Stephanie McMahon risks wrath of WWE Universe with surprising RAW photo

Stephanie McMahon risked the wrath of the WWE Universe by sharing a surprising photo ahead of the upcoming edition of the red brand. Tonight's show will be historic, as it is the first episode of RAW on Netflix.

The New Day recently turned heel and betrayed Big E after he offered to become their manager on the December 2 edition of the red brand. Wrestling fans have been booing the faction mercilessly ever since and Rey Mysterio recently kicked the duo out of the locker room.
