Bengaluru, November 9: On an eventful night of WWE Monday Night Raw, a Wrestlemania headliner returned to change the equation for the annual Survivor Series event.
During the show, the WWE Champion squared off against a young opponent while he also suffered an ambush following the main-event battle between two former world champions.
Plus, a new number-one contender for the Raw Women’s Title was decided on the show that took place from the KFC Yum! Center in Louisville, Kentucky.
Check out the recap and results from the November 8 episode of Monday Night Raw:
– This week’s edition of Raw got kicked off with Seth Rollins cutting a promo in the ring. Seth claimed to be in charge of leading Team RAW to victory over SmackDown at Survivor Series 2021. He also proclaimed winning the WWE Championship from Big E in the near future.
Seth then verbally targeted Kevin Owens, his scheduled opponent for the night as he mentioned Owes to be 'a paramecium, an amoeba, and the biggest loser in the world.’ Owens came out and went after him, but Seth escaped from the scene.
