"Tyson and Austin! Tyson and Austin!"

At the tail-end of 2018, Vince McMahon, Stephanie, Shane and Triple H all stood in the ring on Raw and promised a better product. Those assurances took a while to get going, but nobody can argue with the past few weeks of TV. There are new faces, better angles to keep programming motoring along and now some cliffhanger endings like the one from Monday.

For the first time in a long time, fans have some positive questions before next week's show. Why did Batista hammer Ric Flair? Will he challenge Triple H at WrestleMania? How the hell does the guy look so good for a 50-year old dude? Seriously though, such suspense and drama is welcome on a program that, until recently, was dire.

It's like a throwback to days of yore.

There was a time when such thrilling endings were the law on Monday nights, and we're not just talking the much crowed about Attitude era either. As recently as 2014, WWE's flagship was going off the air with blood-pumping tension and mystery.

This a celebration of the best cliffhangers in Raw history...
