10 greatest Raw moments in history

#8 Nexus debuts

When NXT first started in 2010, it was a reality show where rookies would team up with pros and compete in contests. It didn’t really captivate the fans. The winner of the first season was Wade Barrett.

Following his win, Barrett and the rest of the rookies showed up on Raw during the main event match between John Cena and CM Punk, all wearing matching arm bands with an “N” on them. They would go on to ambush everyone in sight as they tore up the WWE ring. They even attacked the announcers and cameramen. The fans couldn’t believe what they were witnessing, and this gave rise to one of the best Raw moments.

If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
