Technical woes briefly pulled last night's WWE Raw off the airwaves.

Last night's WWE Raw ran into technical difficulties on USA Network, resulting in the live feed briefly cutting out.

This happened during a planned squash match pitting the returning Omos against a couple of enhancement talents. Unfortunately for the towering giant, the USA feed ran into problems as he was making his ring entrance, hence the following splash screen:-

Raw stayed off the air for a minute or so. When the feed returned, Omos had defeated his two opponents, who were stacked up and freshly pinned in the middle of the ring.

Per the screen above, "technical difficulties" were blamed for whatever happened to Raw's live feed.

Omos' victory came in his first televised WWE match since Raw's 8 August episode. The big man's bout on that show was another two-on-one squash, with the 28-year-old putting Andrea Guercio and Spencer Slade away in a similarly easy fashion.

Last night's Raw was largely marketed around Dominik Mysterio vs. Edge following the former's heel turn at Clash at the Castle (3 September). Edge won via disqualification when The Judgment Day's Finn Balor put hands on him, with the heel stable destroying the veteran to close the show.
