it's good that the wwe and raw writers didnt fall for any gimmicky new years nonsense like "let's be good now" or "start off strong"

I have a love of tag teams so I hate when they just take two guys and decide their a team but I'm liking this storyline.

his booking since whenever the kurt's son angle started has been designed to kill him

Kicking off the year by having literally everyone, including his tag team partner, clown on Jason Jordan is certainly a bold choice

I have to be honest, I'm really digging the whole experienced veteran put together with the overzealous rookie through unforseen circumstances dynamic.

If this eventually becomes Jason Jordan going full heel and admitting to using everyone around him to get somewhere it's going to be awesome, but I feel liek they have no idea where they really want him to go.
