Because Legends Night isn't until next week.
It's the last Raw of the year, and this week we have... Um... We have three hours to fill!
All that's advertised for this week so far is Alexa Bliss having something in mind for Randy Orton, so surely there'll be some of that, and also probably build for the Royal Rumble. Also presumably other things!
All... this? and more, tonight on Monday Night Raw!

I guess there will be a Luke Harper graphic to open the show.

I guess there will be a Luke Harper graphic to open the show. And I'm thinking they'll have a video package for him.

I guess there will be a Luke Harper graphic to open the show. I hope they do a ten bell salute. I feel like this one's hit so hard and kind of overshadowing everything else so thoroughly that it's called for.

Last week's show was about as mediocre as it gets, hopefully tonight's is better.

I might actually stay awake through the whole show this time!
No promises, though.

I would understand if they didn't, but at the same time, it would be wonderful if they did do it, just because of how beloved he was throughout the entire community.

I'll admit that tonight will be kinda hard to get fully into, given Brodie/Harper's passing.

Do the graphic at the opening and a video package later in the show. Leave the 10-bell salute for his most recent employer to do first.

Must be a, "Vince is rewriting the show right up until it goes on the air," week this week, weird that they've still announced nothing about this one.

I hope they鈥檙e out on the ramp and give the man a 10-bell salute. He鈥檚 touched so many people in that locker room, it鈥檚 the least he deserves.

It's a tricky one as to whether they do anything beyond an opening graphic and video package for a tribute.
This next bit absolutely isn't directed at anybody here, I'm sure we're all aware that it's a delicate balance and will accept whatever they choose whether it matches what we think or not. If they don't do anything else, you'll have some that say the company is showing a lack of respect to somebody who meant a lot to people. Whereas if they do something more like a 10 bell salute, there'll be others saying that they're trying to overshadow whatever AEW do on Wednesday.
They can't please everybody in this situation, so the simplest thing is probably gather everybody backstage and ask those that knew him what they want to do. I'm sure that there will also be plenty of little individual tributes during matches.

Man, I can鈥檛 buy the overshadowing argument... the man spent a large chunk of his career in this place and had an impact on the entire locker room. The more companies that pay full respect to a great man the better... just imo.

Unless you're one of that minority that we've seem so many times in the past will ignore the important part of a tragedy and use it to write and push their own narrative on things (which you aren't), there's no right or wrong opinion here. I could see this line of thought meandering away and derailing the thread which I don't want to do, so let's just hope it's a kickass show that Brodie would have liked.

Kinda strange in hindsight that they didn't do a Slammys special here but on the Network instead but it doesn't really matter. While I'm rambling I still hope there's a moment at a future Slammys like this again:
