Take this for what you may, but Meltzer is reporting that the Raw Underground concept is being shelved. According to him, the latest outbreak made execs change their posture on having NXT and PC recruits around the main talent for the ambience and are now seeking to keep the rosters as segregated as possible. Two of the UG staples, Dabba-Kato and Arturo Ruas, found themselves officially drafted to the Raw roster this past week. #JusticeForLBM wrestlingnews.co/wwe-news/wwe-raw-underground-has-been-canceled/Wonder if this will thin out the Retribution herd as well. Would ask how those dweebs outlasted the UG, but we all should be aware of why that's sticking around thru at least November...

If Raw Underground really is done, Braun Strowman knocking out Dabba Kato was a fitting end. These shirts should be donated to poor African kids now.

Good. One of the dumbest things the WWE has done, and that's saying something!

The idea was interesting when it debuted but of course the WWE found a way to ruin it. Dunn’s famous constant-camera cuts, overly scripted brawls, terrible promos, and Shane screaming like a child on the mic.

The concept didn't do anything for me, but I'm glad that it served as an avenue for Arturo Ruas and Babatunde to get drafted.

It wasn’t a bad idea but the execution was goofy. It’s also ironic that Shane McMahon was the host when he has the least believable punches out of anybody in the company.

It was terrible. From the first minute to the very last second.
This isn’t even an opinion. It’s fact.

I'm probably more disappointed in this than I should be 😂
I was just starting to like it, but I'm not sure if it was ironically or not.

It was supposed to get those 2 guys over, but they got their asses kicked by Dolph Ziggler and Braun Strowman Because of course they did. Still glad they landed somewhere after Evolve got bought out. I always liked watching them there.

Welp bring Shane back to Smackdown so we can finally get a match between him and Bryan.

Good, a concept that could have been good but ultimately failed. Im happy the torture is over.

The report originally came from Tom Colohue, who is about as credible these days as Brad Shepard and RingsideNews.
Sean Ross Sapp has called him out for it, so it seems as if this news is not true.

I’m pretty sure it was reported that it wasn’t actually canceled but it did have something to do with the Covid outbreak. This guy probably read about that and was like “a break? Oh! So you mean it’s CANCELLED??? Lemme tell everyone!!”
