Hell in a Cell is now on the horizon as WWE presented the penultimate episode of Monday Night Raw ahead of one of the most violent pay-per-views of the year. The Bella Twins made their return to Raw as a team for the first time in three years, but it wasn't a fantastic return for Brie Bella, whilst Bobby Roode and Chad Gable became an official team.
It was another stacked episode of Monday Night Raw but as with every episode of the show, there is room for error in front of a live audience and there were many botches of note this week on Raw.
#4 It was a memorable return to Raw for Brie Bella
Next weekend at Hell in a Cell, Brie Bella teams with her husband Daniel Bryan to take on The Miz and Maryse but ahead of the show, she returned to Monday Night Raw to team with her sister Nikki against The Riott Squad.
Nikki Bella didn't miss a step in the ring despite not being seen since The Royal Rumble back in January, but the memorable moments in the match came from Brie Bella who didn't enjoy her suicide dives. The first she attempted was obviously supposed to be blocked by Sarah Logan, who was late on her punch.
The second was all on Brie as she fell from the ring and didn't appear to have any trajectory on her dive at all as she hit the floor and completely missed both Logan and Ruby Riott. This obviously wasn't the return to the ring that Brie was hoping for when she woke up this morning.
#3 Seth Rollins breaks the police van window
The Shield had an interesting week on Raw since they were arrested for attempting to extract revenge on Braun Strowman, Drew McIntyre, and Dolph Ziggler, but were able to negotiate their release from custody in order to return at the end of the show to save Finn Balor from a beatdown.
Sadly for The Shield, the entire locker room which was lead by Kevin Owens then attacked the three men and whilst Dean Ambrose was being assaulted on the announce table and Braun Strowman was attacking Roman Reigns with the steel steps, Seth Rollins was thrown off the stage and into the side of the police van which led to the window then smashing and Rollins cutting his arm.
The brawl seemed to halt whilst the referees checked on Rollins and then when they were given approval, they were able to continue the beat down.
#2 The stage crew once again got in the way
There are many people behind the scenes that make Monday Night Raw a reality and sometimes they are seen on WWE TV when they aren't actually supposed to. As part of Bobby Roode's entrance this week on Raw, the stage crew were seen running backstage after Roode's lights came up and then his rotator plate seemingly stopped spinning.
Luckily, Roode and Chad Gable went on to win their first match as a team over The Ascension, but it's hard to overlook the way the two men made their way to the ring, which shows just how far Roode has fallen.
#1 What is a legal tag?
Dana Brooke interestingly teamed with Ember Moon this week on Raw as they took on The Boss 'N' Hug Connection, but it was a terrible night for Dana as Titus O'Neil and Apollo Crews seemingly cost her the match when they were too busy shouting different things at her from ringside.
To add to her rough night, Dana tried to tag herself into the match, but her blind tag went unnoticed by the official and she was then forced to ask Ember to get back into the ring so that she could tag into the match legally.
What makes Sting special? His first AEW opponent opens up RIGHT HERE.
