It's the RAW after a wild TLC PPV, and the fallout comes to the Resch Center in Green Bay, Wisconsin. I won't be there thanks to having to work. Again.
The Shield reunion hit a snag thanks to viral meningitis as Roman Reigns was told to stay home. Filling in was Kurt Angle, and the RAW GM helped Ambrose and Rollins win a 5-on-3 handicap match. One would assume that The Miz and crew will not let this go unpunished. Except for Braun Strowman, who may have punishing on his mind after his supposed teammates stuffed him in a dump truck. Will the Monster Among Men unleash some terror in Titletown for the A-Lister, The Bar, and Kane?
With Wyatt also on the shelf as a result of the meningitis scare, Finn Balor locked horns with Smackdown's AJ Styles. The Demon emerged victorious, and now the question becomes, Will THE FEUD THAT NEVER ENDS resume at some point or will both men move on to new pursuits?
SD's World Heavyweight Champion, Jinder Mahal, stunned the world by making a bombshell challenge: he wants to face the Universal Champion Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series. Paul Heyman has promised that the Beast Incarnate WILL be at the Resch tonight, and he WILL have an answer for the Modern Day Maharajah.
Alexa Bliss survived a furious challenge from the beloved Mickie James to retain the RAW Women's Championship, and now she has her sights set on leading RAW's women into battle against SD's women at Survivor Series. There's just one little problem that could complicate that plan. That problem's name is Asuka. After the Empress Of Tomorrow made a statement in her debut by taking down the dangerous Emma, how soon will it be before Bliss becomes the next target?
All this, plus Enzo Amore brings his regained Cruiserweight title to a city familiar with championships, LIVE on Monday Night RAW, 8 Eastern, 7 Central, only on USA Network!

I almost fully expect them to do a full blown "SEND YOUR WELL WISHES TO ROMAN DURING THESE TRYING TIMES, DA BIG DAWG WILL RETURN AND RULE THE RING" and then 5 minutes later say something like "Oh yeah Bray called in sick this week too".
Ok, but on an actual serious note: I'm looking forward to RAW and will watch it for the first time in a month because I know it can't just be a "Look at Roman, he's DA BIG DAWG BEHOLD HIS GLORY" type of episode. They actually have to fill three hours with other people. Will at least be something new and different.

Bryan Alvarez came up with a funny idea that Otis Dozovic should come out on RAW, and they claim it's Braun Strowman after going through the trash compactor. Even Meltzer popped for that.

Raw better open with an "In Memory of Braun Strowman" tribute.

I may have to break my sabbatical tonight and watch just to see when Braun comes back.
That, or just wait for it to show up on YouTube.
Actually, the latter might be better.

I kinda just hope they have Brock and Jinder be captains of the Raw and Smackdown teams, because Brock vs. Jinder one on one is one of the most dire matches on paper I've ever seen.

My attention will be half on this, and half on The Eagles/Redskins Game, so hopefully we have a decent followup And yeah I doubt Roman and the rest are cleared yet, they probably won't be cleared to return until Next Week at the earliest.

Wasn't there a Lesnar vs Bob Holly PPV Main Event? It's at least somewhat fresh. So by default it's better than that Sheamus vs Del Rio INFINITY feud

It's just two terrible champions hyping a probably awful match.

I really like the potential with this "I Know What You Did Last Summer" thing now that Kane, Cesaro, Sheamus and Miz did a really bad thing that they will have to atone for.

I've been wanting a Braun vs. Miz feud/match for the IC Title lately, so hopefully that's what we'll get after Braun rolls through Kane and The Bar.

He pretty much always got good reactions right up to getting released.

Not taking joy in the RAW dudes that are out being sick, but a silver lining is it kinda tends to makes the writers/booking step up there game.

Reigns and Wyatt are definitely two of their most notable load-bearing wrestlers, creative-wise. Once you have your 45-60 minutes of Big Doggery and Wyatt hocus-pocus, they’ve basically got half the show written.
