WWE RAW 17th August 2015- 3 things that worked

The go-home show for Summerslam promised to be a huge show and it more or less stuck to that promise. Even though there weren’t many big announcements except one, most of the matches and promos on this show were very well performed that it makes the 4-hour spectacle a must watch for most ardent fans. Summerslam is a big deal so the go- home show had to make it feel like one as well.Here are the three things that worked for the go- home show and in turn gave fans more reason than one to watch the PPV-

#3 Reigns Vs Harper

Brothers

Even though both teams aren’t in their original team formation, but the tag match between Ambrose, Reigns and Harper, Wyatt is very well anticipated.

Reigns and Harper had a really good match on Raw that was not only appreciated by the crowd but it makes their encounter on Sunday all the more worth waiting for. There isn’t much of a story that Creative worked upon. It’s the same story that worked during their past feuds when Rollins and Rowan were part of their teams. But that story is good enough to be transitioned into this situation as well.

Also, Brooklyn will lap it all up.

#2 Jon Stewart- The Host

Summerslam Host

The big announcement made on Raw is the fact that Jon Stewart, the legendary former Daily Show host, will host Summerslam. This is great for many reasons. Firstly, Stewart is a great host, that is pretty clear. But you may cite that this is a wrestling show.

But the last time we saw Stewart, he actually had a confrontation with Rollins on Raw and it was very well done. It showed that Stewart has a decent knowledge about what he’s talking about in the realm of WWE. He also played a great part in that segment being hilarious and apprehensive at the right moments.

#1 The Returns

The Champ is Back

Cena gave his typical promo and Ziggler came out to continue the awful feud that is between him, Lana and Rusev. But the fact of the matter is that Summerslam is coming and with Ziggler re- signing with WWE and Cena returning and confirming his presence at Summerslam means a big deal because that triggers that Summerslam is here and so are the big stars.

The crowd reacted arduosly to Cena and Ziggler and that should have made it clear to everyone,
