Have you ever thought about how it all began? How the first RAW event started? Keep reading to find out.
The first RAW event
WWE (formerly known as WWF) Monday Night RAW was first aired on January 11, 1993, for an hour. And if you watch it today, you wouldn’t be able to recognize it as a RAW event. This is because the WWF was then focusing on catering a younger audience with cartoonish, one dimensional characters. RAW’s first episode featured Yokozuna defeating Koko B. Ware, The Steiner Brothers defeating The Executioners, WWF Intercontinental Champion Shawn Michaels defeating Max Moon and The Undertaker defeating Damien Demento.
A new approach
The only wrestler who is still actively fighting in the WWE RAW events is The Undertaker. The original RAW took the televised professional wrestling by a storm, as it was a show shot to a live audience, with camera angles changing as the fight progressed. This was way different from what its predecessor, Prime Time Wrestling, did. They taped matches with studio voice covers and played them on TV.
