WWE Monday Night Raw: June 1 2015- 5 things that did not work

Authority backs up Rollins..... Again

Family time

The Authority once again backed up champion Seth Rollins and one might feel some monotony creeping in. Week in week out, the Authority opens the show on RAW and sings praises on champion and prodigy Seth Rollins. Ok. Next, they put him in an exhibition match backed up by Kane and the J&J duo. Towards the fag end of the night, the entire team once again steps into the ring to attack either Ambrose or Reigns or Orton or whoever it is and concludes the show on a high.

Being the champion that he is, Rollins must learn to represent himself better. He seems to have lost all his individuality amidst this and it may be too late to make a character recovery now.

Bella Magic

Who’s who?

When you have a twin, you tend to look identical. And WWE loves to toy around with innovative ideas about how they can use the ‘twin switch’ phenomenon. They did it with the Bashams, they did it with the Bellas. And now, they did it with the Bellas again.

Nikki Bella faced No1 contender Paige for the Divas title on RAW. With Brie Bella surprisingly looking and dressing up like Nikki today, one was hoping the WWE did not stick to their used and abused idea again. But, they did exactly that and Brie rolled up her opponent trying to portray her sister.

The division has lost a lot of credibility and this is an example of further damage. Need more storylines and writers at this point of time.

Bo Dallas vs Adrian Neville

Stock on the rise

Repeating a PPV match the very next night has never worked wonders for the WWE. They did it with Barrett and Neville recently and it was a disaster. This time they once again stuck to the idea with Neville and Bo Dallas. The man gravity forgot seems to be a constant in these kind of fixtures.

Dallas lost yet again, this time even more poorly as Neville picked up yet another win over Mr Positive. The former turns heel and WWE wants to predominantly showcase this. But not with a fixture like this, that seems to serve no purpose.
