September 14, 201411 yr Author comment_5624705 RAW starts off with hilarious celebratory music, confetti, balloons ... the whole shebang. The entire roster is summoned to the ring and wow do I hate it when they do that. Still, this was the first time so it's not as bad here. Vince announces that Survivor Series will have a one-night tournament to crown a new champion. Vince tells Austin if he ever comes into a WWF arena again, he'll have to buy a ticket. Vince says it was BETTER THAN SEX to fire Austin. He said let that be a warning to everyone in the ring to never cross the boss. Austin shows up on the Titantron and has a gun!
October 29, 201410 yr comment_5636574 I adore gloating Vince so much as the celebration was over the top and you could hear the gleam he had in the better than sex line. The build to Survivor Series starts with Vince announcing the one night tournament.
September 15, 20169 yr comment_5768195 I don't mind the roster being here, since Vince's tournament announcement pertained to a healthy chunk of them. Austin 3:16 is now a collector's item: the new expression to sweep the globe is McMahon 3:16--I've Got the Brass to Fire Your Ass! We cut to commercial on a cliffhanger as Austin is suddenly seen live outside the arena, in the hunting gear he talked about the previous night. This is the start to one truly bizarre Raw, one of the most Russoriffic to this point, but even with this goofy set-up, shit's still building logically on things that happened before and it's clear that there's some semblance of long-term planning in the main events.
