Summary

Roman Reigns opened RAW with the announcement that he will be surrendering the Universal Championship since his leukemia has returned. This was the first time Roman had gone public with his diagnosis. His first encounter with the disease was 11 years ago. Danielle and Hal discuss their reactions to the news, including why it affected them personally, their hopes for Roman’s return and what this means for a Monday Night RAW and WWE that now has to move forward without their biggest full-time star. Plus, the pair will discuss the lackluster build to Evolution. The booking has been slipshod and lackluster for the past several months. Outside of the novelty of a brand new women’s only event, WWE hasn’t done much to get people excited about this show. Add in the fact that it’s happening so close to Crown Jewel, which won’t include any women and will still air from Saudi Arabia, and it’s hard to take the “women’s evolution” seriously these days. The Three Count Danielle put over Asuka and Naomi’s fun moment in the Mixed Match Challenge. Julian put over Samoa Joe’s well wishes to Roman Reigns. Hal put over Dean Ambrose’s supporters after his heel turn. Hosted by Danielle Radford and Hal Lublin. Produced by Julian Burrell for Maximum Fun.
