The start of Raw this week was a bit different

Started off with Becky Lynch coming to the ring, carrying the Money in the Bank briefcase, where she started an emotional speech, then Asuka came to the ring, Lynch then revealed it wasn't a normal MITB match, for a contract, as she proceeded to unlock the briefcase, which had the championship inside, the match was actually for the Raw women's championship

Becky then revealed she's taking time off, due to being pregnant

Sami Zayn has been stripped of the Intercontinental Championship, im assuming a tournament or potential battle royale for the title to happen on Smackdown or lead up to the next PPV

Imperium beat Matt Riddle and Timothy Thatcher, after Timothy Thatcher refused to tag in after Matt Riddle accidentally hurricanranna'ed one of imperium into him knocking him off the apron. Leading to match between them later that night

I saw the Intercontinental championship had been 'vacated', but figured Zayn was unable to defend, due to an injury

8 man tournament to decide the next champion

Daniel Bryan v Drew Gulak
Jeff Hardy v Sheamus
Elias v King Corbin
Shinsuke Nakamura v AJ Styles

Was surprised to see Gulak's name in the tournament, thought Cesaro would be, also thought they'd keep Jeff Hardy & Sheamus apart, leading to a potential final, for the championship

From what i read this morning, that was Drew Gulak's last match with the company, as he let his contract run down, and is now out of contract with WWE, only time will tell if this is true as of yet no response from WWE

Outlaw he was stripped of it cause he has chosen to stay at home for the time being of the Pandemic, which WWE has allowed superstars to do, example Roman Reigns. I figure Vince McMahon just wanted the title on TV rather than being useless at home, and the tournament gives them something to run on Smackdown for the next couple of weeks

To be honest i like the participants in the tournament and the opening bracket of matches are worthwhile as your getting matches that have something behind them storywise however i feel like these matches do need more time.

Looking forward to Nakamura and AJ Styles but i know as its just a Smackdown match it wont be as good as some of their matches in the past

From what I understand, he was stripped of the title, as he refused to appear on Smackdown every week, which is understandable, not really being able to spend as much time with your family

Roman Reigns makes sense, as his immune system is probably knackered after his treatment, I can't see Reigns returning to WWE, til perhaps Summerslam, where he'd probably face Braun Strowman for the Universal Championship

It would have been interesting to see Sheamus v Cesaro in the tournament, after the time they spent teaming together as 'The Bar', they put 2 rivalries is first round matches, which I think could have been potential final/title matches

Elias v King Corbin
or
Jeff Hardy v Sheamus
