuka banter, we saw on RAW this week.

We wonder if even kids fall for 'you won't believe what Asuka said about you, Nia Jax' line! Yes, we know that Nia Jax did not fall for it. At the same time, couldn't WWE have scripted for Alexa Bliss to get Nia Jax on her side, in a more interesting manner than this?

How's THIS for a statement?!#RAW @NiaJaxWWE pic.twitter.com/lQjIkcQJdF

For what it was worth, we loved Nia Jax flattening Asuka in the middle of the ring. Their upcoming collision should be quite a treat to watch.
