A lot of rumors were flying around about what would happen this week, and in this article, we break down some of the best moments from the latest edition of RAW. The fans were loud in the arena and on Twitter, and hopefully, this edition of RAW has a higher rating than previous episodes.

Honorable Mentions

This section is dedicated to Lio Rush because of his mic abilities. The 23-year-old was absent from Super Show-Down event in Australia, but he was back this week. Although he attempted to get the crowd behind Bobby, they ended up booing him. Despite the jeers, Lashley emerged victorious over Kevin Owens. What made this match even better was that Lashley finally became a heel.

Hopefully, that will catapult him into the main event picture.

#5 No more Bella-Rousey

The Bella-Rousey combination was one of WWE's most unlikely pairings to date. Wrestling insiders and fans felt that the ring rust exhibited by the Bella twins would hold Ronda Rousey back.

After their latest match with the Riott Squad, the sisters turned on their new best friend and slammed her into the steps. This was a long time coming, and it will set up the match between Nikki Bella and Ronda Rousey at Evolution, perfectly.

#4 Hardcore Stratusfaction

Trish Stratus is a hero to many in the women's locker room, and when she came back to RAW, the fans gave her a standing ovation. Stratus wasn't the only legend making a comeback that night as the Queen of Extreme, Lita, came back and stood by her side.

Stratus and Lita chased out Mickie and Alexa Bliss indicating that the Evolution match would be a tag team match. Feels like Teddy Long was running RAW this week.

#3 Kurt Angle is back

The only Olympic gold medalist in the WWE, RAW GM Kurt Angle is back after an extended hiatus from on-screen duties, and he announced his return in a big way.

Baron Corbin once again tried to raise his profile on RAW by putting himself in a battle royale he thought he could win, but no one saw Kurt Angle coming. Angle decimated Corbin using his trademark suplexes and the Angle Slam that left the acting GM weak enough that a simple clothesline off the top rope got him eliminated.

#2 The Return of DX

D-Generation X is one of the most iconic tag teams in the WWE. Their pranks on Mr. McMahon, in-ring ability and connection with the fans made them the one of the most popular tag team of their generation.

After the Brothers of Destruction assaulted Triple H and Shawn Michaels in Australia, it was only a matter of time before the black and green came out of retirement. Triple H and Shawn Michaels will now face The Undertaker and Kane at the Crown Jewel event in Saudi Arabia.

#1 A Broken Shield

The Shield break up that everyone had been talking about finally happened and no one thought it would happen tonight.

Dean Ambrose finally walked out on his brothers after a gruelling rematch with the Dogs of War, after Ambrose was pinned by McIntyre, following the match descending into chaos. What does it mean for The Shield now that The Lunatic Fringe has left them to their own devices?
