AEW made a huge statement with its inaugural show Double or Nothing. Fans were eagerly waiting to see a response from WWE this week. Vince McMahon's company did not give a convincing reply as RAW failed to meet the expectations this week. The WWE Champion Kofi Kingston and Universal Champion Seth Rolins opened the show and Brock Lesnar soon joined the two men.

We saw a different side to the Beast Incarnate this week. Seth Rollins main-evented the show against Sami Zayn and the champion won the bout. Baron Corbin will face Seth Rollins at Super ShowDown after the latter became the number one contender of the most coveted prize of the red brand. Shane McMahon destroyed one of Roman Reigns' cousins but the Big Dog came out to rescue.

Cesaro and Ricochet undoubtedly offered the best bout of the night after the two men faced each other twice in two weeks. Following an injury, it was revealed that Rey Mysterio will relinquish the US Championship next week. Becky Lynch and Nikki Cross defeated the IIconics in a tag team match, while Dolph Ziggler assaulted Kofi Kingston.

Though it was not a stupendous edition of the flagship show, it had some great moments. Here we discuss the three greatest moments from Monday Night RAW this week.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE


#3 R-Truth defended the 24/7 Title at The Usos' BBQ party

The new 24/7 Title was introduced last week and we saw three champions on its first night. R-Truth won the belt on RAW last week and he has been successfully defending the title multiple times. Earlier, a large number of fans were sceptical about the new title but R-Truth has made the belt exciting.

R-Truth defended the belt on SmackDown Live last week as well. Similarly, he was chased by a number of Superstars on the red brand. The Usos held a BBQ party where several Superstars were present. The 24/7 Champion crashed the party.

Kalisto tried to pin R-Truth at the BBQ party but the champion survived. Karl Anderson also attempted to pin him but he was unsuccessful. Subsequently, R-Truth managed to escape the party and he is still the champion. R-Truth's comedy gravitates the attention of fans and it was one of the most exciting segments of RAW this week.

#2 Sami Zayn mentioning AEW

The Electric Chair segment starring Sami Zayn was undeniably one of the best segments of RAW, in my opinion. Zayn, who immediately turned heel after his return, has been dissing the WWE Universe for weeks. The former NXT Champion took it to the next level on the red brand this week. Zayn sat in an electric chair and answered several questions from the fans.

The first fan asked Zayn about his retirement date and he gave a fitting answer by insulting Kansas City, where RAW was held this week. Sami Zayn took a shot at Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch while answering the second question. Being a great heel, Zayn threatened to punch the fan who asked the third question. As a matter of fact, he also bashed America when he answered the third question.

The best part of the segment came when he was asked the fourth question. Zayn was asked about the Universal Championship and he took the name of AEW. The fans were stunned as Zayn mentioned Tony Khan's company.

#1 Brock Lesnar's hilarious dance

There is no denying that Brock Lesnar is one of the most feared men in Vince McMahon's billion dollar company. He is an intimidating persona with great success in Mixed Martial Arts. Though Lesnar is known for his dominating character, we saw a different side to the Beast Incarnate on RAW this week. In fact, he has been highly entertaining after winning the Money in the Bank briefcase at XL Center.

Lesnar showed up after Seth Rollins called out the Beast. Lesnar's music hit but it was changed into different music. The former Universal Champion was dancing during his entrance. As a matter of fact, Lesnar started to show his dance moves in the squared circle as well.

Moreover, Lesnar changed the Money in the Bank briefcase into a boombox. The briefcase got a new design and the Beast was clearly enjoying the moment. Without a shadow of a doubt, it was one of the most hilarious moments from the flagship show in recent months. Lesnar's comical segment was unexpected but the fans certainly loved it.
