21 Biggest Wrestling Stories Of 2018
21. January - Raw 25 Is Undercooked
After weeks of fervour surrounding Raw's glorious return to the Manhattan Center for its 25th birthday bash, the poppers failed to pop. The whole Raw 25 special was one drastic disappointment.
Whilst fans over in Brooklyn's Staples Center were treated to a scintillating segment as a taciturn Steve Austin stunned Vince McMahon for the umpteenth time, those across the Hudson River - who'd paid an eye-watering fee for their prestigious tickets - were left totally short-changed.
Almost none of the action emanated from West 34th Street, with those in attendance instead being served a meagre match between Bray Wyatt and Matt Hardy, a completely gibberish promo from a disinterested Undertaker, and a Revival burial at the hands of the aged D-Generation X. So long were the spells of complete boredom in Midtown Manhattan that commentators Jerry Lawler and Jim Ross were spotted napping. We all might as well have slept through the whole thing.
