WWE Raw: Grading tonight's show (July 1st 2019)

#4. 6-out-of-9 Falls?

In case you didn’t get enough of them on last week’s Smackdown Live, The Miz and Elias squared off once again in another 2-out-of-3 falls match.

Miz picked up the first fall almost instantly after hitting his ‘Skull Crushing Finale’ on Elias. Michael Cole then revealed that a commercial break would take place after the second fall of the match, so I guess Elias is winning the next fall then, which he predictably did after hitting ‘Drift Away’ on Miz.

The deciding fall came after Elias smashed his knee off of the ring post, leading to Miz locking on the figure-four leg lock for the submission victory.

This evens things up after Elias’ win last week. So, will we now get a decider to see who will win this 6-out-of-9 falls series?

Grade: C

In a somewhat odd NXT call-up, the Street Profits made their Raw debut in a couple of backstage segments. Firstly in their own scheduled interview and then by interrupting Paul Heyman’s interview later in the night.

The segments themselves were fine and allowed Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins to showcase their personalities, but I couldn’t help from just wondering why the current NXT Tag Team Champions have been called up to Raw.

Grade: C+
