In case you did not know…
WWE held their 25th-anniversary edition of Monday Night Raw last night. The show was held at two venues and had numerous legends on showcase.
Meanwhile, Curt Hawkins is currently on a 157 match losing streak. His latest defeat came at this week’s Main Event show where he lost to Rhyno. Earlier, he had received an endorsement from Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson as well.
The heart of the matter
In this segment, the Brooklyn Brawler was seen giving a motivational speech aimed at Hawkins. Lombardi recalled his own career and equated it with the one of Hawkins.
The former WWE star then went on to speak about how he defeated Triple H and won a battle royal at the Madison Square Garden. He concluded by assuring that Hawkins will soon turn his luck around.
What’s next?
The losing streak of Curt Hawkins is an intriguing storyline on Raw. The next possible destination for Hawkins is the Royal Rumble which takes place this weekend.
The show will be held at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia and will also have a WWE Universal title match featuring Brock Lesnar, Braun Strowman, and Kane. If Hawkins does not get a spot in the Rumble, we will have to wait till next Monday Night to figure out what WWE does with Hawkins next.
Author’s take
The fans are really invested in the losing streak of Hawkins. It was a great gesture from WWE’s side to give him a segment alongside the Brooklyn Brawler who is a glorified jobber himself. Sooner or later, the streak is going to end and when it does, expect Hawkins to break out provided WWE does it in the right way.
