I know it's way early, but tonight is no ordinary party.

Yes, it is the brand's go-home show for the Royal Rumble.  But even that takes a backseat.

Tonight, Monday Night RAW will be holding its 25th Anniversary Celebration.

One of the venues hosting tonight's festivities, was home to RAW's very first show.  A small, humble venue.  But one that shaped what RAW was gonna be.




And from there, it went everywhere.  From small cities, ballrooms, and rec centers, to major metropolises, big arenas, and even into stadiums.  And RAW even went Global.  With stops in Canada, the UK, Japan, Germany, and even in Italy.

And the moments.  My my, there were a lot of them.  But to just name a few...

The Kid upsets Razor Ramon
RAW Bowl
Austin Stuns McMahon
Stone Cold confronts Iron Mike
Austin vs. McMahon
The Beer Truck
The Owen Hart Tribute Show
Bedpan McMahon
GTV
This Is Your Life (The good one)
The Dudleys put Mae Young through a table
Milk-a-Mania
Shane Buys WCW
Eric Bischoff Returns
The Reign of Terror
Trish & Lita's Main Event
Cena joining the Red Brand
RAW's Homecoming
The Fall of The Shield
Women's Revolution Kickstarts

...and many, many more.

And another one could be made tonight.  When Roman Reigns defends his Intercontinental Championship, against the returning Miz.

So in the lead-up to tonight's show, what are your favorite memories of Monday Night RAW?  And when was the first time you ever tuned in to the show?

Me?  My first time tuning in was in September 1993, and the Intercontinental Championship Battle Royal.  As for my favorite, it would be when Austin drove to the ring in a Zamboni, to interrupt the McMahon/Undertaker/Kane Championship celebration.  And then what happened to McMahon after he forced Undertaker & Kane to face off for the title.  They turned on Vince, and beat the holy crap out of him.

Enjoy tonight!

The Rock shared his favourite moment on twitter about an hour ago and naturally it was when Foley beat him for the title. That pop still brings a huge smile to my face. Incredible moment.

I'll be tuning in as much as I can between bedtime routines and such, but I'll be looking to wreddit to fill in the gaps as well. Hoping for a great time.

I swear, the Cruiserweight Championship is cursed and the wrestling gods have vowed to end 205 Live.

I hope we get the 1st ever entrance music of Raw to mark the occasion.

Which will likely be the cops coming for Enzo.

BTW, the preshow is on now on the Network.

Enjoy....I'll check out highlights later. I predict Miz will be champ again.

will we see the setup of Taker vs Cena tonight

Fuck it, it's a dream match and could be awesome

I wonder if there'll be actual wrestling going on at the Manhattan Center tonight?

John Cena heel turn tonight.

Calling it.

I was going to mess with the title , but realize I don't have that ability anymore. Fucking Call and his tyrannic views on PW , demanding full control or he was going to punch a baby kangaroo.

I hope not , RAW wasn't built on wrestling. It was built on SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT.

Rape, allegedly. He's officially suspended.

First full wrestling show I've watched since August or September? Totally out of the loop but I'll always come back for the Rumble , and RTWM.

I wonder if they'll strip Enzo of the title?

And if that's the case, could that be why Pete Dunne is being called up?

Why strip him? Let Cedric win it. Cedric is over.

I think Dunne is only here for the Rumble

Yeah because letting an alleged rapist compete and earn a paycheck makes sense as long as Cedric is over. #wrestlinglogic

Looking forward to tonight's show.

I still remember begging my parents to let me stay up late to watch the first episode. It aired on delay here in Canada in the early years.

This is a good video package song. I enjoy it very much.

Hey the first wrestling match I ever saw! 123 pinning Razor! They must of replayed it on Saturday Morning.
