7. What Happened After Raw Went Off The Air? Reason Behind Bo Dallas Being Booked Strong
As seen during the final segment of last night’s Raw, Roman Reigns speared Chris Jericho (who came to the aid of his friend, Kevin Owens). After Raw went off the air, Jericho & Owens double teamed on Reigns.
This led to Seth Rollins making the save and the teams of Reigns & Rollins (who have been WWE Tag Team Champions before) cleared the ring. Reigns speared Rollins after this to end the show.
Speaking of Raw, below are the matches that were taped before Raw for this week’s WWE Superstars:
– Titus O’Neil vs. Jack Swagger
– Neville vs. Curtis Axel
As seen on Raw, Bo Dallas defeated an enhancement talent while showing a lot of aggression. Bo was recently kicked off a plane for being intoxicated and WWE dropped him from a recent Live Event tour due to this. Instead of being punished, he got pushed and this came as a shock to many.
The reason behind this push is that he is scheduled to face WWE’s first ever Chinese signee, Bin Wang, at WWE’s Live Event in Shanghai, China on September 10th in Wang’s debut match. Bo is expected to put over Wang.
#BinWang will make his in-ring debut when @WWE heads to Shanghai on Sept. 10! https://t.co/7C0pBuIFRF #WWEShanghai pic.twitter.com/AZsKdjmLQA
