Raw Fake Rankings, 12/31/2020

Men’s heavyweight singles division - babyfaces

Drew McIntyre (WWE world champion)

Sheamus

Keith Lee

Ricochet

Men’s heavyweight singles division - heels

Randy Orton

Bobby Lashley (WWE United States champion)

AJ Styles

MVP

Elias

Mustafa Ali

Unranked: Akira Tozawa, Angel Garza, Drew Gulak, Humberto Carrillo, Jaxson Ryker, Mace, Slapjack, T-Bar

It feels like the real direction for the main event involves the intrigue between Drew McIntyre and Sheamus, with the Miz in the background with his Money in the Bank contract.  Sounds like a pretty solid plan to kick off the year 2011, with fresh young talent that...wait, I’m being handed a bulletin.  Tomorrow is 2021.

Seriously, though, the Sheamus storyline is at least novel, in that he never really turned babyface but--by virtue of his association with McIntyre--he’s all but ceased acting as a heel except to tease turning on Drew someday.  And they seem to be doing a better job than usual protecting a guy (Lashley) to set up a money match down the line.  (Although I’m not sure what that match is, since Lashley already challenged McIntyre and lost.)  And I suppose they have a plan for Randy Orton vs. Bray Wyatt, even if I don’t get it.

However, Raw has struggled to make new stars.  (McIntyre’s 2020 push has been a success, but I’d call that a do-over from when they dropped the ball on him in 2009-2013).  Keith Lee’s run on this brand has been a critical failure.  Elias is about 5% wrestler and 95% cheap heat skits, and now he’s got Ryker standing around helping him not wrestle much.  Ricochet and Ali’s Retribution stable are in a battle of losers.  The Hurt Business is getting over as a top heel group, but they have a median age of 45 and they’re running out of hot faces to fight.

What will make Raw interesting in 2021 is that the brand is truly painted into a corner.  The show hit record low rating multiple times in 2020, and tried a lot of quick-fix hot angles that went nowhere.  The big arrivals this year didn’t make much of an impact, and indeed they’ve eroded the fandom’s faith in “calling up someone from NXT for a big push on Raw.”  So what else can they try?  We’ll soon find out.

Men’s tag team division - babyfaces

The Hardy Bros - Jeff Hardy & Matt Riddle

The New Day - Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods

Lucha House Party - Gran Metalik & Lince Dorado

Men’s tag team division - heels

Cedric Alexander & Shelton Benjamin (Raw tag team champions)

The Miz (Mr. Money in the Bank) & John Morrison

I’m not even totally sure Riddle and Hardy are a long-term team, but I guess WWE has already trademarked “Hardy Bros” so for now they believe they’re sticking with that.  Lucha House Party showed up on the December 30 NXT to feud with Legado del Fantasma, which sure sounds like they’re leaving Raw for good, but we’ll have to wait and see.

Women’s singles division - babyfaces

Nikki Cross

Women’s singles division - heels

Reckoning

Raw’s women’s division is currently revolving around the tag title, so the singles division amounts to the women who don’t have tag partners right now.  Incidentally, I’m very surprised that the Alexa Bliss-Nikki Cross split ended without either of them really turning heel.

Women’s tag team division - babyfaces

Asuka (Raw women’s champion) & Charlotte Flair (WWE women’s tag team champions)

Dana Brooke & Mandy Rose

Women’s tag team division - heels

Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler

Lacey Evans & Peyton Royce

Jax and Baszler were kinda thrown together as a monster super-team a while back, which then led to them picking on Lana, which then led to Asuka offering to help Lana go after the tag title, which somehow led to Asuka and Flair as the tag champions.  Meanwhile, WWE went to all the trouble of repackaging Rose and Royce as solo acts just to turn around and put them in new teams for lack of any other ideas. 

I suppose you could build up the tag division from these four makeshift teams, but I don’t expect they will.  It’s all just in service to Asuka and Flair inevitably feuding over the singles title.  Once that gets going, I would imagine Asuka and Flair will do a “lose the tag title through miscommunication” thing and the belts will go to Evans and Royce, and get lost in the shuffle just like every time Royce and Billie Kay got the belts.

