Some of the 'Legends' segments did seem a tad uninspired

Kudos to WWE for 25 years of weekly wrestling action. The company has only gone from strength to strength in the last quarter of a century, and RAW 25 was a great way to celebrate the impact the company has made in the genre of weekly television.

Nobody can doubt the fact that RAW 25 was a star-studded affair, from start to finish. One criticism of the show from fans, was that not much was done with the legends that did indeed show up. Considering the many possibilities of what could have been, it seems like a shame!

In this list, we shall encapsulate five booking options that could have elevated the show to the next level. These small touches of creativity could have made this show absolutely unforgettable.

Here are our two cents...


#5 A Shawn Michaels - AJ Styles face off

This face off alone would have been worth the price of admission

Shawn Michaels was considered to be the greatest worker of his generation. AJ Styles is considered to be the best of this current era. Fans have yearned for a clash between these two era-defining superstars for a while now. This will never happen, because Michaels is now retired.

We all know that the call of the spotlight is sometimes too hard to resist. Had WWE planned a face off between Styles and Michaels, and had the place erupted with glee, Michaels may have even considered a clash in the future. It would have served a better purpose than him burying The Revival with DX.

It would have still given the fans a moment to relish. Much like the clash between Daniel Bryan and The Miz cannot happen, until the former gets cleared, but there was a staredown anyway!

Even having the two men team up to take out a few heels would have set the Barclays Centre or Manhattan Centre on fire!
