#3 and #4 Impressed on WWE RAW: Cedric Alexander and Shelton Benjamin

Shelton Benjamin and Cedric Alexander looked great inside the ring

On this week’s episode of the Red brand, we saw Cedric Alexander and Shelton Benjamin of The Hurt Business challenged Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods for the RAW Tag Team Championships. While The New Day members were successful in retaining their title ahead of Survivor Series, Benjamin and Alexander deserve credit for their brilliant in-ring performance tonight.

After a long time, we saw Alexander back to displaying his highly impressive in-ring maneuvers as he locked horns with Kingston and Woods on WWE RAW. It reminded us how good he is and why he deserves to feature in matches regularly. His skills, coupled with his stable, made his character all the more compelling inside the ring.

The same goes for Benjamin. Adding him to The Hurt Business finally paid off for the talented Superstar. Prior to this, Benjamin was rarely booked to be a part of such compelling encounters, but that changed on WWE RAW tonight. He looked great in this match, and at no point did he appear to be a weak link throughout this encounter. It can now be said that Alexander and Benjamin will make for a good tag team on WWE RAW in the coming months.