No matches in 30 days: Alexa Bliss, Dabba-Kato, Erik, Omos, R-Truth (WWE 24/7 champion), Titus O’Neil, Tucker

Dabba-Kato has yet to wrestle an actual match on Raw, and hasn’t been seen since Raw Underground was shelved.  Omos also hasn’t had a match yet, and technically isn’t even listed on WWE’s official roster.  I’m not sure what the in-ring future is for Bliss--her association with Bray Wyatt is money, but I don’t foresee it leading to a lot of women’s matches.

I’m starting to wonder if WWE has actually lost interest in the 24/7 title, given that nobody seems to have chased R-Truth around for it in a while.  It’s one of those things that can keep running on autopilot, well after they stop putting in actual effort--not unlike the original WWE hardcore title that inspired it--but now they don’t even seem to be doing that.

Part-time/semi-retired: Shane McMahon, The Big Show, Triple H

Shane was brought back in 2020 as the spokesperson for Raw Underground, so when that idea got canned, he disappeared as well.  So it’s really hard to imagine how he could return, since his primary value to WWE is to make an unexpected return to hype some new hotshot idea, and they literally just tried and failed to do that.  And it wouldn’t make much since for him to “invade” with a hotshot new faction, considering they still haven’t wound down Retribution.

Inactive

Andrade (elective surgery)

Becky Lynch (maternity leave)

Braun Strowman (storyline - indefinite suspension)

Bray Wyatt (storyline - burnt to a crisp)

Edge (right arm - triceps tear)

Ivar (neck - cervical vertebrae injury)

Jinder Mahal (right knee - unspecified injury)

Lana (storyline - head and left knee injuries)

Mickie James (nose - collapsed nasal cavity)

Naomi (abdomen - myomectomy)

Riddick Moss (knee - ACL tear)

Samoa Joe (concussion)

It was never entirely clear why Strowman was taken off TV, but I would assume he’ll back in time for the Royal Rumble, unless he’s dealing with an injury.  Similarly, I’m sure Wyatt will be back by the end of January, having magically recovered from being immolated by Randy Orton.  It’s interesting, though, that Wyatt and Orton will be settling their differences right around the time Edge is expected to return to renew his rivalry with Orton.  Is it possible Orton could go 2-0 with Wyatt to build him up for Edge?  And if so, how does Orton finish off Wyatt in a way that can top burning him alive?

Lana should be available to return whenever WWE needs, but it’s tough to gauge whether they’re waiting for the right moment in her story with Nia Jax, or if they’ve given up on all that and will leave her on the bench until they think of some totally new gimmick for her.

For the record, Andrade and James were in the 2020 draft pool but never picked, so technically they can show up on any brand once they return to action.  Lynch, Edge, Ivar, Mahal, and Joe weren’t even included in the draft pool, but I think that had more to do with their lengthy time away than anything else.  Regardless, I wouldn’t count on any of these performers leaving Raw anytime soon.

2K Games is getting ready to release the latest entry in the WWE 2K series with WWE 2K20. This seems to be a rather ambitious project which will bring a lot of new features for gamers to enjoy.

MyPlayer & MyCareer

For the first time ever in the franchise, gamers will be able to create and play with a male and female MyPlayer in MyCareer mode.

Of course, if we’re bringing female characters for MyPlayer, it only means we should be able to have a Mixed Tag. This is coming, too. You’ll be able to play as both superstars, and you’ll team up together in different mixed tag team matches throughout your career.

Expect to go through 18 different chapters in your career, including aroun 100 different matches and interacting with over 40 WWE Superstars from every brand, as well as legends during this game mode.

At A Glance

[su_spoiler title=”MyCareer at a glance” style=”fancy”]

For the first time ever, create both a female and male MyPLAYER and take them through MyCAREER, playing storylines and matches as each character and occasionally teaming together with the all-new Mixed Tag match feature.

Unlock WWE Legends, Career specific Superstar attires, original characters and unique environments like “Hell’s Colosseum” and a special New Day themed arena.

At one point, Red and Tre cross through an interdimensional portal to try to find the Undertaker who hasn’t been seen in years, encountering various surprises along the way.

MyCAREER is fully voiced again, this year featuring performances from nearly over 40 WWE Superstars, NXT Superstars and legends in addition to over 15 original voiced roles. Interact with newly-voiced Superstars such as Ronda Rousey, The New Day, Becky Lynch, Adam Cole, Velveteen Dream, The IIconics, Samoa Joe and more.

