Raw only emanated from the Manhattan Center at first
Many editions of “Monday Night Raw,” including the debut one, were broadcast from New York City’s stunning Manhattan Centre. According to PWI Insider, Vince McMahon had a great plan for “Raw” that called for it to be set in a formal environment, giving the programme a “upscale” feel.
The Manhattan Centre did not, however, survive as a permanent location because, according to certain rumours, it was extremely difficult for spectators to access and exit the structure.
More than a thousand spectators had the option of running up eight flights of stairs or taking one of two lifts to get to the eighth floor, where the ‘Raw’ tapings were located.
A few wrestlers also voiced dissatisfaction with the expense of moving to New York City to finish tape sessions. WWE has made two more trips back to the Manhattan Centre after their initial departure: in 1997 and again for the “Raw” 25th Anniversary special in 2018.
The first ever post-Wrestle mania Raw was nothing special
Fans and media alike are quite excited for WrestleMania weekend, and this excitement has only grown since WWE switched to a two-night event. Over the past ten years, the “Raw” that follows WrestleMania has also become more and more popular.
Every week, “Raw” has a sultry crowd, aftermath from WrestleMania, and exciting newcomers and surprises. But according to Cage side Seats, the first “Raw” following WrestleMania was not nearly as thrilling as it is today.
Following a dull WrestleMania IX show, there was the first “Raw” following WrestleMania. This “Raw” was really shot before to WrestleMania IX, and it happened on April 5, 1993. Jerry “The King” Lawler’s “Raw” debut was the most noteworthy aspect. Lawler had worked for years as an announcer for WWF Superstars and had participated in the 1993 Royal Rumble alongside the territories.
\But for viewers, this was Lawler’s first time competing in the ring on “Raw.” He twice left a match against Jim Powers because the crowd was yelling “Burger King” at him. Any fan can understand what the “Raw” has become following WrestleMania after seeing this “Raw.”
The first title change happened early on
Title changes in championships don’t always occur on “Monday Night Raw.” Usually saved for pay-per-view matches, “Raw” title changes have the power to elevate an episode to legendary status. By May 1993, “Raw” had been broadcasting for around four months.
Shawn Michaels, the Intercontinental Champion at the moment, squared up against Marty Jannetty, his longtime tag team partner, on the May 13th broadcast of “Monday Night Raw” that year. Even though Jannetty’s 20-day tenure as the Intercontinental Champion was short lived, his victory over Michaels helped establish “Raw” as a prominent figure on Monday nights.
Not until Sycho Sid defeated Bret Hart to win the title on February 17, 1997, did the World Championship title change occur for the first time. The most notable alteration occurred on December 29, 1998, and was broadcast the following week.
This prerecorded “Raw” show featured The Rock vs. Mankind, with the WWF Title up for grabs, as the main event. By now, Mankind was well-liked by the public, and he had pulled off a major upset by winning his first WWF Championship from The Rock. “Raw” put some “butts in the seats” with this episode.
