#LAWTAKE - WWE RAW 3/11/24
RAW NOTES
Welcome in to another #LawTake courtesy of RSC’s own Chad Law. Rather than flood your Twitter feed, enjoy my focused review of the current product below! Some of this may be out of order but for the sake of time I’m covering all the bases that mattered. All comments are welcome.
Nia Jax is going to be a thorn in the rest of the women’s division side outside of Rhea. I’m here for this chaos. A big dominant woman showing her status. Nobody can really beat her besides the champion. Or maybe this is a job for Liv on the Raw leading up to WrestleMania?
Nia setting up a Last Woman Standing against Becky is cool. (AO Take)
Ala early Becky Lynch, Bayley (Bayley hugger era), I couldn’t find much appeal in Dakota Kai. Is she a Avril Lavigne type character? Cool. I guess. She goes heel by turning on her all her partners then gets injured in NXT for a long while until Damage Control 1.0 was born almost two plus years ago.
Now that she serves as the mouth piece for the reconstructed Damage Control, she has honed in on her character and her appeal. Tonight might have been the hottest and most clever Dakota has looked in a long while. She will be a major heel player in the women’s division for years to come providing she can stay healthy.
Kabuki Warriors shout and stomp and slap their way to another successful defense. I haven’t seen Asuka’s mist in some time and that’s odd considering she spent the last year basically showing all she finishes matches with was spitting in peoples faces.
Kabuki Warriors vs Shayna & Starkz was regular. They need a tag name. (AO Take)
Back of the line ya go ZoeShay!
This is the best Candace LeRae has ever come across. No mic needed. Many people saying this was a rip off of Christian’s Patriarchy work in AEW but so fucking what! Both companies copy from each other WEEKLY!
More Heel LeRae! Indi has no clue what to do and that’s gonna make for a great story down the line. A dominant heel tag team being built up and I love this. Give this division more credible teams.
Maxine Dupri is very attractive and shows great reaction even while she’s sad. You can’t ignore this girl.. She’ll get the hang of the ropes as time goes on. Look at the list of former WWE Women’s Champions before NXT existed - we been through these times before.
R-Truth was never beating Damian Priest but he at least looked solid trying. At times, until Samantha Irvin or the name plaque make mention - I really can forget Damian Priest is still Mr. MITB.
I hope the 2024 MITB winner just gets it over with in regards to the cash-in, win or lose. Both divisions. The year long wait to eventually lose is wearing cold on me. Get back to the MITB winners cashing in ASAP.
The 6 Team Team Ladder Match @ WM40 is the culmination of creative realizing that giving us the Awesome Truth victory in a straight up Tag Title match would piss the IWC off because of how many other credible tag teams are available.
If Awesome Truth aren’t in this match at WrestleMania it’s blasphemy!
Truth not knowing today is Monday in front of a Monday night Raw sign was funny (AO Take)
TBH I don’t even really care who else enters, just split the tag titles up already. Please for the love of Hov give us separate belts for each brand.
Andrade being nowhere near the Latin American Division once again is best for business.
Andrade chopping it up with Judgement Day…I’m interested (AO Take)
Becky Lynch feels like the heel against Rhea no matter how ya slice it. It’s an odd trajectory we’re heading towards for WM40.
Why do we want Becky to beat Rhea again? Just because she won the Rumble? Copy.
Rhea vs Becky promo was regular. (AO Take)
Right to the point with Jey Uso and his promo. Finally the match is announced. We can all get our YEAT on! Boy this match is gonna be a slow WWE style match but the promo packages leading up to should be immaculate.
Jey USO’s promo was my favorite part of the night. Amazing what happens when you get to the fucking point. (AO Take)
Seth is playing into this “not worried” gimmick so much I just hope it ends his reign in his match against Drew. He just huffed and puffed and ran to the back. Alrighty then.
Drew crying into his hands because Seth hurt his feelings was… a choice (AO Take)
Cody Rhodes emotional promo to give the fans something more to sink their teeth into for the actual SINGLES match and not the TAG match. I’ll take it. Cody being Cody. ✅
Cody promos are on on 🔂 (AO Take)
At this rate I don’t even want Gunther to lose at WrestleMania 🤷🏾♂️
Gunther is the man (AO Take)
Hour long Gauntlet matches make me feel like I’m watching WWE 2019 again! Wooo!
I liked the promo vids for the 6-pack throughout the night. (AO Take)
Because JD McDome is in this match that must mean Richocet will at least get A victory.
Richocet will be All Elite when his contract is up. Mark my words.
Shinsuke will retire a WWE lifer who gets other people over. Mark my words.
Bronson Reed will eventually get a win over someone that matters in 2024. On television or PPV. Mark my words.
Sami Zayn gets to finally finish his story at WrestleMania against Gunther while Gable maybe gets to be on the pre-show? I smell a triple threat coming.
Had Gable & Sami as the final 2 with Gable winning. Sami was a surprise. Cool ending. (AO Take)
Tune into Raw next week where we will probably see Sami Zayn defend his Gauntlet victory IC opportunity against Chad Gable in the main event!
Thank you for reading! Tune into my next #LawTake for WWE NXT.
