It was a must-see show to remember through the ages, on last night’s WWE Raw 25th anniversary. However, there were plenty more in-store once the main show was over on television. As the main show was channelised from the Barclays Center, the dark segments featured at the Manhattan Center after complaints were received from the fans at the latter-mentioned venue for fewer appearances of legends.
It was made up by an appearance of the Miz and Seth Rollins with DX, Balor Club, and the New Age Outlaws. After winning the Intercontinental Championship for the eighth time in his career, the A-lister arrived at the Manhattan Center cutting a boastful promo claiming that he owns this place.

Seth Rollins cut him off with the fans chanting for ROH. For those who don’t know, this was the place where Rollins won the ROH title, before coming to the WWE. The Miz fired back with another exciting promo to turn the crowd in his favour. But, ultimately, Rollins prevailed by delivering the Blackout Curb Stomp on The Miz.

Triple H then took control of the mic thanking the crowd for this great night. Following the DX segment, it was the turn for Ric Flair to show up inside the ring who stated that for once, he mistook the ring to be old WCW. Then he went on to shower his flattering words for DX, Scott Hall, X-Pac before taking a bow and sent the home, happily.
There was more of Stone Cold on the WWE Raw fallout show who went on a rant for the WWE interviewer Mike Rome. As reported by wrestlingINC.com, he stated that Rome was a piece of trash. Check out the further happenings during this interview,
“Austin says it feels like a big ass family reunion and he’s proud and happy to be a part of it, to deliver a can of Whoop Ass for the city to watch. Austin then rips into Rome for not having more questions ready for him. Austin calls Rome a chump and tells him to go back and do his homework. Austin wants proper interview time next time he’s back and says Rome is just out of the league.”
Matt Hardy also featured in a segment stating that he is eyeing Bray Wyatt in the Royal Rumble match. Also, the legendary Trish Stratus expressed her felling for WWE Raw 25th anniversary. Chris Jericho and the Brooklyn Brawler were also seen in the mix celebrating the moments.
