WWE Raw Results: Biggest Winners, Losers and Moments from November 30

One week after scoring its lowest television rating in decades, according to Uproxx.com, WWE Raw provided fans with a terrible show Monday night that did none of its Superstars or Divas any favors and, more likely than not, managed to drive away even more of its fanbase.

There was the creation of The League of Nations, a stable consisting of Sheamus, King Barrett, Alberto Del Rio and Rusev that may work to perfection as a midcard act, but as a main event one, it is doomed to failure because of their lack of credibility at that level.

Then there was the sudden character shifts among the Divas, with Charlotte demonstrating heel mannerisms with the presence of her father at ringside, while Brie Bella is apparently now a sympathetic babyface.

Or something like that.

None of the wrestling was particularly good, either.

The fans were this week's biggest losers, undeniably, as they were once again presented with a show that did nothing but hurt their faith in the current creative staff to right the ship.

The one bright spot, though, was the company's attempt to continue positioning Roman Reigns as the top babyface on the show. WWE tapped into a story with a great deal of potential as it tried to turn his friends and family against him by putting at stake the title opportunities they worked so hard to earn.

Only time will tell how that story plays out, or if it is even mentioned again.

Yes, this week's Raw was another exercise in the awful, with a complete lack of interesting angles and the continued misuse of the company's talented roster.

Still, there was a winner or two and a plethora of losers to choose from. 

Loser: Sheamus

The WWE world heavyweight champion looked good in a suit to kick off the show, but that was about where the positives end for the Irishman.

For the second week in a row, he took to the squared circle for the night's opening segment, and no one bought him in the role of the company's lead heel. That continued throughout the night, even with the coronation of The League of Nations faction.

The fact of the matter is that WWE Creative spent so long devaluing Sheamus in countless jobs, and never bothered to begin rebuilding him, that fans simply do not buy into him as a real and honest main event star capable of carrying the company through the recession it is currently in.

Not even a win in the night's main event over Dean Ambrose or the beatdown of Roman Reigns that concluded the broadcast could win the people over, and thus, Sheamus feels more like a transitional champion than anything.

Or, at the very least, one whose reign is doomed to complete and utter failure.

Winners: The New Day

It would not be difficult to try to explain why New Day is awesome and has become the one saving grace of WWE programming lately, but that has become a staple of this Winners and Losers piece, so this writer will spare you the repetition.

Instead, Kofi Kingston, Big E and Xavier Woods earn winner status this week because it is becoming more and more clear that WWE Creative and management recognize their excellent contributions to the program, leading to increased television time, of which there was a plethora this week.

From the opening segment to the WWE Shop ad to the placement of them in the main event alongside Sheamus and his merry bunch of lackeys, it is as if those in power recognize that the trio is one of the only acts currently connecting with the audience and, thus, are determined to at least give the fans what they want in that respect.

They should be careful, though, because overexposing them and altering their gimmick too much will lead to the watering down of the gimmick and the killing of what makes it special.

Loser: Charlotte

So the admirable and resilient Divas champion, who overcame the crushing emotional pain that came along with Paige evoking the name of her dead brother, Reid, now borrows a page from her legendary dad, Ric Flair, and cheats to beat her friend Becky Lynch?

That makes sense somewhere, to someone, but not this writer.

A sudden shift in motivations and character like that suggests that the WWE Creative staff is making it up as they go, with no real endgame for any of the performers they handle.

Is it a neat development to have her father rubbing off on her, with his worst traits becoming her own?

Sure, but to have her act that way when she is supposed to be an honorable babyface against the vile villainess Paige is ridiculous and makes no sense whatsoever.

The silver lining in the entire ordeal is the reintroduction of Becky Lynch into something meaningful.

Even if it features as pathetic a story structure as the current feud does.

Winners: The Dudley Boyz

Just as it looked as though Bubba Ray and D-Von were going to fall deep into the midcard, their return wasted on a mediocre tag feud with New Day, they explode back into relevancy in a rivalry with The Wyatt Family that is sure to result in a high-profile pay-per-view match at TLC.

Bubba Ray and D-Von were motivated Monday night, perhaps the result of old friend Tommy Dreamer making a surprise return for a big brawl segment on Raw.

Fans needed to be reminded of the greatness of the most decorated tag team in wrestling history, and a rivalry with Bray Wyatt, Erick Rowan, Luke Harper and Braun Strowman that injects bits and pieces of the hardcore style they earned a reputation for perfecting is just the way to do it.
