10 Times Wrestlers Hijacked WWE Raw

Pipebombs, This Is Your Life and the Attitude Era running wild!

Since the beginning of 1993, Monday Night Raw has been the flagship program in the World Wrestling Federation/World Wrestling Entertainment. Over the years, the show has been witness to many of the biggest names to ever work in the pro wrestling industry, and has provided fans with countless hours of memorable matches and moments. Often, some of the most entertaining segments have also been the most wacky and 'out there'. WWE relies on strong performances to drive the non-wrestling narrative of each episode of the show, something which has led to the incredible skits featured on this very list. On the most recent edition of the show, Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson came out of nowhere to deliver one of the most unpredictably exciting portions of Raw in quite some time. Analysing the history of the program reveals that there have been similar 'takeover' moments, ones which only made the shows they are featured on more impactful overall. This article features stars as huge as Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair and Steve Austin, but also some names who may not necessarily be household names in the grand scheme of things. Regardless of this, they did play some part in unbelievable television, hijacking Monday Night Raw and enthusing the audience.
