Mojo Rawley took advantage of Brock Lesnar beating Truth on Raw to win the WWE 24/7 title
WWE star Mojo Rawley was at his opportune best on this week’s Raw as he won the 24/7 title from Truth.
Truth had gone out on stage to threaten Paul Heyman with an elimination in the Royal Rumble. However, Brock Lesnar’s advocate reminded the then 24/7 champion that The Best was taking part in the match.
Truth then backed out of the Rumble but Lesnar put him through an F-5. That was enough for Rawley to come and pick up the 24/7 title.
This was Rawley’s second reign as the champion and he vowed to make things different with the title.
Mojo Rawley was in a couple of NFL teams before joining the WWE. However, the 33-year-old suffered injuries while playing football and switched his attention to wrestling while in rehab.
The 24/7 Title was established May 20 2019. Since then, there have been 84 reigns among 34 people. I am the only person to not flee after my victory. I’m changing the landscape of this title. This is no longer the “hide and seek” title. Watch @WWE #RAW to see what I make it. pic.twitter.com/ANKsBy4P00

Madness in the 24/7 title
Rawley is right in suggesting that things have been a little crazy with the 24/7 title.
There have been too many title drops and pick-ups, and it will be interesting to see how the former Hype Bros member does.
Rawley had been given a push by WWE in the past but he couldn’t make the most of it. The 24/7 title has mostly been used for comic relief and Truth had done a great job with it.
However, Rawley seems to be taking it in a different direction and he could hold onto the title for a while.
