3 Big surprises we got on tonight's Raw
After last week's show completely changed the landscape of the road to WrestleMania, tonight's edition of Monday Night Raw was expected to come up with some much-needed answers.
The show left some of the burning questions from last week up in the air, but ended up giving us three huge surprises as we moved forward with the show of shows on the horizon.
Let's take a look at these three exciting progressions that fans got to witness on Raw.
#3. Charlotte vs Becky is set for Fastlane
WWE did the unthinkable on Monday Night Raw much to the fans' utter amazement.
The WWE Universe was expecting that Charlotte would be handed the title by the McMahons, or Ronda would come back to get what was rightfully hers. Nothing of this sort happened though.
Stephanie came out to the ring and announced that Becky's suspension was being lifted as the fans cheered. She added that since Ronda disrespected the title and was effectively out of the title scene!
Becky vs Charlotte was announced at Fastlane for the Raw Women's title. It's almost a lock that Ronda will come back at Fastlane and interrupt the match, leading to the title becoming vacant. The main event of WrestleMania 35 could possibly be a triple threat match for the vacant Women's title.
Later on in the night, a disgruntled Ronda came back and attacked Charlotte and Becky, finally turning heel in the process. Ronda took her title back from Stephanie, leading to Stephanie making the match at Fastlane a traditional one-on-one bout, with Becky losing her Mania spot in case she loses.
#2. Triple H delivers a promo for the ages
Even though Batista didn't come out to explain his dastardly actions last week, he addressed the fans and Triple H via satellite.
Triple H went on to give one of the greatest promos in recent history, as he referred to Ric Flair with his real name, Richard Fliehr. In a hilarious moment amidst all the tension, Triple H reminded the fans that he was present in at least a few of Ric Flair's weddings.
Things turned emotional pretty quickly as The Game mentioned Ric burying his own son Reid, and how hard it was for him. He mentioned Ric going into a coma last year and Hunter being afraid of receiving a call, in fear of hearing about Ric's demise. The Cerebral Assassin berated Batista on being a coward who attacked a 70-year old man in order to get his attention.
It's almost official now: The Game and The Animal would be facing each other in one of the biggest grudge matches in recent memory.
