The Undertaker's first match on WWE RAW
The Undertaker is arguably the most high-profile name who is scheduled to appear on RAW's 30th anniversary episode. He has a long and illustrious history with the show, having appeared in the main event of the very first episode.
January 11, 1993, was the day the very first episode of the Monday Night show aired. It unleashed an era of wrestling goodness. Indeed, RAW began from there to become the longest-running weekly episodic television show in history, and in the main event of the first episode was The Phenom himself.
Accompanied by the legendary Paul Bearer, The Deadman took on Damien Demento in the main event contest. Demento landed a few shots, but he was no match for his opponent's dominance. The latter quickly overwhelmed him and obliterated him with his best shots.
Despite staging the briefest of rallies, Demento only managed to anger 'Taker. Bearer called for the finish, and his associate landed the Tombstone Piledriver for the pin and the win. It was an act of mercy from The Phenom, who won the match in short order.
