WWE RAW this week had a revitalizing kick-off and conclusion with massive returns. Bron Breakker's wreckage continued on the red brand. He faced Sheamus in a #1 contenders match for the Intercontinental Championship. An interruption by Ludwig Kaiser saw the match end in chaos and a beautifully destructive spear by Breakker.
Let's take a look at the Best and Worst from the latest edition of WWE RAW:
#2. Best: Seth Rollins' surprise return to kick off WWE RAW
Trending
A former WWE writer just went after JBL for his comments HERE
RAW kicked off with Seth 'Freakin' Rollins making his first WWE appearance since WrestleMania 40. The Visionary talked about his focus on Money in the Bank and how he looked forward to regaining the World Heavyweight Championship.
He was interrupted by Damian Priest who talked about his recent conquests. He challenged Seth Rollins to a title match at Money in the Bank, which was later made official.
The Visionary's return was a refreshing way to kickstart WWE RAW and set the gears into motion for the next few Premium Live Events.
#1. Worst: Drew McIntyre quits WWE
Drew McIntyre has had a rough weekend ever since Clash at the Castle. The Scottish Warrior suffered a second loss at the Premium Live Event. All at the hands of his arch nemesis CM Punk.
This week on WWE RAW, McIntyre set out to make an announcement and address fans on the situation. He seemed annoyed and said, 'I can't do this anymore. Scr*w this company, I quit.'
Triple H and Adam Pearce approached him backstage, but Drew McIntyre was too miffed to have a conversation. He then proceeded to walk away and exited the arena. The 39-year-old has the right to be furious, given the events that transpired over the weekend.
However, rumor has it that his rash decision might have something to do with his wife undergoing emergency surgery during his title match at Clash at the Castle. There is no confirmation on the matter.
A move like this seems befitting of the situation, but it also makes him look weak and gives into Punk's taunts.
#1. Best: Uncle Howdy's spine-chilling return to WWE RAW
Uncle Howdy marked the date of RAW as his comeback after a little more than a year. The character played by Bo Dallas first appeared alongside his brother, the late Bray Wyatt, back in 2023.
With QR Codes and creepy vignettes, Howdy was set to make a return with a new faction by his side. He made his debut following the RAW main event, which featured Jey Uso earning his spot in the men's Money In the Bank ladder match next month.
Uncle Howdy's return paid tribute to Bray Wyat's WWE comeback in 2022. The faction hinted at a new name, 'Wyatt Sicks.' It had Nikki Cross potentially playing Abbey The Witch since Alexa Bliss was heavily associated with Sister Abigail, Erick Rowan as Ramblin Rabbit, Joe Gacy as Huskus the Pig, and Dexter Lumis as Mercy The Buzzard. They did what they promised to do and set a massacre backstage on WWE RAW.
