5 Botches, slip ups, and outrageous moments from WWE Raw April 3rd, 2017
While this is the point where exhaustion should be kicking in, it can’t be because Raw after WrestleMania has come. This was a night that overall lived up to its rowdy hype. The Orlando crowd had every reason to be wild because they got to see Kurt Angle assume the role of the new General Manager, the call ups of The Revival to further ignite the Monday tag division, and the return of the first Universal Champion, Finn Balor. Finn took a kayfabe injured Chris Jericho’s spot in the main event tag team match.
With all of this excitement came many moments that could also be filed under the “outrageous” category. Some of this includes when the crowd took over the show on several occasions (once with a beach ball), when Sheamus showed some sketchy execution on a move that even a commentator remarked on its ugliness, and when Bill Goldberg watched as one of his family members slipped right onto their rear end while jumping over the barrier around the ring. All of these moments have been preserved via gif for you to watch over and over again.
So without any more delay, here are the 5 botchiest and most outrageous moments from the Raw after WrestleMania 33.
#5 He’s not that bad
The Roman Reigns hate has reached new heights of outrageousness on Raw. The Big Dog opened up Raw with an 8+ minute promo that consisted of only 5 words: “This is my yard now.”
The reason this incredibly short address to the Raw crowd took so long was because of the vicious hazing they were giving him. Vulgarities were audible to the at-home audience as they screamed “Fudge you Roman” and “Shut the fudge up,” chants that I’m obviously editing for content.
There was even this ridiculous “Roman is worse that polio” sign, which is equally as hilarious as it is untrue. This was almost as outlandish as the infamous “Roman is a Holocaust denier” sign from WrestleMania just one day prior.
