10 Things You Learn Rewatching The First Ever WWE Raw Episode
3. Max Moon Actually Got An Intercontinental Title Shot
That previous entry perhaps overshadows the match, but it's important to point out that a man said to be from the future was granted an Intercontinental Title shot during Raw's first show. Max Moon, a character who looked like a reject from Power Rangers, was chosen as the ideal opponent for Shawn Michaels.
It should let you know just how good the card was that Moon vs. Michaels turned out to be the best match on there. For what it was, the action was decent. That's largely due to Shawn's growing confidence as a singles heel; in early-1993, HBK was already showing the potential to be a megastar for the WWF in years to come.
Everyone knows what Shawn Michaels would become though, so let's focus more on Max bloody Moon. The month after wrestling for the WWF's secondary championship on a brand new show, the Moon gimmick disappeared from TV and was never seen again.
His title opportunity is likely the answer to a trivia question.
