WWE Raw 5 Takeaways: Bayley fails to support Sasha Banks again

4. Natalya and Lana are teaming up

Natalya absolutely lost it after her loss to Shayna Baszler a couple of weeks ago, tearing up the set of the Kevin Owens Show. (And that hilariously led to Owens removing the set beforehand in order to avoid Natalya doing the same thing on a later episode of WWE Raw.)

On this week’s episode, Nattie started chewing out Liv Morgan backstage, blaming her younger tag partner for making “rookie mistakes” in a loss to the IIconics. It was completely unfair for Nattie to do this, showing that she is on the road to fully turning heel again. And honestly, Nattie has generally been far more interesting as a heel. (Note her classic rivalry with Nikki Bella.)

Natalya and Lana then seemed to identify with each other’s completely different predicaments backstage, and it seems like they will come together to form a tag team to give the WWE Raw Women’s Division another (easy) challenger for the Boss’N’Hug Connection.

5. Andrade and Angel Garza aren’t on the same page

Zelina Vega threatened to walk out on Andrade and Angel Garza after El Idolo didn’t exactly provide his stablemate with much support outside the ring. The faction already dumped off Austin Theory, who joined Seth Rollins shortly after, and they are not on the same page.

WWE fans want to see Vega compete for the Raw Women’s Championship sooner rather than later, but her managerial expertise is imperative for Andrade and Garza right now. After so many years together and with Andrade’s world title destiny yet to be fulfilled on Raw or SmackDown, it would be weird to see him on the screen without Vega.

It’s a situation to watch closely in the coming weeks, but it’s likely a tease and nothing more. But if anything were to happen, Garza branching off on his own as a babyface could be great.
