Many critics took issue with the sudden shift and lack of an explanation for Reed's new alliance. This included Bully Ray, who said the logic didn't make sense and questioned Seth Rollins' decision to turn one of his most bitter rivals into an ally.
'I still want to know why, and maybe I missed it but I don't think I did, tell me why you're friends…with the guy who hit six Tsunami bombs on you, [and] tried to cave in your ribs, thus ending your career…,' Bully said. 'Why are they friends? Have we gotten that yet…I want to know why you're friends with the guy that…he didn't just try to hit you with a finisher move, he didn't hit you with a splash off the top rope, he didn't hit you with the 400 lbs splash off the top rope once; he did it to you…five, six, seven times, whatever it is.'
WWE finally offers an on-air explanation
However, WWE finally explained the reason behind this alliance on the latest episode of Monday Night RAW when Seth Rollins gave Reed the mic during their in-ring promo segment.

'Bron is a tough act to follow, but so am I,' Reed said. 'I am the man that hit Seth with six Tsunamis, hurting him so badly that it built a respect between you and I. So much so that Seth brought me into this group, brought me into his vision. And with that vision, I will get the respect that I deserve!'
Bronson Reed proceeded to call out Jey Uso ahead of their singles match. 'And Jey Uso, YEET Man, you do not respect me. So tonight, I will Tsunami the respect into you, just like I did Seth 'Freakin' Rollins!'
Jey would pick up the win via DQ only to get hit with multiple Tsunamis by Reed. Check out everything that went down on WWE RAW here.

Carlito Breaks Silence On WWE Departure
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Carlito has opened up about his recent departure from WWE, stating that while he is a professional and will move on, he was not happy with how the company handled his final days. The former United States Champion's contract was not renewed in June, bringing his second run with the company to an end. In a new interview with fellow WWE alum D-Von Dudley, Carlito discussed the circumstances surrounding his exit. He confirmed that it was the company's decision not to renew his contract. How The WWE Run Ended Carlito explained that he was given very little notice about his status. He said WWE informed him just two weeks before his contract expired that they were not re-signing him and that he did not need to come to the final TV tapings. "The contract ended and they wanted me not to renew," Carlito said (H/T to Fightful). "They call it like two weeks out. You don't have to come to the RAW or whatever." He expressed frustration with this approach, feeling that as a veteran, he should have been allowed to finish his duties professionally. "I'm a professional. I don't like that... Treat me like a mark or something. I'll do my job... It's not the end of the world either."

SUNRISE, FLORIDA - AUGUST 19: Liv Morgan, Dominik Mysterio, Finn Balor, JD McDonagh, and Carlito of the Judgment Day stand over Rhea Ripley and Damian Priest during Monday Night RAW at Amerant Bank Arena on August 19, 2024 in Sunrise, Florida.A Historic First Run Carlito's first run with WWE from 2004 to 2010 was marked by immediate and historic success. He burst onto the scene in his SmackDown debut, defeating John Cena to win the United States Championship. The following year, he won the Intercontinental Championship in his Raw debut match. He later formed a highly successful tag team with his brother, Primo. At WrestleMania 25, the duo made history by becoming the first and only team to unify the WWE Tag Team Championship and the World Tag Team Championship. More news: WWE News: Steve Austin Reveals Real-Life Vince McMahon Confrontation After more than a decade away, Carlito made a shocking return at the Backlash premium live event in his native Puerto Rico in 2023. The incredible crowd reaction he received led to him being signed to a full-time contract. He joined the popular Latino World Order (LWO) faction, enjoying a successful babyface run. The final chapter of his WWE return saw him turn heel at WrestleMania 41, betraying the LWO to help Dominik Mysterio. He subsequently joined The Judgment Day, aligning himself with one of the top factions on Raw before his contract expired. Now a free agent, Carlito is already booked for his return to the independent scene, with a match scheduled against Matt Riddle for Big Time Wrestling on July 25th.

Miami's historic Olympia Theater faces transformation into educational hub
The historic Olympia Theater, a landmark once graced by legends like Ella Fitzgerald, Elvis Presley and Luciano Pavarotti, is at the heart of a controversial proposal that could transform the iconic space into an educational hub led by a charter school network. SLAM Miami, along with other local charter groups, including Mater Academy and Somerset, is spearheading an effort to take over the downtown venue. If approved, the City of Miami would eventually deed the property to SLAM, which plans to use the building behind the theater for classrooms and the theater itself for student performances and community events. "So, what we're proposing to do is actually to put programming for the school in the adjoining building, which is the 10-story facility," said Millie Sanchez, co-founder and chief administrative officer of SLAM Schools, during a Zoom meeting Monday night. "The building connects to the theater, and the goal is to re-energize the theater by supplementing the programming." Under the proposal, the school would use the neighboring building for academic purposes, while the theater remains a performance venue, hosting at least 180 days of community programming per year. "If we want people to care about and want this theater to live on for another 100 years, we need to educate," Sanchez said. "What better way than to bring arts programming into the building next door and have students intern and work with professionals in managing this beautiful space." Renovation costs for both the theater and the adjoining building are estimated at more than $50 million. Douglas Rodriguez, principal at Miami Tech and Mater Brickell Academy, said the initiative is backed by nonprofit groups with a history of managing public funding efficiently. "This collaboration is among nonprofit groups that have done this for decades," Rodriguez said. "Combined, we have over $200 million in grants—and we're not doing this at taxpayers' expense." Rodriguez also stressed the long-term value of involving students in cultural preservation. "You create that next generation of students who are going to be interested in preserving theater," he said. "We're only going to be here for a short time—and we need these kids for the next 100 years." Other proposals for the site have included converting it into a hotel or parking structure, but some residents expressed strong support for maintaining its original purpose. "I think it stays as a theater," said Oscar Orellana, a community member. "There's enough hotels and condos. Keeping it as a theater would be a perfect choice to preserve a little history." A final vote on the proposal is scheduled for Thursday, July 24. The Olympia Theater is located in Downtown Miami at 174 East Flagler Street.
