In this article, we will be looking at three reasons the babyface team suffered a loss in the main event of RAW before Survivor Series.

#3. The babyface side is already stronger

Talking about the heroic group, it includes World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk, Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, and Roman Reigns. The group already seems stronger against Team Vision despite having Brock Lesnar on their side.

So, to make the match more interesting to watch, WWE prefers to give the advantage to the villainous side. This might be why Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul secured the victory on Monday Night RAW and gained the upper hand for their team.

#2. WWE is pushing Logan Paul

Logan Paul made his WWE return and was immediately inserted into the high-profile storyline. Usually, part-timers like the OTC and The Beast Incarnate get such bookings from the Stamford-based promotion.

However, the YouTuber pinning The Usos to win the advantage match is a subtle sign that Triple H is pushing the former United States Champion.

This might be another reason why Team Vision won the advantage match on Monday Night RAW, as it will elevate the momentum of Logan Paul and his team ahead of Survivor Series.

#1. To generate heat between the OG Bloodline members

In the opening segment of WWE RAW, Roman Reigns made it clear that his hatred for Paul Heyman and The Vision is the sole reason why he joined Team Punk for WarGames.

This made it clear that the Head of the Table has nothing to do with The Usos and is not there to protect them after what happened at Crown Jewel 2025. Earlier, CM Punk and Cody Rhodes were planning to enter the WarGames advantage match, but The Usos took their spot by putting their experience as tag team partners.

Despite this, they suffered a loss that could cause tension among the OG Bloodline members. If Team CM Punk suffers a loss at Survivor Series, Roman Reigns might blame the Samoan Twins for the failure, as they lost the advantage match, leading to their defeat in the double cage showdown.
