WWE Monday Night Raw continues. Rey is being checked on at the doctor’s table backstage, his eye still covered in blood as Aleister Black stands above him. Seth Rollins and Murphy come in and Seth starts to explain that he doesn’t know what happened out there. Black isn’t hearing it and starts shoving Seth, Murphy takes exception to this and he and Black start brawling until officials separate them. The Viking Raiders and the Street Profits are practicing for their upcoming basketball game next. So I uh, guess I’ll be recapping that game in a moment. We went directly from Rey’s eye socket seemingly being graphically torn apart to… this. It’s been a weird one, y’all.
The game officially begins I guess. But Montez Ford has to explain the rules. They’ll keep it half court and have four five minute quarters. Dawkins and Ivar pass back and forth, Angelo shrugs and says “Thank you” before getting a swift layup. That was a trick apparently. And the Street Profits clearly have the advantage running up the score to 21 points. They say they want the smoke as Erik explains that smoking is not good for you. Viking Raiders try a play for once but they’re horribly inaccurate and seem to lack mad hops. The score is now 55-0 for the Profits. Erik lifts Ivar up for a toss and it still doesn’t go in. At the very last second Erik lands a basket and the Viking Raiders chant about how they won. Street Profits explain that the scoreboard reads 74-2 which means they won by a landslide.
I assume this was a proof of concept for the XBA, Vince’s next foray into professional sports. All I can say is there wasn’t a single dunk in this whole thing and that’s incredibly disappointing. You’re telling me Ford can’t leap high enough for that?
Backstage, Natalya comes up to Shayna Baszler and says exactly this: “Do you know how bad it makes you look to disrespect the miracle that is motherhood?” This just had me howling, it was hilariously unnatural. Shayna runs her down and asks why she even cares when she’ll never be a mother herself. She tells her that the Hart Dynasty will die with her. Even for her standards Shayna is being exceptionally mean today. This will undoubtedly set up a match between the two of them.
