RAW this week started with an epic triple threat tag team title match between The Alpha Academy, RK-Bro, and Seth Rollins, and Kevin Owens. It went on for close to half an hour as all three teams attempted to secure the titles and their spot at WrestleMania 38. The great match came to an end with a huge title change. Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens’ storyline has been a little aimless, with no clear aim. Winning the RAW Tag Team Championship would have been their confirmed ticket to WrestleMania 38. Unfortunately for The Alpha Academy, they couldn’t reserve their spot at the grandest stage of them all either.
Instead, it was the most popular tag team in WWE RK-Bro who would go on to regain the RAW Tag Team Championship after Riddle pinned Chad Gable. It was an incredible sequence that witnessed Gable receive a splash, a stunner, and then a stomp. While Rollins was in the perfect position to get the pin and win, Riddle emerged at the right time to throw him out and steal it.
#RKBro did it!!!!!

Randy Orton provided a big assistance as he held Kevin Owens’ legs to prevent him from interrupting the pinfall. Rollins and Owens were both upset backstage after losing the titles.This also marks the end of Alpha Academy’s championship reign as they were defeated. It remains to be seen when they get a rematch for the championship.
