Monday (December 26) night’s show of the WWE Raw was basically a filler show to finish the 2016 and set up the storylines for 2017. The crowd was electric just like we are used to see in the windy city of Chicago. To hype up things for next week’s inaugural edition of Raw for 2017, the WWE came up with some blockbuster announcements.
Goldberg’s return was announced for next week as he will be kicking things off for the Royal Rumble PPV. The ongoing rivalry between Brock Lesnar and Goldberg is all set to continue as per the footages released by the WWE.
Plus, another big match was announced for next week’s WWE Raw. Braun Strowman was dying to get his hands on Sami Zayn. So, he will be getting what he wants. A Last Man standing match between them was announced. Zayn was seen on the fallout show where he was brimming with confidence. He claimed he will put the big man down and finish what he started at Roadblock PPV.
The New Day were also spotted backstage after the WWE Raw went off air. They have failed to capture the Raw Tag Team championship from the Roadblock rematch. When they were asked what’s next for them, they said they are closing the year on a positive note. The Shining Stars were also seen handing out the leaflets.
Plus, check out the twitter reactions from this week’s WWE Raw:
