Here 19 things that we learned from RAW this week:
1) New “Then. Now. Forever.” Intro
Monday Night RAW this week kicked off with a new intro video. This featured some clips from the past and present with the text: “Then. Now. Forever” on it. It also included Hulk Hogan.
It was pretty cool to see this get an update. Here is a clip in case you missed it:

2) Stephanie McMahon Isn’t Happy With Baron Corbin
The first segment of the show was Stephanie McMahon talking to Baron Corbin backstage. Stephanie was not happy with Corbin’s actions over the past few weeks as acting General Manager.
Specifically, Stephanie is not happy with how Baron is handling the Shield. She threatened to bring Kurt Angle back if Corbin doesn’t get his act together. It was nice to see Corbin get put in his place a little bit.
Sounds like an ultimatum to us…
If Acting #RAW General Manager @BaronCorbinWWE can’t keep #TheShield in line, then @RealKurtAngle will come back from vacation sooner than expected. @StephMcMahon pic.twitter.com/eIy2lcHpbu

3) WWE Might Be Foreshadowing A Dean Ambrose Heel Turn
This week’s episode of Monday Night RAW was kicked off with the Shield. They were immediately interrupted by the Dogs of War. During this segment, Dolph Ziggler tried to break apart the Shield by stirring things up. Specifically, he told Dean that he was being underappreciated by the rest of the group.
Could this be some foreshadowing towards a Dean heel turn? This is a popular theory among fans. WWE was certainly teasing it this week. Maybe it won’t happen for a few months but this could be some great foreshadowing.
“They have EVERYTHING, and @TheDeanAmbrose, you have NOTHING!”
Is @HEELZiggler convincing The #LunaticFringe to LEAVE #TheShield?!? #RAW pic.twitter.com/rUTnM3tRz7
