Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Jordan Huie of the Overtimer and I am here to give you the live recap and results from the night’s show as it is going down! As I type this, Monday Night Raw is in progress, we just saw the first twenty minutes of the show, and the first match of the night has come and gone. I’ll be giving you the scoop on everything WWE Raw tonight!
Our opener was a unique little bout which saw Kevin Owens take on Mojo Rawley in a Christmas Street Fight – which honestly was not at all Christmassy, and was much more like a bitter grudge match! Which is honestly fine by me! It does after all come following Mojo baiting Owens into slapping him and nailing a stunner on him a couple of weeks ago. So he wanted a shot at him and got it in the form of this surprisingly hard hitting, but fairly brief No DQ match.
You can see an excerpt of my recap of this match below:
Mojo takes Owens up onto the top rope! Pursues, wants a big superplex! Chairs are kinda far away here… Owens rakes the eyes to make him fall… but Mojo grabs him by the jaw, tosses him off the top rope and he lands viciously into the chairs! Nearfall. Can’t believe he took a bump like that in a match like this. Mojo hits the ropes, charges right into a superkick! Owens up top, Senton for a nearfall! Owens goes out and gets the table once again, slides it into the ring! Manages to set it up this time around. But Mojo takes him up onto his shoulders! Owens escapes, Stunner! Looks out into the crowd, who clearly still want that table spot! Owens pulls Mojo up, throws him to the ropes, Pop-Up Powerbomb puts him through the wood! Covers him with his knee in his face, that’s that!
Winner: Kevin Owens
Owens of course won and won fairly decisively in the end, but Mojo did atleast get to have a pretty damn good match first with some surprising spots!
