First the I like to say is RIP to Bobby “The Brain” Heenan! Welcome to the go-home show of Monday Night Raw from San Jose, CA. No Mercy takes place this weekend and they tried to sell everyone on the PPV on the WWE Network. In the main event, Brock Lesnar defends the Universal Championship against Braun Strowman. In the other main event, Roman Reigns will battle John Cena as they have traded personal jabs on each other. On this edition of Monday Night Raw, we saw Jason Jordan earn the right to face Miz for the Intercontinental title. Seth Rollins & Dean Ambrose defend their tag titles against former champs, Cesaro & Sheamus. With the return of Bayley, Alexa Bliss defends her title against Bayley, Emma, Sasha Banks and Nia Jax. Let’s see what the top moments were from this edition of Monday Night Raw.
10- Apollo Crews hit his finishing move on Curt Hawkins for the win.
9- Neville kicked Gran Metalik as he done a moonsault from the top rope and locked him in the Crossface for the win.
8- Bray Wyatt hit Sister Abigail on Goldust aka Dustin Rhodes for the win.

4- As Nia Jax was about to attack Sasha Banks & Alexa Bliss, Bayley returned and they all worked together to take down Nia Jax.

2- Roman Reigns called out Cena by playing an old clip when Cena called out the Rock for always not being around and putting Hollywood ahead of the WWE.
1- Jason Jordan hit his finishing move on Curtis Axel to pick up the win and earn the title shot against Miz on Sunday. Afterwards, Miz came in the ring and tried to attack Jordan, but was met with suplexes, but the Miz-tourage attack him and Miz finished him with the Skull Crushing Finale.
What did you think about this edition of Raw? What were your favorite moment? Before I go, let me say that Bobby Heenan was one of my favorite characters growing up, despite being the bad guy. He was highly entertaining whether it was commentating, announcing or being paired with Gorilla Monsoon or “Mean” Gene Okerlund. There will never be another Bobby Heenan and I want to say Rest in Peace and bless your soul as you’re not suffering anymore. Leave a comment below about Monday Night Raw, No Mercy or the late, great Bobby “The Brain” Heenan. Goodbye for now humanoids!!
