Here are 17 things that we learned from RAW this week.
1) The ‘WWE Crown Jewel’ Event Was Officially Announced
This week’s episode of Monday Night RAW kicked off with Roman Reigns. This came less than 24 hours after his match against Braun Strowman ended in a no-contest due to Brock Lesnar’s interference. Roman was interrupted by both Braun and Baron Corbin.
Corbin announced that there will be a new WWE PPV event coming to the WWE Network. This one will be called ‘WWE Crown Jewel’ and will be taking place on November 2nd. The event will take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

2) A Big Triple Threat Match Was Announced For The Universal Championship
The main event of the ‘WWE Crown Jewel’ event will be a triple threat match for the Universal Championship. Roman Reigns will put his belt on the line against both Braun Strowman and Brock Lesnar.
Should be a fun match.

3) Drew McIntyre Defeated Dean Ambrose (Clean)
The first match of the night was between Dean Ambrose and Drew McIntyre. In a bit of surprise, this match ended with a clean finish. Drew ended up hitting the ‘Claymore’ on Dean for the win.
A big win for Drew. Did not expect this one to end cleanly. Looks like WWE has big plans for Drew.
