A Mysterious Faction Debuts on WWE RAW
If you have to describe the latest episode of WWE Monday Night RAW that aired a few hours ago in one word, it will be chaotic. The matches planned, the setup, the helter-skelter, all were signs of a helpless struggle. One thing that did interest most viewers was the constant power outages that kept hampering the show.
During MVP’s match against Apollo Crews, the lights kept flickering. This made MVP frustrated. At one particular moment, he got distracted by the lights, and Apollo Crews was able to pin him.

MVP was determined to get to the bottom of this light fiasco. Later, Kevin Owens experienced mic problems during his segment as well. At first, it was reported that there were in fact some power outage issues.
Charly Caruso reported that the cause of the power outage was the result of boxes falling over backstage. The tech boxes were apparently deliberately pushed over to create a mess.

However, MVP sided with the sensible majority and questioned the validity of boxes falling over and their connection to the power outage. The truth soon unfolded, however.
CCTV footage showed a group of 5 people, throwing what appears to be Molotovs at the power transformer. It soon caught fire as the group cheered, and they ran away a short while after that.
WWE may have just succeeded in getting the attention of viewers
We do not know who these people are, but we do know that they are most probably the faction that WWE teased earlier today. Since they all wore black clothing and their faces turned away from the camera, we do not know who the members are.

We do know, however, that there is a woman among them, as a female voice was clearly audible in the video recording.

Raw may finally have something interesting on its hands, and despite the faction being called the Ninjas, they do look like an entirely different entity altogether.
