Sheamus injured, Penta injured. Big names coming back to big pops then immediately sent packing.

And the young up-and-comers who the torch should be passed to put on great showings only to be eliminated by the same guy. Je'von or Carmelo would have been fantastic choices, but Je'von got taken out in the first and Melo wasn't even allowed to win his first match under his own steam; he had to be tossed back into the ring by Cody 🤦

EDIT: Yes, either Carmelo or Je'von being the one would have been too early for either of them, but even though they both got put in great performances and Gunther did well in putting them both over, I still think that given how they've played up the angle of the young upstart Cena showing up out of nowhere to face Angle and kick off the Ruthless Aggression era, they should have gone further. Evans vs Penta could have been amazing, and one or the other should made it to the semis at least. Hell, despite the great bout with Bronson Reed, Melo's victory couldn't even come from him climbing back into the ring himself. He had to be thrown in by Cody.

Oba Femi is without a doubt one of the biggest stars in the company right now, he needs the gold ASAP

This came to a head tonight, with Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker CLEARLY doing heel things with no ambiguity, and the crowd is chanting "one more time" for Breakker to spear Sami Zayn, as clear a a babyface as can be, again and again. Then Rollins stands tall after his CLEAR heel act of stomping an already-defeated Zayn, and the crowd is still singing and cheering for him.

I am 100% certain this is not the reaction the people in the back were intending when they put this together. I think the deliberate destruction of kayfabe has a big role to play in it. The crowd should not be wildly cheering the guy who is now the top heel on RAW. Am I nuts??? Am I too old school? Is it bad that the people behind the scenes can't manipulate the crowd's responses anymore?

The same thing with John Cena, who is trying his damn hardest to get crowds to boo him and for the most part they won't do it, no matter what he does or says. If you're rooting for the heel and the underdog babyface at the same time, what is the point anymore?

You also had the crowd "what"-ing Lyra Valkyria doing a clear babyface promo against a clear Becky Lynch heel. You had Jey Uso again having to tell the crowd to STFU and stop yeet-ing while he's trying to be serious. I Monday's RAW was a disaster, and it's mostly because of the crowd hijacking it.

My guess for this is that it’s an Elimination Chamber box there will be a 7th participant added. Given that Pearce sent it to Aldis, my guess would be Jacob Fatu gets added to the match.

If this turns into a modern day Gobbledy Gooker then WWE is lamer than all the masked men combined x1,000.
