MATCH OF THE NIGHT: Intercontinental Champion Dean Ambrose vs. United States Champion Kevin Owens
After the Intercontinental Champion was drafted to RAW, the United States Champion wanted to make sure that the "Lunatic Fringe" knew who was the real champion in the "red brand". Kevin Owens and Dean Ambrose collided in the main event of Monday Night RAW, and produced the night's best match. Not only did Ambrose collect the first victory on RAW after moving to the show of the Mondays, but he participated in the main event of his first night back. The Intercontinental Champion is on a roll. Now, it's time to know who will be his challenger from RAW and if SmackDown LIVE will be left without a "mid-card" championship.
MVP OF THE NIGHT (HONORABLE MENTIONS):
The Revival: Knocking off the longest reigning WWE Tag Team Champions of all time twice in a row is a big accomplishment, and the only 2-time NXT Tag Team Champions in history did just that. The Revival are "top guys", and probably the top contenders to the Tag Team titles after Cesaro and Sheamus get their shot.
Nia Jax: She had a pretty awesome night after knocking off the 4-time WWE Women's Champion in Charlotte Flair in a solid match (Jax failed to catch Flair after a moonsault, which could have resulted in a serious injury after Flair bounced with her head directly on the mat). After that, she destroyed the RAW Women's Champion Bayley and Sasha Banks, and also introduced Mickie James and Alexa Bliss to RAW.
MVP OF THE NIGHT: Braun Strowman
Oh. My. God. That was a very savage moment, to say the least. Braun Strowman completely destroyed Roman Reigns and even lifted an ambulance with Roman on the inside. Very awesome footage produced by WWE. Not only was it awesome, but it also elevated Strowman to a able-to-defeat-Lesnar level most superstars would kill to be at. Only one negative critic to be appointed: Roman can't continue to be that respectful and good guy anymore. Cut the crap, make him a dominant S.O.B already.
DA' HELL HAPPENED MOMENT OF THE SHOW: Curt Hawkins introduced to RAW
Hawkins could have easily been drafted to RAW and announced online. Not only that, but it could have helped someone else. Instead, Big Show got the momentum of the scene. Not a nice segment, at all.
Tomorrow I'll be back for the DHH about SmackDown LIVE, to finish this 2-night "Superstar Shake-up" event that is rocking the rosters of both RAW and SmackDown LIVE. Who will be drafted and what will happen tonight, especially with the WWE Championship scene after the #1 contender moved to RAW? See you tomorrow.
