Last nightsRawagain highlighted some bad revisionist history.
How many black WWE Champions have there been?
If you count The Rock, then just the one.
Not when he has promoted several racial characters over the years.
Even the New Day, although they have evolved, were a racially-motivated gimmick when it first debuted.
Then theres Virgil, Kamala, Papa Shango and Akeem The African Dream.
Need I go on?
Then theres the tribute to Jimmy Snuka.
He was the closest anyone got to the bar Hulk Hogan set in the 1980s.
WWE had to acknowledge Snukas death.
But, heres some revisionist history again.
In 2015, Snuka was actually arrested and charged with the murder.
WWE cant just gloss over that, especially when the court proceedings were so recent.
Yet, they did.
WWE … where the history books are written with a pencil and an erasor.

I thought it worked well and the match was very good.
Cedric Alexander beat Brian Kendrick
Ho-hum, another short cruiserweight match.
Its stale, and its a tactic theyve been doing for at least 10 years, if not longer.
The angle to wrap up the show, in particular, is what I thought came across the best.
It added to the moment.