Track Red and Tre’s career progress with “The List” – as teenagers Red and Tre write down all the goals they’d like to someday achieve, which later becomes their road map to success. Can you cross off their final list item and get inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame?

At certain points in MyCAREER, the decisions you make affect the matches Red and Tre compete in, who they team with, and possibly even lead to some alternate outcomes. Explore different choices to see what paths they might lead you down.

Podcasts are back this year, including “The Buzz and Cole Show” featuring the return of Buzz and Cole Quinn from WWE2K19’s MyCAREER.

[/su_spoiler]

[su_spoiler title=”By the numbers” style=”fancy”]

18 chapters

Approximately 100 total matches

Over 2,700 lines of dialogue

More than 900 lines of new commentary unique to MyCAREER matches and cutscenes

Over 270 cutscenes

Around 20 hours of total play-through time

34 career goals on Red and Tre’s List

1 bionic arm

[/su_spoiler]

Soundtrack

If there’s one piece of the game that becomes key for WWE 2K20 is its soundtrack. We are normally able to just leave the game running on the homepage and listen to all the cool music. This won’t be any different as we’ll have some nice music besides the obvious superstars’ entrance music.

WWE 2K20 will include the following 12 tracks:

Banks – “Gimme”

Barns Courtney – “99”

Bring Me The Horizon ft. Dani Filth – “Wonderful Life”

Grandson – “Stigmata”

Lil Uzi Vert – “XOTour Llif3”

Motley Crue ft. Machine Gun Kelly – “The Dirt”

Muse – “The Dark Side”

Poppy – “METAL”

Saweetie – “Icy Girl”

The Black Keys – “LO / HI”

The Misfits – “Hybrid Moments”

Watt ft. Post Malone – “Burning Man”

You can get this playlist on Apple Music.

What about My Universe?

  I don’t know about all of you, but when it comes to WWE 2K games, I focus quite strongly on the Universe mode right after I’m done with MyCareer. This all means that we need a well debugged version of this game mode. Here’s everything you’ll get in this mode.

[su_spoiler title=”Universe Features” style=”fancy”]

Major and minor show match limits have increased from 7 to 9.

Pay-Per-View match limits have doubled from 7 to 14.

The number of championship titles per major show has increased from 6 to 7.

Simultaneous rivalries on major shows have increased from 3 to 4.

Pay-Per-Views can be co-hosted by up to 3 major shows versus the previous 2.

Players have more freedom to delete and add promos and matches.

50 of the most-used cutscenes have been reshot with female mocap actors to look more authentic when female Superstars are used.

25 new cutscenes have been added.

3,040 new promo lines are in the game.

Custom Matches can now be included in Match Tables, along with new Mixed Tag Matches.

New Championship Match setting in Match Tables can be used to make certain matches a title match.

Main Event matches in Match Tables have been tweaked so that those match types are more likely to occur on the show (Example: Royal Rumble match at the Royal Rumble Pay-Per-View).

New rivalry content includes options such as low-intensity enemies making peace after a single Pay-Per-View or low to mid-intensity allies slowly falling out over several weeks instead of a sudden turn.

The overall menu flow has been streamlined to make it more accessible to those new to Universe Mode. All deeper options are still available for experienced players.

[/su_spoiler]

What about the full roster?

Where should I begin with this?

We have a huge roster this time around. Let’s check out some lists:

Raw Fake Rankings, 6/5/2021

Men's singles division - babyfaces

Drew McIntyre

Damian Priest

Jeff Hardy

Angel Garza

Jaxson Ryker

Ricochet

Humberto Carrillo

Mansoor

Shelton Benjamin

R-Truth

Men's singles division - heels

Bobby Lashley (WWE world champion)

Sheamus (WWE United States champion)

Elias

Jinder Mahal

John Morrison

Mustafa Ali

Drew Gulak

Cedric Alexander

Akira Tozawa (WWE 24/7 champion)

Since Wrestlemania, Raw has tried to do some things with Garza, Mahal, Carrillo, Ricochet, Gulak, Alexander, Benjamin, and Mansoor. But none of it has really had any lasting impact to build them up as key players in this division. At the moment, it feels like the Elias-Ryker breakup will be more prominently featured than any of those other guys, but that's mostly because it just started and hasn't had time to be neglected.

