WWE’s Monday Night RAW on Netflix: A Wild Ride So Far
The highly anticipated first edition of Monday Night RAW on Netflix has kicked off, and it’s been an unforgettable show so far. The evening has seen a string of special appearances by WWE legends, including Triple H, John Cena, and The Undertaker. However, the most surreal moment of the night came when Travis Scott, one of the biggest names in hip-hop, walked Jey Uso to the ring, smoking a blunt and flaunting a custom Hardcore Championship.
A Star-Studded Affair
Travis Scott’s appearance marks a significant milestone for Jey Uso, who has become the go-to guy for WWE’s high-profile celebrity crossovers. It’s a testament to his growing popularity and ability to connect with fans. When you pair one of the world’s biggest stars with Main Event Jey, you can bet it’ll be a hit.
Michael Cole’s Epic Dap-Up
As Travis Scott and Jey Uso made their way to the ring, Michael Cole greeted them with an hilarious dap-up that left everyone in stitches. Cole’s enthusiasm was reminiscent of Gillie’s neighbor from across the street, who’s famous for his energetic Eagles celebration dancing videos.
A Mixed Bag of Emotions
While RAW has been an entertaining show overall, The Rock’s out-of-character promo at the beginning of the night left many fans underwhelmed. He abandoned his signature “Final Boss” persona, opting instead to thank corporate executives and hug Cody Rhodes, killing the tension between Cody and Roman Reigns. It was a rare misstep for The Rock, who seemed more like Dwayne Johnson than his wrestling alter ego.
High-Octane Action
On the other hand, the match between Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa was an adrenaline-fueled thrill ride. John Cena’s declaration for the Royal Rumble also sent shockwaves through the WWE universe. With CM Punk vs Seth Rollins and an appearance by Hulk Hogan still to come, the night is shaping up to be an unforgettable one.
Tech Triumph
One of the most impressive aspects of the night has been Netflix’s seamless technical performance. Unlike the recent Tyson vs Paul event, the streaming giant has delivered a flawless viewing experience.
Hulkamania Runs Wild…Into a Wall
In a shocking turn of events, Hulk Hogan’s appearance was met with a chorus of boos from the crowd. The awkward moment has left many wondering if WWE will continue to feature Hogan in future events. As the saying goes, “You either die a hero or you live long enough to become the villain.”
