WWE Raw: Results, Review, and Grades for November 19th, 2018

Update: Baron Corbin has made this an elimination match, and if you get eliminated, you have to go back to the locker room. Braun and Corbin start off, but Corbin immediately tags in McIntyre.

McIntyre and Braun square up, and Braun just yells, I mean like not-real-words, just screaming. McIntyre lays in some quick chops to Braun’s just before Braun drops McIntyre with a shoulder. LA is chanting “we want Finn”, and so Finn is tagged in. Ask and you shall receive.

We return from commercial to McIntyre continuing an exceptional amount of offense on Balor. Corbin tags in and offers some stiff kicks to Balor in the corner. Balor is just this close to getting a tag to Braun, but Corbin backs him into the corner, literally catching Balor in mid-air to keep him from getting the tag.

Lashley’s tagged in, and Balor manages to get a near-fall on him, before Lashley takes control again.

Elias is tagged in, and he clotheslines Corbin off the apron before clotheslining Lashley in the ring. After tossing Corbin out of the ring, Elias gets tagged out by Finn Balor. Finn soars out of the ring to take out Lashley and Corbin. He rolls Lashley back in for an attempt at the Coup De Grace, but McIntyre knocks him off the ropes.

McIntyre’s legal now, and he gives Finna big Claymore and eliminates him.

Lashley and McIntyre are overpowering Elias when we return from commercial again. Lashley and Braun get into it outside of the ring before McIntyre gets involved; meanwhile Corbin is grinding Elias into the mat. Elias lands a knee to Corbin’s chin, and he climbs the rope for an elbow drop. Lashley breaks the pin attempt.

Lashley absolutely nails Elias with a spear outside the ring. It leaves him reeling for so long that he gets counted out and eliminated.

Braun goes back and forth with Corbin. This whole segment has been goin on for forty-five minutes now, and I’m getting a little tired. Let’s hurry it up here, what do you say?

Braun almost  gets the pin on Corbin, but McIntyre hits him with a chair to DQ only himself. Lashley nails Braun with another huge spear, and McIntyre just lays into him. Bobby Lashley was just talking to fans in the front row, I believe.

La-di-da, everyone’s ganging up on Braun. They drive him into the steps a couple of times, attacking him with chairs while they do so.

I can’t believe the investing fifty minutes now into only this first segment. Actually, yes I can.