The only guys on this list who feel like major attractions are McIntyre, Lashley, Sheamus, and Priest. McIntyre and Lashley keep fighting over and over. Sheamus is making all the midcard faces look like chumps. Priest is making all the midcard heels look like chumps. I assume at some point we'll get Priest vs. Sheamus, and then McIntyre vs. Sheamus and Lashley vs. Priest a million times.

It's probably worth calling attention to Jeff Hardy, if only because I keep forgetting he's not out with a knee injury. Of late, Hardy has spent as much time on the filler show Main Event as he has on Raw, and he hasn't won a match since February 1. I don't know if that means anything, but it's a strange way to use a guy with his star power. (In spite of all that, I still consider him the #3 babyface on the brand; that's how badly I think the rest of the roster has been misused.)

Men's tag team division - babyfaces

RK-Bro - Randy Orton & Matt Riddle

Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods

Lucha House Party - Gran Metalik & Lince Dorado

Men's tag team division - heels

AJ Styles & Omos (Raw tag team champions)

T-Bar & Mace

Orton and Riddle are doing the bit where the wacky guy can't figure out that his tag team partner hates him, and it's hard to believe that won't lead to a breakup soon. Then again, Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross were together just a little over a year, and the split was less "Alexa was using Nikki all along" and more "Alexa got possessed or some shit idk."

Women's singles division - babyfaces

Rhea Ripley (Raw women's champion)

Asuka

Nikki Cross

Naomi

Women's singles division - heels

Charlotte Flair

I'm listing Ripley as a face mainly because I read that the fans on the video wall at the Thunderdome are told to cheer for her. That's a stupid reason to consider someone a pro wrestling good guy, but I think it's hilarious that this is the only way to tell, so I'm going with it. Anyway, they're turning Cross into a goof (moreso than before), and Naomi was barely doing anything before her tag team partner was fired.

This division is a joke, which is crazy to say because I think all five of these women are great, but it is.

Women's tag team division - babyfaces

Dana Brooke & Mandy Rose

Women's tag team division - heels

Shayna Baszler & Nia Jax

There's only two teams here. Brooke and Rose once walked out of a match against Baszler and Jax because they decided they didn't want to get beat up. Baszler just lost a match to Jax's manservant, or whatever Reginald is.

No matches in 30 days: Alexa Bliss, Bray Wyatt, Erik, Ivar, Keith Lee, MVP, Reckoning, Shanky, Slapjack, Titus O'Neil, Veer

I've got Jinder Mahal's new cronies, Veer and Shanky, listed in italics because they still not listed on WWE.com's official Raw roster. (Actually, Veer is still on the site under his NXT name, Rinku.)

There was a report a while back that Slapjack (Shane Thorne) and Recknonig (Mia Yim) were headed to Smackdown, but that still hasn't happened, so as far as I'm concerned they're still technically Raw personnel.

Wyatt has been off TV since Bliss turned on him and essentially took over his spot. I've read rumors that he's dealing with some personal issues, but frankly that's none of our business unless he wants to address it publicly. What matters here is that I don't have enough information to list him as inactive, and there appears to be no timetable for him to return. (Same deal with Keith Lee, who's been out for months and nobody's saying why, not even to imply that it could be a concussion.)

Ironically, Bliss has been out of action longer than Wyatt. If they're serious about booking her like Wyatt's Fiend character, that will be the norm. Despite being a heavily-pushed title contender in the men's division, Bray has only wrestled 17 televised matches in the past two years. Based on that pattern, I expect each of Bliss's matches will be spaced apart by weeks and weeks of promos and skits.

Part-timers/semi-retired: Triple H, Reginald, Shane McMahon

Inactive

Becky Lynch (maternity leave)

Lacey Evans (pregnancy)

Riddick Moss (knee - ACL tear)

The Miz (knee - ACL tear)

It's been six months since Lynch gave birth, and fans are going nuts waiting for her to return. At this point you might as well hold off until Summerslam, and do her first match back in front of the biggest, hottest crowd possible. Unfortunately at this point I don't think any one person, not even Becky, can turn the entire WWE women's division around.
