5 Things The WWE Got Right: Vintage Shield Returns
By Tom Thomas
What were the five moments the WWE creative got right this week on Raw, SmackDown Live and NXT?
Another week has passed by us in the WWE, and we have much to nitpick on. The week that went by boasted a lot of positives from all three major shows. Raw was electric with the return of the classic Shield entrance and attire. SmackDown Live showed us how well Sami Zayn can transition into a heel. NXT on the other hand continued with its storyline filled with stables along the way.
There was much to deliberate on the events that unfolded over the week. I have already addressed some of these issues in the weekly five burning questions piece. This piece however, will be a tribute to all the good things creative did over this week. As we move towards WWE TLC 2017 on Sunday, Raw tried its best to build some anticipation towards the PPV.
However, the lack of excitement surrounding TLC is understandable. It is essentially a two-match PPV and sadly neither of those matches involve the biggest title the Red brand could offer. Throw in underwhelming feuds like the never-ending Wyatt Vs. Balor feud and the recently cultivated Alicia Fox Vs. Sasha Banks feud and you have nothing much to look forward to.
However, the ups and downs from TLC are to be deliberated next week. This week though, we will focus on the three main shows. What were the five moments that made logical sense? Was Kane’s surprise return one among them? How about Braun Strowman pinning Roman Reigns yet again? Continue reading to find out.
