The week begins and it’s time for WWE Monday Night Raw<\/strong><\/em>. The SEASON PREMIERE of Monday Night Raw<\/em>. Now, that would sound very silly to many. As WWE<\/strong> takes no real breaks. However, the nature of television sees the fall season as being the peak season for major programs. It’s when all the big shows start.<\/p>\n

So, WWE places this there too. After all, it’s when most people are watching TV. Yeah, it’s a bit silly. It’s a TV thing. But it’s also led to a rather stacked line-up for tonight. From the Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. WWE hosted Raw<\/em> here on June 30th, 2008. A rather infamous show that saw Jim Ross<\/strong> say goodbye to the WWE Raw<\/em> brand, only to be mocked by Edge<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This led to Batista<\/strong> attacking him and CM Punk<\/strong> cashing in his first Money In The Bank and winning his first of five World titles in WWE (excluding the ECW<\/strong> World title) and starting a rather uneventful run for him as Champion.<\/p>\n

TOMORROW on the SEASON PREMIERE of #WWERaw<\/a>:#TheJudgmentDay<\/a> gets their chance to reclaim the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Titles from @CodyRhodes<\/a> and Jey @WWEUsos<\/a> \ud83d\udc40\ud83d\udd25<\/p>\n
