Monday Night Raw Recap

Monday Night Raw was back again at the PC and here's a recap of what happened.
We saw a promo package to hype up the upcoming Brock Lesnar vs. Drew McIntyre match at WrestleMania. This started Raw this week. 

Paul Heyman and Brock were standing in the the ring. Heyman cut a promo to explain why Brock will remain champion after next weekend. They replayed a match going back to the 2015 Royal Rumble where Brock Lesnar defended the WWE Title against John Cena and Seth Rollins in a triple threat match. 

AJ Styles was up next, he cut a promo for his match vs. The Undertaker, this show is only an hour in at this point, we've got two more hours of this! Anyway, the main takeaway was that Styles challenged the Phenom to a boneyard match. 
It was announced that Street Profits will defend the tag titles against Angel Garza & Andrade. Before that, Garza and Andrade won their tag match against Ricochet and Cedric Alexander.

The tag team matches continued as the Street Profits defeated some random team from NXT. They showed footage from their YouTube Channel of R Truth winning back the 24/7 title again. Shayna Baszler joined Charly Caruso in the ring to further the build up her match against Becky Lynch. Lynch attacked Baszler from behind with a steel chair. 

Aleister Black defeated Leon Ruff. 

Kevin Owens called out Seth Rollins; Rollins responded. It was a good promo to watch like I'm sure their match will be. They showed another match to fill time. This time it was a match from WrestleMania 34 where Charlotte defeated Asuka to remain SmackDown women's champion. 

Randy Orton accepted Edge's challenge to a Last Man Standing Match. This segment closed out this episode of Monday Night Raw.
The first hour of this episode was a struggle but business picked up and overall it was a decent one to watch. The predictions for WrestleMania 36 will be available to read soon. There may or may not be a NXT recap as it depends what is shown on Wednesdays episode. There will be a SmackDown recap though, until then, Thanks for reading.
