Survivor Series is officially in the books and boy oh boy - did RAW dominate! For some odd reason, WWE chose to ignore the Kickoff show match where SmackDown Live beat RAW and only counted the main card matches.
However, even then, RAW beat SmackDown Live 6-0. We've seen the likes of last year where it was all down the line, but this was truly something else. It's safe to say that Stephanie McMahon is going to be a happy woman after what transpired.
In both the Men's and Women's match-ups, RAW won, with the controversial Nia Jax picking up the win for the women, while Braun Strowman eliminated four out of the five SmackDown Live members.
Fans are eager to know what the aftermath is. The calendar year flies by fast and we begin the build to TLC: Tables, Ladders, & Chairs and before we know it, Royal Rumble season will begin and then the road to WrestleMania.
Here's what you have to look forward to tonight on RAW.
Braun Strowman to get what he wants
Before Survivor Series, Braun Strowman was screwed out of the Universal Championship by acting General Manager Baron Corbin. A furious Strowman wanted to lay waste to Corbin, but Stephanie McMahon made a deal with him: If Braun Strowman were to lead RAW to victory at Survivor Series, he would get another Universal Championship match against Brock Lesnar. But before that, he wanted Baron Corbin.
Yesterday, Strowman cleaned house and he was then attacked by Corbin from behind after the match. Corbin then walked away with McIntyre, Bobby Lashley and Lio Rush, the former two of whom were also survivors.
It seems like they teased creating a group and a new faction with Corbin, McIntyre, Lashley & Lio Rush could be formed on RAW tonight!
Nia Jax hogs the glory enroute a RAW Women's title shot
The controversial Nia Jax was far from well-received by the Los Angeles crowd. She was the one who punched Becky Lynch, concussing her and rendering her medically unfit to compete against Ronda Rousey by the WWE Universe.
If you saw at Survivor Series in the opener, you'll find that Nia Jax, despite being the strongest competitor in the match, didn't actually do anything. She simply stood back and when the time came where it was just Sasha Banks and her vs Asuka, she chose to help Asuka eliminate Sasha Banks. Why?
So that she could hog the glory and pick up the win for RAW, becoming the sole survivor. Sasha Banks isn't one to stay back and she's definitely going to have something to say against Nia Jax.
It's likely to lead to a match, which will also most likely see Jax pick up a dominant victory and bury Banks. One thing is for sure, she's looking really strong heading into her RAW Women's title shot against Ronda Rousey.
Ronda Rousey's fallout from Survivor Series
Ronda Rousey was viciously assaulted by Charlotte Flair after their Survivor Series match. It was quite a shame because up until Charlotte DQ'd herself, the match was incredible and competitive in every sense of the word. The commentators seemed to agree that Charlotte came across like she felt she wasn't able to put Rousey away.
Rousey won't be fit to compete tonight but will she make an appearance to shoot back at Charlotte and what happened to her? Remember, she has Nia Jax up next too!
RAW dominates
RAW was absolutely dominant at Survivor Series, beating SmackDown Live in a 6-0 clean sweep. Stephanie McMahon, the commissioner is definitely going to have something to say and will most likely spend the opening 15 minutes of RAW bragging about it and rubbing the salt in the wounds.
The locker room morale has to be high after Survivor Series.
Seth Rollins has his next big challenge
Seth Rollins beat United States Champion Shinsuke Nakamura in an incredible dream match. Afterwards, Kayla Braxton revealed to Rollins that he'll be defending the Intercontinental Championship against none other than his former-brother-turned-bitter-rival Dean Ambrose.
We know Seth Rollins hasn't been a happy man of late. The night that Roman Reigns made his shocking announcement, Ambrose turned on him and hasn't said too much about it. He did, however, reveal last week that he felt he was being held back by The Shield and even burned the vest, something that even Rollins hadn't done.
With a clear path ahead of Rollins, there's no escape for Ambrose and The Architect and Lunatic Fringe are set for a major collision course. How is the unpredictable challenger Dean Ambrose going to respond? And with Nakamura behind him, will Rollins gain full focus ahead of the grudge match at TLC?
