1. What is happening between the WWE and The Revival?

Soon after Monday night Raw last week, there were many speculations going around that The Revival had asked for their release. Bodyslam.net was the first to report the story. Pro Wrestling Sheet shed more details into the incident, citing that The Revival were unhappy with their place on the roster and how tag team wrestling has generally been presented in the WWE as of late. According to Ryan Satin of Pro Wrestling Sheet:

"Sources tell us the tag team’s decision to ask for their releases was based on how little time and respect the division is given. We’re told the duo is frustrated about the lack of promos, backstage segments and direction of the division. Not just for themselves, but the entire division … such as the tag match on Monday being used as a cutaway segment. One source also pointed to The Club being an afterthought on TV after coming to WWE as a major signing and Authors of Pain being absent from television not long after their debut as additional examples."

However, the WWE seemed to have given some serious thought into this situation and this week, Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder were featured alongside Vince McMahon himself in a backstage segment. Moreover, they were given another opportunity at the tag titles. The match was too short to tell a well-crafted story and The Revival ended the night with another loss on their resume. To make it worse, they were taken out by a returning Zack Ryder who seems to be interested in reuniting with his former tag team partner.

So what exactly has been happening here? For a moment, it seemed like the WWE realized the errors of their ways and realized that the Top Guys were indeed right. On the very same day, Dash and Dawson were victims of the same lazy booking and now seem to be on a collision course with a tag team from a decade ago. What lies ahead for The Revival from here on?
