Let's be honest here, WWE needed to have a strong showing tonight ratings wise and Roman Reigns starting things off on Monday Night Raw was a great way to go about it. At least this way, it gave The WWE Universe something to entice them into watching the opening segment and gave them a taste of what happens when Reigns and Vince McMahon's paths cross.

With that being said and WWE going up against The NBA playoffs and several other highly rated shows in the Monday Night slot, this was probably the one way that WWE could keep everyone on their toes. It also set the stage for what would again become one of the most iconic episodes of Monday Night Raw in history, which was just amazing to watch.

In all honesty, WWE had its work cut out this week and it delivered a crushing blow to its competition by putting the Big Dog on their biggest weekly stage. They also created something special in the process and may have given even the most skeptical of fans a reason to watch the product again the future.
