Original Raw Plans
There were a couple of last minute changes on Raw last night.
The original plan was to have Enzo Amore face Neville according to PWInsider, but it was changed to Kalisto instead, who ended up actually winning the title.
The Enzo vs. Kalisto match was originally announced for TLC, and it still will likely happen there. We’ll see if WWE does another thing where they have a title change on Raw just for the hell of it, then return the title to Enzo at the PPV.
There was a five way women’s match last night on Raw, with Emma winning for the right to face Asuka at TLC. The original plan was a triple threat match between Emma, Nia Jax and Alicia Fox, which was then changed to a six woman tag match, which was finally changed to the five way match with Bayley and Sasha Banks added.
