#2. Worst: Nia Jax's win over Charlotte Flair

We're still not sure why Alexa Bliss wasn't on RAW. She was scheduled to appear to confront Charlotte Flair in their newly-started title feud. However, Nia Jax ended up taking that spot and defeated The Queen in a non-title match.

Jax was at ringside during the Rhea Ripley-Shayna Baszler match and she took out Nikki A.S.H. This was in preparation for her non-title bout against Charlotte Flair.

The Irresistible Force defeated Flair and although some might find that acceptable, it deviates from the Alexa Bliss feud. Nia Jax vs. Charlotte Flair isn't as exciting. Not to mention, the former's in-ring performance looked sloppy as well.

#2. Best: The incredible opening segment on RAW

Ad

The opening segment on RAW was incredible. Damian Priest started the proceedings before Sheamus and Drew McIntyre came out. Post that, it was Bobby Lashley who came out with MVP.

Shortly after, RK-Bro came out, making it a gathering of all the male champions on the show. The segment served a good purpose - it set up the triple threat US title match as well as the RAW Tag Team title main event.

Not only this but the fallout of it all was perfectly done as well. It felt very different from the average episode of the Red brand.
