Hello everyone welcomes to wrestling unseen live coverage of today’s Raw Show, Raw begins with a tribute to Pat Patterson, who recently passed away.
RAW kick-off show started by Randy Orton when he goes out in the ring. As he arrives, scenes of his participation in A Moment of Bliss are repeated last week. Randy says there’s no limit to holding him back, and no matter if Bray owns a mask or not, when the time comes he’ll look the demon in the eye and show who he is. He talks about the Firefly Funhouse, and Bray Wyatt responds from there.
“I’m the last person you want to play with, Bray, ” threatens Randy. But Bray takes advantage of that to turn his show into a game show. The puppets, Mercy, Huskys, and Ramblin, respond to how I should punish Randy. Wyatt says none of them responded correctly, and it gets serious. “Unfortunately for you, he always has the answer,” he says. Orton issuing a fight tonight with Bray Wyatt tonight, not The Fiend, whom he’ll see on TLC. Bray accepts excitedly and greets by closing his space.
