Raw Review: The Authority Continue to Assert Their Power

Naomi vs. Alicia Fox
Alicia was pretty funny as she mocked Naomi, who had her left hand tied behind her back, per The Authority’s rule. Naomi took advantage of Alicia’s attitude, and she hit some early offense, before Alicia got serious and took over.
Again, Alicia got a little too relaxed, and again Naomi took over and got a lot of offense in. Unfortunately for Naomi, the match went to ringside, and when she threw Alicia back in the ring, she had trouble climbing back in. This allowed Alicia to recover and hit a scissors kick for the win.
Fox defeats Naomi via pinfall.
2.5 out of 5 stars – This was much more entertaining than it should have been. They should really retire the “hand tied behind the back” gimmick.
Dean Ambrose and his doctor backstage
The doctor told Ambrose he was going to show him some pictures and he wanted Ambrose to say the first word that came to mind, prompting Ambrose to shout out “Thursday.”
The doctor showed Ambrose pictures of Triple H, Seth Rollins, Kane and Roman Reigns, and Ambrose had some funny answers. The last two were Hacksaw Jim Duggan and Stephanie McMahon, which got the same word from Ambrose, “Hooooooooooooooooooooooo.”
Very great delivery by Ambrose. He’s a star, and seems ready to be back on the rise, now that he’s done with Bray Wyatt.
